Great headphones - make a great gift
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for my husband for Christmas. He loves it. He has a Sony noise canceling headphones now and he said these are better. He likes the ability to turn on/off the noise canceling when we are out to dinner. He can turn it off to talk to me, then turn it back on easily afterwards.

Posted .Hi JannJ, We are happy that your husband loves his new Sony wireless noise canceling headphones. With our WH-1000XM5 headphones, he can enjoy magnificent sound quality which is engineered to perfection and have a battery life that can last up to 30 hours with quick charging (3 min charge for 3 hours of playback). With 8 total microphones, these headphones are our biggest step forward in noise canceling technology. For everyday convenience, just Speak-to-Chat and Quick Attention mode stop his music and let in ambient sound. Thank you for choosing Sony! Vincent

Wonderful
|Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Product comes packaged in its own sleek carrying case, its not the most elegant but it will work incredibly well if you do not want to spend money on a different one, or as a place holder until a different one comes in. The sounds quality is amazing, absolutely top of the line comapred to any other retail marketed headphones out there, Bose, Apple, Beats, JBL, and other Sony products.

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.
