Top notch head phones
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these 2 years ago. These are the best headphones I've ever owned. I use them 24-7, from the office to the gym and around the house. They've fallen off my head and hit the ground numerous times. And still, keep on ticking. Unparalleled sound quality. With the best noise canceling you'll ever hear.

Overall Great headset
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It has pretty decent ANC. The only issue issue i have with ANC is the wind noise. Sound quality is great, the build itself is nice, comfortable, and looks and feels premium.

Listen to this
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These head phones are comfortable enough to bing watch but I can't tell if they are on or off unless I listen to them.. I wish there could be a light indicatior to let me know. I have put them away charged but when I want to use them they are not charged.
I would recommend this to a friendgreat, but too expensive.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comfortable ear pads. Sound is great. Downside is the price. Really expensive, so it takes away from the value. Because of the price, I do not recommend.

Best noise cancellation
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best noise canceling headphones on the market. Pricey, but you get what you pay for. Long battery life. Sounds quality out of the box is good, but is much better after EQing them.

Better than AirPods Pro Max.
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Noise cancellation is amazing, and they are light weight. I use them for work, and occasionally at the gym. The only reason I did not rate them a 5/5 is because they are not waterproof.

Poor made comfortable and good sounding headphone
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pros Great sound quality Very comfortable and lightweight Good looking Cons Poorly made Too many accidental touches on the touch mechanism of ear head Speak to Hear is one of the worst feature which is auto on when. Need to install the app to turn it off for every device you connect Poorly made hinge. Sony has some problem with all their previous headphones where the hinges brake. And they dont want to do anything about it. $400 heaphone poor made hinges not covered in warranty. Not worthy to buy. Luckily I bought it from bestbuy with GeekSquad warranty. So happy that I bought it from bestbuy
