Love them, but they are too big for my head
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really really love the sound of these, the features, the noise cancelling, everything. The only issue is my head might be a little too small because the end up being held up by my ears and that grts uncomfy. Trying to see if I can make them work or if I need to take them back and try to find some that adjust a bit smaller to my head. Ive had to put a sock underneath the headband part so it doesnt hurt my ears, they are super comfortable when they sit right though!

Prefer over XM5
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I prefer this over the XM5 as it's foldable and easy to carry around. The noise cancellation on this is great, it provides me good time on many flights that I have been on. Battery is great as well

Amazing headphones
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Genuinely the most comfortable headphones I have owned. Charge lasts for a very long time. The app makes dialing in the custom EQ very user friendly through a system of option one or option two choices that tailor the sound to your liking which made it perfect for me. The noise cancelling also makes it so I’m not having to use a high volume which is great.

Amazing Overall
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best wireless, noise cancelling headphones out there imo. These are a big step up from the XM2s which I owned previously The sound quality is great as you would expect. Comfortable and minimal. The only nitpicks I have are with a couple of features, *speak to chat* & *pause when headphones are taken off*. The ladder is nice when it works, which is most times, but not all. Speak to chat however has become annoying. Its very sensitive to noise, not just your voice. Also it seems to activate even when switched off in settings.

Just dooooooeeeeet
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are great. Love the sound quality and the ANC is tooop notch. There was a garbage truck going crazy outside of the empty warehouse I'm working inside of, and I cycled into noise cancelling...Holy crap it's like it wasn't even there. Great buy, fantastic battery compared to my WF-1000XM3 earbuds I got a year or so back. If you can spring for these, definitely do it. Paired easily with my iPhone and Macbook Pro both with and without the app. App is also much improved from my first experiences.

What a refresing sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have always wanted these headphones as I knew the quality of sound. I have to say I am more than impressed with them. They are comfortable, look nice and the sound is breathtaking. Walking around with them is so good as you don't miss any notes in the music. I have to say I own a pair of BOSE you guys have to work hard to compete with SONY this time. I am retiring all the other headphones I own and keeping this one alone. The price is not bad at all. They do not look cheap.
