The functions available during a call may vary depending on the profile supported by your smartphone or mobile phone.

Posted .Hi Lemm, good to know that you like the noise canceling function of the headphones. You can hear ambient sounds through the microphones embedded in the left and right units of the headset while enjoying music. You can change the settings of the Ambient Sound Mode by connecting the smartphone (with the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app installed) and the headset via Bluetooth connection. Voice focus: Unwanted noise will be suppressed while announcements or people’s voices are picked up, allowing you to hear them as you listen to music. Hope this helps. Thanks for choosing Sony. ~Ralph

Improvement over the xm3s
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are a huge improvement over the xm3s. They feel a bit more comfortable and the simultaneous pairing to 2 devices is amazing. The call quality is still subpar but it seems that is an issue with song headphones and earbuds.
