1.5y in, battery life <1hr
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was good for maybe a year. Then the battery started draining obscenely fast, not even lasting an hour. Apparently might have to do with their latest 1.4.2 firmware, which has been updated to 1.5.0 outside of the US. It's been months and still no fix. Probably good if you can be sure not to get a unit from an older batch.

Posted .Hi Spanish007, We're sorry to hear that you're having issue with the WF-1000XM4 Wireless Noise-Canceling Headphones. With the Sony Headphones Connect app, Ambient Sound Control lets you adjust the volume of background sound and gives you the option to allow voices alone to be heard. Meanwhile, the Equalizer lets you customize sound levels to suit your music. The headset can be paired with multiple devices, but can only play music from 1 paired device at a time. To improve the performance of the F-1000XM4 Wireless Noise-Canceling Headphones, please update the headset software to the latest version using the Sony | Headphones Connect app. For more details, visit the product page of the headset on the Sony Support website. I hope this helps! Jay

Posted .Hi ShelleyShabazz, thank you for choosing and purchasing our industry-leading noise canceling earbuds. We're sorry to hear that you have an issue wearing your SONY unit. Please change the earbud tips to ones that fit more snugly in your ears. 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. Check if the headset is properly worn on your ears. Wear the headset so that the earbud tip is comfortably situated as deep in the ear canal as possible. Please follow this link for more details:
