Think twice before buying this product.

All right, let's get to the meat of the matter now: Landing in the ears may seem like the safest and most convenient option, but after only two and a half hours, your ears will start to hurt, and grabbing this bandura will sting as much as the corner of your nightstand does first thing in the morning. You can feel the earphones trying to escape your ears when you lean down to tie your shoes. However, the issue remains unresolved despite the use of numerous replacement ear cushions. And this morning, when I pulled the hood up over my head, one of the earpieces flew off. In addition, the issue of whether or not these headphones would be suitable for use in the cold while also sporting a hat was raised. Second, the hours spent in the office. People consistently report working "for a very long period" in their writing. Maximum volume for 3.5 hours with noise cancellation! In contrast, I have eight of the Chinese no-name TWS variety, each equipped with a Qualcomm chip and operating at full volume. If you're listening for 1.5-2k, you can get away with 3.5 hours of headphones, but not 13. Somebody will tell me to off the noise cancellation feature, and I'll respond, "Then why are you even wearing headphones?" Thirdly, there are always these invasive interruptions! What a jerk! You can only really enjoy these headphones outside in good weather when your head isn't covered by a hood, and ideally you'd also be holding your phone rather than putting it in your pocket. At this point, even $4000 headphones won't let you down out on the town. Everything is fine and dandy in the room, but if you're not an owl and prefer to use not only public transportation but also your own two feet to get around, this is not the best option for you. In other words, the headphones don't function in isolation, but rather use the tried-and-true Master-Slave architecture. The main earpiece is actually on the left side, whereas it is often on the right. The right one allows him to sit for 20-30 more minutes, and all of the audible notifications are routed through him. Yet, disruptions usually only reach the right ear, or both ears at once. Thus, to sum up, I'll say this: pricey, heavily promoted dunces. Sony has been letting me down since the middle of the 2022s, but I keep eating the cactus and giving it another shot. Although wanting to purchase the WH-1000XM4 and Xperia 1 III, I am now seriously considering not doing so.

Pros
  • After reading numerous gushing reviews on YouTube, I finally decided to take the plunge and purchase a pair of these headphones in order to experience its aesthetic appeal and learn more about how active noise cancellation (ANC) actually functions. Equipment, build quality, aesthetics, earphone fit, and a clever app with a ton of settings all impressed immediately after purchase.
Cons
  • But, day after day, a new batch of criminals escaped and the problem snowballed. They may be subjective, but that doesn't change the fact that there are so many of them. The case must initially be stored in a bag because its exterior will quickly become unusable if not protected from the elements. Later I realized that most of the application's configuration options are basically marketing-named toggle switches. Though I haven't paid much attention to headphones' sound quality, I can say that the most of the ones I've tested have somewhat above-average sound and volume levels (this is both a pastime and a profession of mine). Whilst the active noise cancellation (ANC) was subpar in general, the performance was out of this world compared to that of conventional headphones.
