Smartest Sony Gadget
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Omg what a master piece these headphones are. Very comfortable you feel as you if you are not wearing them, very light in weight. Sound quality is exceptional. Noise cancellation performance is excellent. I almost wear this 8hr a day when I work and it’s easy when you are in meetings, and when you are off meetings it’s blocks the background noise and gives an additional level of comfort to your ears and you’ll not be distracted easily.

Sony headphones WH1000XM4
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are very good headphones but I bought them over a year ago. Sony makes very good products. I don't use them much anymore ever since I discovered earbuds. But when I did I was happy with them. Very full sound. Nice bass.

Great sounding and comfortable
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Noise cancelling is not quite as good as the WH1000XM5, but the sound is on par, if not better, they feel more sturdy, collapse smaller into the case, and (for me at least), they are more comfortable when wearing for long periods of time (ie several hours). I compared a lot of wireless over the ear noise cancelling headphones from Beats, Bose, Sony, JBL, Apple, and SkullCandy. Sound wise, these rated towards the top of the list, clear strong bass, matched evenly with the mid and highs, easily adjustable in the app when using with your phone, and sound great connected to my PC, which I use them with most of the time for work (both listening to music and for zoom or teams meetings) for 4-8 hours a day.

Excellent Bluetooth headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been wearing Sennheiser HD280 Pro headphones, which sound great, but I needed something wireless and more feature rich for work use. I ordered the Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones based on a co-workers recommendation, and I am very glad I did. Sound - The audio quality is great for both voice and music. My HD280s are described as having a neutral audio profile, which is good for my studio use. The WH-1000XM4s have a more full profile to my ears, with a bit more bass and mid range. I like the audio profile, but it's easily adjustable if you don't. Comfort - These are very comfortable to wear for long periods of time. I have a large head (size 8) and these fit me fine. My ears get hot with the HD280s, but I have no problem wearing these all day (with a few breaks). Features - I found the app awkward at first, but managed to find everything I need. I remapped the custom button to turn Ambient Sound on and off, which is helpful in my home office environment. I also like the dual Bluetooth connectivity. This allows me to easily toggle between my work laptop and my phone audio. Overall, I highly recommend these headphones. They are expensive, but I feel they do their job very well.

Great noise cancelling headphones.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So I have never owned a set of noise cancelling headphone before and was very surprised at how well they work. They wirelessly connect to my phone and I can easily be in the next room without any issues. I can go a couple of weeks on a single charge (with occasional listening) and have even let them sit for a couple of weeks without use and then just used them without charging. Very comfortable as well.

Great sound and long battery life
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones have excellent sound and an adjustable EQ. The noise cancellation is the best I’ve heard. The headphones are comfortable as well, though the top of my head is sensitive so I do find myself needing to adjust where headband sits on my head periodically if I wear the headphones for several hours at a time, but probably less so than other similar headphones due to these being very light weight.

Just the best
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love it, it's been years since I've had a headphone upgrade and my biggest complaints about my previous device were that it was too heavy and the noise cancelling was uncomfortable. Both issues are virtually non-existent here. These are super super light and comfortable and the noise cancelling doesn't have that weird suction feeling some headphones have. Honestly for the price these are the best headphones money can buy.

Headphones A
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been using these for a couple months, I switched from AirPods to these so that I could go to the gym and not have my headphone fall out. I unfortunately haven’t gone to the gym yet to try them out but I can say these are a bit more technical than I thought. Maybe it’s just me, but the app is weird and I don’t think the sound quality is as good, bass is great and to be able to change the sound quality to what your listening too is cool. They are quaint and cute! I would recommend them, sony has been around for a long time and they make quality products. I recommend these. Battery life is out of this world, I use them off and on for a week each day and everytime I come back it has battery and the Bluetooth is okay, it won’t connect right away which I dislike anddd I can’t use Siri

A no for gamers, but overall good.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There’s an issue with these headphones that I can’t let slide, the Bluetooth 2-way audio sucks. If you like talking to your friends while gaming, the game will sound terrible. 99c earphones sound better than that. This is the same issue my $25 headset has, I did not expect this same one to arise in $300+ headphones. I’ve heard Bluetooth audio can be pretty bad in general, but I was hoping for it to be better. I wish I was aware of this issue before purchasing. Besides that, these are comfortable for people who have glasses, noise canceling is good, and the sound is great, battery lasts long.

Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really love these headphones after eight months of use. Easy to pair, great sound, supremely comfortable even with my glasses (this frames though). If something happened to mine I'd buy another pair, no questions. I use them with a variety of devices (iPhone, MacBook, Sony X900H TV, Switch) and appreciate that they include the option to run a wired cable. Battery life is strong, too.

Amazing Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have used these for a bit now and they're absolutely fantastic. The Audio quality is fantastic. You'll be surprised at how amazing music sounds and you just want to listen to every song you know so you can see how it sounds now. It is super comfortable, has a good battery life, and comes with a great case. My only complaint would be the build quality as it feels a bit cheap

Best and Worst All in One Pair of Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I don't usually write reviews, but the experience I've had with these warrant writing a review. Buyer beware. Pros: (when they work): Unmatched noise cancellation Decent call quality Most comfortable pair of headphones I've worn. I often use them 10 - 12 hours a day in the office. Great app and features Really good sounding with music, with customizations through the EQ. If you have a device that supports LDAC, higher quality wireless audio Great battery life Cons: Quality, Quality, Quality! It took three pairs of headphones initially before I got one that worked correctly (the first two pairs failed within the 30 day return window). My 3rd pair has recently developed a nasty bug that requires a warranty replacement. That's 4 pairs of headphones *in one year* I work in an open office plan, and these are my go-to headphones for comfort, noise cancellation and making calls. If they weren't soooo good when they work, I would have abandoned these long ago. Prior to owning these, I used the Sony WH-1000xm3 headphones for almost two years. That entire time I didn't have any issues, and they were still in great shape after 2 years. I wish Sony could figure out the quality issue on these. When they work, they are the greatest wireless headphones I've every used. However, when they glitch they aren't using even if they were provided at no cost. It's the Best and Worst experience all in a single pair of headphones.

Great Headphones only one downside for me
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Connects to both my laptop and phone at the same time. The noise cancelling is fantastic. Music quality is great. The comfortability is great too. I can wear this for a good 4 hours or so and not be uncomfortable. Like most headphones they do get warm so you do have to take them off get a breather. The battery life is fantastic. The only downside I have is when connected by wire, the headphones do have their bluetooth connection turned off. So if you are connected to a xbox controller you can't connect to your phone over bluetooth. But other then that they are great.

Amazing Product
||Posted .

They feel incredibly comfortable on my head, even after using them for long periods of time. They charge surprisingly fast and last a very long time. The noise cancelation is really good and the sound quality is amazing as well. The included usb-c cable is a bit on the short side but having usb-c in itself is a great addition.

Perfect headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best ANC headphones hands down! I reviewed and researched numerous websites, reviews. And actual in-store listening as my daughter is a researcher and needed headphones that would allow her quiet and serenity in the lab, writing reports, analyzing data, or studying in her favorite coffee shop and she gave 6 out of 5 stars! Also, crystal clear call clarity and awesome music performance from Taylor Swift to hip-hop. She loves them and is seriously considering the WF1000MX6 earbuds for her workouts and running. Highly recommended!
