a life changer
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Lemme tell you. These are AMAZING! I’ve been coming from the lower end version of Sony headphones and these are night and day different! I was debating betweein the Airpod Max and the XM5s - this has an IP rating that Apple doesnt have which is well needed because my ears get damp and moisty a lot! Regardless, It’s super comfortable and amazing! Props to Sony for an amazing product!

Great for mowing !
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use these headphones when I am on my very loud zero turn mower and they block out the noise and allow me to listen to my favorite tunes while I'm mowing. My wife can get ahold of me anytime easily by just calling my cell phone which is connected to the headphones by bluetooth.

Really good just a bit pricy
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones, sound quality overall is great, ambient noise is good just you need to lower music volume, the touchpad on the right headphone is my favorite feature, one complain i have is that the ear foam is not thick enough but overall if you have spare money i would definitely recommend these.

Quality headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones, true noise cancelling which is a huge deal. They can run warm, but the quality is worth it. They do shut off if you take the headphones off and lay them down so you need to have a stand to hang them on or be prepared to scramble to put them on your head and engage the "on" button on if someone calls, all at once.
