    They cancel sound great, or at least softens loud noises, good sound quantity, they are really comfortable and I love the color. If you take them off it pauses what you are listening to and resumes when you put them back on. The only annoying feature is if I say something or clear my throat it pauses, but resumes about 20 seconds later on its own. All in all 5 stars.

    I also have the Bose QC-35 and the Sony is just as good and even better on some features. I like the way it fits and looks. The only thing I like better on the Bose is that when I first turn it on it tells you which device it is connecting to. The Sony doesn’t. Also, I find the Bose easier to connect to a new device. Besides that, I’m very happy with the Sony.

    Overall, this is a great product. I love the ability to be able to simultaneously connect with two bluetooth devices without having to disconnect from one of them. The sound quality, and noise cancelling is superb. There are more features than I really use, but these headphones are exceptionally capable, and easy to use. I don't think they're quite as comfortable as the prior generation (which I also use), the cushion around the ear isn't quite as soft... but some people may like it a little more firm. But that doesn't mean that they're uncomfortable, just not quite a cozy as the XM3. For the money, they're great.

    I love it! I was sceptical of noise cancelling headphones, so I took a shot in the dark after a bit of comparisons online. I couldnt personally go out at test any, but I highly recommended before buying based on each persons' preferences. I have larger ears and it comfortably sits over them for extended periods of time. Sound quality is great and noise cancelation takes me to a deeper dimension of my dissociation.
