Great headphone with just one flaw
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you are planning to use this headphone mostly on a Windows machine please take a note that you cant use LDAC on Windows and iOS devices. While on iOS devices AAC format creates good sound, they have omitted the aptX so the sound code is limited to a very old SBC format on Windows. I am not an audiophile myself but can hear some sound differences between my Windows machine (SBC) and iPhone (AAC). I didn't know this when bought the item, and if I knew probably look somewhere else. But, I can't say I am 'that' disappointed, the product is great and the battery life is really good.

Amazing Headphones
||Posted .

Love them

The music sounds so incredibly clear and I like that I’m able to custom the listen quality to my liking. My only issue with these is they take a while to connect to my phone but I believe that’ll stop over time since they’re still pretty new.

Sony Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the sound form these headphones. I’ve used my husbands Bose Quiet Comforts in the past, and wanted my own noise canceling headphones. Besides just great sound, you have touch options and they also come with the old school airline adapter. Even with Bose being high end, they don’t give you an adapter. I like that these came in blue as well as the more basic black and silver options. No regrets at all buying these.
