Sony WH-H900N h.Ear on 2 Wireless Over-Ear Noise Cancelling High Resolution Headphones (Black/Grey) (Renewed)

I have used noise cancelling headsets for a number of years. I was hopeful that this Sony unit would be more comfortable than the industrial ones I have been using. More comfortable, yes, as effective, no. I tested this against a passive (non-cancelling) headset and found the noise abatement the same. The instructions don't tell how to turn the unit on...I looked 3 times and am functionally literate..could not find how to turn on until I did web search. The listing on Amazon does not mention that you have to use a computer to charge the unit and, while charging, the headset will not operate. I wanted to use this in the car; if the battery is depleted I would have to have a laptop to charge it and it would be non-functional while charging. Not acceptable in the auto.

I bought the refurbished version of these headphones. I highly recommend electronics refurbished by manufacturers or retailers who stand behind their work. Refurbished (different, and better than, "reconditioned") saves money with no loss in quality. I wear bluetooth hearing aids; so, the wireless connection is redundant in my case (nevertheless, the headphones pair easily and the sound quality is excellent). What I really wanted was noise cancelling of aircraft engine noise that makes it very difficult to listen to the dialog of in-flight movies and tv shows. I am very pleased by how well this headset accomplishes that task. The roar of the engines is reduced to a mere murmur that is easily ignored. I enjoyed two movies on my most recent flight. The manual indicates that once the headphone battery is fully charged, it should provide over 20 hours (it claims even more, but you should get at least that much) of listening. This week, I'll be flying on smaller aircraft that often are even noisier than large models. If the experience requires any change in my opinion, I'll edit this review.

For the last 45 days, there have been only good things I need to say. Wow. for the money these headphones bring so much to the experience when listening to an excellent pair of headphones. I had some Skullcandy wireless and they were good but so bad when it came to functionality and fail. I've already made a youtube video about my experience but it's time to update The build quality is good for the price as the headphones are super flexible and the wireless functions work like the ease that's in cheese, LOL The Sound is amazing and does always has a surprise when listening to another genre of music. Noise cancellation is just perfect and I even got into an electric scooter accident - Yes, that's also in my youtube video. For editing video, they work great when connected to an audio interface device (3.5mm in use) Wirelessly they work with my laptop and iPhone 6s and now iPhone X from even four rooms away "be sure to be in the same area". Charging the headphone are times quick or long but that just depends how long are ou listening to music with the headphones. Time is a fact here and you should time your usages. In my experience, I got about 31-32 hours of playback when fully charged. There will be some discomfort around the ears if you do have this on for long periods of time. "To make it clear, if you have the headphones over the head for more than 2-4 hours you will feel a slight discomfort just around the tip of the ear" This is coming from an average medium-size ear type. Phone calls are clear and vocals are good on other users to end when listening to me talk. I'm having a great experience with the Sony and please do more research when looking for a new type of headphone.

If you work in a library & don’t want to hear the air conditioning, these are fine. If you ride the bus & don’t want to hear the engine or the woman screaming into her phone or her screaming children, these are rubbish.

Amazing! Arrived as I was trying to read the paper on my front porch while my neighbor was having a tree removed less than thirty yards away from me. Chain saws, branch grinders, leaf blowers, heavy machinery, stump grinder-disappeared! Took lass than 10 seconds to pair with iPhone. And sound quality is quite good.

I like the sound quality when I am in a quiet area or outside. The headphones are also super comfortable. Unfortunately, on hotter days my ears were super sweaty when I took them off. This might be an issue with all over-ear headphones although I don't recall this with my previous Beats. The noise-cancelling function isn't the best. On the train, it definitely helps reduce the noise but you can still faintly hear a lot of the train track noises and people. It feels more like the ambient sound function. The control on the headphones is a neat function that I didn't realize how much I would like. Its great for changing songs or adjusting volume without taking out your phone on a crowded train.

This works stunningly, i had trouble connecting it to my HP Spectre x360 for some reason but it's an issue with the laptop not the head phones. Everything else connects to it with no issue at all. The sound is awesome as well. I've heard no distortion, the muffs fit on my ears perfectly and don't cause them to sweat. I don't feel any discomfort from the top bar resting on my head, i get awesome range including walking behind concrete walls, and the batteries last really long. I have not timed it, but the head phones last longer than i do and some of my sessions go for hours. I really like these headphones
