Better made than Soundcore
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super comfortable and amazing sound quality. I used to have a pair of soundcore headphones that I used before these, but I needed a new pair since one of the headphones snapped off at work. These feel like they’re made a lot better, so even though they are expensive, they’re made nicely. I recommend them for sure!

Posted .Hi Reviewer2018,
We're glad that you like the sound quality, battery life, comfort, and noise canceling function of the headphones. Your feedback about the multipoint function is greatly appreciated. Depending on the device, silent streaming can continue on the first device when the second device has a Bluetooth connection to the headphones. If this is the case, the headphones remain connected to the first device, and the audio doesn't switch to the second device.
Follow these steps to hear sound from the second device:
1. Open the Sony | Headphones Connect app, select the System tab, and make sure the Connect to 2 devices simultaneously option is set to ON.
2. Stop playback on the first connected device.
3. Close the audio (music) application on the first connected device.

Nicest over ear headphones for the money
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony has released new versions of the XM series headphones and they ARE better. But for the price difference these headphones are still GREAT. Solid consideration for anyone looking for a nice pair of headphones. Great for travel because of its battery life and the noise cancelling. I have bought multiple pairs as gifts for friends and family and have heard nothing but good things.

Excellent, deep base; great noise cancellation
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing headphones, super deep base, excellent noise cancellation. Really happy with this purchase and I find them to be better than more expensive BOSE options. Easy to pair with my iPhone and MacBook Pro. My only suggestion would be to use slightly nicer material to make it look and feels a bit more premium.
