I bought these to replace wired in ear noise cancelling headphones, i travel a lot and have music on a Sony phone I do listen to some higher resolution music The grouse is that even at lower resolution the headphones sometimes struggled and music content was interrupted, this is something I have not...

I've never been convinced by Bluetooth for quality audio, but I've always found the cable attaching me to my phone a nuisance. For the last few years I've had a Sony Xperia Z2 phone, which came with a pair of very good noise-cancelling in-ear headphones, and these sounded great.

Sony's WI-1000X Bluetooth Noise Cancelling earbuds deserve 5 out of 5 – even if you prefer over-the-ear style headphones. Ray Shaw [email protected] has a passion for IT ever since building his first computer in 1980.

Probably the best ANC buds on the market

More about a wishlist than 'Cons

Aside from offerings from Bose, the Sony WI-1000X earphones deliver some of the best in-ear noise cancellation we've heard. Their audio performance is also a bit more compelling than the typical Bose sound signature, and Sony has an advantage in that you can drastically alter the sound signature to...

High-quality audio performance with sculpted, but balanced sound signature; EQ allows for sculpting audio to your taste; Excellent noise cancellation; Comfortable fit; Easy-to-operate design; Generous array of accessories

Sound signature not for purists seeking accurate; flat response

I dy this because i hav have the headphones an som time it's two big so by this one and i like it an amazing ina here headphones

By far the best wireless earphones I've ever bought. The noise cancelling is good and the sound quality is superb. I would highly recommend these great value earphones.

I've only had this item a week and so far very impressed with the features

Decent noise cancellation. Good Sony build quality as expected. Ability to plug into analog airline audio is a huge plus! A bit annoying that when usb plugged in, bluetooth doesnt function. Also, a bit slow to charge.

These kinds devices break, and I don't expect a long life for this new one; however, so far so good. It replaces a Motorola version that lasted about 6 months, which, for under $100 covered off most of the new Sony features.

Good sound, music from phone with aptxHD support sounds amazing! Finally we can forget the wires. Battery time also as promised. 1 disapointment - those earbuds can not be used while charging. Otherwise very satisfied.
