Awesome Headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the first pair of wireless headphone I have purchased. I love the sound quality and the noise cancelling technology. You can place your hand on the right side and hear if someone is talking to you without taking them off. The volume is controlled by swiping your finger up and down on the side. Highly recommend. If you see them on sale definitely buy one. I got an amazing deal on my at Christmas time.

Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are great headphones. The ears are soft and comfortable for long periods. The noise cancellation is great, as is the ability to switch back and forth. Over ear headphones get warm on my ears quickly, but I don’t think that can be helped.

For your issue, having unusually dry skin can store static electricity in humans. A large amount of static electricity in the body and having contact with electrical devices at the same time can cause stress on the device and/or on your body. You can avoid this from happening by wearing clothing of natural materials that can't store static electricity.
Thank you so much for choosing Sony!

Great ANC headphones!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've used the Airpod Max and Beats Studio Pros for several years, even though I am an Android user. I've been eyeing the XM5's for several month and watching the price on them, but these went on sale for what I considered an unbeatable price of $200, so I decided to pull the trigger on these for now. I'm not typically the guy who buys the older version of anything when there is the "new and improved" model to get, but I couldn't pass this deal up. For the price, these cans are awesome, and I wish that I hadn't waiting so long to buy them. These will be my go-to for music listening and traveling from this point forward! if you're on the fence about getting these, you should give them a try!

Great sound and comfort, finicky software
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound and comfort are pretty good. Bluetooth on Windows 10 PCs can be a little inconsistent at times and so can the app on Android as it can be impossible to connect sometimes. The app is needed to change certain settings like EQs or touch controls. There are times where I have to unpair the headphones from my device, uninstall the app, then re-pair it and install the app again for it to work again as doing the usual turning off and on the Bluetooth on the phone or holding down the power button on the headphones to pair don't always work to get the app functioning properly. It can also be difficult sometimes to update the headphones to the latest firmware as it will not always download it right away even with automatic download turned on. Overall, these are a great pair of headphones, just wish the software side of things could be a bit better.

Posted .Hi ZonaGamer,
We're glad that you like the sound quality and comfort of the headphones. It's unfortunate that you're having connectivity issues with the app. Make sure that the Sony Headphones Connect app is up-to-date for optimum performance. Resetting and initializing the headset may also help resolve the issue:

I Love Them, Haven't went a day without em AWESOME
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I Love these headphone, the Noise Cancellation is amazing, ofcorse you can hear minor sounds, especially if they are just on your ears with nothing playing, with something playing, they are incredable, I am very happy with my purchase, sometimes the left ear makes a little humming sound but it comes and goes and really isn't that big of a deal, When using them to talk to people on the phone, they are great for you and the person you are on the phone with, with these headphones and the technology, they hear you better than ever.

Great upgrade from Bose QC 35 after app settings
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Long-time owner of the Bose QC 35 and I’m glad I took the leap. I owned the QC 35s for several years now, and it still works great. To me, the upgrade in going to this pair of Sony wireless headphones wasn’t there until I changed the configurations in the Sony app to my preference. After those configurations, the sound quality made a world of a difference. I still prefer the buttons on the Bose QC 35, and the part of the headphones that goes over the top of your head on the Bose feels more comfortable to me. I will still alternate between using both, but will definitely grab these Sony headphones when I really want to appreciate the music sound quality, especially the 360 reality audio song selections on Amazon Music.
