Quality Headset!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super comfy and the sound quality is superb. I use the noise canceling feature in order to focus with my work and it does the job. I used it between 4-6 hours and I never felt like my head is being squeezed by the headphones.

Good sound quality & Noise cancelation
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to pair with good sound, battery life & better bass than previous sony xm3. New feature is ability to "auto hear" when mic detects someone talking to you, but I didn't care for that option personally. Must use touch controls to change volume, track, answer. Some people will not like that, but the device looks better without buttons.

Amazing!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise cancelling is so good on these. My wife has the XM3 and they’re nearly identical. I do like how these turn off when you take them off your head versus the XM3. I tried a pair of Bose Ultras and ended up returning them for these when they were on sale. The Bose probably sounded a little better but the noise cancelling was almost identical. For the price I couldn’t justify the more expensive Bose headphones. I really wanted to get the XM5’s but saw a decent amount of reviews saying the headband breaks easy. Didn’t want to drop that kind of money for something that would potentially break on me.

Not bad
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not bad headphones, sound quality is excellent for a non-audiophile. Noise cancellation works a charm, I can usually wear these for a couple of hours before I need to rest my ears. They sit a little tight on my head even with adjustment, but it’s not unbearable. Bluetooth is quick and easy to connect. Included case is rigid, do not over-torque the headphones when putting away in the case, I feel like it could be an easy failure point. Overall not bad. If you see them on sale I’d recommend picking them up.

Amazing Headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These things are great! The active noise cancelation is top notch. They are really comfortable too. I can wear them for 8 hours at a time without any problem. And the built in equalizer is awesome. I like my music with a lot of base and this allows you to customize that. And the headphones don't disappoint when it comes to sound quality. They give good, deep bass, and nice, clear vocals.

Previous seemed better.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Only 4 stars cause the headband isn't as tight as the previous model. Also, the passive noise reduction is not as good as previous model. I can hear more mid-frequencies coming through the headphones on this model. When I implement the auto-ambient control function I have to tap on the headphones to get the highest amount of noise cancelation from it. Despite what all the online frequency graphs are showing, this version is not as good at canceling higher mid frequencies than the previous version. Could have something to do with the hole for the sensor on the left ear. Don't really need that. I plugged it up, and disabled all the useless onheadphone-controls and keep it wired only. Wish they'd make a wired version, minimal controls, and Wired-only, with superior noise canceling for all frequencies especially ghetto-bass you hear from those stupid lowriders. or Jacked up funky mobiles with loud boom boxes.

Posted .Hi PeterHugh,
We appreciate your in-depth review of the headphones. It's unfortunate that you are not having a complete experience because of the design and noise canceling function.
Make sure to adjust the headband of the headphones to achieve the best fit and comfort.
For optimum performance, make sure that the software version is updated. The noise canceling function is effective in low-frequency ranges such as airplanes, trains, offices, near air-conditioning, and is not as effective for higher frequencies, such as human voices. Check that the Adaptive Sound Control is turned off. Check the setting of the Adaptive Sound Control on the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app. When the Adaptive Sound Control is turned on, the noise canceling function may become insufficient. Hope this helps.
Your feedback about wired headphones with the same Noise Canceling features is greatly appreciated. Thanks again for sharing your review and for choosing Sony!

Love these headphones!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the original XM1 (I think that is what they were called) and I returned them because I did not find them comfortable and for the price ($350) was not worth keeping. Flash forward a few years and I am a believer! Very comfortable, even for hours on end, sound is great and can now switch between 2 devices. I highly recommend this and since they are (were) on a Black Friday deal @ $298 it is a great deal.

Perfect
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got these for my husband with a new Sony TV. He is a little hard of hearing and has to put the TV up loud. He is also bothered by background noise. I wasn't sure he would like them or use them. HE LOVES them! Hardly takes them off! They are comfortable, block the background noise and he can hear the TV with no trouble. He can easily turn off the noise cancelling to have a conversation. Set up was easy,

Great Sound even on PC
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this headset! I use it for just about everything. I bought it for work from home. I wear them for hours a day and they are very light and extremely comfortable! The sound is also pretty great for closed back headphones. I ended up buying the FiiO BTA30 as well to connect them to my PC and get true LDAC. I highly suggest picking up both if you want the best quality audio from your PC.

better than apple airpod max
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased these and the apple airpods max. Price wasnt really a factor from me. I just need something confortable that will cancel noise effectively. These are much more confortable for long coding sessions compared to the apple product. And half the price! They get a bit warm, but all closed back headphones do. Not much that can be done there. love the portability and carry case
