Pretty good headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These sound pretty good, my only complaint is they have a tendency to bring out the sibilance on vocals. Comparing to Apples Airpods Pro, base is much better, midrange a bit lacking, and vocals too sibilant (but I prefer these over the airpods).

Absolutely Amazing
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been waiting for these since last year. It was a hunch. I was hoping they would announce these for 2020 because I didn’t want to buy any of the already existing top pairs in the market. The best ones were already out for a year to a couple. I figured waiting for the newest made more sense as it would be safe to assume that improvements have been made. That’s exactly what Sony did with these following the already highly successful WH-1000XM3s.

Not what I had hoped for.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These were very comfortable overall and the performance was not horrible, they left quite a lot to be desired at this price point. In short, the maximum volume is far too low, the sony equalizer app helps but, unless you're an audiologist its "What does this button do?", and lastly the active or adaptive noise cancelation let a ton of environmental noise in. Even its more restrictive setting. I returned and bought another Bose 700.

Posted .Hi Evin,
We're glad that you like the comfort of the headphones. It's unfortunate that you were not completely satisfied because of the volume and Adaptive Sound Control. For optimum performance, it is recommended to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app). The overall volume may vary depending on the source content. You do have the option to adjust the volume of the headphones and connected device. The Adaptive Sound Control is designed to automatically adjust the noise canceling function by behavior recognition. You can turn this function off if the noise canceling function becomes insufficient.
Thanks again for sharing your review and we hope you will consider Sony for your future purchases.

Great headphones.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great quality. The noise cancellation is insane and actually takes some getting use to lol. Huge upgrade from my old headphones. My only negative is they run pretty big. I have a pretty big head and these almost fall off me, especially when I'm working out and that's the main time I use them. Otherwise I love them.
