My boss has to tap my shoulder to get my attention
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome you can use anywhere. I use these at work because there are so many distractions. The noise cancelling helps me focus. And when I speak, no need to take them down they automatically mute and enhance the outside noise so I can hear whoever is speaking to me. It’s great!

One of the Best
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hands down the best over-ear noise canceling headphones I’ve ever used. I’m really big into music and beats and when I saw many reviews I had to hear it for my self and I gotta say these are a 5/5. Sony really did an amazing job with these. The clarity in music is just CRAZY you fell like you’re in the studio while hearing music. If you have Apple Music I would definitely recommend these as they have great quality songs

Best Travel Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the highest quality headphones for sound cancelling capabilities that you can find at this price point. They go on sale fairly regularly, so I highly recommend setting an alert for picking them up here. Best Buy has a solid warranty program, so I picked one up for myself and my partner.

Used to be the king
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Loved these until the Apple Airpods max came out. These are now the #2 headphones. Great noise cancelling and fold up very small. Also very light. Sound is a bit muddles compared to airpods max or B&W px.

Great alternative to Bose!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are a serious competitor in the upper end of the noise cancelling bluetooth phone arena. I find the noise cancelling feature to be top shelf in and around the house. I haven't had a chance to test in flight but see no reason that they are not state of the art there as well. The voice quality on calls is excellent. The quality with music is very enveloping, like being on stage with the musicians. Very easy to set up makes for a compelling package!

Living on EZ street with these
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall these are the best headphones you could buy if you are looking to have wireless headphones that are convenient and allow you to shut all the outside noise. My use case mainly being to focus on my schoolwork with my SO watches TV next to me. Where I cannot hear the TV unless an action scene is occuring.
