  • Mine broke as I was taking them off, and it's exactly one year after I bought them, so disappointing
  • Thumping bass and clear sound quality and price under $80 when I got it from Amazon ..... seriously you can't beat that deal for such an excellent pair of headphones
  • Would Recommend for anyone who wants quality headphones at a good price.
  • All in All These headphones in my opinion are the closest you can get to bose quality for a cheaper price.
  • I prefer SONY headphones over beats because of the great quality and lesser price.

Reviews around headset (4.33 of 5)

  • This headset was fine until it stopped working on one of the headphone shortly after one month of a gentle use
  • Such a good headset and for the price its one of the better one out there.
  • When I went to mow, I knew it wouldn't be as effective, but I was shocked as to how much of the engine noise was cut as I mowed.
  • Love this headset - VERY comfortable and fully over the ear.
  • Excellent sound quality over bluetooth of all things (used bt headsets at version 2.0, they were horrible).

Reviews around battery life (4.22 of 5)

  • The sound quality and bluetooth capabilities(although the battery life was weird) were amazing

Reviews around bluetooth (3.99 of 5)

  • A lot of the cheaper Bluetooth headphones are no-name brands I've never heard of
  • One of the issues with cheaper, no-name Bluetooth headphones is bad build quality, which was a turn-off in reviews of other headphones I looked at
  • Currently, I would recommend these to anyone looking for some great sounding Bluetooth headphones.
  • These are some of the best Bluetooth headphones that you can buy
  • If you're looking for a pair of headphones for bass and Bluetooth capability, this is good I guess

Reviews around warranty (3.01 of 5)

  • They connected swiftly and easily to both my iphone and laptop, as well as with the included 3.5mm cord

  • They connected swiftly and easily to both my iphone and laptop, as well as with the included 3.5mm cord
  • They sounded great, but poor customer service, poor warranty, and a broken product, warrant a one star.

  • The only problem with them is that when wearing them the ambient noise is cut down so much that sometimes hearing people around you when they try to talk to you can be a problem.
  • However i see no need to purchase the new model as these do a good job blocking out ambient noise

Reviews around bite (2.28 of 5)

  • Took a bit in figuring the Bluetooth hook up, but NO problems
  • The Bass Boost can be a bit much for some genres, but is a lot of fun for hip/hop and rap
  • Comfort was ok they are a bit too big for me but worked well with noise reduction
  • The Bass Boost is probably a bit too much, but you can simply just deactivate it.
  • I wish they could get a bit louder to compensate for quieter sources.

Reviews around plastic (1.99 of 5)

  • Only thing I didn’t like was the plastic on the side of the headphones which make it seem cheap but other than that great buy!
  • But one headphones is hanging sideways and the sharp plastic is stabbing my temple.
  • DO NOT BUY THESE, The earcup will spontaneously break because they are attached to the headband with cheap plastic
  • They are made of cheap plastic and you are essentially GUARANTEED that they will snap and you're out of luck
  • I got these headphones refurbished and when it stated "ships in clear sealed plastic

Reviews around customer (1.95 of 5)

  • i been on the phone with sony for 2 weeks trying to get a repair but terrible customer service
  • Good for BASS HEAD people who love R&B, Hip Hop, Dub Step
  • It's disheartening to see how many customers share this same product issue and sense of disappointment, and I will be taking my business back to Bose and other quality brand manufacturers for all future
  • They sounded great, but poor customer service, poor warranty, and a broken product, warrant a one star.
  • like I do (R&B, Hip Hop, Dancehall, Reggae, etc.

Reviews around month (1.69 of 5)

  • I received these as a gift and had no complaints until, four months in, the plastic piece which connects the headband to the earcup assembly cracked
  • I reached out to Sony for repairs but they won't help me.at 150 dollars these headphones should not break in less then 6 months
  • I'll be editing this through the the year,First month impressions really great with rock, heavy metal, and all sub generes of metal, the bass is good for EDM fans and the bass boost button can be over kill on other genres that's not EDM, trance, dub step, and hard style
  • I bought it again, but it lasted only few months, and exactly the same spot is broken
  • Fast forward two more months and a mainsupport arm by the ear cup has cracked.
