I use these for my commute to College. Just don't use the noise cancelling for so long or else your head will hurt afterwards. Love them!! The padding is very comfortable. After a couple of times using them your head won't hurt as much.

You can't get any better than this in terms of noise cancelling for the value of money that you pay. Just one triple a battery easily lasts you up to 4-5 days of long use out of these (which is something I praise sony for, it's excellent battery life). Noise cancelling is great for blocking background noise like fan noise, it also reduces human conversations by a lot. The bad points that aren't really deal breakers, but they are some gripes that I have with the headphones. These are on-the-ear headphones. They are comfortable to wear for a short period of time. After an hour or so of wearing them, they get a bit uncomfortable to use. Also, noise-cancelling headphones are very sensitive to wind. Not something that can be improved since all noise-cancelling headphones are affected by this. Will buy these again whenever my current pair breaks (had them for over 2 years without any issues whatsoever)... Read More  Hide

I bought these headphones at an airport for $40 and I was really happy with the quality for such a low price. I had forgotten my headphones at my house and didn’t want to invest in expensive headphones. I wrote this review to explain that Sony makes good headphones. Although I wouldn’t recommend these to someone looking for an amazing headphones I would say that these could be the best headphones for this price. I think equalizer is at a nice spot and the comfort level is good but noise canceling is way out of the game. You will hardly notice it. But that doesn’t change my opinion about the product because for the price noise canceling would be to much. To wrap it up if you want cheap, reliable, and accurate value headphones, buy these....

I had loaned my daugter an older set of noise cancelling headphones which never got returned and saw this set on sale at Target. I figured, well for the money, It's a great price. Got them out of the box and turned the NC on and wasn't bad. The thing that really blew my mind was the sound of these little phones. They play solid, loud, clear and good tight bass making these almost perfect. Also they are great for younger kids as they are a bit smaller and won't keep falling off. I was so amazed after comparing to other headphones I have that cost double the price that I started using these all the time. they wear well and comfortable on the ears after long listening periods. I highly recommend these if you are looking for a good set of phones that are affordable. Sony has alays made the best products. Do yourself a favor and check these out before you shell out big money on other brands.... Read More  Hide
