Great headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome set of headphones. Great for work and lounging but not the best for working out. They slip off my head a lot and collect a lot of moisture from sweat, even though I wipe them off every time if needed.

Wish they were smaller
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really loved the sound on these. Bought them for the primary purpose of enjoying my music more but fell in love with the ANC. The connection to 2 devices was really nice too. Wanted to keep them but they were unfortunately a little too big and would slip off my head if I tilted my head forward/backward or tried to work out

Not what I had hoped for.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These were very comfortable overall and the performance was not horrible, they left quite a lot to be desired at this price point. In short, the maximum volume is far too low, the sony equalizer app helps but, unless you're an audiologist its "What does this button do?", and lastly the active or adaptive noise cancelation let a ton of environmental noise in. Even its more restrictive setting. I returned and bought another Bose 700.

Posted .Hi Evin,
We're glad that you like the comfort of the headphones. It's unfortunate that you were not completely satisfied because of the volume and Adaptive Sound Control. For optimum performance, it is recommended to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app). The overall volume may vary depending on the source content. You do have the option to adjust the volume of the headphones and connected device. The Adaptive Sound Control is designed to automatically adjust the noise canceling function by behavior recognition. You can turn this function off if the noise canceling function becomes insufficient.
Thanks again for sharing your review and we hope you will consider Sony for your future purchases.
