I bought them for 150 on the 19th or 20th. I have had them for quite some time and I haven't had any problems at all. I mainly wear them for gaming and music on public transportation. The truth is that they don't fit perfectly in my ear, despite the many tips it has to adjust accordingly. If there are vibrations, etc., they come off, but for general everyday use, walking on public transportation, etc., there won't be an issue. The sound is very clear and the bass is deep. The battery life is amazing, both for the headphones and the case, which is why it's so big that I forget what charging means. They are also durable against drops, as in the beginning, until I found the right tip, they fell off several times from a height of up to 2 meters. The noise cancelling is very good for me, it cancels out the sounds very well. The only thing that bothers me is the size in combination with their design, as they are a bit bulky and when you wear them, they are quite noticeable and stick out a bit. Apart from that, these headphones are the best I have ever put on my ears, I highly recommend them.

Extremely good for listening to music, unacceptable for calls. Very good fit in the ear as it has 6-7 different tips for different types of ears, quite durable if they fall from your hand, very good battery life (logical with such a large case), almost excellent functionality with iPhone (rare disconnections), very good noise cancelling which, for some strange reason, CANNOT work during calls. Specifically, during a call, the headphones are forced and automatically switched to "ambient" mode, which amplifies the external sounds of the environment, resulting in both you and your caller hearing all the surrounding noise, and even amplified! From what I've researched, it is supposed that this was designed by Sony so that the user is not "distracted" from the environment during a call and gets hit by a car, for example, because they didn't hear it coming. Funny explanation, and funny is also their performance for calls. Nevertheless, for conversations in quiet environments, they are very good. For someone who seeks long battery life and mainly uses them for listening to music, they are enjoyable. Also, with frequent use during sports, there was no problem at all due to moisture, sweat, etc., even though they are not sold as waterproof.

I bought the headphones at a price of 99 euros, which is their current price, while they originally started at 240 euros if I remember correctly.
Their sound is truly amazing, balanced in all frequencies and with good bass. I must admit that I don't have previous experience with headphones at this price level, but the differences must be minimal.
The noise canceling is satisfactory and the battery life, along with the case, is truly incredible.
Before these, I had some JBL headphones that would fall out every 5 meters I walked. Luckily, that doesn't happen with these, but of course, every 5 minutes you have to adjust them with your hands, if you forget, they will fall off. I use them for fast walking that I do every afternoon. Obviously, you don't wear them for running.
Now, as for phone calls, I haven't tried them in the one month that I've had them, so I don't have an opinion.
The Headphone Connect app that you can download on your phone is also very useful.
I use them with an iPhone and the connection is lightning-fast, while all the features work properly.
If you're considering headphones up to 200-240 euros, I think at their current price, they are really value for money and you will also save that much money.

I bought them randomly because I found them on sale at a well-known store, I trusted the quality of Sony and so I decided to buy them.
What I like:
1. They are discreet.
2. Immediate and effortless connection with iPhone, Mac, iPad, easy and fast switching without losing connection.
3. Reliable sound quality.
4. The additional applications that cover us in the capabilities of the preset and custom equalizers they have.
5. Volume, friendly advice, test them on high-quality songs and you will discover that they do not lack volume capability.
6. The 4 sets of silicone for (almost) every ear size cover the range of every user.
7. Battery life.

What I don't like:
1. The size of their case.
2. That there is no setting (maybe I haven't discovered it yet) to prevent them from charging every time they are placed in the case.

Tip: For those who are worried about them falling, there is a thin strap available that we can attach to them.

Overall, I recommend them, unless you can afford the price difference with the next model XM4, which, from what I have read, surpasses all the reviews

They are used with an iPhone device. Good case and headphone construction. The application is good, but it requires some exploration with the provided adapters. Personally, I consider it good, but not perfect. As for the conversation, I would say it is above average. Having tried several and previously having the Sony 700, the difference is huge. You can hear well and it isolates external noise quite well for your interlocutor. The ANC it has is possibly the best in its category, although I do not use it as the headphone itself isolates quite well. Its great advantage is music reproduction. I considered the 700 to be very good, although a bit bass-heavy, but the 1000 is the headphone that someone expects to have when listening to music. I have not heard Bose and Sennheiser, which have good reviews, but compared to Apple and Huawei (their pro models), they are superior. I do not include Xiaomi because from what I have heard, it is below average. The sound is balanced with incredible clarity. The better the file, the better the final result.

And now the negatives. Like all Sony products, it has an incredibly annoying characteristic. It does not connect immediately. To be precise, it takes more than 5 seconds from the moment you take it out of the box, resulting in missed calls. I also disabled the automatic switching to adaptive, ANC, and off depending on the environment you are in because every time it changes (and decides on its own), it has a sound interruption for 1-2 seconds.

If it didn't have these issues, we could be talking about the best headphone on the market.

Owner of these specific headphones for more than three months. I bought them for 150€. Before these, I had the Huawei AM-61 and I was completely satisfied.
Advantages:
1. The sound is incredible. Anyone who enjoys listening to music, it is a very good purchase. The way the sound fills the "space" from what you hear is incredible, you will hardly go back to something inferior.
2. Synchronization. There is no loss of audio-video synchronization. (Common problem with Bluetooth headphones).
3. Automatic pause when one of the two headphones is removed.
4. Very good headphone management application.
5. Noise canceling.
Disadvantages:
1. Application. Although it has 4 sizes for the headphones and two types of materials (traditional silicone and sponge-type), at least in one of my ears, it does not fit perfectly, resulting in me never feeling comfortable outdoors. Not even for running.
2. Connection. The first connection with the phone was simple, the next ones were a bit more complicated, but okay. A big disadvantage for a 2020 device is that it can only be connected to one other device. The headphones I had before could be connected to at least two (e.g. PC and phone) and when making a call, the sound would automatically transfer to the phone.
3. Call quality. When making a call while listening to music, there is almost always interference, resulting in communication problems. It can be solved by transferring the sound to the phone and back to the headphones, but it requires having free hands.
4. Shortcuts. Depending on the contacts made on the two headphones, there are different shortcuts, but it does not have the most basic one. Volume adjustment!!!
5. Battery. From what I had read, I believed it would last longer, but they barely last 3 hours. The case, of course, charges them relatively quickly, but you have to constantly keep in mind that as soon as you take them out, even for 2 minutes, they go straight into the case.
Conclusion: Really good headphones, I have never heard music like this before, but I bought them because they are also hands-free, so 3/5.

They were purchased at the end of 2020 for €149. The first experience is the impeccable build quality. Sony warranty..!!! Everything as it should be. They give you the feeling that they will last for many years. The accompanying applications are satisfactory. They were carefully charged and I eagerly started listening to see why they have such good reviews. The application is very good, peace of mind from the accompanying systems, and suddenly you are filled with music that you know very well because you have played them with various sources, etc. The headphones sound amazing. In Bluetooth, they are always the best I have heard..!!! The volume is moderate but doesn't need more. And just when you say, bravo, it's worth the money I spent, in one hour low battery message and in one and a half hours it's in the red. You think it's something I did wrong at first but the disappointment is huge.... Where are the six to eight hours, guys? Fortunately, as soon as the stores opened, without a second thought, they replaced them immediately and I bought a JBL speaker fully charged and I was left with the memories of a relationship that started wonderfully and ended quickly and with relief..!!!!

Well, as an owner for at least 2 months I have to say the following!

They are incredible! Especially now that their price has dropped to 150€.
I will start with the positives.
- Incredible ANC (active noise cancellation)
- Incredible sound quality (if you know the quality a song should have "320 kbps") [here the sound card of your phone plays a role, the BT connection it has, also if you use EQ (equalizer) for each different type of music]
- Awesome bass!! And I emphasize this because you can feel it even in low frequencies, even if the song itself doesn't have crazy bass, but if it does you will have to lower the volume because you will feel like you are in a club
- Acoustic! I can hear the other person perfectly and the other person hears ONLY my voice! I emphasize this because in case there is wind/cars/work/gym or anything, communication can be made.
- Size! No matter how big they may seem, they are not! They are not heavy either... they fit perfectly in any type of ears because they come with 7 different sizes of silicone! I saw comments that they fall out of the ears etc... I do 100s every day at the Olympic stadium and they haven't MOVED at all.
- Battery!! I haven't tested them until the end but I will tell you the following! 2 hours of workout/using the earbuds every day and back in their case. I charged the case once to 100% and after 7 days I needed to charge it again... SEVEN yes you heard right... and it charges in 1.5 hours max!! Now if you are demanding users and want to be with the earbuds for 10 hours a day I don't know... get them and try them
- BT connection (bluetooth) they connect automatically as soon as you take them out of their case in a SECOND!!
- If I continue to write more positives, the form won't be enough for the review I have to write so I'll stop here

As for negatives, I have only the following!
- if you leave the phone in one place and make sudden movements like (sprinting) at a distance of 10-15 meters (I noticed it when I was climbing stairs for leg exercise) sometimes it disconnects for 0.1 seconds as if it lags for 1 millisecond THIS!

I bought them at 190 and I would buy them again! now that they dropped to 150€?
there is nothing else I have to say!

EDIT: Update on the battery... after 7 months of use.

depending on the settings you have set through the Sony app (quality or stability) the volume of the earbuds, if you have ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) activated etc., the battery "plays"... I tested them all open with full volume and they last 2 to 2.30 hours max... (at 2 hours it tells you low battery and it lasts another half hour) now if you lower the volume, adjust etc. it reaches 3 and 3.5 hours [all this after 7 months of use] at the beginning it lasts a little longer... but it is expected

EDIT: Update on their use after 2 years.

2 years later and the earbuds are still going strong! Everything I have written so far still holds true, without anything changing! Also a new thing is that, I tried to "separate" the earbuds (gave one to my friend and kept the other one) and at a distance of 20 meters in an open space they played without any problems!

Well, moderate application and tiring after a while. If you are stationary or just walking a little, they are fine. If you are exercising, for example, they come out and even if they come out a little, you don't have any ANC at all.
ANC, which you all say is perfect, cuts noise, not sound, so you will hear people talking to you and you won't hear all the computer noise.
The music now has fairly good quality but does not support aptX HD. So, those of you who pretend to be audiophiles and write nonsense about headphones, at best, are foolish. My previous headphones are the Huawei freelace and they don't have a tremendous difference in sound. In other words, the quality ceiling is almost the same as Spotify and if you want to step up to hi-res quality, you need aptX HD support.
Conversation with others is okay, but only up to a certain point.

Overall conclusions. If, as a friend says, you are on a plane and on the subway all day, they are worth it for everything else, not really. If someone wants to exercise, they should get headphones with wing tips that never fall out, check out the Sony SP800N.

P.S. They are not suitable for sleeping. You can't sleep with them.

So far, all my over-ear headphones have been Sony and I am generally a fan of Sony when it comes to sound. I decided to try these, but after trying the buds+ and buds live first, I have to say I was disappointed with the Sony ones.

Even connecting them to the app is a whole process...a cumbersome system... With the buds, I simply opened the case and they connected...

They are nice, but the sound quality is very mediocre, especially compared to the buds live which don't even fit completely inside the ear like the buds+ and the Sony ones.

I gave them to my son to see if it was just me, but his response was "if I had paid 180 € for these, I would be crying right now. And it's understandable that they want ANC, because they don't block out noise well, you can still hear a lot of background noise..."

They don't fit well in our ears, at least not when we changed their cushions.

In calls, you can be heard well, but personally, they didn't work for me at all because they don't fit under a helmet, and I use a motorcycle for my commutes. I tried them and when I went to take it off, they fell down, the cushions came off, and they scattered... luckily I was in the garage and didn't lose them.

They are not suitable for exercise, if you run, for example, they fall off... speaking specifically about our ears...

So, they end up being used only at home and even then, only for a call, just so they don't go to waste...

For music, only buds+ and buds live... sorry Sony...

I have no words. I have been buying headphones for three decades and I am not easily impressed, but these headphones left me amazed. In songs, I hear notes that I didn't know existed, I understand lyrics that I couldn't distinguish before, the depth of the music and the audio experience is out of this world. In symphonic and classical music, it feels like being in the concert hall.

But the best part of it all is the ANC. Let me tell you one thing: riding the red line 2 or 3 of the Athens metro with open windows and all you hear is a slight hum instead of the inhumane noise you used to suffer from. Walking on Kifisias Avenue feels like there are no vehicles. The annoying neighbor's dog can barely be heard.

Extra bonus: you no longer need to have the volume at maximum to drown out the noise. With ANC, you can have it lower, more humanly.

The negatives: it is not recommended as hands-free for calls. But it wasn't made for talking on the phone, it was made for listening to super high-quality music and it excels at that.

Regarding the rest, others have already said it. Bulky charging case, probably average battery life, excellent fit in the ear (I walk almost daily for exercise for about 70 minutes and they stay in place), the app on the phone works great, impeccable customization. As long as the price is below €200 (I got them for around €175), hurry up.
