Best Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.By far the best sounding headphones i’ve heard. Used them on a trip to Hawaii need less to say lots of time on an airplane. Easy noise cancellation that made it perfect to either watch movies or take a nap. Quality is better than the aipod over the ears and pro’s.

The folding Sony to buy
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The xm3s refined and that what I wanted. Fits tighter and doesn't squeak when I put it on. Auto off when you take them off is great. Still fold for small compact package unlike the 5s. I think the battery is slightly less than the 3s but it does more.

Pricey, but so worth it
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Listen, if you are considering purchasing anything in this range, just do it. Blows away Beats.. I had the XM3's but returned them after trying the XM4. Better fit, microphones, and ability to connect to (2) bluetooth devices simultaneously. I use them for my iphone & Mac simultaneously, meaning i can easily switch back & forth. HTH

Great Headphones!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are awesome! I'm a huge audiophile and these are well worth the money. Great options, you can adjust eq in the app and it actually applies to any audio played. Noise cancelling is great too and adjusting that level is really nice to have. It's like surround sound in my ears!

Great sound but cheap feel
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Of course the sound quality and noise cancellation on these headphones are top notch. You would expect nothing less from Sony. The only real issue I have with these is the build quality, the plastic housing gives them a real cheap feel. However, thus far they have shown no degradation or apparent wear and tear.

Go To Headphones for Noise Canceling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing noise canceling. I was on an airplane with a crying baby behind me and could barely hear it. Great quality audio and I love the auto-adjust feature on the noise canceling too. Only downside is they get a little heavy if wearing for a long time.

Best ANC Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Tried the XM3s and loved them but ended up returning them because they couldn't connect to my laptop and my phone at the same time. The XM4s fixed that. Comfortable, best audio, easy to use. Slightly disappointed with the microsoft teams and zoom quality as it doesn't use the stereo codec but that could also be my fault.

Great wireless headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far so good. Great audio quality using my LG V35 as the source with LDAP Bluetooth. Noise canceling seemed OK but the real test will be when I fly with them next month. Haven't tried ising the wired connection yet. Only complaint that I am sure I can fix by tweaking the software is that the headphones are too sensitive and pause playing whenever you make a sound, even clearing your throat. I realize this is a feature to pause playing when you start a conversation but it is just too sensitive.

Sony WH-1000XM4 NC headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are great. I tried my son's set and decided I would like to have a pair. The BT pairs well with my Laptop, TV, or Cell phone and the app on my phone controls which (up to two devices). Updates have gone smooth and the charge on the battery lasts a long time.
