Sony WHXB900N Noise Cancelling Headphones, Wireless Bluetooth Over the Ear Headset with Mic for Phone-Call and Alexa Voice Control- Black (WH-XB900N/B)

SOUND QUALITY AND BASS, I own a pair of Sony 1000XM3 and QC35, these definitely have more bass. They definitely don't sound as clear as either of the two, but they still sound great. They are less “flat” sounding and more lively and fun. If you want your ears to vibrate like the Skullcady Crushers, set the equalizer to Exited and set the headphones to Arena mode, then crank up the volume, while nowhere near as much vibration as the skullcandys, its there if you’re into that. NOISE CANCELLING, I would say these headphones cancel about 60%-70% of the noise that the Bose QC35s and XM3s/Bose 700s cancel out (which is really good). I would definitely place these in the top 10 noise cancelling headphones out there. However if you only want noise cancelling then you might want to look into the Sony 1000XM3 or Bose 700. With the XB900N you will still be able to hear some outside noise such as loud fans, chatter, etc at low volumes (40% or so) if you want to block out noise fully it is possible but you will have to crank them up to 70-80% volume. I listen to them at about 40% volume and its loud enough for me, while other headphones i have to set them near 80% volume. BLUETOOTH AND APP, these are very easy to connect to your devices, hold the power button for 7 seconds then they go into pairing mode, then just connect to them using your device...no hastle. The app also works flawlessly and let me tell you this app is no joke! - You can change the noise cancelling level (20 levels). - You can set between amazon alexa or google assistant - You can change the sound to come from front, front left/right, or rear left/right. - The have an equalizer which lets you adjust bass, mids, highs, etc. It also comes with some presets if you want to just boost bass, vocals, trebble etc. This equalizer really changes the way these headphones sound, this aint no gimmick! - Surround VPT, I don’t know why this feature is not that popular but when you change it creates a feeling of surround sound, the settings are Arena, Concert Hall, Outdoor Stage, and Club. When you set the headphones to arena mode and you watch a movie it literally sounds like you have two soundbars in your ears, its insane that a simple setting on an app can make such a difference... these things sound like a movie theatre! I have owned many pair of headphones, and you get what you pay for. I would definitely say these are worth the $250 price tag. In a nutshell... Those who want a good pair of headphones and want to save $100 buy the XB900Ns. If you want basically double the noise cancelling, and a cleaner sound (less bass) get the Sony XM3s. Can’t go wrong with either, both are great.

This is my first pair of "good" headphones. Before this the most expensive headphones I had ever owned were in the $80-90 neighborhood. For me, they're amazing and the sound quality couldn't be better. The touch controls are great for when you don't want to pull your phone out and pick the next song or change the volume. They're comfortable and I tend to forget I have them on. The only con I can find is the weak noise canceling feature. If someone is standing right beside you and talking in a normal voice, you can still hear them. I can still hear a fan that's 10 feet away but it's much quieter. It dulls ambient sound more than it "cancels" it. I have used the app to max out the feature but didn't notice a difference.

I purchased these headphones as my first entry into the world of "good, noise cancelling headphones". Before this pair, my max spend on headphones would be around $25-50 (and that'd be stretching it) The ones I have had before would have decent sound, nothing amazing but still decent nonetheless and noise cancelling would be a complete joke. My office environment is fairly noisy and I commute on a light rail to and from work. In addition to that I was looking for something that produced better sound so I could better tune out the distractions and focus on my work. I didn't have the money for the top-of-the line headphones (such as the Sony WH-1000XM3) so my review won't be comparing these headphones to the top of line ones. I don't like how you have to reset the bluetooth sync every time you connect to a new device, but I compensate for that by only listening to them via bluetooth on my phone and I hard wire them into my computer by an audio cable. I do want to mention that the audio quality is far superior on my phone then on the computer as a result of the phone app, but my computer is a work supplied computer for work and not for listening to music so the audio is baseline at best. If we were to upgrade the audio card on the computer I'm confident it would be far better experience. I wish that there was some sort of water proofing, especially for the price I paid. I also wish that bluetooth paired better between devices as I would love to listen to other devices using these headphones. I've had some issues with phone calls while using these, the wind noise is much more pronounced and the mics tend to pick up everything around me. I once made the mistake of talking on a phone in the stairs and the quality was soooo poor that the support representative of the company I was talking to just hung up after telling me to call back cause he couldn't understand me hahaha (I have had many successful phone calls in the same stairs so I know it was the headphones). I do feel like I'm yelling when I'm using these phones I feel much more self conscious then I did with my previous headphones I used for phone calls The sound quality of these, especially when used on my phone with the sony headphone app on it, is AMAZING great Bass replication, the highs are not piercing as well. It is a truly enjoyable experience. Overall, I really enjoy these headphones. The sound quality is incredible, the noise cancellation is exactly what I was hoping for, and if I have something playing through the headphones (music, movie, audio of some sort) you hardly hear anything but your audio which is incredible! There have been times that I just listen to nothing and use them to help keep the office quieter. I absolutely do not regret getting these.

Noise canceling isn’t as good as the 1000 but still affective in a noisy work office. These definitely have extra base, I’m always fiddling with EQs to get my perfect balance but I couldn’t improve on the standard quality for me. Great value

Fone confortável e com boa qualidade de som. O NC não é o melhor do mercado, mas cumpre bem o papel.

Se você nunca utilizou um headphone com Noise Cancelling, é uma experiência única que te faz esquecer de tudo, ou quase tudo, que está acontecendo ao seu redor. O XB-900N faz um trabalho competente nesse quesito, bloqueando sons constantes como barulhos de chuva, ventiladores, etc, porém é quase nulo com vozes, para conseguir isso só com o WH-1000XM4 pagando quase o dobro aqui no Brasil. Quanto aos formatos de áudio suportados ele é bem completo, SBC, AAC, aptX, aptX HD, LDAC, o que permite o streaming de áudio de alta resolução em conexões Bluetooth. A qualidade de áudio é surpreendente, sendo possível ouvir uma boa separação dos instrumentos e das vozes, tudo isso com graves excelentes. Se você não quiser tantos graves é possível ajustar a equalização pelo aplicativo Sony | Headphones Connect. Também oferece suporte ao 360 Reality Audio, mas sinceramente não acho que seja um fator de decisão, pois além de não ter suporte ao Spotify, ter um número bem limitado de músicas disponíveis, cerca de 1000 até o momento, é algo que você provavelmente vai usar durante o período de testes de algum aplicativo e depois nunca mais. Vale ressaltar que na caixa vem um cupom para você utilizar no Deezer, Tidal ou nugs.net, que oferece um período de testes grátis. A qualidade de construção é sim superior aos fones de entrada da marca, mas poderia ser melhor, especialmente no plástico utilizado no seu corpo. Já as almofadas de couro são extremamente confortáveis e o arco superior acolchoado ajudam no conforto. No geral é um produto sólido e que passa uma sensação de produto premium. Os pontos negativos são o tempo de carregamento que é de aproximadamente 7 horas, Bluetooth 4.2 e ele não vem com uma case e sim com uma bolsa de tecido. É uma ótima opção para quem não quer, ou não pode, gastar tanto no XM4, ou até mesmo num Airpods Max, mas que ainda sim queira usufruir do cancelamento de ruído e de um áudio de alta qualidade.

Soy amante de la música, de todos los géneros, habitualmente usaba unos Bose Soundtrue, muy buenos pero no son inalambricos, y pues honestamente tenía la idea de que duraban poco las baterías, y el sonido disminuiría en su calidad, pues bien con sos audífonos sony son una chulada, suenan hermoso, el jazz es muy suave, le música clásica mantiene los agudos y frecuencias bajas de los instrumentos de viento, el metal suenan geniales los bajos, y la electrónica jamás se había escuchado tan clara, los utilizo con un sony walkman DAC y vaya que exprime todo el potencial de estos audífonos. Los uso todo el día en mis traslados del trabajo, en mis caminatas, o simplemente para relajarme, la batería les dura una semana, apagados sin bluetooth casi un mes (Si también los puedes usar apagados con el cable 3.5 incluido) Las esponjas son bastante cómodas y suaves, no se cansa uno, la cancelación de ruido no es la mejor, sin embargo por el costo es bastante buena. También es algo triste que no vengan con estuche, solo con una bolsa, yo siempre los cargo en el cuello, al no utilizarlo pero se pueden dañar las esponjas por lo cual recomiendo conseguir un estuche básico barato. De todo lo demás son una maravilla, y bueno yo los conseguí en una buena oferta casi a la mitad del costo actual.

Very good product, came properly packaged without any damage. Product charges fast and battery life is long. Wireless connectivity is good and fast. Comfortable cushioning as well. Bass boost and sound quality is good if you select “stereo” over “hands free” option on PC. Which means sound is better with headphones on than off.
