Not budget friendly
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome, however I believe the price is a little high for what you get. I would recommend getting the m4 rather than these. All in all, if budget isn’t an issue, then these are perfect.

Solid product, But not for me
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only issue I had was with comfortably. Which I found them to be extremely uncomfortable. However, thats just me. To each their own, as I’m sure no two heads are the same. Try them on before you buy, that was my only mistake.

I'm happy with my headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The good: great for music, phone calls. I love the feature to minimize the sound. Cons: Not great for workouts which is one reason for my purchase. The sound is great but the material that covers the ear gets clammy.

DO NOT BUY SONY HEADPHONES!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They sound fine, but there is a known flaw in the engineering of the headphones. After 10 months of use, the hinge randomly cracked, and now the headphones are unusable. This is such a known issue that they have collaborated with another company to repair the headphones at the customer's expense. While online it is allegedly listed for those whose break happens "out of warranty," when you actually seek a warranty repair, they say it constitutes physical damage and is not covered. THEY WILL NOT STAND BEHIND THE PRODUCT OR HONOR THE WARRANTY. Buy literally any other brand- these are not worth it.
