High Quality ear buds
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are high-quality ear pods. The battery life is sufficient and I do not have as many connectivity issues compared to less quality pods I have purchased. Definitely worth the price. A few times the pods would just disconnect to my Bluetooth in areas I am not using wifi, but this has been rare.

Really great ear-buds.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these! Also loved the WF-1000XM3 buds. Best noise cancellation I’ve ever heard. Head and shoulders better then AirPods! The M3s fit better for me… your results may vary. I wear them while mowing the lawn, blowing snow. Both jobs take about 2.5 hours. My ears don’t ring when done, and I experience no ‘ear fatigue’

Lives up to hype!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased these after reading the specifications on them. I have the MF-1000XM3's. They are great and comfortable for me. I must admit these fit better a little lighter. Sound quality is good. It depends on how it was mastered. I have found music from the late 60's and 70s. Are not as full range as newer sources. I would recommend them to friends.

Posted .Hi Dell, we regret to hear that these doesn't fit well. 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. 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:

Sound great but full of compromises
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really want to give these 0 stars. It doesn’t matter if they are the best sounding earbuds on the market or that they have the best noise cancelling for an earbud if the things don’t work. No multipoint pairing - If you pair this to your laptop, you will need to repair them to your phone. I had them for less than 3 hours and the right ear bud produced this horrible buzzing noise until it reset. The Sony app isn’t great. I don’t want to have to run another app for a pair of Bluetooth earbuds

Posted .Hi Morsebs138, Thank you for the feedback on your experience with your WF1000XM4. We're glad you like the exceptional sound quality and industry-leading noise cancelation of these headphones.
We appreciate your feedback about the multipoint connection feature and Headphones Connect app. Currently, the WF-1000XM4 does not support the Multi-point Connection feature. It can be paired with multiple devices (e.g. smartphones, tablets, laptops, etc.), but unlike model WH-1000XM4: it cannot be connected with multiple devices at the same time.
And we would like to know more about your concern about the buzzing noise so we can better assist you. Please email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details:

No More Bose for Me
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been a loyal Bose fan all my life. But my previous Bose headphones both took a turn for the worse. The battery life went practically non-existent. So this time around after much research, I went with Sony. The sound is unbelievable & the overall quality is superb. I absolutely love the case, too!
