Wow!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent sound quality. Sleek design. Noise cancelling is exceptional. Sometimes I wish there were buttons on the back of the ear instead of touch response on the headphone itself but overall very happy with purchase.

Best headphones I’ve ever tried out!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these as a gift for my mother as she does her bible studies online. I just wanna say all the hype behind the noise-canceling on these headphones is legit. As soon as you put them on, almost everything goes completely quiet. I reminds me of those hearing test headphones that do those low tone beeps lol, its that good! Oh, and they sound really good too and have a nice build quality!

Excellent Noise Cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My only other set of noise cancelling headphones were the airpods pros and these are significantly better. It is somewhat eery how silent it is when they are turned on and on sound is playing. Good battery life and easy to switch between two devices.

Awesome! If it’s not broken don’t fix it.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought 2 pairs for my wife and I. I had the previous generation 1000xm3 and I loved them, when I heard that the 1000xm4 was coming out I sold the xm3. I they look more are less the same except a few additions like the on ear sensor that’s inside the left ear cup. The cushion on the top of the headphone is smaller. They also took away the ambient noise control button. Out of the box they sound just as good if not slightly better than the xm3. I love the new features they added like, connecting to two devices at the same time, when you talk the headphones let’s ambient noise, and when you take them off it pauses what ever you’re listening too all in all a great product! I’m more than satisfied.

Sony mark 4
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my second time purchasing this product. I initially bought a pair for myself and decided to buy a pair for my wife, because she kept stealing mine! They’re that good. Highly recommend. I also opted to buy these even with the mark 6’s available, because these headphones are reliable and get the job done in so many ways!!

Posted .Hi RamseyS,
That is a wonderful compliment to the WH-1000XM4—so good you needed a second pair! It sounds like your wife has great taste!
It’s completely understandable why you chose the XM4s again. They truly are an incredibly reliable and high-performing pair of headphones, and many people appreciate their perfect balance of excellent noise cancellation, superior sound quality, and exceptional comfort for long listening sessions.
Enjoy your two pairs of fantastic, reliable headphones!

AMAZING
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.LOVE LOVE LOVE these headphones! I've had them for a bit over a year and they work like they are brand new. At first, they can be a bit tricky to use if you don't find the right settings for you, but once you adjust the settings to your liking and fit, they're the best. I would recommend using and buying when going on walks and to study. The battery lasts so long which is such a plus! 100% charged can last a whole day and sometimes even up to more days depending on the use you give them. I recommend to give them a try!

Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones. Before I decided on these, I picked up Bose NC700, and I prefer these over the Bose. I find them more comfortable than the Bose, and they sure sound better to my ears. Highly recommended, especially if you find them at a discount.

Amazing Sound Quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am no longer able to use in ear headphones so I needed over ear. Although the price had me hesitant, these headphones are definitely worth the money. The sound quality is amazing, they fit great and it took over an hour before sweat became noticeable.
