Posted .Hi RS87,
We regret to hear that you are not satisfied with the headphones. Your feedback is extremely important to us and is very much appreciated. For optimum performance, make sure that the software version of the headphones is up-to-date (via the Sony Headphones Connect app).
For pairing issues, please refer to these troubleshooting steps:
-Bring the headset and the Bluetooth device within 1 m (3.2 ft) from each other.
-When pairing a device for the first time after purchase or after initializing or repairing the headset, turn on the headset and the headset automatically enters pairing mode.
When you pair a second or subsequent device (the headset already has pairing information for other devices), press and hold the (power) button for about 5 seconds or more to enter pairing mode manually.
-Restart the connected device such as a smartphone or a computer you use, and pair the headset and the device again.

Usage hours may vary depending on the settings for the headset functions and usage conditions. If you set the following functions, the available operating time of the battery becomes short:
-Sound quality mode during Bluetooth playback: Priority on sound quality
-Noise canceling function/Ambient Sound Mode
-Equalizer
-DSEE
-Function to launch the voice assistant by your voice
If you run the above settings at the same time, the available operating time of the battery becomes even shorter.

Bluetooth Disconnect
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bluetooth issues occur where headphones disconnect after 5-10 minutes. Firmware 1.0.8 appears to be the cause and affects all cell phone types. Stay away until Sony can fix their buggy software.

happy headphone handler
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm SO glad I bought these headphones. I needed headphones that (1) had noise canceling, (2) were comfortable on the ears because I have cartilage piercings, (3) had a long battery life, (4) and less than $150. These headphones check all the boxes. Two notable cons: the headphones don't come with a case so I'll have to buy one. For some reason, while I played my music, there would be occasional pauses and I hadn't experienced this with any of my other headphones. The headphones stopped doing this since their last charge so I'm hoping it was just my phone or a glitch. Other than that, I'm happy with my purchase!

Lightweight and comfy!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Lightweight and comfortable! I resisted buying new headphones after my super lightweight wired set finally died because all the other sets I've tried have been far too heavy or expensive. This pair is wonderfully lightweight so I don't get headaches wearing them, and I love that I can adjust the noise cancelling so my ears don't feel smothered. The sound quality is excellent as is the Bluetooth distance, and I can say that this is an excellent purchase.

They were very helpful in blocking out plane noise, and the sound was great for audiobooks and music. They seem to hold a charge pretty well and are comfy on my ears/head.

The battery is much, much longer in comparison to the airpods I've owned previously and only need a charge every few days despite me using them for up to 8 hours a day.
