It did take some time to get used to, but I highly recommend. They are extremely comfortable and the sound is impeccable. As a film editor these headphones will become extremely in my future projects.

Great upgrade to my old QC 15 headphones.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I went back and forth between these and the Bose 700 headphones. I am really glad I bought the Sony Headphones. These headphones are very light and comfortable to wear over long periods of time. The noise cancelling is superb. I love the feature where the music and noise cancelling will stop and ambient noise is increased when I begin speaking. very easy to pair with various devices.

Great noise cancellation and sound quality.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones have excellent sound quality and the noise cancelling lives up to its reputation as best-in-class. The headphones are also very comfortable (I wear them for between 2 and 4 hours several times a week). I cannot recommend these highly enough, especially if you can catch them on sale. I'm not a big fan of the app, but I also haven't used it very much. I primarily use these while on my computer, which works well.

Great Headphones for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ive been dying to have these headphones and I'm glad I did. Even when I put them on without music everything is more quite. The noise cancelling is amazing I cant here anything or anyone and I don't have to turn to volume all the way up. The sound is crisp and clear and the headphone battery lasts for days which is amazing. Glad I brought them.

When it fails...
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had these since 2020 and they have worked great for the most part. There are 2 things that are VERY bad about these, 1 from the start and the other just started happening. From the very start I have not been a fan of the fact that you can only pair these to 1 device. Technically 2 but since you need to use an app to control them 1 device will be your phone. The other thing is that when it fails it will deafen you in 1 ear. The incredibly loud (able to be heard from the second floor of my home while I was in the basement) will cause AT LEAST considerable short term pain in 1 ear. I had them on when the issue happened and it was easily the loudest, sharpest and most painful sound I have heard. For comparison, I was in the Navy and worked on the flight deck of a carrier (IYAOYAS) and this was much worse than anything I experienced there. Having said all that, the sound quality was very good and the noise cancelling really did eliminated things like the PC fan noise from my system and the heating/AC noise. The bass is good as well and I feel the build quality is equally decent. The battery life lasted all day with constant use and the time to charge is very short. The range was good and I was able to move through a 1200 SQFT 2 story home while remaining connected to a PC in the basement with no issues. I would have given 4 stars if they had not tried to murder 1 ear.

One of my Best Purchases!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones. The sound is fantastic and the noise canceling is top notch. I’ve gotten used to the touch controls. One of my favorite features is the connection to 2 devices. I switch between my iPhone 12 Pro and IPAD seamlessly. I created my own equalizer setup in the app and use it all the time. The case is handy and it is a quality built case. Battery life works as advertised. Just put on Shazam’s top 100 (Apple Music) sit back and enjoy.

Buy them if you can get them for the right price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pros -Sounds great. This is how I want to listen to music. -Noise cancelation works great. Negates alot of sound although not as much as I thought without music playing. - Innovative app. Cons - Speak to Chat feature is gimmicky. If you sing along to songs like I do then it is practically useless you use it for podcasts. - Touch controls don't react sometimes. Toss ups - I don't feel like the Battery last the advertised 30 hours but its good enough.

A very good purchase
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My first bluetooth headphone. I've used it for two months and it is a wonder. Noise cancelling is very good. It is surprising when I come to ambient....I realize how silent the noise cancelling is. I think the sound quality is excellent. A true audiophile might not think so but I have been very happy. The build quality is very good and the unit is light as a feather. This headphone is a deal when BB puts it on sale for 278.00.
