Best Headphones bought
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve always wanted a good pair of headphones that were noise cancelling but didn’t give me a headache. These were perfect! The app allows you to adjust ambient sound or switch to noise cancelling and the sound is so crisp! If you’re wearing them and walking around, it will automatically switch you to ambient so you can hear your surroundings. I am in loveeeee with the matte color too and for a fraction of the price of AirPod Max’s!

Meh - the XB910 would have been fine.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Tested this for the past 3 days.. so my time is limited but a total of 20 hours. Bluetooth to my computer was easy to setup, but the volume up and down worked and stopped. The audio quality was poor, in games which makes me believe its a driver issue, but I stopped using them because of the performance. - Voice chat was clear and the range was about 50% more than my Logictech headset, allowing me to run to the front door and kitchen without disconnection. Using these headphones on the phone is ok. Audio is great. The Volume up and down touch pad is complete trash and non responsive. Design: great comfort, tested twice for 6 hours straight. Audio: good audio quality, with an app to allow for controlling Base and Treble settings. I bought these on sale and think I over spent for the issues I am having with the touch pad.

Best Sound Cancelling Deadphones

Best headphones I've used
|Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.[Employee of bestbuy] These are easily the best headphones I've ever owned. The audio quality out of the box is crazy good and I only had to tweak the EQ a tiny bit to get the bass exactly where I wanted it. The muffs do get a little hot after a while and can make my ears sweaty but I usually don't end up using them that long except on flights.

Needs more bass
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Headphones are comfortable and look great. Controls work great. The over all sound doesn't have enough impact. Needs more bass to provide a fuller sound. I adjusted the EQ as much as possible to achieve the sound I was looking for, but just couldn't get there. My XB900N headphones have spoiled me. Sony, please bring back the XB900N rather than the current XB910N.

Great sound, good noise canceling
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super sound from Sony! I did a little more research after my purchase on what all the noise canceling is supposed to cancel which made me feel better that these do what they're supposed to & 100% noise canceling isn't possible. I bought these to knock down noise from 2 loud kiddos while I'm working on my masters at home. They cut out a ton of normal household hums & noises, but don't quite cut out all of the kids' unpredictable sounds. Ear cups get a little sweaty & overall weight is a little heavy after a couple hours of school work--but that's when I know it's time to be done :-) Lastly, I like the talk, controls, & 2nd bluetooth features.
