Great Sound. Excellent Features
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am someone who always used bose headphones due to their amazing sound quality. However, my friend suggested me to try this headphone and dang I was surprised. The headphones have amazing sound quality specially base if you compare with bose over the ear headphones. I really like the right ear touch feature to listen outside sound clearly. If you are looking for an amazing quality product, look no further. One con can be that I like the acoustic sound in Bose headphones better. You may have to change the settings to get the best sound for songs with low base.

||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones have made my life 1000% better as a neurodivergent mom of 2. Overwhelmed with sounds around me and need noise cancelling! Pop on the Sonys! Can’t focus on cleaning the kitchen?? Pop on a podcast and the Sonys. Seriously, if you’re a mom that gets overstimulated or if you’re just needing a solid, high quality, beautiful pair of headphones. These are so so worth the money. Worth every penny!!!

I asked a bestbuy associate to show me something loud and he brought me these. The headphones are amazing when it comes to sound quality and sound cancellation. The swiping feature is my favorite part about them! They are loud and made me not even think twice about returning my Beats Studio Pros a day after having them. GET THESE HEADPHONES!!
