Great for music, terrible for phone calls
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality was amazing. Loved the app and equalizer. Phone calls on the other hand were very opposite. Had so many problems with people hearing me clearly. Got a lot of echoing complaints and there’s this high crackling that comes every time you speak. I tried everything and it turns out it’s some kind of feature that’s not fixed yet that’s stems back to the m3’s. This was a deal breaker for me as I would like to at least have the option to talk on the phone with them. Phone calls were not acceptable and until they fix this, will stay at 3 stars.

Posted .Hi Joss,
We're glad that you like the sound quality and the dedicated app support (Sony Headphones Connect app) of the headphones. It's unfortunate that the call quality is not living up to your expectations. Make sure to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony app) for optimum performance.
Sony takes all feedback seriously. Rest assured that this will help us improve our products.
If you hear buzzing, popping, crackling, or vibration noises from your Bluetooth headphones that sound different than the more common static or distortion sounds caused by environmental interference issues, contact our product support team:

Better than boss
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Quality headphones. Definitely a lot sleeker looking than my old Bose QC35s. I’d say the sound and noise canceling is quite a bit better as well.
