I Love Them, Haven't went a day without em AWESOME
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I Love these headphone, the Noise Cancellation is amazing, ofcorse you can hear minor sounds, especially if they are just on your ears with nothing playing, with something playing, they are incredable, I am very happy with my purchase, sometimes the left ear makes a little humming sound but it comes and goes and really isn't that big of a deal, When using them to talk to people on the phone, they are great for you and the person you are on the phone with, with these headphones and the technology, they hear you better than ever.

A Solid Product From Sony
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My decision to purchase these over the many options out there was based on researching several sources. These headphones most often were at the top of the field… even beating out competitors known for their headphone/earphone products. My personal experience has been very positive as these headphones do everything advertised - and do so quite well. I believe these are a quality product and a value for the costs.

Pretty good headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These sound pretty good, my only complaint is they have a tendency to bring out the sibilance on vocals. Comparing to Apples Airpods Pro, base is much better, midrange a bit lacking, and vocals too sibilant (but I prefer these over the airpods).

Absolutely Amazing
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been waiting for these since last year. It was a hunch. I was hoping they would announce these for 2020 because I didn’t want to buy any of the already existing top pairs in the market. The best ones were already out for a year to a couple. I figured waiting for the newest made more sense as it would be safe to assume that improvements have been made. That’s exactly what Sony did with these following the already highly successful WH-1000XM3s.

Great headphones, stellar noise cancellation.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones sound great and the sound-cancelling is incredible. I forgot to bring these on a flight and definitely missed them. They are also great for an office environment, if you need to focus and get work done. The microphones are okay for the type of device, but certainly don't replace a headset with a proper microphone arm.
