Not the quality but good enough.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had JBL for the last 3 yrs but got tired of their very short shelf life. I got these to test the Sony world of headphones and am not impressed. They seem to amplify the external noise and some audio files sound just awful.

would not pair with Dish Network Hopper
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Went through two of these. We took the first one back to Best Buy because we could not get it to work at all. The tech checked it out, and advised the headphone was defective from the factory. The replacement was the same Sony model, Bluetooth capable, but would not hold its pairing with the Dish Network Hopper. Every time the headphones were turned off, they had to be reset. We replaced this one with Sennheiser headphones that came with a dedicated transmitter. These worked fine with the Hopper.

Great sounding versatility
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First off I love the clean design of these headphones, they fit very comfortably on your ears and head and are easily adjustable. They pair very quickly with any Bluetooth device and if you download the companion app from either Apple ITunes or Google Play you can customize your listening experience. From various different surround modes to choosing how much bass enhancement it's all there on the app but not necessary to operate the headphones, an added plus. Now for the sound which is fantastic, if rich bass is your thing you are going to love these and the great thing is it's not at the expense of mid or highs, just overall great sound. They will also allow you to make and receive phone calls so you won't miss that important call. My only complaint is when making a phone call it's hard to hear yourself speaking which for me makes me perhaps yell a bit, others might not be bothered by this. Overall I certainly recommend them.

To much Bass
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As an audiophile, I couldn't stand the lack of sound adjustment these offered. The Bass is there, but with the obvious lack of higher frequencies it came up short.

Sony Bluetooth headphones - does size matter?
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sony XB95OB1 Wireless headphones sound fantastic. I am not an audiophile, but my gosh these sound amazing. The headphones themselves are somewhat large, but does size really matter? They are extremely comfortable when on. They connected to my iPhone 6 effortlessly and can adjust the volume and go forward and reverse through my playlist. I can answer calls as well. No problems there. I did try to connect to an older iPhone 4s and that took more effort but really just had to push a button on the headphones and manually pair to the iphone. After that worked flawlessly. No carrying case included which would have been nice for storage and toting around. Charged very quickly and the charge seemed to last. Not sure of the duration of the charge. Overall, these extremely comfortable and great sounding Bluetooth headphones and a great addition for my home listening pleasure. Would absolutely recommend!

Love these headphones! !
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are by far the best pair of headphones i have ever owned. I am normally an earbud user, but i really wanted to try these due to the xtra bass feature. Plus they are wireless so the freedom of no cable is a huge plus. The battery lasts a very long time as well. Right away i noticed the crystal clear vocals that you can only very from over the ear headphones. Then i tried the bass booster and fell in love! I listened to all different types of music and it all sounded amazing. Although i do not recommend the bass boost for every genre, such as jazz or rock. The on board buttons are well placed and make changing tracks and controlling volume a breeze. Overall i am extremely pleased with these headphones and i highly recommended them!

To bulky
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound is ok but didn't do it for me. Also, they are too big and bulky. I don't recommend wearing these to the gym or anywhere you sweat. That makes you not want to wear them.

Only one side works....
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For some unknown reason, only the left side works now and I don't know why. I contacted best buy and was told it only had a 90 day warranty. I had it for nine months.

Great sound, faulty bluetooth
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The bluetooth stopped working with these headphones after about 9 months. Luckily they also come with a headphone jack so you can use them like regular headphone.

Sound is OK but made from cheap materials
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One of the things that holds one of the earphones on broke with normal use after only about 3 and a half months. Called Sony to get warranty service and the person I talked to spoke so little English. She repeated everything back to me as I said it and she was wrong more than half the time. Well needless to say the email they were going to send me never arrived. The headphones sounded OK but they are really cheaply made. Would not buy again and would not recommend them to anyone.

Comfortable Headphones With Rich Sound
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have several sets of headphones and have been looking for one that is comfortable and provides great sound. These headphones did the trick. I like that they cancel the noise around you. Very comfortable cushions that fit around the ear keeps a firm fit with minimum pressure. . A nice added feature is an app that you can download that lets you customize settings on your phone. Sound quality is really good. Great base which is adjustable without the app. The only thing missing is a case.

Amazing!!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are possibly the best set of headphones I've owned so far. The cushion that cups over-the-ear is super comfortable and the Bluetooth range is exceptional. Every bass option that the companion app provided was crystal clear. Also crystal clear was the microphone when making or receiving calls. The headphones work well without power with the help of the included aux cord. However you will only get the full bass experience with the headphones turned on. My only gripe is that it doesn't fold up for easy portability, but for the quality of sound it produces I don't mind it.
