- Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2024Color: BlueVerified PurchaseNow I can see and focus on what's around me. I have some sensory issues and ptsd, so being in a place with a lot of people and stuff going on at once is very intense. I both need the quiet, but not silence, in order to focus and not feel so overwhelmed and like I have to sit in a corner with walls at my back so no one can approach me from behind, especially if I was wearing my previous headphones. With these, I feel less vulnerable, less overwhelmed, and can concentrate, as well as participate more. They were expensive but worth every dime. All the places and things I can go to or do now, bringing me more freedom, with the ability to actually focus and see what's in front of me, is priceless. Less struggle and anxiety is most welcome. They are also very comfortable and come with a wide assortment of options when syncing to your particulars. Being able to filter the background noise or ambient noise; including abrupt loud noises or certain ones that can trigger me, but still hear someone approach me from behind or as I speak to them while they sit in front of me, without having to take the headphones off...is freaking amazing. They are the only ones I found that covered nearly every category, with even more 'little' options. Well 'little' can be really big and impactful for someone like me, so I make sure to appreciate it when I 'see' it. The buttons are just thick enough and raised enough to easily press without having to feel around and blend into the color scheme so they are not an eye sore. It takes a minute to get all the button specifics down but mild reading usually comes with all electronics, especially the good ones. I have not had a single problem with the performance and the case is very durable, looks great, and the portability is just fine. They're headphones and not ear pods, so they require a bigger case but this case managed to make even that smaller but does not harm the headphones and actually stores them comfortably. Having them hang on my neck is perfectly comfortable and I've worn them for over 10 hours without issue; with and without music. One minor inconvenience is that it can press on cartilage piercings you have but that is a small personal problem and easily ignorable. I also wear a hearing aid and these do not complicate it's purpose. When it's time to hear, it functions and aids my hearing as normal and is muted when my other ear is, so I don't hear the loud and background stuff or when my hearing aid ends up amplifying high pitched noises. I am more than greatful, as are my eyes, ears, anxiety, vigilance, family, and smile.

- Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2024Color: BlackVerified PurchaseI got my husband these headphones, they were stolen where he previously worked and never fully got a chance to use them.
He got to try them and uses them to focus or workout at the gym and they don’t slide off and are adjustable. Very comfortable for sure. He loves them and loves the quality. I am considering on getting one for myself!
You’re paying for good price for both sound and feel quality headphones. The Bluetooth connectivity is unmatched!
- Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2023Color: BlackVerified PurchaseThe headphones:
Firstly I bought these headphones to filter out my loud classmates. The noise cancelling is good but not extremely good if you want to filter out people talking. The noise cancelling is like if you put your finger in your ear, stuff still passes through and you can still hear pretty much everything. But if you're walking around in an area with alot of air and whishy sounds they're amazing because most of those sounds are filtered out.
The packaging:
The box and headphones came oily, and for 300 dollars I don't think there's anything this should be happening 😭 also the CASE IS MISSING.
Overall:
As someone with tinitus and sensitivity to sound I don't hear the white noise everyone is talking about. But if you're looking for something that's going to filter the sound around you even if it's not much these are for you. But if you want it completely silent i suggest not spending your money because as hyped up as these headphones were, and as expensive as they were these are pretty mid. And I can't really speak on sound quality since I never cared for it and that's not why I brought the headphones. However I will say sound leaks if you have it like at 30-40% but lucky for me I'll never have my headphones that high to begin with. But as far as sound quality goes on my part, they don't sound bad I can hear everything just fine so yeah. I'm just waiting on the seller to send the case or give a refund.and the headphones did come in the sony box.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2025Color: BlackVerified PurchaseOutstanding Sound, Bluetooth, fits great.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2025Color: SilverVerified PurchaseI was honestly shocked when I turned on the noise cancelling in my own home: I live in a city so there's always a bit of background noise but I long since tuned it out. It was so silent it was a little unsettling at first, but now sometimes I wear them like that just to relax in complete silence, or with low-playing music.
As for sound quality, get the app that goes with it (Sound Connect, free) and it will present you with a "personality quiz" of sorts to find the right EQ for you. After doing so, it makes my music sound better than it ever has on my cheaper headphones or more expensive headsets (I have a Seinheisser with an external sound card that doesn't sound as good!)

Color: BlackVerified PurchaseThese headphones are awesome! I had the previous generation as well and the big advantage for this set is being able to switch between two devices seamlessly. Great quality sound from Sony always and noise cancelation is brilliant

5.0 out of 5 stars Best headphones.
Color: SilverVerified PurchaseI had a Bose Quiet comfort 700 set of headphones. One day it stopped working; I looked at the option of fixing them. Found out there’s no option. I looked at reviews of best headphones available and they mentioned these Sony as being the best. I ordered them and I am pleasantly surprised. The noise cancelling feature is excellent; I’d say maybe 30% better than the Bose. The sound quality and clarity are unmatched. Highly recommended.
- Steve ShawReviewed in Canada on September 9, 2022
5.0 out of 5 stars Great noise cancelling.
Color: BlueVerified PurchaseFeel well made. Connectivity is good although the required use of an app is annoying. Sound quality is good, but was not my main reason for purchase. I have open backed Senns for music and they are better in every way. I bought these Sony cans for the ANC for travel and they really excel!

4.0 out of 5 stars My 2nd pair
Color: BlueVerified PurchaseOk so i'll be honest. This is my 2nd pair because my 1st ones broke. The reason i bought these a 2nd time is because i truly love the sound and fit around my ears. But please note these Sony's are known for going haywire and will start buzzing or whistling. Some say it's from too much sweat or water. Idk. I did clean out and dry my last ones when they started "whistling" and it worked for a bit but the high pitched sound came back. Keep that in mind. I decided to give them another try. You've been warned. This time i'm just going to clean and dry them more often.
