Over Ear performance, In Ear package
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have steered clear of earbuds until now due to the fact that they simply haven't been able to match over ear headphone performance for active noise cancelation or sound. Problem solved. These Sony WF-1000XM4s have everything except a sexy product name. In addition to meeting my sonic needs, the buds as well as the case have proven robust by surviving a 4' drop onto a concrete parking deck. One bud even stayed in the case! The equalizer options really make a difference. I dialed back the base and the mids just a bit to get perfect sound. YMMV. A bit pricy, but you get what you pay for.

Sony airbuds review
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have used a few airbuds, most recently I upgraded from the Samsung buds pro which was excellent, to the buds 2, which was very disappointing, sound quality was good but kept falling out my ears... so I decided to try these Sony airbuds, and I have to say, I was truly impressed, with how they looked I thought they would have fallen out my ear within minutes, that never happened, I use these at the gym everyday, I also run in them, the sound quality is excellent, plus multiple sound quality options... one of best decisions I ever made.

Phone Call Problems
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am disappointed that people very often complain about the sound quality on their end when I use these buds for telephone conversations. I end up taking them out and having to go hand-held. Big negative for a big price tag.

Outstanding sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound! I do not recommend using the Noise Canceling function when your wife is trying to tell you how her day went unless you’ve upgraded your doghouse. I did the latter, so I’m good and I didn’t hear a word of anything from her day in the office. These are an absolute must to have for removing daily unwanted noise where you can enjoy music, podcasts while enjoying a nice cigar on the patio. Highly recommended!

Earbuds
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony has a winner in the their new model. The major detractor of these earbuds is that you can’t keep them in your ears. I am waiting on the receipt of comply foam ear tips to decide to return or not. The earbud doesn’t fit correctly in my ear and I am constantly pushing them back in.

Posted .Hi Doresfan, thank you for your feedback. While we are glad that you like these headphones, we regret that you can’t keep them in your ears. Sony commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority.
Different sizes of earbud tips are supplied so that you can achieve the maximum effects of the earbuds. 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, please select the right size earbud tips and 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.

right earbud doesn't last more than 20 minutes
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The biggest issue I originally had was the comfort period however I was able to buy some custom ear tips that weren't the phone ones but still provide a good noise isolation. This made them world better to wear without any ear fatigue. However about 2 months ago the right ear but just started dying within about 20 minutes. If you read online forms you'll find this is a common issue with these earbuds. I've done all the reset / restarts etc and nothing works. If you do make the choice to purchase these get the warranty it's not worth the hassle to have to deal with Sony

On Another level!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.On another level! My biggest concern from the last model was staying in my ear during activities like exercising etc. Not anymore, these stay put, sound quality are excellent as always, ANC are even better from the M3s which I didn't think was possible. The case has drastically been miniaturized and has wireless charging on the bottom. Been using them since I got them and have been very satisfied. You get what you pay for and these are no exception. Thanks Sony.

Decent product but poor fitting
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Decent product but very uncomfortable if you have small ears. I tried the smallest ear tip and was still uncomfortable. The earbuds itself are just too big and will constantly cause ear fatigue. I thought it would get better overtime as my ears adjusted to it. But I was totally wrong. You’d be lucky to have these on for more than 1 hour without any ear pain or discomfort. However, it does have a very good seal and active noise cancellation. Probably the best on the market with regards to active noise cancellation.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from SonyListens
Posted .Hi Manny, while we are glad that you the noise canceling function, we regret that the earbuds are too big and you're unable to find the best fit despite trying the smallest eartips sizes. You may be experiencing a symptom called listener fatigue. That is where your eardrums work hard to manage the volume that flows through your ear canal. The louder the volume, the bigger the strain on your eardrums, which then causes the feeling of fatigue. Try lowering the volume or take a break from wearing them for a while.
Additionally, for a comfortable listening experience we also recommend wearing them correctly and simply twist the headset unit to fit it snugly into the ear canal, and adjust the positioning of the headset unit until it fits comfortably.
