Best looking headphones
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As a college student, I have used these headphones almost every day walking from class to class as well as studying. They have the best sound and bass you'll find in any other headphone and they also work extremely well when working out. My favorite thing about them is that they are stylish. A lot of other headphones stick out and look too big on your head but these are slim and work amazing.

Best headphoene
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Can't believe how this headphone beat the beats headphone and probably other headphones. To get most of it download the Sony headphone connect where you can adjust the equalizer of your choice and other features. It truly has the best noise-canceling, unique hand motion control like, just cover the right side with your hand and noise-canceling will deactivate and when set to stop music when you are talking it will stop for a while depends on how you set it. May set it to auto-off when you removed it from your head and the best part of it when on cord mode it does not consume batteries, unlike other headphones. Best sound wireless so far I'd tried and definitely recommend this product.

Wanna drown out your office and focus on work?
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great for a noisy workplace! I wear glasses and have a huge head and these do not cause pain after extended period of wearing. I wear them throughout most of the day and have to charge after every third or so. The quality of the sound is very nice although I am no hi fi expert. But these are definitely the nicest pair of head phones I now own. I was previously using some Bose over the ear head phones and they were okay but old and didn’t have noise cancelling which is what I wanted. The blue is a really elegant dark hue and was hesitant that I didn’t get black but seeing them in person I have no more quarrel with that. The price isn’t too bad for what they are.

Very solid headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall I'm quite happy with these headphones. Sound quality is excellent and can be tailored to your individual preferences using the Sony headphones app. They are smooth sounding and can get plenty loud. The noise cancelation is simply superb and also adjustable via the app. Comfort is also top notch. No issues wearing them for extended period of time. I wish Sony had included AptX support, but it's not a big deal. The only negatives are that they've shut off twice without prompting (while listening), and I can't use the highest bandwidth setting for LDAC without the sound cutting in and out with my Samsung S10+. This is fixed by using a lower bandwidth setting which is fine. Love these headphones.

Best Active Noise Cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These have way better active noise cancelling than my prior pair of Soundcore Q45 ANC headphones as well as a longer battery life. That being said the sound quality is exactly the same, so if you're hesitant about spending this much on a pair of headphones they're an amazing alternative.

MX4 review

The color was even better in person, and the packaging was great. Can't wait to see the XM6

The Last Headphones You'll Ever Buy
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use these every day. I sit, walk and workout while wearing them and can wear them up to 4-6 hours. They can get a little warm when doing cardio, but any over-ear headphones will have that result. I've even dropped them a few times and haven't had any issues. They're the highest quality headphones on the mass market and I'm more than likely going to purchase the earbud version of these. The app integration is seamless for controlling levels & details (both on apple and android.) You can plug them in the aux or bluetooth it up, either way the sound is clear no matter what. Love these.

My Absolute Favorite
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got them as a Christmas gift and they were so perfect for me. I had a lot of compliments while wearing them. They are really comfortable to wear in any kind of weather, wouldn't recommend working out in these, they slip out of your head pretty easily, but overall these work amazingly well. The noise cancellation is really good. Definitely worth the price.
