Top of the Line
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for something with superior sound quality, in addition to BlueTooth connectivity and noise cancellation and these delivered exceptionally well. Having the ability to adjust the level of noise-canceling is amazing. They sound better than anything else on the market and using 8D audio really allows them to showcase their full potential.

Best headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Went through a LOT of headphones until we found these. Out of all the new Sony headphones, these are by far the best. Bose were terrible and other Sony models we tried were crap, even the more expensive ones. There are where it’s at! Noise canceling is perfect. Sound leakage is minimal, sound is great

One of the best.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are one of the best headphones out there. The noise cancelling works as intended, it pairs easily to the two devices. The transition between the two devices whiles playing sounds is seamless and very fast. The little sensor lets the music pause as soon as you take the headphones off. However, I have found that the music plays if I leave the headphones on my head, or hanging on my neck. I think this is because the sensors end up being covered and mistake my head/cheat for my ears. I would rather pause whatever I’m listening to than rely on the headphones, unless you completely take them off. There’s not a lot of improvement from the XM3s.
