Deeper bass than AirPods Pro
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.AirPods Pro are my daily drivers but these take the experience to a whole other level. The bass is noticeably louder, and the 360 degree audio is cool. I also like how it can switch between two Bluetooth connections and you almost forget you’re wearing them.

Bought for gym use. Good quality.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought for gym use. Great for blocking out noise during cardio, however will slip off head if doing weight training laying down.
I would recommend this to a friendBrand response from SonyListens
Posted .Hi BG312,
We are glad to hear the WH-1000XM4 is performing well for your cardio sessions. To improve the fit during weight training, we recommend adjusting the headband so it sits slightly further forward on your head to create a more secure anchor point when leaning back. Please keep in mind that these headphones are not officially IP-rated for water or sweat resistance, so we suggest wiping the ear pads down after your workout to maintain the material and internal sensors.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are my first pair of Sony headphones. Very good to listen casually. I do workout in these from time to time and they are still holding up. Just gotta make sure to wipe it down since it can get very sweaty and wet. I guess if you want it to last longer then i recommend not working out in them. The cups themselves are very very soft and comfortable. I know that when getting helix piercings you shouldnt wear over-the-ears headphone, but i still wore these a week after I got my helix, I cant go without music in public and i hate playing music thru my phone speakers. It didnt irritate my piercings for at least 2-3 hours, which im surprised because my hyperx headphones hurts but these dont.

Posted .Hi TaiYee, Fantastic! We're thrilled to hear that you find these headphones comfortable and suitable for casual listening, even with helix piercings.

We appreciate your feedback and are glad you are enjoying your music experience. Thank you so much for sharing your detailed review of the WH-1000XM4 and for choosing Sony! - Romeo

Amazing headphones for remote working
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only noise cancelling headset I have that does not hurt my ear when wearing for a long time. All my other headset started to hurt my ear due to my glasses. The sound quality is as good as it gets, and mostly due to the limits on the bluetooth bandwidth. I haven't got a chance to try the lossless streaming, but I doubt the current streaming protocol would suggest the bit rate for a true lossless CD.

Sleek, robust and awesome where it matters
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had this headphone for a while now. It is simply the best for noise canceling and has a sleeker look than even XM5 for me. It is robust and charges very fast and lasts a long time. The multi-device connection is not the best though and sometimes the touch gestures are interpreted in the wrong way. But overall greate product.

Great on the airplane
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these for long distance flights and they did not disappoint. Great noise cancellation to block out engine hum and surrounding people. Was helpful for reducing the sound of a crying baby. Also produced good sound quality for airline movies. I still like to use the cable to be able to connect without WiFi and it worked great!

Pretty nice and cute headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphones are good for noise canceling. They have 4 different options to choose from if you don't want to use noise canceling. Sometimes they randomly disconnect when I am using it but happens very rarely. The battery life is pretty long and it charges pretty quickly (about an hour for a full battery). It used to turn off by itself when left on and unused but now it doesn't do that so just remember to always turn them off when it's not being used.

Posted .Hi DevoraJ, We're glad that you like the noise canceling function and battery life. We're sorry if they randomly disconnect. Please ensure to have the software updated for optimum performance. We also recommend to reset the headset. This operation does not delete pairing information. If the headset does not operate properly even if you reset the headset, initialize the headset.

Sony WH-1000XM4
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently purchased the Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones, and they have exceeded all my expectations. Overall sound quality is awesome, they drown out noise really well and I love that there’s an app where you can I have seen these go on sale from time to time, but I couldn’t wait, They last extremely long without me having to charge frequently which is a big plus.

The best in its class
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am glad I purchased this. I was also considering Bose, but these Sony headphones won me over. The battery life is the best out of all the other headphones in its class. I can go 2 days before I need to charge the headphones. For example, I used this headphones for a full day (8 am to 12 midnight) and I still had 70% of battery life left. Also, my next door neighbor was mowing the lawn one day and all I heard was a slight hum of the mower with the noise cancellation on and no music playing & with music playing I did not hear the mower at all.
