Just purchased the headphones. Technical specification great with great sound and specification. A limitation, however is that according to emails from Sony this can only be charged via a PC usb. This limits their use as a PC is not always available - what does one do then? Average overall rating given due to this limitation.

I bought these a couple of weeks ago and can say I am very pleased with the quality. I was disappointed with the limited functions of the h.ear on High-Resolution Audio Headphones so this wireless version definitely fits the bill. the controls are easy to use and the bonus is not having to fiddle about with wires!

My favourite all round pair of headphones for it's features and designs. They are not the best for audio that I own, for that I have the V-Moda M-100. But for features, comfort, looks, Bluetooth and ANC, this has it all in a nice package! So for these reasons it's my favourite all round headphones, perfect for the PC, mobile and mainly my travels on trains and on planes. The one design element I wish it had is something nearly all Sony headphones have but these do not - 90 degree swivel on the ear cups so when you're not using them they can lay flat on your chest while you have them around your neck. Another TINY feature that would be useful at this price point is the ambient sound - which lets in potentially useful sounds from your surroundings - but the MDR-1000x do that so I guess this model shouldn't feature that maybe... But I love them, they look stunning and the sound for commutes/travels and general listening is fantastic. But I wouldn't use this for editing audio work purposes like DJ-ing or monitoring...but then again these headphones are NOT made for that!
