Sony headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound quality is amazing— it helps me lock in when working out or studying and I love how portable it is as well! My fav thing is that it’s batter life lasts so long I don’t have to charge it all the time

Bought my Son a pair for MY birthday...
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Happy owner of the WH-1000XM3 (and the WF-1000XM3 Earbuds). Best wireless headphones I have ever owned. I am sensitive to the "pressure" effect that some noise cancelling headphones can create - not a problem with the XMx's - and the sound is great! My Son hijacked my XM3s, so for MY birthday I bought HIM the XM4s, so I could have mine back - opting to keep the XM3s for myself due to the slightly longer reported battery life (I frequently travel internationally, and nothing sucks more than your headphones running out of charge mid flight!). My Son indicated equivalence of the XM3 & XM4 in most every way, with the XM4 seeing improvements in spatial imaging and bandwidth separation. He is also a fan of the sensors inside the ear cups that detect if you are wearing them or not, to extend battery life. Though I never experience any issues with the Bluetooth 4 in the XM3s, the XM4s are Bluetooth 5. Newer = better, right? (Side note - I had an issue with my WF-1000XM3 earbuds. Called Sony and they had me ship them back to them. 3 days later I had a brand new pair. Great Customer Support!)

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My favorite headphones to date. Super comfortable and the sound quality is excellent. The noise canceling feature is next level and the fact that I can be connected to two devices at the same time and not have to manually switch back and forth between devices is pretty cool. Highly recommended.

Excellent Headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent noise reduction and sound quality. Very comfortable on our flight from California to Hawaii and back. Barely dented the power reserve according to the excellent app. designed for use with these headphones. A bit tricky getting them back in the case, but that's about it for the criticism.

Excellent
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones. At the time of purchase I could have bought the XM5's but still chose the MX4. The MX5's felt better on my head but I think I was hearing better bass in the MX4's and I'm more into the bass side. I just liked the sound from the 4's better than the 5's and I have the 100 Daily Listener Badge too that the app tracks.
