    The sound is great and noise canceling does a good job for the most part. It needs some work on audio only. Music ANC is very good.

    I bought these Sony headphones for myself for a long trip and then a 2nd pair for my wife and we both enjoyed the a little more quiet during our flights over seas and back. I like that we can update the headphones and control them with the app on our phone. Easy peazy purchase at Best Buy
