Great ANC headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphones sound great to me, but the ANC is where they really shine. They outperform my old Beats Studio 3’s in ANC performance. It’s also nice being able to up load EQ settings into the headphone.

Really great Earphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have tons of ear-wear and am an audiophile. Gone through pretty much everything (Bose/Sony/IEMs/etc) and these are amazing. For over the ear super comfortable too. Wore them on a 10 hour journey and no problem

||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.By far the best noise canceling headset for the money. I got mine on sale and it is just great! I will say the only annoying part is having to download the Sony app to pair it to my phone. Other than that I am pleased with it!

Great sound
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality very good overall. When noise cancellation is on things like wind or ac can cause weird scratching noise, but otherwise noise cancellation is very good and the auto adjustments based on situation are very cool.

The hype is somewhat right.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound is great. It is. Im not a radiohead to speak on highs and lows. All I know is when I put on my cans, I want it to sound clear and thump where it suppose to thump. Saying that, I feel these squeeze just a bit too much for me on the head. Also, singing along to the song would sometimes cause the music to stop. I ended up taking them back and getting the Bose 700s.

Posted .Hi LDaniel, it's unfortunate you had to return these headphones despite its great sound quality. We do appreciate your feedback about it's fit. The Speak-to-Chat function can be disabled by holding your 2 fingers to the touch sensor control panel until you hear the voice guidance say, “Speak-to-chat deactivated”. Thanks for your review and we hope you consider Sony in your future purchase. ~Ralph
