In regard to the cracking issue, I have not had any issue at all with normal use with these breaking

These headphones appear to have cracking issues which I asked about, namely if they would be covered, according to a sony rep named Jay they would not

It now has a battery life that competes with regular non-noise-canceling headphones; noise-canceling technology has gotten better; and the band-cracking issue is something I'm hoping Sony has fixed by now.— UNBOXING

The whole cracking issue appears to have been fixed by Sony; no a single scratch on the foam supports

I have not heard of any cracking issues, and the headband feels slightly stronger to me

Yes, they definitely have a cracking issue

The problem is that it’s heavier but the issue i believe is that it’s not evenly distributed which causes pain on my temple even for a short time.shame, because the sound is better and usb-c! in the end, though

USB C for recharge is better for me, battery life is a touch longer, padding on band is a little firmer, all good

USB-C instead of micro is a vast improvement

(if you're wondering why I can't use that cable because it's micro usb and these headphones use usb c

Which ever one you get, you can't go wrong c:

The sound is great as well (remember, I'm not an audiophile) and I generally listen to pop, classical music, R&B, and modern instrumental

I like them and they work good with phone calls as well A+

I’m not going to say that these sound nearly as good as most of my wired headphones, but for everyday-on-the-go-beat-them-up-with-ANC these are exciting.

Still working as it was brand new

And the touch controls work as well as you can expect them to work

Although this technology has greatly improved, the resulting sound quality will never be as good as without ANC due to the difficulty in not cutting frequencies that were part of the music

One other great feature is being able to leave my phone to walk away and the sound is just as beautiful as if I were near it or it with me

and I found that the Sony wire was better quality and longer in length than the one that comes with the QC.- Easy to use straight out of the box - where as with the QC I had to fumble with it a bit before figuring out all the buttons

But other wise I love these headphones other then that small complaint.
