"Wow, life has been changed," one five-star review reads. "AirPods, who?"

"The sound is killer. Real depth," another happy customer said. "Great bass that doesn't kill the lows."

"They are insanely good! Sound is at par with some over-the-ear headphones," a third wrote. "Better than the AirPods and the immediate competition. Noise cancelling is really impressive and at par with the Bose Quiet Comfort and slightly better that the AirPods 3 Pro that my wife uses.

"Finally, comfort is top as well. They seem to be staying in the ear if you choose the right tips. Well done, Sony. For us Android users, it's a no brainer. I guess iPhone users will love them too."

So, where can you buy them, and how much do they cost? Find out more below.

"These are superb. Best sound quality I've had," one review reads. "Far more secure and comfortable than their previous models. 100 percent buy them. Although, quite pricey."

Another customer shared, "Just fantastic. Upgrading from the WF-1000XM4. No regrets at all."

"I listen to a lot of music when walking, particularly ambient music, so it is important to get a rich, detailed sound and these Sonys give me that in abundance," a third said.

"These really are stunning buds and I would challenge anyone to get a better set for the same price point. From presentation, charging, app and most importantly in use, they do not fail to deliver. Sound is top notch."
