Overall a great choice
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are super comfortable to wear all day and the microphone is very clear during meetings. I will say not being able to connect to multiple devices at once has thrown me off a little bit. The battery life is phenomenal.

Sony Value
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best headset I’ve owned in years. Ease of use and comfortable. Noise canceling is great but can be iffy when people are screaming around you. It will try to block there voice but is very wierd.

Best carrying case in the game
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Like this better than the Airpods Max. Not as seamless as apples headphones for the apple ecosystem, But fit and comfortability wise I would definitely choose this over the other. ANC feature is nice and carrying case is really nice.
