    Love the sound cancelling! Totally masks noisy appliances and random household noise. I selected this product on the advice of a Geek Squad guy at the Dublin store. Trustworthy advice. Thanks Man! I chose sound quality over heavy bass sound quality of a similar model.

    It is amazing. I have gone out of my way to use my headphones throughout the day just so I can sit back and enjoy how immersive the headphones are. Once the wife sees them on me there’s no chance any words she’s speaking to me will get thru! she’s completely blocked out. A plus!

    Although I enjoy the headphones quite a bit, there are some underlying issues. Connectivity is one of these issues. There’s a feature on the headphones where after a certain amount of time, the headphones turn off. Whenever I turn them back on, they work fine for a bit before suddenly disconnecting. This continues to happen until I either forget the headphones or I reset my phone.

      We regret to hear that the headphones are not working properly. For optimum performance, make sure that the software version of the headphones is updated (via the Sony Headphones Connect app).
