    Sound is really nice and cancels out outside noises. Wouldnt recommend for working out as they constantly slide off while exercising and the control buttons get in the way while adjusting them. Used mainly when traveling on planes or long car trips.

    Headphones are good, but charging is a problem

    The headphones seem good for listening, but charging them is the most inconvenient method made possible. Sony requires that these headphones are charged from a computer USB port, so this means a person must keep their computer on during charging since the Sleep Mode will shut USB power off, and this is a hassle to maintain.

    Got them for around $150, they are great, have amazing bass, feel very comfortable and have a amazing Mic which is the only complaint I have, might be too good of a Mic as it does pick up other noises around you very easily so can make the call nosey for the other person.

    the product broke within the first month of owning it, which sounds bad but i was able to return it because i bought the 2 year warranty. I recommend buying the warranty, it lasts for 2 years and covers almost everything that could happen to them, and only costs $30. It saved me frol having to spend $170 to buy another pair

    Great for Noise Reduction

    Not what I bought them for but they work well for noise reduction. I got them for my brother for his birthday so he would stop using my Beats - was told that these were way better than Beats and he loves them. however he can never hear anything we say to him because he always has them on and the cut out all outside noise..

    Works fine. Good audio. Do not recommend removing ear cushion to get serial number as it is almost impossible to re-install ear cushion. After two weeks I am still trying. Thinking of returning purchase to see if store can help me re-install ear cushion. If anyone at Best Buy reads this, how about some help.

    i have been a big fan of sony earphones and headphones, all of them are with extra bass. I'm gonna say that, for their price, sony has the best ear and headphones dollar for dollar.

    These headphones sound really good and have the added bass boost button to give your music a little extra thump. You can turn the bass boost off if you don't need it for your style of music or if you want less. The color of the headphones looks sharp and I like the black and red. The buttons are pretty easy to push for the most part and the volume switch is conveniently located under the right earphone. Connecting them to BlueTooth devices is easy and there's a headphone connection app that you can download, but I was able to connect my devices easily without it. The headphones are really comfortable on your ears. The padding is very soft. The only downfall I will say compared to other headphones is that they don't come with a case. Other headphones I've received came with a case to store them in. The charging cable is a little on the short size, but most charging cables are these days for headphones.

    Bought the headphones as a Christmas gift for a Grandson for music theory classes being taken in college. Discussed the gift with him recently to see if they were what he needed and was glad to her that they are exactly what he wanted and they are "great."
