Nice product but needs improvement on Earplugs.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great Sound and effective noise cancelling option. Only down side is for the in ear plugs. It comes with a foam type ear plugs which after 5 months of use it started to crumble. I had to replace with off-market silicon plugs.

Great headphones.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wonderful headphones that do a great job of silencing the outside world. Theae are a true gift from the heavens for introverts like me. With one tap of my finger, i can listen for important things just as airport departures, police sirens, and the occasional time you need to listen to someone talk, and with another tap, the world is silenced. Even while using a leafblower, these did a grwat job of canceling out the majority of the noise surrounding the job.

Aftermarket earbud tips please!!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise canceling and sound are great once Im able to get them in my ears right. No matter what tips I use they dont fit right. I have to use the large tips and really force them into my ears and then the whole time Im using the buds I am constantly readjusting them to make them fit right for the best noise canceling and sound. I am so disappointed and dissatisfied with the fit. For the price i paid for these there should be a tip that works perfectly with ease for my ears. Ive tried all three tip sizes and none of them fit correctly.

Posted .Hi Mike, While we are glad to hear that you are happy with the sound quality and noise canceling feature of the Headphones, we are sorry to hear that the WF-1000XM4 did not meet all of your expectations with the earbud tips. When changing the earbud tips, try the earbud tip sizes in order from the larger ones to the smaller ones. The size of the left and right earbud tips may be different. The “Sony | Headphones Connect” app will also help you to determine which earbud tips are most suitable for you to achieve the optimal noise cancellation effect.

great but don't fit
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound is great but none of the different size ear tips will make them stay in my ear. Every time I move they fall out. Best for men or someone with larger ears.

Posted .Hi Vacu, while we're glad that you like the sound quality, we regret that they won't stay in your ears. This is definitely not the experience we'd like you to have. Allow us to help and turn this into a better experience.
Ear canals vary in size from person to person, and can also vary in size from the left to the right sides. To keep the headphones from falling out, after selecting the right size earbud tips, we also recommend wearing the earbuds properly.
Gently pull up on the top of your ears, put the earbud tips in your ear canal, and then twist the earbuds into place. This makes sure the earbuds are firmly in the ear canal.
We hope you'll find this helpful. Should you need further assistance, please drop us an email at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details:

Best Earbuds I’ve Had
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These earbuds make Airpods Pro look like a joke. The noise cancelling is great, the fit is excellent due to the foam ear tips, and the audio quality is just crazy. You can customize the audio through the Sony Headphones app. I can now hear things in the background I’ve never heard before with other headphones/earbuds. Also, the case is similar in size to the Airpods Pro, uses USB-C, and can wirelessly charge. You definitely get what you’re paying for with these.

Noise Cancellation Kings
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are amazing, they are such a unique experience I have never tried anything like them before. The sound quality is fantastic with very punchy bass, crystal clear vocals, and good 3d experience. What makes these headphones stand out from the rest is the Noise Cancellation. I go to a gym that is very noisy and when I turn ANC I literally cannot hear a single thing in the gym, its scary how good these are at blocking out noise

Get these, the best.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you are considering some earbuds but are confused, then just buy these ones. Nothing compares, I had some Samsung Buds Pro, those gave me a literal earache until I lost one riding a bike. I have the wh-1000xm3 over the ear phones and these wf-1000xm4 come close. Best of all I can rest on my side. These are too expensive to take riding, I lost the buds pro without thinking, but for everyday, working, walking around, these are perfect. Walk in silence.

Connectivity is horrible
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’d give them 1 star if the noise cancelling and audio weren’t top of the line. However, while the headphones are in the case they randomly connect to my phone while I’m listening to anything on speaker. They also do the same thing on calls. If they’re connected to my phone as I’m listening to music and I turn on my laptop they disconnect from my phone and connect to my laptop. These are amazing headphones in regards to audio quality, battery, and noise cancelling. But none of that matters if the connectivity is horrible

WF-1000XM4
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Way better than the XM3, and the sound quality is amazing. The app with the equalizer makes all other earbuds inferior. My only complaint is there is no ability to connect to 2 devices at once. Hopefully that will be fixed with a software update.
