    They work great and the noise cancelling is exactly what I needed. My only issue is that they do hurt my ears after a couple hours. Also, I wish that instead of tapping the sides to change the settings, it was a button because it's easy to accidentally change settings.

      Hi Saturn1998, Thank you so much for the 4-star rating! We are so glad to hear that you are happy with the noise cancelling and overall performance of the headphones! You may be experiencing a symptom called listener fatigue. That is where your eardrums work hard to manage the volume that flows through your ear canal. The louder the volume, the bigger the strain on your eardrums, which then causes the feeling of fatigue.Try lowering the volume or take a break from wearing them for a while. Thank you so much for choosing Sony! -Carl Sony_US
