Worth the Price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was skeptical on spending a high price for these but they were definitely worth it. The connect seemlessly with all my bluetooth devices. The app to manage which devices I can connect to is also really helpful for when I need to switch between devices. The noise canceling feature is also top notch. It's helpful for when I'm watching TV and I could just drown out the noise in the background. Highly recommend getting these headphones if you're in need for something more premium.

Great! But not with my Samsung tv.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have to give these headphones 5 stars because they are spectacular for listening to music compared to what I had been used to. I can hear the music clearly and brilliantly while in the next room the clothes dryer is on and the gardners are mowing the back lawn. My great disappointment is that I got these headphones to improve my tv watching experience, but sadly, Samsung and Sony help desks could not solve problems when I paired these with my tv, and I am unable to resolve this incompability problem. So I can't use them for the purpose I bought them.

Save some time, just go w these
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound quality, completely customizable eq/settings via app, and above average/great noise cancelling. I've been through a few sets of headphones and I think I have finally found 'the pair'. I have tried/returned Sennheiser Momentum 3 (the best sound quality, but way over active cutting out/pausing due to 'headphone removed' functionality - even when they hadn't been removed); Bose QC45 (very thin sound profile, otherwise nice headphone); and these. The sound quality is comparable to the Sennheisers, the comfort and noise cancelling are comparable to the QC45. This set really is the best available at this price point - save some time, just go w these.

Great sounding headphone set.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good quality head set at an even better price. Using these as a replacement for the headset the dog ate. Great sound quality. The only downside so far is the limited talk time of about 3 hours, but these were never meant to be a headset to begin with. Great for going on a walk or just listening to Pandora though.

Comfort, noise canceling, and quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Download Sony Headphone Connect App, open box, turn on headphones (bottom of left headphone on/off switch), using Sony Connect App, connect and paired new headphones. - My headphones were 100% charged out of box. - Many features in Sony Connect App, matter of your preference and use. I do think the app is solid and useful for my use of these headphones. - My headphones firmware updated automatically -be patient, process took several minutes. Initial impression; very comfortable, really good noise canceling and sound quality. - Voice clarity on both ends is outstanding. - Easily connected two iPhones, my experience switching between them was seamless. - Used ear profile in-app feature to analyze my ear shape for 360 Reality Audio setup.

Quality at a price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really good sound quality. Clear and crisp sound. The best part is the noise canceling. Noise-canceling stops automatically if someone nearby or you start talking. However, one time I was listening to music, and suddenly there was no sound for no apparent reason even though the headset was connected and the music was running on YouTube music. When I disconnected the Bluetooth, I could hear the music playing on my laptop. So I had to restart the headphones and reconnect to the Bluetooth to get it to work again. This only happened once though. Comes with different sets of connectors. Can be used on long flights for noise canceling or watching movies.
