Sony Noise Cancelling Headphones Charging Time

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)

I prefer over the ear, noise cancelling headphones when I can, but I don't like taking them into dusty environments. These are perfect for working in my wood shop or out in my yard. They do not have active noise cancelling, but with a decent, in-ear fit, they do a decent job of blocking out unwanted noise. The sound is surprising for such a small package, and the charging case is very small and convenient. Getting the Buds paired to my Pixel 6 Pro was ridiculously simple: just open the charging case!

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.

I went into B&H looking for a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. The floor attendant told me that it would be mostly a toss-up between Sony and Bose for top-of-the-line equipment. I eventually settled on Sony because I was more interested in listening to natural voice than to bass and musical effects. So far so good. I am happy with the performance, which kept my ears protected during the 9-hour flight home.

I had an expensive wireless in ear headphones, but I needed something that was noise cancelling and didn't bother me inside the ear. Sony Wireless Noise Canceling headphones are PERFECT! It cancels out unwanted noise, I can ask Google to do things, I can talk on the phone and they are so comfortable over the ear. I love my new headphones!

The Sony XM4 headphones were so worth it! The noise cancelling is amazing and the sound is great too. In a study space where there is a lot of noise, these headphones really help me focus. They are worth every penny!

Those are the best noise cancelling headphones on the market right now i have the Bose QC35 but Sony did an better much better job

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Although I have owned a number of over the ear headphones from a number of different brands, these wireless noise-cancelling headphones from Sony are the absolute best! The noise cancelling function (this is my first pair of headphones with that feature) is no gimmick - it really works! Now I can focus on the great sound rather than external noise, and in a house with young children, there is a lot of distracting noise! The noise cancelling feature, as with many of the features, is adaptive, so it takes into account your surroundings which is really cool. I was blown away by how light these headphones are too! That they are lightweight combined with incredibly soft ear cushions makes for a really comfortable pair of headphones that can be worn for extended periods without ear or other discomfort. The battery life is phenomenal and the app works fantastically. You can even take a picture of your ears to customize the audio features with some of the high quality music streaming services (which you get a nice free trial). It really does make a difference. The case is also convenient and slim as well and is firm enough on the outside that it protects the headphones. Overall, this is an awesome product that is lightweight, super comfortable, portable with great battery life, and of course, offers excellent sound with noticeable noise cancellation. I can't thank Sony enough!

I am very happy with the sound and noise cancelling. They are also very comfortable and lighter than my previous Sony headphones. Worth the extra money.
