Comfortable
||Posted .

Amazing bass, suits me better than the xm3s
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Suits my needs perfectly. I have these and the xm3 headphones . After using both for about 2 weeks, this the 900h were my pick. The xm3’s were much better at noise canceling and I guess a bit better in audio accuracy. But for me , these weren’t too big of a deal. For instance , I don’t really need noise canceling in my life, and if I did , the noise canceling on these with very low music playing will kill out any noise(tho the xm3s did do this job without music). Another reason I chose these, is because I’m a big bass audio addict. In comparison to both, they handled bass very well, but , the 900h dishes out way more(obviously), but I did notice the xm3 had more of a quick high punch to drum kicks which would bug me at high bass settings where The 900h had a softer but much more noticeable bass . Drum kicks for example on some songs were better sounding to me with the 900s. This is clearly not what most people probably want from all headphones , but for me it’s the better choise considering I use it mainly for gym sessions, YouTube and movies from my tv. I do read sometimes in coffee shops where the xm3s would shine in noise canceling , but i don’t visit them frequently enough to choose them over the 900s. So, if you want bass to kick and sound just as good in my opinion, go with the 900s. If you want a more accurate sound from headphones with top notch noise canceling that cost 100+ more , go with the xm3s.

Excellent sound

Great for watching long movies. The IOS app is a bit confusing and I cant figure out what value it brings, so I don't use it. But I would definitely recommend these headphones.

Best sounding headphones for music! AWESOME!!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If I could give this 6 stars I would. This is honestly the BEST headphone I've EVER HAD. For music, honestly it beats the Studio Beats 3, Sony 1000 v.4 and Sony 910n's that I have. I LOVE it, and I'm actually bought and continuing to buy more of these while they are available and on sale at Bestbuy. They are FAR superior to the Sony 910n's that are replacing it, and they just sound amazing. Great bass, a great Sony app that you can adjust the equalizer. (Best setting for me is all the way up to 10 on all sliders and 10 on the bass setting). With this custom setting, I literally can't turn it up more than 70 percent on my iphone 12 pro max, without it being almost too loud. All music sounds great on it, and honestly, I"ve made calls on my iphone with it, and the mics are close to as good as the Sony 1000.v4's. The only complaint I'd say about these is that the noise cancelling is decent but definitely not as good as the Sony 1000 v.4s. (They are king and honestly I can have a fan on in my room and wear those and you don't hear the fan, they cancel that much noise!). Overall, great headphones especially if you can find on sale. The only bummer of a thing is they don't come with a case like the 910n's, Beat Studio 3's, or Sony 1000 v.4. Overall though, I HIGHLY recommend.

Best headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best headphones I've ever had. I don't like wasting money on trying wireless headphones because sometimes it is hot or miss. You either have a hiss, beep, feedback or the volume is too low. With these I have no issues and sound is nice and loud along with the mix being good for calls. The app that you download to control the features adds a more personalized listening experience. You can even use the cord for a wired experience as well. Also, the noise canceling is more than adequate.

High quality headphones with benefits!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones. From what I can tell, these aren't that much different from the top of the line Sony WH1000-XM4 headphones, though other reviewers say that these headphones aren't quite as comfortable, and the WH1000-XM4 comes with a nice storage case. On sale during the holidays, these headphones were half list price and over $100 cheaper than the other ones, so I couldn't pass up the opportunity. Up until this purchase, I was always a budget headphones shopper, not spending more than $50 on one, but two recent pairs that I had went out on me, so I decided to splurge on quality. The side benefits of this purchase is I got a free 3-month trial for Amazon Music Unlimited and another 3-month trial to DEEZER. (The headphones come with built-in Alexa). I don't subscribe to any music services other than SiriusXM, so I'm trying out the two and learning what I want in a music service and whether I should spend the money. DEEZER is very much like Spotify but not as many subscribers, but it has a bigger, higher quality music library and is #3 in the world, though I had never heard of them. As soon as I signed up, the service made me feel like I was part of a club with privileges. Amazon Unlimited membership gave me a better library of classical titles than Deezer so I can research the best-sounding Beethoven's 9th, but the DEEZER search and playlist setting functions are much better than Amazon's. The two trial memberships were a neat side-benefit of the purchase,

Sound Quality great for walking
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a pair of Bose over the earphones that got eaten by a new puppy - and had to replace them. I looked for the best value and most options. I was not looking for anything specific - However, I ended up with this pair and have really enjoyed the extra features it comes with. Though I have yet to program everything - I am looking forward to having the earphones self adjust when I am outside and need to hear cars going by when walking my dogs - or when I meet a friend on the way and need to lower the volume to hear their voice - this unit allows me to use my hands for leashes and not for fumbling on switches.... glad I purchased these.

Thanks for the 4-stars rating! We are glad you like the sound quality and comfort of your new WH-XB900N headphones. We appreciate your feedback regarding the noise cancellation of this XB900N.
The noise canceling function is effective in low frequency ranges such as airplanes, trains, offices, near air-conditioning, and is not as effective for higher frequencies, such as human voices.

First Pair
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have used ear buds before but wanted something just for me to shut out the world and listen to my music. I caught these on sale and thought I would take a chance. They are great. Download the app from Sony and they pair super easy. The preset EQ curves and the ability to customize your own is great and very easy to customize. Wish they had a hard case for travel like Bose, but for my use, these are working out great. Sound is clean and will hold its own when playing loud.
