Didn't not like
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price this headphones are trash. BEATS!... I was told that they sound better but Beats are better. The bass was terrible. Notherwise worth it.

input hole too big
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I do a lot of recording and I wanted to use these headphones hardwired to my computer so I wouldn't have to worry about the battery running down. Unfortunately the input hole was too big and the cable would not stay connected. I was very dissapointed and returned them. I double checked the display pair and it did not have this issue. I didn't want to take the chance of having the issue w/another pair so I bought gaming headphones that were not wireless.

Broke after a year and 3 months
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these in March of 2016. They worked awesome, but 3 months after the warrenty ended they completly break. I did not drop them or spill anything on them. On second they worked, the next they were completly un responsive. Called Sony and they basically told me my only options were spend $100 to fix $150 headphones, or buy new headphones.... So ya, dont buy this product, and probably avoid sony headphones in general. At least I am.

Best headphone so far
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was looking at getting the Beats studio headphones but after testing these and the beats, it was obvious that these were better. The sound quality and options was so much better. On top of it the price was only $99.00 which totally beat the Beats out the door. Highly recommended these headphones.

Awesome - puts Beats to shame
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I started off with the Beats Solo HD by Dre since were slightly cheaper but there was no floor model to test them out. I knew I liked these Sony's but figured i'd try the Beats. They were ok, not bad but not great. Definitely didn't compare to the floor model of these Sony's I had tested. But the floor model only had certain song snippets and were hooked up with the cable which disabled the bass boost. I got these home, charged them, didn't take much time since hard partial charge. Played my music and wow, still sounded awesome like the floor model. There is a lot of bass even with out the bass boost, but when the bass boost is on, wow! I noticed no distortion but also don't have them cranked up all the way. The music control works on my Samsung Note 3 perfectly. NFC connect is really fast, faster than the normal bluetooth connection method. Cushions around the ear are super soft too! And on sale this week for $99, total steal!

Good quality sound
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These Wireless Sony headphones are comfortable and the sound quality is very good. It was very easy and quick to unpackage and get connected wirelessly. The only complaint is that there is no case for the headphones included.

Great set of headphones!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have bought 4 different pairs of headphones and literally returning them because they a.) were not worth the price and b. not that great before finally settling on these! These really are a good pair of headphones. I actually got these on sale for $117.00 which made it even more worth it to buy. I was impressed with the sound quality and the bass. I read a few reviews of people saying the sound quality is too low but I am wondering if they realized there are two volume settings. When I first bought these I thought the same thing that the sound was low not realizing that yes you control the volume with your phone but the earphones also have a control on the side that increases the volume at the same time. Once I figured out how to use them then the volume was EXCELLENT. Again, I went from cheap $50.00 noise cancelling headphones to the BOSE $250.00 in ear noise cancelling headphones and I was not overly impressed. I almost think you can hear certain things more with the noise cancelling. These are NOT noise cancelling but they do a pretty good job of muffling sound or getting rid of little noises and if you use a white noise app along with your music going at a normal level you are good as gold! You will still hear things but it definitely does a better job of eliminating noise. They are also very comfortable if wearing for long periods of time. The only con I have is they don't come with a carrying case. Overall, I think they were are a great buy.

Sony Extra Bass Wireless OTE Headphones
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased 2 pairs (blue & red) of these headphones (for my boys) online in a Pre-Black Friday Sale for $99 pair. They were 50% off (same price on Black Friday) I was afraid they'd be sold out if I waited until Black Friday. What a great purchase and fantastic deal. So many great features. The boys use their PS4 headphones for everything so, I thought it'd be a great idea to get these for them to use with other things and then they won't wear out as quickly. I can't wait to see their faces on Christmas, they didn't even ask for them. Ordering and shipping was quick and easy. Completely satisfied with my purchase.

Best Buy for Headphones - Seven Years later!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the money, this was like the BEST BUY for headphones! I have been using the XB950BT for over seven years and the sound is great still. I'm replacing the ear cushions now. I listened to some $300+ headphones and for the money, hands down, this was a Best Buy!

Rediscovering my old music
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been using $40 headphones for years. So glad that I just purchased these headphones. I am hearing my music like never before. What a separation of instruments, I am hearing crisp, clear notes and clean, clear vocals. Just got a phone call a few minutes ago and that worked great. My wife didn't even realize that I was on the headphones while talking to her. Music stopped and picked up right where it left off. Featured packed headphones that sound great at a fair price ($150).

On Sale and Amazing!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Picked these up on sale this morning and have been listening to music all day and took 2 conference calls. The bass boost is very nice listening to EDM or ambient with a lot of low bass. Very comfortable and the controls are VERY INTUITIVE.. Was going in to try a more expensive brand, but the demo station and the sale sold me :) You can't go wrong for $99, much less the prior price of $199.

Great sounding headphones loud and lots of bass
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these at the best buy in Spokane WA. They are great sounding headphones. I used to have Beats and these Sony's had way better sound quality. They have pretty good Bluetooth connection, I have a Lunatik case and the blue tooth still is really good. they are tough headphones have dropped them and they still sound great. I think that they sound better than any of the Bose wireless headphones even the sound links.
