Nice Headphone
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice headphones with good nice cancellation feature. I use it with my laptop for office work and connecting the blue tooth every time i put my headphone done, it takes me a while to connect it again. Apart from that, it is a good product.

Posted .Thank you for the fantastic review, Payal!
We are so glad to hear that you are enjoying the good noise cancellation on your WH-1000XM5! It’s the perfect tool for staying focused during office work.
Regarding that Bluetooth delay, we definitely want to make your workday smoother! A great way to fix this is by using the "Multi-point Connection" feature in the Sony | Headphones Connect app. This allows your headphones to stay paired to both your phone and your laptop at the same time, so you won't have to manually reconnect every time you put them back on.
Also, checking that your Windows "Swift Pair" setting is toggled On can make that initial handshake almost instant!
Thank you for choosing Sony!
Best regards,
Gus,
Sony Social Media Team

Probably the best sounding headphones that I've ever used for music. The noise cancelling is insanely good too which helps for blocking out any unwanted noise while listening to music.

Best headphones
|Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They have a great sound quality, theyre definitely the best over the hear headphone. When i was considering purchasing over the ear headphones i was considering both these and the airpod max, and for the sound quality & price point this was a much better purchase. The apps and adaptability features pushed me to purchase this over the airpod max.

nice headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very nice headphones. They go hurt ur ears after a while, if you wear them covering only one ear… but when covering both, they are very comfortable. Also, ur ears get hot after like 40 minutes. Biggest pro is the battery life, iv used them like 10 times now and still haven’t charged them ever since I got them… and it’s still have like 40% charge.

Superb Cans
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I knew these were great headphones already, given they consistently win over reviewers on youtube. Hearing them for my self though, i was caught off guard by how utterly silent the ANC makes your surroundings. I use these daily for teams calls and music while working. Excellent sound quality and mind blowing ANC.
