Really great headphones
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound and functions! If I were to change anything it would be to swap plastic with aluminum and get rid of the touch gestures as they can get in the way and be a little hard to get down in memory.

Highly Recommend
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.these are the best headphones i have ever had. there’s a bit of a pressure feeling (like if your on a plane) when you put them on due to the noise cancellation. Saying that the noise cancellation is a 10 out of 10. only con in the touch sensors aren’t sensitive enough so it’s a bit hard to pause,skip, lower volume,etc. p.s. i also don’t think there’s not much of a difference between these and the m5. these are better price for same awesome quality .

Worth the upgrade from the WH-1000XM2's
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I finally upgraded from the WH-1000XM2's and the difference between the two models is greater than i had thought. First, Sony continues to enhance the incredible sound quality from previous generations of the product line. The construction of the headphones feels much more secure and solid as compared to the older generations which often broke near the headband. The slimmer headphones also appear to be noticeably less bulky on my head while being worn.

Great for kids with autism!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased for 15 year old daughter with autism. Noises bother her and affect her life negatively. She heard about these online and begged us to get them for her. Without hesitation we did so and it has been a great purchase. She can ride in car, go out in public and restaurants without being over stimilated now.

Good headphone
