    These headphones are wonderful, both sound and noise cancellation. They are replacing an older model WH-1000XM3, that broke just as the warranty expired. I hope these last longer, as they are the best for blocking airplane noise.

    I used the headphones during a ten-hour trip to Europe. Superb noise canceling coupled with easy access to the airplane's entertainment system made the flight a relatively good experience, much more comfortable than I have sufferied in the past. I recommend these Sony headphones unreservedly.

    Great sound (well, of course), but sound dampening also works like a charm. You're shut off from construction sites, other passengers on board planes, trains, buses. Love the ability to cup my hand over the right 'phone and instantly my music turns down and I'm able to speak to someone who's addressing me. No fumbling.

    Great quality in feel and sound. Great features like speak to chat, where they stop playing if you start talking and then resume in as little as 15 seconds. App was clunky for me to use at first, but with practice became easier. It analyzed a picture of my ear and then the sound got better based off the picture...WOW!

    Best wireless headphones imaginable. I use them almost daily, they sound excellent for wireless, and they are a total gamechanger on airplanes, subways, and riding passenger in a car. They're pricy, but you cant beat em!

    I enjoy them. Price on sale was very good. The features and comfort are excellent. I find the sound could be more crisp. I'm not sure if I'm just having a hard time finding my preferred sound profile or if its the headphones. Adding base seems to wash out mid and high clarity.

    From my honest opinion. These headphoes arent at all bad for nouse cancelation. They have the atmosphere that you can cgange whoch i thought was pretty cool. But a few con are one there is no bass unlike the skullcandy skullcrusher headphones. Second not loud at all unlike beats by dre. These are pretty neat though.

      Hi Austin,

      We're glad that you like the noise canceling function of the headphones. It's unfortunate that you are not having a complete experience because of the sound quality. For optimum performance, make sure to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app). You also have the option to use the app's equalizer function to tailor-fit the sound quality to your needs. For more information, please refer to this link:
