Best headphones I've owned
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the 360 audio. Too bad I can't have this for all the music that I have. But without the 360, the sound is still very good. And I use it for video conferencing calls on PC and it's superb. This one has everything that I want. I can't ask for more.

I actually turn the noise cancellation feature down lower using app as it messed with my equilibrium. Weird experience but no uncommon for noise canceling for headsets.

Great Headphones

Bose are a bit lighter on the head, but this one has so many other features. Removing them from the head pauses what you are playing is great. USB-C charging is how it should be.

Good for noise cancelling, not so good for talking
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall these headphones are great, the sound quality for me is adequate and the noise cancelling is great. The only problem I have had is the ear phones are a bit tight and after prolonged use it causes sweat and a bit of discomfort but it’s not to noticeable. I have had a bit of trouble with the app that comes with it but after a bit of trial and error I have gotten used to it.

Best Noise Canceling Headphones period.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I didn't think sony would be able to improve from its wh1000xm3 but they have some how. Noise canceling is better, they sound amazing and the fact that I could get them in this best buy exclusive midnight blue color, it was totally worth the upgrade for me.
