Noise canceling works good and good sound quality. She has a small head and loves them. I like them my head is a little bigger and not as a natural of a fit.

best noise canceling headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These must be the best set of noise-canceling headphones I have ever owned. They are not very fancy looking like bose or Sennheiser , but they definitely make up for it with just overall capability.

Solid headphones for the price with great sound
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far the best i used at this price point 350 ( bought on sale for 278.99) swapped over from Bose to these, with the features and sound quality definitely best bang for your buck , very content with these though may need a software update for one bug i experienced.. dinging or etc while already connected

Looking into refurbishing my Sennheisers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a quick review without a lot of detail because I'm in a hurry. My Sennheiser headphones that I've had for the last 12 years are way better than these, but everything is getting cheaper I guess so for the price of about $300 these are okay.

Headphone Review!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.XM4’s by Sony couldnt be a better choice for myself. Love how comfortable they are. I give them a 4.5/5, solid set of headphones for the gym and everyday use. I just dislike the talk for ambient sound feature.
