Just super, the product is made wonderfully, very satisfied.

I will rate the sound like this: among all the headphones that are worn on the head that I have tried, they are the best! Watching movies is awesome. And speech and effects, everything is very clear and legible and shake as it should. With music and an equalizer for any genre, there are no problems. Loudness is more than enough. The Bluetooth signal is transmitted quite far, being in the same room with the transmitter, generally easily and without problems, then it depends on the wall…

Pros
  • 1. Sound. He's awesome! )) Bass bomb! As soon as I came to the store and put them on 1 time, I realized that this is what I dreamed of and I didn’t hear anything better and don’t even want to look. 2. Convenience of wearing, both on the head and dropping on the neck, when you need to throw it off while moving along the street. 3. Quality and workmanship. 4. You can use it like regular wired ones, even if the charge is at zero. 5. Charging is enough for a very long time. I did not measure, but offhand for more than 7 hours without a break. I put it to charge at night, in a day I planted it completely only 2 times a year. 6. Li-ion battery (light, compact, rechargeable) 7. You don't disturb anyone when you listen to music. Neither you, nor you, no one hears. The soundproofing is just amazing!
Cons
  • 1. For 11 kilorubles, for which they were bought, there is no bluetooth adapter for the computer in the kit, well, on the other hand, they are positioned as a headset for mobile devices ((( 2. The wire that turns them into wired headphones is sooo short, like the USB charging one (a year later, I rated it as just right and even convenient, you don’t get confused in the wires, especially when used with a mobile phone). 3. Bluetooth connection only allows audio to be transmitted to 1 audio device. I was very upset that you can’t buy the same second ones and watch movies with your wife while the kinder is sleeping, without tangling in the wires, free movement and through the same Bluetooth transmitter. (But the problem is easily solved by the built-in wired connection, you go to any radio parts store, buy an extension cord (at least 5-7 meters) (100-150) and a plug with 2 connectors 3.5 (20-30) and everything is chocolate) Well, or you need headphones on the RADIO channel)) 4. Very fragile mechanism of torsion of the speakers around the axis. A year later, the plastic of the pin was worn out and the right ear hung on the wiring. I had to put it on hot glue (after refinement it keeps tightly and in principle it is not felt in any way, except that it is ugly (photo attached)). The advice to the developers is to make this part out of metal and somehow strengthen it. 5. The leather trim of the speakers themselves is chic and pleasant to touch and does not peel off, and the sound softens and the ears are not hot and comfortable, but in the inner part, in which the ear itself is located, not very much. A year later, it began to flake off the fabric. I would also like to see it improved.

It functions perfectly, nothing unusual.

The usefulness of the "Extra Bass" function is doubtful, as it rather spoils the sound. Has pros: Pretty high-quality materials and assembly (with a caveat *), moderately comfortable, good battery, AptX support, as well as the ability to listen via wire (any one will do - a standard 3.5 mm jack, not "recessed" and without a latch), Normal noise isolation . Has cons: Average value for money, you can find better options. The sound quality is also average (in its category). Design for an amateur…

Satisfactory product quality, good price.

The main plus of these headphones is, of course, bass, high-quality, juicy bass. Perfect for rap, rock, electronica. Medium, high normal, not wow of course, but you can listen. Well, now to the minus, I think it’s no secret to anyone that they break, the design is very flimsy, many don’t even serve for half a year, and for them to break, you don’t need to drop them, they just crack and one earpiece falls off, in the service, under warranty, wait for failure immediately, mechanical damage. Sony,

Pros
  • - Good bass, for basheadeds the most - Acceptable, not heavily crushed mids and highs - Keep in touch well - NFC
Cons
  • - Reliability, it is not

Disappointed with the purchase, useless products.

The construction is made in a purely idiotic way: even if you treat them with care, then in six months it will break! I did not expect this from Sony! And they cost more than 8 thousand! I do not recommend buying this junk! P:S. These headphones had to be smeared with glue to keep them, otherwise it would be expensive to pay for repairs.

Pros
  • Sound, bass, well-thought-out ambyushura, the ability to connect to a phone or PC via a 3.5 mini jack wire.
Cons
  • Micro USB, lack of Bluetooth connection to several devices at the same time and flimsy design.

Absolutely unusable product, not suitable for use.

They broke (the body, or rather, the right ear fell off) despite the fact that I took care of them as a son or daughter. Repair? No, we haven't heard. Parts not to be found! Well, unless of course a miracle happens, and someone will sell this "beauty" for parts). BUT! But, it seems to me, everyone dreams of finding spare parts (those poor fellows who bought this device, I sympathize). I will definitely never buy SONY products again if they fall apart in 4 months. But I can't live without music,

Pros
  • Sound
Cons
  • Frame

I don't recommend buying this product, there's nothing to praise here.

Throughout the use was pleased with the sound. But the case left a negative impression on the Sony headphones, especially since they cost 12tr on off, and lived in ideal operating conditions for only a year and a half! Now I will definitely not take headphones from Sony. A good product should be good in everything. I will probably focus on Audeze Mobius headphones

Pros
  • Great sound, mind-blowing bass with the ability to achieve overloads. Clear sound in all frequencies, warmed up after about a couple of months. Cool alluring design.
Cons
  • The body is deliberately very flimsy, Chinese counterparts for 300 are much more reliable, with careful use I saw micro cracks begin to form in the places where the rim and ears were attached, from which I realized that they had only a few days left to live, maximum months. As a result, they lived with cracks until the torn off left ear for 3 months. In total, they lived for a year and a half. now live, but with a broken body.

The product is of poor quality, I do not advise.

These headphones for me turned out to be one unconditional drawback. After about a year of careful use (I used it only at home, usually sitting at a computer), the right ear mount fell apart (I had to screw the bolts into a homemade metal plate), then the left mount fell apart in the same way. A few months later, the plastic began to crack below the mount with bolts. As a result, the headphones fell apart into several parts, now I glue them with super glue, but I have to repeat the procedure…

Pros
  • At first I wanted to describe thoroughly all the positive aspects of these headphones, and there are really a lot of them, but because of one serious minus, I don’t see the point in this.
Cons
  • Unfortunately, these obviously not cheap headphones fell apart before our eyes a year later, more in the comments.

Matches the description completely, very satisfied.

In general, everything is cool, the only thing is insulting, they promised me 500 bonuses. And they didn't give anything. I even wrote to support. Therefore, developed, if you see it. Do something, huh? Has some pros: I bought headphones, as the past ones broke, they were the same, but BUSH ones. Everything is great. Top sound, top bass, when you talk on the phone you can hear. And pretty good. Something you don't often see in headphones. Cons: There is one thing, but rather flimsy mounting…

Not all that bad, but there are minuses.

The design wants the best. I use Sennheiser vacuum headphones, which have been working smoothly for the 3rd year, so perhaps next time I will buy wireless Sennheiser Has pros: Good sound, noise isolation, a lot of bass. Convenient control, many settings in the proprietary application. Has cons: Before this model, I used Sony MDR 950 BT, they served me for 1.5 years, after which the swivel mount from one earphone broke. I turned to Sony's SC and they offered me to repair them for 7 thousand. In…

The purchase did not bring joy, the product is bad.

Bass boost is certainly cool, but too much, they stand out too much against the background of the main one. Listened to music without using this feature. I consider it a toy, nothing more. Pros below: High-quality sound, fit well on the head, stylish appearance, good bt signal. Got cons: The quality of the plastic is just terrible. The plastic on the shackle cracked after a year of use. I tried to fix the problem with superglue and duct tape, but the shackle quickly continued to crumble in…

I'm impressed! Exactly the product deserves your attention.

Close your eyes to the mount and buy, no matter how you can glue them together. For the sake of such a sound, you can endure. Definitely recommend to buy. Different pros: I won’t say anything new, but I’ll still note the most important thing. They are really great . The build quality is as if you have in your hands a thing that costs not 8k but all 50. All lines and edges are observed, all seams are perfectly even, tactile sensations are impressive. They look just as expensive as they cost…

The product is average, I'm not sure it's worth the money.

The sound is good, but be prepared that the flimsy plastic will break even with careful handling and as a result, these headphones will cost you double the cost. I do not recommend to buy. Plastic frank Chinese .

Pros
  • - good sound, you can adjust the equalizer with the application or turn on / off low frequencies with one on on the earpiece - swivel parts make it easy to carry the headphones in your bag - the battery lasts a long time, charges relatively quickly - nice appearance
Cons
  • As already mentioned in the reviews, the sleeve through which the wire goes to the earpiece in the place where the earpiece turns left to right is VERY flimsy. But the joke is that the plastic around the earpiece (very thin) broke in half, and now, as I understand it, an even more popular breakdown awaits me - this is the sleeve itself, replacing which with a pair on the left and right will cost 4-5 thousand, then There is a higher cost of the headphones themselves.

The product suited me, I will recommend it to my friends.

Of course, I am satisfied with the product due to the excellent sound, but it is this model that has problems with the mount, which cracks for someone after two months, and for someone after a year - like mine ((( In principle, I advise any music lover, namely bes and normal and good sounding With its pros: + Full-size soft ear cushions are very comfortable + level sound + B is out of bounds with the official add. prozhoy from sony + fast connection to anything + detachable cord + huge charge…

I like the product, the quality didn't let me down.

Sound: ears for fans of hip hop, dubstep and chatter! The b is very powerful, elastic, while not much dampening the rest of the frequency range. They extinguish, but due to the strong power of the filling, very carefully and very little))). With wireless headphones, the concept of "impedance" loses its meaning, keep this in mind, it all depends on the electronics of the headphones. On my device, a maximum of 70-75% of the volume and this already gives a mage of the temporal parts of the head…

Pros
  • 1. Sound. If you listen from your phone, then be sure to support aptX! 2. Landing. Very soft and comfortable. 3. Working time. 4. Appearance worthy. 5. NFC. Touching the right earbud with the phone for 1 second turns on both the earphones and the connection. 6. Improver. For a couple of tracks, you can turn it on, but not for long. Just OUT. 7. Can be used in pive mode through a wire without including the headphones themselves. The battery is not used.
Cons
  • 1. Design. I use it very carefully so far, but judging by the reviews, I can’t hope for eternal service. 2. Little things: incomprehensible pairing with several devices (I never tried it), decent audibility from the outside, inelastic joystick travel (get used to it).

A great option for this money, one of the best offers.

In fact, very solid and high-quality ears. The sound is excellent. Clean, but a little b-heavy. It is treated with an equalizer (in principle, there is even a built-in one), although as for me it is not critical and for some it is even +. On the wire, the sound is a little better, but everything is ok without it (LDAC and aptX). Separately, I note the soundproofing - schikarna, even in the subway you make it a little louder than usual and listen to an audiobook. Connects to everything (below…

Pros
  • Price (now for some reason non-sour discounts have gone on them) Quality (nothing to cling to) Sound quality (details below) Ergonomics
Cons
  • Takes a long time to charge Charge level display

Never buy this product.

in general, I wanted to first write all sorts ofcommplaints,comntact thecomnsumer protection society, and so on, but my time is too expensive, so I just turned to a person who is able to replace a broken hinge with metal ones. I found it on YouTube and am very glad that the headphones will be able to live on. ? v=HYr34menKNc&feature=youtu. Be In terms of sound, they suit me quite well, now the old working XBM-450 BV are nearby, while the 950 is under repair, I will not purchase SONY products…

Pros
  • Sound, good autonomy, the ability to connect via cord
Cons
  • The bluetooth paired with an iPhone 8 periodically stutters, the hinge broke after 5 months of use - a denial of warranty repair, moreover, the service center (Plasma, Hong Kong) kept a check (I noticed this when I decided to write a claim), respectively, further complaints and litigation are already meaningless - I just have no time to deal with the restoration of the check, I don’t have time for this. Also, SC "Plasma" did not bother to return the ear pads to their place and returned the goods in the form in which I attach the photo.

The quality is at the level, I am satisfied with everything.

It's been a little over a month since I started making use of it (I ordered it from Japan before the start of sales in 2022). I spend roughly four hours a day listening: four hours at work, four hours on the way to and from work (podcasts, audiobooks, and series in transport and metro), four hours playing video games at home in the evenings, and ten hours a week watching motion pictures. Before that, I traveled with a Sony MW600 headset, used Klips Image x10i earplugs at work (these are…

Pros
  • commodification, sound quality, noise isolation, autonomy, and the entirety of today's most cutting-edge technology.
Cons
  • work when charging or connecting via cable in passive mode, there is no case, and the cable is relatively short (with a proprietary connector).

I am amazed! It was definitely worth the money!

I am unable to comprehend what is being discussed in these evaluations regarding the acoustics. Nonetheless, the way in which one perceives sound is entirely a matter of personal preference. For one individual, it may be the headset that produces the sound of perfection, while for another, it may be an instrument for raping their ears. But I'll share my thoughts on the matter anyhow. For a very long time, I've been searching for a pair of headphones that would be the ideal fit for my ears. My…

Pros
  • -exceptional workmanship; -the ideal sound (from a personal perspective); -outstanding bass performance; -NFC; -a very good battery life.
Cons
  • -poor soundproofing; -a recording microphone. - But, the cost is quite expensive.

Impressions from the purchase are good, buy.

It's all a matter of personal preference, but the sound quality, whether sent through wires or wirelessly over Bluetooth, is exceptional in any circumstance. The bass is quite powerful, and when played via an amplifier, it drops to an amplitude that causes it to tremble. If you are trying to compare the volume from the phone with that of regular passive headphones, you are comparing apples and oranges. These two things simply cannot be compared. Sometimes the volume is turned down on wired…

Pros
  • excellent acoustics Bass outside the realm of fiction amplification of the bass, selectable No emphasis on mids Spacious ceiling height Connecting using NFC vogue and of superior quality Known and renowned brand Long-playing very
Cons
  • Inability to transition from one device to another in a timely manner Very fragile construction Too much give and take on the lever; this causes constant course corrections There is no explanation as to why, but picking up a call on the headset does not seem to operate. It seems absurd that a USB cable of this length could have been placed; it measures approximately 20 centimeters.
