Awesome so far!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ive only had these headphones for about two weeks, but I use them every day! I really like them— theyre comfortable, light, and have cool features. I downloaded the app that they recommended, and with that the headphones basically track my movement and adjust the noise cancellation accordingly. I think that is really neat!! The sound quality and the volumes are also really good. Also, I wish I paid attention more but these are NOT water resistant. Makes me nervous to wear them in the rain, but have been able to avoid that anyway!

The custom settings are also very helpful in day-to-day life.

Not bad
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not bad headphones, sound quality is excellent for a non-audiophile. Noise cancellation works a charm, I can usually wear these for a couple of hours before I need to rest my ears. They sit a little tight on my head even with adjustment, but it’s not unbearable. Bluetooth is quick and easy to connect. Included case is rigid, do not over-torque the headphones when putting away in the case, I feel like it could be an easy failure point. Overall not bad. If you see them on sale I’d recommend picking them up.

Sony has an awesome winner here!!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely ones of the best pair of Active Noise Canceling headphones I ever have had the -pleasure of using. USB-C charging so I can use the same charger as my other more modern devices. Built in Microphone with Filtering for great call clarity. Awesome battery life, even with the ANC active.

Good Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When you first get them, they take 3 hours to charge. It is nice that there is a voice that says whether they are on or off if you don't want to look at the code of lights blinking at you. They are definitely grey. Silver to me implies some level of metallic color. They are just a matte grey. I got these cancel out bass music and domestic disputes from my obnoxious neighbors. They do a really great job doing that. There is a point at which they no longer cancel out the bass noise by merely being on without any additional audio being piped in. The case they come in is nice and hardy. Bluetooth pairing them with my phone was super easy. I would definitely buy these again. Would that they just came in more interesting colors than black and grey.

Incredible sound cancelling

Better than expected
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Glad I purchased these headphones. First thing I noticed about them is that they are lighter than I expected but still good quality material and the sound quality is great especially with the different EQ settings. The noise cancellation and the acuracy with the touchpad features ambient sound control is impressive. The pressure on the earpads is not too bad and the earcups have a soft memorylike foam which is comfortable and doesn't seem to make my ears too hot after a while of wearing them. The optimizer does seem to help make the earcups feel a little more natural when wearing them. I got this as a gift for my other half and wanted to test it before giving it to him for Christmas. I'm honestly thinking of investing in a pair for myself. It also really helps with studying and writing reports when there is a lot of noise in the house. The 2 way pairing also seems to be useful when I'm on the phone and using my laptop at the same time and decreases the hassle of having to switch back and fourth as I have experienced with earbuds. The charging cable that came with it is a bit too short but can always use a longer cable so it's not a problem. It takes a bit to get used to the touchpad swiping motions but It didn't take me too long to find certain ways to swipe without much hassle. It also seems to have a good grip on my head as my head is pretty small but I'm glad i can move around and not feel like it's going to fall off. The mic quality seems to be good. However, if the headphones are in a certain angle such as if you were to lay down while on a call, it seems muffled but headphones aren't really meant to be used when laying down so it's not too much of an issue. Otherwise, I think these headphones were worth purchasing so far. I also love how it comes with a hardshell case to carry the foldable headphones and the different cables that come with it which is an extra plus.

Great buy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is one of the best headphones you can get right now, it is on the pricier side, which I should probably give 4 stars for. But the ANC and comfort and sound quality makes this an incredible purchase.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My daughter wanted one and then I bought one about a week later. Yes they are expensive hence why the best buy credit card came in handy. I have always been a Bose kinda girl and never even tried Sony. EVER! I am not even a fan of the look but I am taking continuing education at the college and I like to study in the campus center and that place is so loud. The students are always yelling and while the amount of people help me stay focused the noise does not. These headphones are amazing they knock out all the noise. The really fun part is when you go to talk the music stops and you can hear the other people without having to remove them

The Best
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I swear by these headphones. I'm really bad at taking care of things, i've thrown these around so much especially since I work in a warehouse and move around so much they've definitely hit the ground a lot. I needed these because everything is so loud I rather listen to music. Plus they get really dirty so i wipe them cleaned every night and they still work through everything I put them through! The best part is the battery life I always get surprised when they tell me theyre going to die because it seems like I hardly charge them lol. If they ever stop working im pretty sure i'd just but another pair of these.

Great sound and battery life
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound and battery life seems good even after over a year of daily use. Wish I would have gone up to next model where you can connect to 2 Bluetooth and switch between. Only complaints are that when charging and using 3.5mm jack there is some feedback, and the rest pieces didn't allow much breathing for long use.
