Sony XM4s
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After almost a year of ownership and constant use 10+ hours a day for school, work and so on: I want to say that the battery life is insane, lasting all day and sometimes 3 days of heavy use. Charges fast but could be faster. Noise cancelling is way too good.

Top rated in my book
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are light weight and mostly plastic, however the quality seems good. The sound is truly exceptional. These are wireless and connects to devices via blue tooth. They use a downloaded app that allows you to adjust settings including EQ to your liking. These are the best headphones I've owned. I don't advise wearing at the gym since they'll make you feel warm quickly. I'd buy again in a flash.

An Unplanned Upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got these because my old Sony headphones broke. It was an accident. They were in excellent condition and worked fine. It's just not as comfortable anymore, and I really don't want to tape it up. I will give it away to anyone who could use it. Anyway, the new headphones work fine, and it's taking a little getting used to with the lack of controls and the swiping nonsense. I prefer the controls on the headphones. I will get used to it, I suppose. It's a personal thing; I have nothing against the sound quality or the improved noise cancellation. That is a plus, as it is way better! Minus one star because I do not like the swiping.

Great ANC Headphones
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just purchased these to go along with my AirPods Pro as I wanted an over the ear headphone. So far the sound quality and comfort have been exactly as expected. Still waiting to see how I feel about battery life because it’s not holding a charge as long as I thought it would. I have used a total of probably 5-6 hours and went from 100% to 30% in that time. I couldn’t justify the price of the AirPods Max and so far I have not been disappointed with my purchase.

XM4 > any other headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are way better than AirPods Pro, Beats Studio and AirPods Max are too overrated and overpriced. Offers better sound quality and headphone itself from all of those including XM5, not really worth upgrading to the new ones plus you save $50. Not much of a difference XM5 from XM4, also XM5 feel cheaper quality. Just buy these.

Sony XM4
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality is great. The fit leaves a little to be desired. This is the first headphones I’ve had where it feels like either my head is to small or my ears are set to high up. On all my old headphones the ear-cups needed to be adjusted down. On this set the ear pieces are all the way up and the band over the top of my head really doesn’t touch anything. Again though they sound good and have a decent play time whether using noise canceling or not. The only way I would recommend is to physically sit and wear them for an extended time. These are over the ear headphones and I initially thought they felt good. It was a little later I figured out they really didn’t git as well as I originally thought.

Absolutley amazing sound
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted these headphones for a while because my work changed to work from home, my cheap headphones finally broke so I ordered these finally when they were on sale. I wish I would have bought them a year ago, they sound absolutely amazing, I was worried because I listen to a lot of metal and usually the bas isnt there in cheaper headphones, but these sound amazing. I highly recommend them.

9/10 if you ask me
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are probably the best headphones i’ve bought. Personally, I love how you can customize the sound and the bass when listening to music. It’s like like I can hear each instrument while also being able to hear the song. Only thing I don’t like is that I can’t connect them to my PS5 via bluetooth, using the cord can be annoying at times.
