Great Purchase
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Sony XM5
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones work great! I especially love using them in the gym. They really block out all surrounding noise. I use them while moving around a lot and they rarely slip off my head. The only time they slip a bit is when they are over my long hair. It is better if you move your hair out of the way so the pads make contact with your skin, keeping them in place and barely moving.

Worth it

Superb Cans
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I knew these were great headphones already, given they consistently win over reviewers on youtube. Hearing them for my self though, i was caught off guard by how utterly silent the ANC makes your surroundings. I use these daily for teams calls and music while working. Excellent sound quality and mind blowing ANC.

A little too expensive, but pretty good quality
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’d probably give these headphones 5 stars if their programming could reduce the wind noise, headache-inducing bass response when using them in a high wind environment. Also, the connecting bar between the two ear cups can feel pretty hard and heavy if you don’t adjust them right. But hey, literally everything else is fantastic. The sound quality, outside of the wind noise thing, whether for music or podcasts is above reproach. If these were $250 they’d be a no-brainer.
