Impressive Headphones
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise cancellation is next level. I can completely tune out the world when I need to focus or just enjoy peace and quiet. It works beautifully in noisy environments like airports, coffee shops, or even at home when things get busy.

Best headphones I've ever owned
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've owned several different pairs of headphones from several different manufacturers, and these are by far my favorite. My last set was actually a pair of Sony wh- xb900n's, which I liked but wasn't blown away by. These blow them away. I like the fit of the XB's a bit more, but these aren't uncomfortable at all. The sound paired with the noise-reduction makes buying these a no-brainer.

Overall good headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality, playtime, and ability to store on two devices is nice. But switching between devices isn't as seamless as I hoped, and noise cancellation is also much worse than I had expected. However, they are a very solid pair of headphones overall, and they've kept in good condition for 3+ years and many hours of wear.

Excellent Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These Sony headphones are amazing! The headphones are designed to be both comfortable and stylish. The sound quality is impeccable. The only con I would like to point out is that sometimes the headphones will automatically connect to other devices they have been paired with and will refuse to connect to my current device without holding down the bluetooth button and pairing again.

Posted .Hi hellocorky,
Thank you for an amazing review! We're glad to hear that you like the comfortable fit, stylish design and great sound quality of the WH1000XM4. We're sorry to hear that you are having issues with Bluetooth communication on the headphones. If you touch an NFC-compatible smartphone to the headset while the headset is connected to another Bluetooth device, the connection switches to the smartphone (One-touch connection switching). However, the connection cannot be switched when talking on a headset connected to a Bluetooth-compatible mobile phone.
When an NFC-compatible smartphone is connected to the headset, if the smartphone is touched by another NFC-compatible Bluetooth headset or Bluetooth speaker, the smartphone is disconnected from the headset and connected to the Bluetooth device.
If you need assistance, feel free to contact us by send us an email with the below information to socialsupport@am.sony.com.

Awesome, but too big
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound on these as well as comfort is 10/10, so great. However, I tend to have a big head, seriously, and these are still too loose even on the tightest setting. So I cannot wear them out and about to to do much movement which hugely takes away from why I bought them.

Nice headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very nice headphones that everyone recommends. I like them, with a pretty design, and they never catch my hair, which most headsets do. The only issue is that they leak sound; other people can hear it pretty loudly from a distance.

Posted .Hi Phoebe,
It's a true pleasure to hear you find the Sony WH-1000XM4 to be an attractive and popular choice, and we especially appreciate you mentioning the comfortable design that prevents tangling. We understand your point about the audio being audible to others nearby. While the earcups are designed to contain sound, ensuring a proper, secure seal around the ear can sometimes help minimize the distance that sound travels from the headphones.
Thank you for your comprehensive review and for selecting Sony!
Regards,

Good listening
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely love the sound on these. My only issue is the slide when I work out but to be honest I have that figured out. The bass boost feature on these gives just the right amount. Sound is crisp and clean. Better than my AirPods.

Exceptional headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My girlfriend absolutely loves these. She said she honestly cannot find anything wrong with them. Great sound and noise-canceling (she uses these in a hectic work environment), clever mute feature, easy connection to her cell or PC, comfortable. These come in several nice colors, but they did not promote this in-store. The price is a little scary, but comparable to competing brands.

Top notch for sound, comfort and noise canceling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these headphones. Bought them because I was going to be flying for 10 hours and I lost one of my air pods pro. The noise cancellation is excellent. Didn’t hear the airplane engines and I was sitting by the wing. They were comfortable on my ears. Love the app you can download because it includes an equalizer you can adjust for didn’t music genres. Overall happy with my purchase.

Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing audio quality and extremely comfortable. I can wear these all day and forget that they're even on. Also love the controls and sound customization options. Definitely the best pair of consumer headphones you'll ever buy. The only complaint I have about them is that the headphones occasionally pause for no reason. Maybe, it thinks I'm talking when I'm not(it pauses automatically when you start talking) but it's slightly upsetting when that happens(which has probably been about 5 times in the month that I've had it.). Other than that, it's a solid pair of headphones.
