> 3 dayVery comfortable for hours on end, great noise cancelation and the adjustability helps while walking around a college campus. Long battery can get you constant use for over a week.

> 3 dayThese headphones are worth the money, especially since I got them 30% off. They charge fast and last a long time. Very comfortable and sound great. Every person Ive had put them on with just the NC on has said WTF?

> 3 dayIf youre in the market for great noise cancelling headphones that sound amazing, this is it. Can not complain about the audio quality at all. It feels comfortable and premium overall. Ive heard that Bose has better noise cancelling (although have never tried it), and these ones made me a little nauseous from prolonged use in the beginning. But I did get over that after a month or so and absolutely love them now.

> 3 dayGotta say, these are great. Now Ill say, I dont use half the features (Alexa, dynamic noise cancelling based on what you are doing very often) but thats just me. Battery life is great and they keep their charge when turned off (Ive had them setting for a couple weeks and still had 90% power, some of which Im sure I used after I had charged them previously). One thing I was concerned about was having to constantly re-sync devices, but the devices seems to keep multiple in memory. The phone control app works great and can be used when it is connected to another device (ex. streaming audio from you computer and simultaneously changing EQ for the headphones from your phone) which was a nice surprise. They also work great wired (there is an included audio cable), Ive used them as a monitor a few times. Noise cancelling is fully configurable and can be done to differing levels. If you cup the right ear (where the touch controls are) it will temporarily disable noise cancelling and pipe in external audio from the microphone (which works pretty well, but can be a little strange sounding). They seem quite sturdy, but I use them pretty lightly. Fairly comfortable, but not super-light. Can feel a little warm on the ears. They will probably contact the ends of your ears, but if you wear headphones you are probably used to that anyway. The provided USB-C cable is quite short, however, it does fit compactly in the provided case which means you will always have it there (Ive actually forgotten my phones charging cable but was saved by having this tiny backup always in my backpack). Its really only intended for charging (which doesnt need to happen often), so not an issue in my book. One very miner complaint is the mesh pouch on the cover of the case (which is nice to have I guess), but in my mind it should be on the *top* of the case, not the bottom. If you open the case the wrong way, you will likely dump out the contents. If you do this on a surface, the mesh portion will be down . Call it ID-10-T, but I find it counter-intuitive. Very, very minor.

Greater than one weekSony has always been my favorite headphone brand, going back to the classic MDR-V6 Ive had since 1987. They still work perfectly BTW. Anyway, these new WH-1000s are great! Smooth high end, lots of bass, and reliable and intuitive touch controls. My only complaint is that there might be a bit too much bass. The noise cancellation is great too.

Greater than one weekPurchased and used for two days before returning. Problems included poor sound quality (distortions even at low volume, fuzzy, hollow, even after tuning with the app), inability to maintain Bluetooth connection from more than a couple feet away from source, would lose Bluetooth connections if I turned my head (tried with multiple sources and distances), and people I spoke with using the mic said they were getting echoes from me and that I sounded far away. Also, the plastic construction while light/comfortable reeks of cheapness and seems fragile. The leatherette covering the foam ear muffs is liquid-thin and pitifully cheap; was already showing slight cracks out of the box.
