||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This pair of overeat headphones exceeded expectations. The battery life is fantastic, which also has fast charging speeds. The sound cancellation has taken a major jump from the previous generation. The headphones also come with the option to download an app which takes the enjoyment of the headphones to another level. Overall, worth every penny.

Worth the leap of faith
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great low end. ANC works great, especially on flights. Good battery life. Charges using USB-C cable. Much better than my old BeatsStudio Wireless or Powerbeats Pro (still best for work calls). So glad I took the leap of faith over Bose. Bose can claim top ANC but I'd rather have better sound with very good ANC and enjoy music and movies wearing a smile on the plane.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These wireless headphones are so comfortable, anfforable and great at noise cancelling. Wore them on a recent flight to Disney. So easy to pair and connect! I tried the new Apple ones in the store and they were so heavy and uncomfortable. Shout out to the sales associate who suggested the ones I purchased!

Great Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These have great sound quality out the box, but tuning it through the app, you can really add SOO much depth to the audio. The bass is real nice, and not overbearing, the mids and highs are super clear.

Not sure it's worth the upgrade, but still good
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my second purchase of the Sony WH-1000 headphones. I bought the XM4 and really like them, so took the plunge for the upgrade. I'm not sure I see a big difference in the new one, but it still sounds great. Maybe a little lighter than the XM4. If you like top-notch headphones, these will definitelu fit the bill.
