Great sound
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been using ear buds for quite awhile but thought I’d try a good set of headphones and so far have been extremely satisfied. They’re not so heavy to cause discomfort and they are very good at isolating other sounds in the room. Being cordless really makes being mobile extra good!

best form factor for sony headphones
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.some of the best headphones money can buy. I like this model better than the later ones as it had a thicker headband which is comfy for bald people. cant wear the new ones without head pain. Sony please think of this for the XM7s this form factor was much better. the drivers in the xm3 sound the best for bass but somehow these still sound better than xm5 or xm6 they are trying to make them smaller but ruining the bass in the process.

The perfect headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphone quality is amazing and there are so many options and settings available on the app. The UI on the app is very easy to use as well making it quick to switch modes. I work in a factory where we can listen to music and these headphones are always on me and they help so that I don’t have to hear all the loud noise around me with the noise cancelling mode. Great product!! My brother put me onto these headphones:)

Really good sound.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are very good sounding headphones. I have never tried any in this class or more expensive so I can’t compare except to cheap headphones & earbuds. These are much better. I like the noise cancelling. I had very close neighbors who would fight a lot and windows were open in nice weather. This blocked them very well. They are gone. I still love the phones. I listen to mostly classical music and oldies from 60’s. I think the music sounds good. I can well distinguish individual instruments in classical music, making it very beautiful. I’ve had these over 2 years and still love them.

Amazing investment
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One of the best investments I've made. My apartment is next to a busy road, when I'm doing hw, the noise cancellation is amazing. Sometimes I don't even use it for music, but just pure Bliss and silence. It's lightweight and comfortable, and I love the dark blue color. 10/10

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the noise cancellation. And when you take the headset off it pauses the music. If only the sound was louder . Me personally I want to sound like I have in AirPods . But these are great for people that don’t care about the loudness

||Posted .

Top of the line noise cancelling headphones.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent noice cancelling. These headphones are lighter than the WH-1000XM2 that are being replaced. Build quality is not as robust as the older pair, but sound is better. Great deal when on sale. Best Buy is the only store that offers the Midnight Blue color which I like the best.

Amazing ANC and Incredible Sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased these for the ANC, I was blown away by the 360 Reality Audio. If you are looking at the XM4s or even the XM3s, you already know that they have set the bar for ANC. When you put these on, you just hear all that background noise woosh away putting you into silence. I've had other headphones from Anker SoundCore, to Cowin to some weird Chinese brands from Amazon and nothing comes close to the level of ANC that Sony can produce. It is truly incredible. Playing around with the Sony app(s), I stumbled upon the 360 sound demo and I was not expecting it to work as well as it did. Then I found some of the 360 / 3D / 8D videos on YouTube and it is awesome. Goofy ones like the Tucker Zone that will make you turn your head because you could swear someone was behind you knocking on a door, to songs remastered in a way that is like 5.1 and goes beyond your typical stereo effect. I can't believe I waited so long to purchases these, but I am so glad I finally did.
