    Great sound quality, have been working great for me. Bluetooth connectivity is also really good, but the fit is slightly lose on my small head, so probably not a good choice for people with small heads cause it slips off especially during workouts

      Hi FarwaI, Thanks for the feedback. While we're glad you like the sound quality, we're sad to hear that it didn't fit you well. Make sure to adjust the headband slider accordingly to prevent it from falling off. Enjoy and thanks for choosing Sony. -Craig Sony_US

    I have suffered for years from the extremely loud bass music from my neighbors. These are the ONLY headphones that take away the noise. Literally life changing and worth every single penny I spent on them. My husband has the earbud version and has had the same experience. WORTH IT.

    I loved these headphones while testing them out on location. I have been contemplating buying these for a while and was waiting for a sale to purchase it. I got tired of using my airpods and they would pop out of my ears quite often. I like the feel of the over the ear headphones. I also enjoy the ambient change in different environments. Good investment.
