    These headsets were a long time coming. After getting them on sale, these turned out to be my favorite headphones ever. - ANC - plane, car rides, people, door bell. I will miss everything. It works. - pause and anc turned off when you speak to some one - that works - zoom calls and phone calls - clear - music - amazing I love these headphones

    I got these headphones because I love music and I hate outside noise while listening to music so these are perfect. Paired with the Sony headphones app that allows you to build an EQ of your own you can’t go wrong. Top notch noise cancellation, a pretty good ambient mode, speak to chat, and few other bells and whistles make these worth every penny.

    These headphones are amazing. And I bought them from Best Buy and not Amazon because Best Buy had this Sony headphone, the previous Sony model, and the several other makes all connected to their headphone station which allowed me to try every model on that I was interested in.
