Genuinely impressed!

Totally worth it!
|Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.[Employee of bestbuy] These are my first high end over the ear headphones and i am so pleased with them! I need to figure out the touch control shortkeys became if my shoulder hits the ourside cup it stops, fwds, or rewinds what im listening to. So thats kind of annoying. But i never read the instructions until I dont figuring things out 'naturally'. Noise cancellation is top notch.

Best Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the best headphones I’ve ever purchased. Ambient mode feels like you don’t have headphones on, and ANC with audio blocks out everything. Sound quality is perfect, no complaints!

Great headphones but not great cups
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound. Great base. Great NC. The only downside is the ear cups are to thin/shallow so it's not comfortable to wear for a long time. I bought a thicker replacement cups and now i can wear them all day.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best headphones i have ever had. sound is amazing, noise canceling is great. the sony app os intuitive, easy to use, and great for cutomizing the headphone opperation. i will say, hand oils and hair oils show up pretty obviously on the darker colors. so maybe go with the lighter one if that matters to you. I still prefer the look of the blue though.
