    Not any better than the xm3's

    I had the xm3's before these and there are not many improvements. Noise canceling and ambient sound is still top tier. Now there is a sensor in the left ear that knows when you take them off. The accompanying app allows you to enable features that can pause and/or turn off the device when you're not wearing them.

    [Employee of bestbuy] Really good for working out, completely blocks out any noise from the outside but you can still listen to people if you need as well by holding the side.

    Outstanding headphones. Had Bose QC35 previously and loved them but they developed an issue with not turning off properly. Decided to try Sony and very happy I did. Build quality, sound, and noise canceling is about the same as Bose. But Sony has better phone app and better volume controls

    The best in the market right now. Maybe the xm5 is better by a bit. Good for white noise, especially in aeroplanes. Apple ones might be better but then you'll need their whole $$$ setup / ecosystem.

    Got these bad boys on sale for $250.00. ANC is good, took them on a flight to Vegas and significantly reduce the sound of the jet engine however if your expectation is for the to completely eliminate that is unrealistic. Also, doesn’t do a good job canceling peoples voices, so if you getting them to get piece and quite from your family look elsewhere. Audio quality is excellent and plenty of adjustments available via the Sony app.
