Noise Cancelling Headphones For Phone Calls

Have 2 other Bose Noise-Cancelling headphones over the years and I always felt somewhat disappointed in the quality of the noise cancelling, but figured this is what it is. Now I know differently. These Sony headphones literally shut down nearly all the noise where I can't hear anyone talking to me and priced reasonably, unlike the Bose or Apple headphones.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Decided to try these headphones as I've always been a bluetooth earbud kinda guy and I wanted some nice over the ear phones for flights/travel. Also wanted them for doing yardwork outside and having the noise cancelling while using power tools outside could come in real handy. Right out of the box and with a fresh charge, they paired instantly with my Android phone. No Bluetooth button to hit to put it into pairing mode etc. Downloaded the JBL headphone app and started in to discovering these babys. Being able to dial in the equalizer is always a plus. I'm not a fan of stock EQ settings. Classical was clear and the quiet parts had no noise or interference. Straight to classic rock, jazz, then podcasts. I have no complaints with the sound quality, it's excellent. I'm going to have to get used to using external phones like these, but that being said, they are very comfortable to wear. Not too much pressure on the ears, soft pads, lots of room to adjust. And as you can see from my picture, I have a HUGE head and they sit very comfortably on my massive pumpkin. Charges with a USB-C and using a 27w charger, they topped off in no time. Love the noise cancelling quality, and phone calls were clear and crisp. People couldn't tell I was using them during my call. Highly recommend these headphones.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am absolutely loving these wireless noise-cancelling headphones. They are the best that I have ever had. I downloaded the app and paired very quickly with my cell phone. The charge lasts a really long time for wireless headphones and they charge really fast. The noise cancelling is amazing. I used on a plane, in the airport, walking on the sidewalk, and at home. I guess the headphones automatically adjust to your environment, which is really cool. The sound was great in all these environments. I also used the headphones to take phone calls and they worked well. I also like the the music on the headphones pauses when you take them off. Great sound, easy to use, great tech, and quality product.

Best noise cancelling headphones in the market right now

The best thing about these headphones is that you can’t even feel them once they are on. They are super comfortable sound is great and because they are not plugged into your ear you sometimes have a little difficult to hearing when there’s a lot of traffic noise. But easily fixed by increasing the volume. It is not easy to take cell phone calls, have to to figure out which side to tap and how many taps and there’s a very bad echo and I found difficulty with phone calls where the headphones transferred between music and hanging up on my caller. Overall, for the purpose of listening to music while exercising, while on a plane or just walking these are great. I also like being able to hear noise around me because I am often on the street so I feel bit safer with them. And … As I said, they are extremely comfortable.

I use these headphones for phone calls, music and video streaming. Battery life is really good as is the noise canceling capabilities. I would recommend for busy individuals.

I am loving my new headphones, cleanest sound ever and a good noise cancelling.

These are great headphones and I really love the noise cancelling feature.

Great as Bluetooth headphones, over the ear wired headphones and noise cancelling.

Ive had several other noise cancelling headphones by Bose (QC35 II) and Beats (Studio Wireless) and I always hailed Bose as king of Noise Cancelling headphones. Now the only thing that Bose has over Sony is the durability of the headphones, my Bose headphones I could pretty much bend however I wanted and they wouldn't break. The Sony's are a bit more stiff, but the material is still premium! I originally went with Bose because of their comfort though, I like to wear my headphones for an extended period of time and the old Sony's (XM1 and XM2) got uncomfortable after a few hours. With the new design however, I can see myself wearing these all day! What does Sony have to offer that's better than Bose? - Noise cancelling (much better) - Sound quality - Battery life - Customization through app - Accessories (better quality auxiliary charger cords, as well as a good airplane adapter!!) - USB-C Charger!!! (as a MacBook Pro owner this was a must, I hated micro-usb so much) - Comfort? (I'm still testing this out but ill update in a few weeks if its better or on-par with the Bose QuietComfort 35 ii)
