Pretty good, not my fave
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They’re ok. I don’t feel like the sound is all people say it is. Also neither is the noise cancellation. To be fair, it didn’t pair well with my old iPhone and I think that was part of the reason. Also they feel a little flimsy

Posted .Hi Tech4U,
We're glad that you like the sound quality and noise canceling function of the headphones. It'unfortunate that you are not having a complete experience because of its call quality and ambient sound function. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Make sure to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app) for optimum performance.
Depending on the surrounding environment, wind noise may increase when the Ambient Sound Mode is turned on. In that case, cancel the voice focus with the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app. If the wind noise is still significant, turn off the Ambient Sound Mode.
For call quality, re-establish the connection between the headphones and your source device. Select HFP or HSP for the profile. You can also check the settings of the app that you are using for mic sensitivity if available.
Hope this improves your experience. Thanks for sharing your review and for choosing Sony!
