    XM4 VERSUS XM5

    I really liked these headphones, the only reason I decided to change this for the XM5 is that that model wasn't on display in the store, so I could not compare the sound between my XM4, VS the XM5, so once I tried the XM5 for the 15-day trial I liked the sound of the XM5 better.

    Love these headphones, but hey do irritate my ear piercings. The color and sound quality are great and I would say he cancellation is better than most Beats that I have had in the past. I'm officially a part of the Sony crew.

      Hi Mady,

      Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the WH1000XM4. We're glad that you like the noise canceling function of the headphones. Your feedback about its fit and mic quality is greatly appreciated. For optimum fit and comfort, make sure that you are wearing the headphones properly and adjust the headband depending on your head shape. You may find this link helpful:

      https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm4/v1/en/contents/TP0002928786.html

      For optimum performance, it is recommended to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app). When using a video calling application on a computer, switch the Bluetooth connection to HFP or HSP with the computer. During a video call, sound quality may become low due to the conditions of the communication line. You can also check the settings of the app that you are using for mic sensitivity if available.

      Hope this helps. In case you need further assistance, please email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details:

    These are what I'd call "state of the art". The sound quality is superb, the app is good and the intuitive ability is pretty amazing. Well worth the purchase. I purchased the blue ones on the same day i purchased the black ones, for the grandson. He feels exactly like i do about this headset. Great job, Sony!

    These headphones are terrific! I waited a long time to get them, but when they finally went on sale, I pulled the trigger. Excellent noise cancellation, and great sound, too! You really hear all of the different instruments in the band...great musical clarity! I would strongly recommend getting a pair!

    I’ve been using Bose QC products literally for over 20 years. After getting the latest Bose 700 I was a little underwhelmed with its comfort level over a long flight. Swapped it out with Sony. It’s an outstanding product. The headphones fold quite nicely, which is always a bonus compared to Bose. The battery life is amazing.

    These are really good headphones. I got them for travel on a plane to drown out some of the noise. They do a good job of that. They are uncomfortable to wear with a mask as the cups press against the string and after a while, it hurts. Without the mask they are ok. I would imagine any headphones would have that issue these days. The sound is great. I do wish they had the Apple chip in them so they would integrate better with my iPhone.
