Clearest headphones I've ever heard.
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the best headphones I've ever owned. I have a pair of Bose QC headphones, and the clarity of sound from the Sony is far better. The noise-cancelling is also better on the Sony. I do find the headphones are bit sensitive to touch for the the controls, but once I get them set right they are phenomenal.

Roku soundbar & LG TV
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the sound quality. They hook up easily to my Roku soundbar and LG tv. My complaint is that they do not easily switch from tv to phone if I get a call while watching. Very disappointing feature but I basically use them for my tv so it isn’t a dealbreaker.

Better than the previous
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Definitely when getting these I was a sceptical but honestly I don't regret the purchase. Definitely a huge improvement with the noise cancellation than the xm3. Also the ability to use no with just one but two Bluetooth devices is a plus for me since I do tend to use it with my phone and laptop. Also the comfortably has improved for the ears. Great product! Thanks Sony!

Me likey
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the design. Love the sound quality. But if you love deep base and loud music they arent as loud as the QC 45’s. Although, they do have a cleaner sound… Overall great but definitely think about the what type of listening you’ll be doing. Also the touch remote is annoying sometimes but thats just me

Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve owned several Bose headphones and these are as good if not better than any I have used. I’m not sure what I think of the touch controls over other headphones I’ve used, but these are very comfortable with a long battery life and great sound. All that said, I think you can’t go wrong with these or Bose. Just go with whichever you prefer.

Ah Quiet From the Father-In-Laws room
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My father-in-law is staying with us and is a bit hard at hearing, so we got these headphones for him. We have them paired with an AppleTV and they work great. Take them off and it pauses the TV for him as well. The sound automatically goes to the headphones when they are turned on, returns to the TV when you turn them off.

Great Noise Cancelling Headphone.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great noise cancelling headphones that didn't produce any pressure like other ones I have used so I'm able to wear them for extended hours. I also like the added feature of the software so you can tailor the sound to how you like it. I found pairing the headphones with multiple devices easy and worked without issue.

Great noise canceling!
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones. The noise canceling is really great, I have young children and my one kid has a squeal that will split your ear drums. I put these babies on and tho I can still hear his squeal that rivals Mariah Carey’s highest octave range, it’s so much more bearable! Aside from that, the Sony app that comes with it is pretty cool I like to use it to change some settings. I think there’s definitely some quirks to it but overall great noise canceling comfortable and light headphones I highly recommend.

Great Cans
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones. The sound is great although not the best bass. They are so comfortable I can wear them for hours without feeling pressure on my ears. I really like the easy controls for skipping tracks or replaying ones I especially like. Raising or lowering volume is a snap. Of course not struggling with a cord is nice. I highly recommend.

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.
