Noise Canceling
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones that cancel noise really well. Perfect for sleeping because of their light weight. Sad when I use the headphones the headstrap doesn't go any tighter or shorter as I have a skinny shaped head and am 6ft tall.

Really good sound but flimsy and expensive
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There are a lot of reviews suggesting these headphones are lacking in durability. I agree with this. I had to get a replacement in the 1st year because one of the speakers were damaged. I had exclusively used the headphones at my office job without ever dropping them or transporting them. The replacement pair I got with the warranty about a month ago are still working normally. When they work, they sound great, though I do find the construction rather flimsy for the price point. I also own Bose QC45 and I find them to be much sturdier with similar sound quality. I will say the noise cancelling on the Sony headphones is significantly better.

Sony headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very nice headphones, but takes a while to learn all the features entirely. I don't like how to melody is separated from the base on each ear cusp. The ear cusps can get very hot and a little itchy if wearing for 4 hours or more. Battery life is great Fantastic bluetooth and noise cancelation though. The look of these headphones are very nice.
