Sounds so nice I bought them twice!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good sounding, very comfortable and wireless. This product is so good that I bought a second pair. Are they a value meh only if you compare them a $500.00 pair of cans that sound alike.

Great headphones. Worth it
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Noise canceling is fire. So good has pretty good bass and you can customize the sound quality through the Sony app. Gets pretty lousy and the touch panel on the right side is responsive. Definitely worth it

Sony did it again
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound of these headphones is out of this world. They are the best over ear headphones I’ve ever owned. The sound is balanced not too much bass but it still booms.

Worth the Price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was skeptical on spending a high price for these but they were definitely worth it. The connect seemlessly with all my bluetooth devices. The app to manage which devices I can connect to is also really helpful for when I need to switch between devices. The noise canceling feature is also top notch. It's helpful for when I'm watching TV and I could just drown out the noise in the background. Highly recommend getting these headphones if you're in need for something more premium.

best form factor for sony headphones
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.some of the best headphones money can buy. I like this model better than the later ones as it had a thicker headband which is comfy for bald people. cant wear the new ones without head pain. Sony please think of this for the XM7s this form factor was much better. the drivers in the xm3 sound the best for bass but somehow these still sound better than xm5 or xm6 they are trying to make them smaller but ruining the bass in the process.

9/10 Almost perfect
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had to return my first pair since the right headphone was making a wind noise no matter the environment I was in while the ANC was active. Contacted Sony support and they said that this was normal behaviour, but for $350 I'd expect better. They refused to help me, so I returned those and purchased a second pair. I decided to get them again because I hope that I don't run into this problem again. These things are great! I've never had any really premium headphones before, so maybe I'm ignorant, but really, the should out of these is fantastic, the noise cancelling is pretty good, especially in day to day use, and being able to set a custom sound profile is the best. They added multi device support, so you can see listening to something on your computer, and answer a phone call without needing to switch anything, it's all automatic. Tons of features, and for this price point, these are much better than the Bose offerings sound wise. I bought some Bose headphones to compare and these blew those away in every field except the build quality. These have a lightweighr, plastic feel, but you get used to them quick - I stopped noticing after a day or two.

The best headphones for sound
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been heavily using the Bose Quietcomfort ii headphones for 3 years now, but after the ear pads had peeled, I decided to buy a pair of these headphones based on the online reviews that they were actually better. As far as sound and noise cancellation goes, they are! The sound is clearer and more customizable using the Sony app. The only negative with these is that if you wear them for more than 2 hours or so, your ears will start to sweat a little, but it’s not that bad. The Bose is more breathable in this regard, and therefore better suited to long periods of wear if you use them at work or during long travel. But in all other areas, these from Sony are superior.
