Favorite Headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones so much. They sound amazing, the ambient noise option is good if you're walking around outside so you're aware of any traffic or people nearby. I use the noise-canceling when I travel to block out any outside noise. Charges quickly and the battery lasts forever.

Great over the ear
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I need a pair of the ear headphones for long study sessions that blocked out sound. I looked around, read reviews and and tried on several pairs. It ultimately came down that I need to purchase them, take them home and try them. I decided that I would buy the Sony flagship headphone. So far they have worked out wonderful. The sound is great and the lack of outside sound is awesome too. They do not block out sound like in the year versions, but they also do not kill your ear during long term listening sessions. I am still trying to get use to the controls but that is just using them more. I do like the ability to put up the ear and bam you can hear people without taking them off. The one thing I did not like, was the fact that Best Buy was all out of the black ones... I also did not want to to wait a couple of days to get a black version or I could have gone another route... but that is a very small issue.

WH-100XM4 Review
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing headphones! You can hear a lot of the detail. The balance between the vocals and bass is perfect. The Noise cancellation on the headphones is great. It doesn’t cancel out every single thing but other than that it is good. The app it comes with as well is leagues above the others.
