You get what you pay for
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wow! I'm really impressed by the sound quality, noise cancelling performance, and feature set. They are comfortable to wear for several hours at a time. I haven't yet had opportunity to try the microphone for videoconferencing, but I am optimistic. These are not budget headphones. But you do get what you pay for with these.

Sony did it again
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound of these headphones is out of this world. They are the best over ear headphones I’ve ever owned. The sound is balanced not too much bass but it still booms.

Quality at a price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really good sound quality. Clear and crisp sound. The best part is the noise canceling. Noise-canceling stops automatically if someone nearby or you start talking. However, one time I was listening to music, and suddenly there was no sound for no apparent reason even though the headset was connected and the music was running on YouTube music. When I disconnected the Bluetooth, I could hear the music playing on my laptop. So I had to restart the headphones and reconnect to the Bluetooth to get it to work again. This only happened once though. Comes with different sets of connectors. Can be used on long flights for noise canceling or watching movies.

Great!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What a great product. Over the ear headphones. Noise cancellation is great. The fact that I can connect with two devices at one time is worth it. It provides a super rich bass with clear lows with highs.

Great if you can pick it up on sale
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.excellent sound quality and probably the best noise-cancelling HPs I ever tried. I think Bose comes second to this because Sony's sound profile is crispy and dynamic compared to Bose's. One downside is the transparency mode. It's not as good as my AirPods Pros and I can hear the wind through it sometimes.
