These headphones are very good and offer even more than I thought in terms of features but you need to download the app to take full advantage of it, and your options are limited to the Android and iOS apps. Not a problem for me but part of why 4 stars out of 5. Why is there no Win10 app? The sound is very good though, especially after installing it with an app that lets you set the audio equalizer to some preset or custom settings (my pick). The default setting, as advertised, is extra bass, almost too much, but setting it up was easy enough and very clear. You also have the option of using these headphones without noise cancellation, with noise cancellation, or one of my favorites, Ambient Mode, which detects and amplifies spoken sounds so you don't have to yell at whoever is talking to you. Even better, the app allows Ambient Mode and Study Mode to adapt to your surroundings, even taking room size and other factors into account. Another feature I like, although I prefer not to use, is the ability to interact with Alexa or Google. To play. Warning, if you choose to configure with Alexa, your environment/suppression switch will be changed to Alexa or Google mode, and you'll need an app to reset that button. There are a few standard features that all noise canceling headphones have that I won't mention here because they just work fine as they should. However, it's worth noting that the battery life is pretty good so far, although time will tell. history is here. All in all, I'm impressed with what's on offer at a price that's half what you'd pay for some big name noise-cancelling headphones, and certainly better than the cheaper versions I've seen. I'd love to see a better guide as what comes with it relies on pictures to tell the story, but you can download a PDF version of the FAQ online which is more than enough to get you over it. If Sony would add a PC app and manual with a better description of the features, that would be a 5 star rating as the features and sound quality are superb!
