    Headphone was very comfortable. I wore it while sleeping on a 5 hour flight and had no issues. The sound quality is great, watching movies and listening to music was a game changer for me. $350 is worth the price but is understandably expensive for most. If you ever see this on sale be sure to pick it up.

    I not only purchase 1 but a total of 3 for me and my kids. This works great and noise canceling is so nice. Can’t hear what’s going on at all in the next room when you have them on. So be careful when your using this out in public

    I like these headphones a lot. Pretty comfortable and light. Nice features and noise cancellation. They do not feel expensive but function like they are. I liked them enough to buy me and my brother a pair. The black pair is low key but the midnight blue pair adds a little touch of color but both are still subtle.

    Awesome noise-cancelling headphones. Comfortable and the noise cancelling feature is really, really good; I wear these all day at work as the ability to pair to 2 devices simultaneously is a game changer. The recent Sony headphones app update fixed a few issues I was having with Adaptive Sound. They’re perfect!

    Great Headphones, I had the 2nd generation and those were already quality headphones and these are still miles better, the notice canceling is top-notch. They are just as good as the Bose 700 which I have tried as well, even more comfortable, and for about 100 dollars left a much much better deal. Sony knows what they're doing!

    I already own a pair in black but wanted another pair that looks nice cause i work out with my black pair. Insane sound, battery life is crazy. I rollerblade with these on and the noise cancelling blocks out the wind.

    They have ready great sound. HPs are very customizable for a person's noise cancelling preferences. They are very comfortable to wear. Damien, Store Manager, at Arundel Mills MD store gave me the sale discount because the sale price had ended unbeknownst to me 2 days earlier. So I got a ready great price.

    I’ve owned pretty much the previous 2 generations of this and this model is by far the best. It’s lighter, and I love how we can finally connect to 2 devices! Took them long enough. I’ve been a fan of the touch features and being able to hold a hand over the ear cup to let sound in. Now you can enable when you speak for it to stop playing and that’s super convenient but of course can be annoying sometimes too. But I definitely recommend these over any of the other headphones on the market.
