    I've had these headphones for almost a year now, and they are pretty awesome. They don't cancel out all noise (like on an airplane can sometimes hear what's going on around me), but for the most part they work great.

      Hi bhunter, Thank you for the amazing review! We're very happy to hear you're enjoying your Sony WH1000XM4. The noise canceling function is effective in low frequency ranges such as airplanes, trains, offices, near air-conditioning, and is not as effective for higher frequencies, such as human voices. If the effect of noise canceling is not sufficient, please follow the steps on the link below:

    These headphones are very comfortable when wearing. I have worn these for long oeriods of time and they do not hurt my ears. ANC is great also on these headphones, and the battery life is awesome, i can go a week and a half without charging them. Picked these up when they were down to $230 and they were so worth it.

    Work fantastically. Knocked a star for the plastic proximity sensor inside the ear cup. My ear pushes right on it and causes discomfort after a few hours. The sensor adds the auto pausing feature. But I would trade it away for not having it rubbing on my ear.

      Hi TechBuyingFool, we're glad that you're enjoying the sound quality and controls of the headphones. Sony’s industry-leading noise cancellation evolves to further immerse you in your music. The addition of Sony’s proprietary HD Noise Canceling Processor QN1 masterfully eliminates the noise around you. Listen all day with up to 30 hours of battery life. Quick charging gives five hours of playback with just a 10-minute charge.

      To get the most out of your WH-1000XM4, download the Sony | Headphones Connect App. It includes Adaptive Sound Control—which automatically adjusts noise canceling based on your activity and an equalizer—which can be customized to fine-tune your music. Using our advanced noise canceling technology, we designed these headphones so you can block out noise and experience next-level silence. Plus, you have the ability to use the convenient smart features including Quick Attention, Google Assistant/Alexa/Siri compatibility, and touch controls.

      We hope you also enjoy these headphones on your plane trip. Thanks for choosing Sony.

      ~Ralph Sony_US
