Sony Headphones review
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the headphones as a Christmas present for my son. He didn't waste anytime using them with both his IPhone and laptop. The headphones are lighter and have better padding than the headphones he replaced. We are going on day 7 and have not recharged the battery yet.

Great for music
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones, especially when subscribed to a great streaming service. One issue when using as a headset the microphone drops out and you have to turn off and back on. That said, I don’t use them for video conferencing.

Best fit for larger head sizes
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this pair of headphones predominately for online school lectures while blocking out the husband, pets and television background noise. Not much to complain about other than the lack of ability to tighten the over head band. Even at the smallest size, my adult head doesn’t hold them in place for long. It is annoying but not worth returning.

Great headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best headphone purchase I ever made The noice cancelation isn't perfect, but it's close. The bass is the smoothest I've ever heard, and I was not very picky, but I will never expect anything but the quality I get from these! Would have spent 500 easily

Right Hinge
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are AMAZING when it comes to audio and noice canceling..but my issue lies with the physical. I have bought a pair of xm4’s before and in fact this is a replacement for those but my first pairs I had dropped and the right hinge swivel had broke and the right cup was just dangling, that was my fault that it broke, but this time I was just taking the headphones off and they broke, in the same way as my last ones..so I probably won’t ever be buying Sony’s again, they cost way too much to break so easily.
