Great Sound even on PC
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this headset! I use it for just about everything. I bought it for work from home. I wear them for hours a day and they are very light and extremely comfortable! The sound is also pretty great for closed back headphones. I ended up buying the FiiO BTA30 as well to connect them to my PC and get true LDAC. I highly suggest picking up both if you want the best quality audio from your PC.

better than apple airpod max
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased these and the apple airpods max. Price wasnt really a factor from me. I just need something confortable that will cancel noise effectively. These are much more confortable for long coding sessions compared to the apple product. And half the price! They get a bit warm, but all closed back headphones do. Not much that can be done there. love the portability and carry case

2nd pair from Sony! Love them.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The most comfortable headset that cancels enough noise and yet doesn't make me feel like I won't hear if there was an emergency that I would not be aware of. I need to be distraction free at work, yet still aware if someone needs to get my attention. These work perfectly!

Great for Entertainment & Work
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Since working from home I needed a good pair of truly wireless headphones or earbuds to use. These new Sony headphones is efficient when listening through your computer and answering calls from your phone without the hassle. During a call, your music is paused from your computer and resumes after finishing a call. Simple as that. Also the comfort is a plus, along with the noise cancellation.

Loves the noise cancellation, the best sound quality, and overall great feel and comfortable to wear. Oh yeah, can't forget he loves the touch controls. He wears them all the time.

No head soreness
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had Beats and normally uae my Samsung earbuds. These are the best headphones I've ever had. Battery life is better than I've had, wear them at night for 6-7 hours and battery usage has only gone down from 100% to 80%. Sound is outstanding.

Good sound quality & Noise cancelation
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to pair with good sound, battery life & better bass than previous sony xm3. New feature is ability to "auto hear" when mic detects someone talking to you, but I didn't care for that option personally. Must use touch controls to change volume, track, answer. Some people will not like that, but the device looks better without buttons.
