Great as usual!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these line of Sony headphones. Did a lot of research on these and I have the original ones which I love the ease of use. Very light and seems flimsy but materials that it’s made from are what makes it light. Only issue I seemed to run into was how many more features this iteration has. So there is a little setup included if you want to get the most out of your purchase. Obviously a little spendy.

Really Nice, Excellent Noise Canceling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are very nice, the sound quality is good, and the noise canceling is great. Right after I got these headphones my basement flooded and part of the cleanup involved leaving very loud fans running all day but with these headphones I couldn't hear them at all. The adaptive sound control is a really neat featured. A bit on the expensive side but if you worth it in my opinion.

Perfect headphones.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best headphone I’ve own. I had the previous version and even though there is one generation ahead I still chose this one. The case is awesome for traveling and do not take much space. Sound quality is amazing. Charges quickly. Perfect in my opinion. I wish Sony would keep this model, not a big fan of the most recent version.
