Don’t Sleep On These
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound! These are so underrated. The Sony headphones are excellent without all of the flash. While they’re expensive, the investment in this product is more in sound and tech vs. the look. I’ve owned Beats and these are hands down much better than any headphones I’ve ever listened to.

BEST HEADPHONES
||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 everrrrr owned. Although I kind of regret buying the headphones in black and I wished I should've bought them in silver. Anyways it doesn't matter the quality and sound of these headphones are amazing! I also enjoyed the noise-canceling option, I can finally stop hearing my upstairs neighbors from doing a ton of noise.

Don't fly without them!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These have helped tremendously in long flights, especially when babies are on board. If you turn on the noise canceling and put ear plugs or the air plane ear buds underneath, you won't be able to hear anything.

Posted .Hi NikG, we're glad you like the sound quality of our product! We're sorry to hear that you have an issue using the headphones on the gym. As it turns out, the headphones aren't quite designed for sports. To prevent the unit from falling, adjusting the headband and the earpads properly can help for a firmer hold and better noise canceling experience.

Good but not Great
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good but not great. The bass is hands down really good. The mids I can’t seem to get down to my taste but highs are good. Overall they do provide a good sound experience. The app is ok because of the equalizer but aside from that it sucks. The dual device connection is crap. They sometimes connect without any problems but 8 out of 10 times it doesn’t connect. Sometimes it says the headset connects to my iPhone but the app will say it’s not. I have to delete all connections and start all over. Overall on sale they’re worth the buy. Full retail...wouldn’t recommend.

Currently, these are the best I've used
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've tried various models/brands of noise cancelling headphones, and these are the best overall. The NC works really well, the audio is really good, including bass delivery without crushing the mids. I think these are a bit better than the v3 in sound, and maybe a little in NC, but the differences are not huge. These seem to have less of a plastic "creak" when handling than the v3.

Shouldn't Have Had to Buy but Product is Great
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'd actually purchased same item 10/31 and then saw Black Friday sale - sadly wasn't allowed to price match so forced to return 1st pair only to buy same again but $100 less. GREAT headphones, though. Excellent sound & great noise cancelling. Sorry to waste employee time returning and restocking but wasn't letting a $100 savings go.
