A downgrade from the WH1000XM5s
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As purely a listening device, these sound great, no complaints here. However, the microphone quality has taken a huge nose-dive. Multiple people have reported that I sound like I'm deep underwater now. I'm not sure what's going on with them but never had any issue like this with the previous model. I never had to configure the previous one and I couldn't find any settings to improve the quality. Not everyone is going to use them for that so it might not be a deal-breaker for most and maybe it's something that can be addressed in later firmware, but right now if your intention is using these as a headset, look elsewhere. Another minor annoyance- one thing a lot of reviewers I've seen praise is how these fold unlike the WH1000XM5s- unfortunately I don't think this really adds anything to them and actually makes it a bit harder to put on!

Honestly perfect
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After trying out the Beats Studio Pro and XM6, studio pros are completely trash. I was never a fan of headphones until these. I ended up buying two from how good they are.

Gift for sibling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased these Sony headphones as a Christmas gift for my sister, and they turned out to be one of the best gifts I’ve given. The sound quality is incredibly clear and balanced, with deep bass and crisp vocals, and she noticed the difference immediately compared to her old pair. She uses them daily now for music, calls, and travel. The comfort level is excellent — she wears them for hours without any ear fatigue, and the padding feels premium. The noise cancellation is also very impressive and blocks out background noise far better than expected. Setup was quick and easy, and the battery life has been outstanding so far. Overall, this felt like a high-quality, reliable gift that was truly appreciated. I’d definitely recommend these Sony headphones to anyone looking for a great mix of sound, comfort, and performance — especially if you’re buying for someone special.

These cans slap!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wow, amazing ANC, and the microphones do such a great job even when standing directly in front of a fan and the air current. The 10-band equalizer settings make these a step a above what is already great out of the box. The smart ambient noise option is nice too, especially when walking outside. The dual bluetooth device connection works great too! I’m impressed and would definitely recommend! This is an all around amazing pair of headphones.

Best Headphones in the Game Right Now!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been looking for new headphones for a while, after always struggling to keep AirPods in my ears while traveling or at the gym. I tested Bose, Beats, and every other brand. But Sony has set the bar incredibly high with this model. Tuning into my music makes me feel like I am listening to the artist perform right in the studio. The quality and the noise cancellation are top tier. Would highly recommend to anyone!

|Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.[Employee of bestbuy] Alright the noise canceling capabilities are unbelievable, the ambient mode sounds nearly completely natural, i heard a leaky faucet while in ambient with music playing, the don't sound so airy, the bass is solid and the new background music mode seems useful. The ai powered theater mode (spacial audio) seems hit & miss but isn't terrible.

Great for travelers. Block all noise
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought Specifically to use on the plane for Noise Cancelling and watching movies and these work wonderful. It blocks off all sound and when needed, you can tap the headphones and hear so clearly. I actually amplifies the voices allowing you to hear people talking clearer than with out using them. If you are a frequent traveler then these will work wonders on the plaine/train
