Workout Headphones?
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Did extensive research on this product. And the sound quality is superb. No question about it. Perfect for a casual listen. Now here comes the part with some cons with working out. Training for about a decade, i know the style of movements one should be training if that makes sense. So when you’re perform pullups or decompression hangs to stretch your back. Your arm MAY accidentally change songs by brushing the side of the headphones. Now the side sensitivity configuration can be disabled but it be beats the purpose of the headphones. Also, if you’re workouts or if you’re a sweaty person. Be advised that it can be slippery when they are over your ears. Love the headphones for is functioning (audio). Would this be a good workout headphones? Do some more research.

Posted .Hi HectorC,
We're glad that you are enjoying the sound quality of the headphones. Your feedback about the touch controls and design is greatly appreciated. For optimum performance, make sure to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app).
The sensor of the touch sensor control panel is built into the flat surface of the right unit. Operate within the range of the sensor.
These headphones are not sweatproof nor waterproof. Touching the headset with sweaty hands, or using the headset in situations where the headset may get soaked in sweat may result in malfunction. They can still be used while doing light exercises.
For more serious workouts or if you sweat a lot, we suggest our headphones that are specifically designed for these tasks like the WF1000XM4.
Hope this helps. In case you need further assistance, please email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details:

Great for the gym
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They are pretty loud and comfortable but the only downside is the fact that one little touch on the sides and it pauses or thinks your trying to talk to siri. Other than that I absolutely love them. Perfect noise canceling.
