Sony Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these headphones. The noise cancelation is great. There are many small features that I like. Music sounds good and volume is varied. Battery life is great i use them many times in a day and only have to charge like once a week. One downside they do not connect with my Microsoft Go3 and you have to download an app to connect the headphones.

Excellent Headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There isn't much I can say that hasn't been already said. This is the mother of all headphones ... for the price, anyway. For a higher budget, you can perhaps find something slightly better but not for the "end of year" 2021 Christmas Season Price which knocked almost $100 off of the MSRP. Noise cancelling is great, comfort is 'all-day', and the sound clarity is pristine - clear highs, clean mids and deep lows - with the ability to customize/EQ the sound to suit your personal taste. Overall, a winner! I would definitely recommend!

Boose headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The main reason I bought it is obviously for the gym. I wanted something to be loud and clear and motivating when I’m on the treadmill, but I noticed it’s not that loud so I kinda don’t like that part of it other than that I like it’s a nice color it’s lightweight.

Posted .Thank you for sharing your feedback, KarlaV.
We are so pleased to hear that your WH-1000XM4 headphones are lightweight and that you enjoy the color. We designed them to be comfortable for active use, and it's great to know they are working well for you in that regard.
We also understand your comments about the volume. We apologize that the headphones are not as loud as you'd like, especially when you need that extra boost for your workouts. This is certainly not the motivating experience we aim to deliver. If you haven't already, we recommend checking your device's volume settings, as well as the Sony Headphones Connect app, to ensure the volume is turned all the way up.
Thank you again for your valuable feedback.
Best regards, Gus, Sony Social Media Team

Best headphones for the price
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got them when on sale for $100 off before christmas and they have been a dream both for music and gaming. I dont game online or use them for phone calls so i cant say anything about the microphone quality but they put out awesome sound and are comfortable to wear for hours on end. Even though they are wireless, a great feature to have with aux ports disappearing, i use them wired always and get a wider, fuller, louder sound. Just my personal preference though. Solid headphones and even at full price are well worth the price

I only use them indoors
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The case is small and I prefer that. The design looks nice and it feels comfortable. The sound is amazing on it and the battery life is good. The mic doesn’t have the background noise canceling but the headphones itself does and it works great. The touch functions are nice and sits around my neck just fine no complaints. I use mine for indoors and I don’t usually not ever active when using them.

Quality Sony Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I did a lot of research when looking for some new premium headphones and finally decided on these. So far they work great in the short time I have used them. Some people complained about the bass not being punchy, which I'm not sure why because the sound quality is amazing. I will say the volume doesn't get super loud, which is good and bad. These replaced some Wireless Studio Beats and these are much better quality, both in sound and build. The app has some cool features as well. I'm interested to see how they hold up long term, but so far I love them. (The Midnight Blue color is beautiful)

Great Headphones, best for price.

Very reliable, good battery life, and great noise cancellation. Very great sound, and a lot of options. Connecting to two devices is especially useful when you are connected to your computer and phone. Compared to other options on the market, this is very well priced. Check for Labor Day and Black Friday deals on this pair for an even better deal.
