Comfort, noise canceling, and quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Download Sony Headphone Connect App, open box, turn on headphones (bottom of left headphone on/off switch), using Sony Connect App, connect and paired new headphones. - My headphones were 100% charged out of box. - Many features in Sony Connect App, matter of your preference and use. I do think the app is solid and useful for my use of these headphones. - My headphones firmware updated automatically -be patient, process took several minutes. Initial impression; very comfortable, really good noise canceling and sound quality. - Voice clarity on both ends is outstanding. - Easily connected two iPhones, my experience switching between them was seamless. - Used ear profile in-app feature to analyze my ear shape for 360 Reality Audio setup.

Good upgrade!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these headphone, upgraded from the XM2s. While it isn't a huge gain, I had a gift card so I used it to upgrade and it was worth it. These fit a lot nicer and sound a little better, and I think the ANC is better.

BEST HEADPHONE!!! if you dont mind the size
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this headphone and a airpod pro. This headphones are amazing I cant describe how good they sound. Noise cancellation is amazing. Overall it is amazing if you do not mind the size. I ended up returning them since it was not compatible with windows 10. I was able to connect it and it works as a "output" so you can listen to music but you can't use the microphone if you connect it to windows 10, so unfortunately I couldn't use it for gaming on my PC. Otherwise it is a crazy headphone. I would say the noise cancellation is a little better than airpod pro's. Probably about 10%, but this thing is huge.

Worth the Price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was skeptical on spending a high price for these but they were definitely worth it. The connect seemlessly with all my bluetooth devices. The app to manage which devices I can connect to is also really helpful for when I need to switch between devices. The noise canceling feature is also top notch. It's helpful for when I'm watching TV and I could just drown out the noise in the background. Highly recommend getting these headphones if you're in need for something more premium.

Very happy & always looking for excuse to use
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really a 4.7 only because they are not quite as comfortable as I would like. Can't wear them for more than hour (think podcasts). Dual pairing is brilliant (phone and TV) and swaps between devices automatically and effortlessly. I like the layout of the new app as well. Not a good a Philips Hue but way better than Sonos. Oh and yah they sound really good too :) I got them for $100 off with a my $50/yr membership!!! (so worth it).
