Sony XM5
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a must cop if you look for good sounding earbuds for a fair price. But using a different app to change the setting is weird. But overall a must if you are looking for something good.

Great for airplanes
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These do a fantastic job of cancelling all of the noise while flying. Sound quality is pretty good. The touch controls work great and had no problems with using Siri. Only complaint is the matte finish shows every fingerprint.

Worth It!
|Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing noise cancellation with very cool features on the app. Great price and as an employee with a store discount even better!! Only downside to it is for exercising it can be annoying to have on a little as its more fit for relaxing comfort.
