Excellent Product ! Highly Recommend
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Lots of music to select and signal is food everywhere you go. You don't miss a station like regular radio that fades in certain areas and you cant even listen to them. But this service is excellent

Don't Recommend - Poor QC and Customer Service
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The quality control on this is abysmal. Within a few months of owning, they snapped at the hinges. I can not longer wear them, as the headphone just dangles off when I try to put them on. I took very good care of them, didn't work out in them, and only ever transported the headphones in their provided case. Look online, and you will see that snapping at the hinge is a common problem. Despite only owning them for a few months, and the fact that they snapped out of the blue while I was wearing them, Sony refused to help. They claimed their warranty doesn't cover "accidental or physical damage". This is a known problem, and I am so disappointed with how Sony handled this. I am now out several hundred dollars. I wouldn't recommend this product until they get their QC under control (or at least until their warranty actually covers anything...).
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from SonyListens

5 star hardware. Mediocre sony app.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The hardware is 5 stars!!!!. The only thing that i dont like is the app which only allows you to either have 2 devices connected at the same time like phone and work computer but if u are to go to the gaming pc or some other device you need to remove one and add the other. Intead of just marking what device should be active. Also sometimes you just want one device active. To do that you have to disable the 2 device functionality. Also the buttons are a bit sensitive. Everytime i stretch after training and my arm brushes the headphones something happens.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not a big jump from the x3’s but, it’s noticiable when talking. These are great for talking, watching movies, and of course listening to music. These and the x3’s do not a big difference.

Sony Headset
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought with the intent to use with my TV. However, I also use them for work use with Microsoft Teams and it pairs with my iPhone too, as it has a built in microphone. It doesn’t completely block all of the surrounding sound, so if anyone buys it with that expectation, it was not intended to do that. However, it blocks out the majority and makes listening to your favorite show or movie even better!
