Comfortable and sound great
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones sound amazing and are very comfortable to wear. However, I am disappointed that it doesn't block out as much noise as I expected. Not any better than my previous ear buds. But they do sound a lot better and I'll continue to use them!

Your assessment is spot on! The headphones blend sophisticated style with exceptional comfort.

Great headphones, and love the blue
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don't sound any different than my old XM3's, but I'm not going to complain about that - still some of the better Bluetooth headphones I've heard. Multipoint alone was worth the upgrade, but the Best Buy exclusive colorway really sets them apart from the tired looking black on copper. The blue's very dark, wouldn't have thought twice if you'd told me it was a Massdrop edition. My XM3's suffered from cracks in the weak point in the headband, supposedly this has been addressed with the new model. Only time will tell. Only real complaint is battery life seems ever so slightly worse than the last gen, but it's still more than a full day of use.

Hard to beat!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just amazing headphones. Can connect them to two devices at once and it will switch between them automatically if one device stops playing and another starts, so they’re great for music/podcasts while working because they switch to my laptop whenever I get a zoom or teams call. They pair incredibly well with my Sony tv, which allows for great quality listening at night without having to disturb the entire apartment complex (or the spouse/significant other!). Got these on sale and can’t recommend enough. The noise cancelling is top notch too, and the Sony headphones connect app allows for incredible personalization of the sound settings.

Almost Perfect
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There are only 2 flaws that I've experienced with the product so far. 1. When I remove the left ear cup from my ear, the track skips. 2. It's annoying having to adjust the ANC and Ambient Noise settings every time I power the headsets back on. Other than that, the cans are comfortable and sound great.

Posted .Hi Kingaling, we're glad that you like the comfort and sound quality of the headphones. In the factory setting, the built-in proximity sensor in the left unit and the built-in acceleration sensors in each of the left and right units detect when the headset is attached to or removed from your ears, and the headset automatically controls the touch sensor control panel’s operation, powering off, pausing music playback, etc. (Wearing detection).
Your feedback about the ANC and Ambient Sound settings is greatly appreciated. Thanks for sharing your review and for choosing Sony.
