||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones come with a lot of window dressing but as far as I'm concerned the sound is pretty generic. I will say they are nicely put together and have a nice fitted hard case but that's about it for the price. A lot of bells and whistles but seem to have neglected how they sound which is really what matters most. No real bass to speak of even using the equalizer on the app. The swipe controls on the right headphone were hit or miss. Even though I tried and tried to navigate them. If your priority on buying wireless headphones is noise cancellation than maybe these will work for you but if you are into music you can feel these might not be for you even at the sale price. I returned them as maybe the pair I had were defective. I wasn't having a second go around of disappointment. However, I will say I love Sony products just not this one. I ended up buying a lower tier pair of Sony headphones that did have extra bass that you could control with the app as well as noise cancelling. All around great sound. Not just a bunch of novelty features. Swipe control features works like a charm. And to top it off I caught them at a black Friday price and put a lot of money back in my pocket. Good Luck!

Posted .Hi SKEL,
We're glad that you like the design and supplied case of the headphones. It's unfortunate that the sound quality and touch controls didn't live up to your expectations. It is recommended to use your index finger when controlling the touch sensor. Having the latest software version of the headphones (updated through the Sony Headphones Connect app) will provide optimum performance and might have changed your experience.
Sony takes all feedback seriously. Rest assured that this will help us improve the quality and performance of our products. We hope your other Sony headphones will continue to provide you with excellent performance. Thanks for sharing your review and for choosing Sony.
