Sony does not disappoint
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had these for some time now and I have no regrets. The best ANC I have had has been with these and the ambient is even as good. I have switched over to headphones from earphones because all of them have fallen out of my ear no matter what the design was. Only thing I do wish was that the touch controls were on both sides.

Nonsense filters and so much more.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was apprehensive about purchasing these. Since I have owned them now for a few months, I would say they're worth it. The sound is awesome and the noise cancellation is among the best I've used. The best thing is how nice they are at totally blocking out the boss's voice, girlfriend when she's angry, and just anything that you don't feel like listening to. Get em. The Bluetooth distance is crazy.

||Posted .

Speak to chat should default to your latest selection. I get tired of turning that off. OTHERWISE? Stellar headset with amazing options, sound, and nc.
