Top rated in my book
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are light weight and mostly plastic, however the quality seems good. The sound is truly exceptional. These are wireless and connects to devices via blue tooth. They use a downloaded app that allows you to adjust settings including EQ to your liking. These are the best headphones I've owned. I don't advise wearing at the gym since they'll make you feel warm quickly. I'd buy again in a flash.

Great battery life and noise cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are amazing! Im so goad i got them. They are incredible at noise cancelling and look amazing. I’ve also gone WEEKS without charging- bow this was using maybe only for a couple of house (5-6) but still amazing! The only thing is, the headphones can slide off my head a bit when movinf but i don’t mind too much.

Sony XM4
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality is great. The fit leaves a little to be desired. This is the first headphones I’ve had where it feels like either my head is to small or my ears are set to high up. On all my old headphones the ear-cups needed to be adjusted down. On this set the ear pieces are all the way up and the band over the top of my head really doesn’t touch anything. Again though they sound good and have a decent play time whether using noise canceling or not. The only way I would recommend is to physically sit and wear them for an extended time. These are over the ear headphones and I initially thought they felt good. It was a little later I figured out they really didn’t git as well as I originally thought.

Sony makes the best headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comfy, easy to wear, especially with glasses. It has 3 modes: Noise Cancelling, Ambient Sound and Off and the noise cancelling is very good. There are some minor things like the battery and sensitivity to voice but nothing that is hard to get used to. It also folds up and the case is very hard so it protects. Overall I love these headphones.

Excellent Headphones
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best set of headphones I've ever used. I'm not an audiophile or anything like that, though. I mostly just use them while working or while cutting the lawn (noise cancelling works great as ear protection and the music is a bonus). They are very comfortable and they sound great.

Audiophile Wonder
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony is known for high end audio, and this is no exception! Even better than the MX3, the bass is really deep, and the high end is clear with easily discernible vocal notes. You can hear instruments individually, not all meshed together. This really makes a difference in your enjoyment of music! I was considering the Bose 700, but Sony offers so much more flexibility on their app to let you control the performance. You won't be disappointed in this choice!
