Pricey but worth it
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these for back to school since I’m a college student and I need something that is noise cancellation and has long lasting battery. I use it to listen to recorded lectures as well as music when studying. I guess the only con I have is that I still can’t figure out how to connect it to both my laptop and iPhone and be able to make an easy transition from either devices.

best form factor for sony headphones
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.some of the best headphones money can buy. I like this model better than the later ones as it had a thicker headband which is comfy for bald people. cant wear the new ones without head pain. Sony please think of this for the XM7s this form factor was much better. the drivers in the xm3 sound the best for bass but somehow these still sound better than xm5 or xm6 they are trying to make them smaller but ruining the bass in the process.

XM4's are great! (If cash isn't an issue)
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely incredible headset! Separates instruments well, can handle some bass, great and full sound, very good noise canceling. Noise canceling is best when playing a little higher than 50% volume, and truly helps you disconnect a little bit.

Awesome headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the best noise canceling that I have ever had.
