The ultimate NC headset
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was in the market for a noise cancelling headset. I tried the Bose qc45 but it wasn’t as strong. I tried the XM5 and I wasn’t a fan of them either, it honestly seemed like a step down. Finally I went with the XM4 and I do not regret the change. Great bass and even better NC. I was working and heard nothing around me. Some have even used them to mow the lawn. That’s how strong the noise cancellation is.

amazing
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.f you are looking for noise cancelation at its best, don't look elsewhere and buy this immediately. Of all the comments that have been said about being not enough this, not able to do that, I think they are all untrue or either an unlucky manufacturing defect. Launch products are not perfect from the start, it's bound to happen. The only thing I do not use are the microphones for making calls, so you can check online and see for yourself about that aspect.

Amazing headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These Sony headphones will definitely enhance your music experience. While I am not an audiophile, I do know what I like and these headphones deliver an amazing sound. I have owned a pair of Bose soundlink wireless headphones for the past 6 years, and while they sound good, the Sony headphones are by far more superior in sound quality. To be fair, the Bose headphones are not noise canceling like the Sony headphones; however, when I am listening to music in a quiet room in the house, the Sony headphones win hands down!

Best Headphones 2020
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing headphones. But I also upgraded from LogiTech ones, so I was bound to like them. I mean every one already knows that they are the best sound quality and noise cancellation out there. But I wanted to talk about other features, it can connect to multiple bluetooth sources of audio, so you could go from listening to music on your phone to attending a meeting on your pc seamlessly. This feature is pretty good for me, since I work from home. Also picking up calls on the phone, the microphone is amazing.
