These are everything!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m in love! I always loved Sony but I had studio beats for the longest time. I like more of a bass sound. But today I said bye to my studio beats 3. And you can’t beat the sale right now for 148$. Only down fall is it comes with a bag verse a hard carrying case like the beats.

Simple, good sound
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are a good, sturdy pair of bluetooth headphones. Noise cancelling while listening to something is good. I like the adaptive sound control option. However it is hard to switch the connection to different devices. If I connect these to my laptop, I will have to delete the app on my phone and redownload it to be able to reconnect them to my phone. So they are hardly versatile. Good if using for just one device.

A great value. Great sound a good price.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My only complaint is that volume control is a finger swipe instead of a button. I constantly change to the next song instead of volume, but I am a slow learner

Best bang-for-your-bucks headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Perfect study partner! Especially in loud coffee shops, this helps drown out the noise around me with the added help of ambient sound for when people need to get my attention. It is worth every penny in my book. Sony just makes very high quality products.

Rivals the Bose Quiet comfort. Love them.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been a fan of the bose quiet comfort line and I saw these on black friday sale for 100 off at 119 and decided to try them. Glad I did. I can't tell any difference in sound or noise cancel and I think about that price and smile every time I put them on.

Great value when on sale
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased these headphones on sale at $125, and they are a great value at that price. Sound quality and noise-cancelling are good but definitely one step below Sony's top of the line headphones. I would rate them 5 stars for value if on sale at $125, and 4 stars otherwise.

Good headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are very good sounding headphones. They play very loud with excellent crisp highs and decent lows. Only 4 stars because the noise canceling is not that good with this model, so if that is not important i recommend these. I got these on sale for 138.00 so for that price they are decent, i would look not pay more than that.
