Sony Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these headphones. The noise cancelation is great. There are many small features that I like. Music sounds good and volume is varied. Battery life is great i use them many times in a day and only have to charge like once a week. One downside they do not connect with my Microsoft Go3 and you have to download an app to connect the headphones.

I only use them indoors
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The case is small and I prefer that. The design looks nice and it feels comfortable. The sound is amazing on it and the battery life is good. The mic doesn’t have the background noise canceling but the headphones itself does and it works great. The touch functions are nice and sits around my neck just fine no complaints. I use mine for indoors and I don’t usually not ever active when using them.

Drown out the noise
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My best friends have this headphones, and i saw them use it during our flight, so that’s what really influenced me to get these. The fact that it was already blocked out any noise just by putting it on, had me really impressed. It took me a little to play around with the settings and whatno, but this was by far one of the best purchases i’ve made!

better sound then xm3
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Download Sony Headphone Connect App, open box, turn on headphones (bottom of left headphone on/off switch), using Sony Connect App, connect and paired new headphones. - My headphones were 100% charged out of box. - Many features in Sony Connect App, matter of your preference and use. I do think the app is solid and useful for my use of these headphones. - My headphones firmware updated automatically -be patient, process took several minutes. Initial impression; very comfortable, really good noise canceling and sound quality.

Great Headphones, best for price.
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My third purchase of these headphones. Very reliable, good battery life, and great noise cancellation. Very great sound, and a lot of options. Connecting to two devices is especially useful when you are connected to your computer and phone. Compared to other options on the market, this is very well priced. Check for Labor Day and Black Friday deals on this pair for an even better deal.

Amazing!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely love these headphones. The sound is fantastic and customizable with a basic EQ. You have the ability to connect 2 Bluetooth devices simultaneously, and the ability to use a wired 1/8” headphone connection for non Bluetooth devices. And the battery life is really forgiving, I don’t feel like I constantly have to worry about whether they are charged because of their battery capacity.

Great but not the Bose-killer
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really wanted these to outperform my Bose 700s, since I felt like the XM3s beat out the QC 35s in every way except some small annoying things (manual device switching, one device connection, etc.). I waited anxiously for months for their release and bought them right away. They’re good, but not great. They solved some of the small annoying things, but they still make you very reliant on a pretty non-friendly app interface to control your headphones. The touch controls are ok but it hammers your ear drum when you tap on the ear cups. The ANC and sound quality seemed to me to be almost identical to the XM3s, which I also owned. Very good in both cases, energetic sound, punchy bass, and almost no outside noise and very low hiss. These are really good headphones, but sadly, still not a Bose-killer for me. The 700s have the ANC edge, the phone call clarity edge, the fullest sound, and the easiest setup and app usability edge.
