    We bought these Sony headphones as a gift. The recipient loves everything about them . . .He had had problems with previous headphones when talking on the phone. Using the phone with headphones is never a problem now.

    The Sony WH-1000XM4 are an amazing piece of technology. I'm going to call it my favorite tech of the year so far. Sound quality is among the best I've ever heard in a pair of headphones. Bass is deep but not overwhelming, Mids and Highs come through very clear without sounding muddy or tinny. They are tuned very well and sound great with any genre of music, podcast, or ASMR you want to listen to. Battery life is excellent, I fell asleep with them on early this morning and had them on for about 5 hours listening to a relaxation / guided meditation track and the battery is still holding strong. When I woke up, my ears or head didn't hurt at all, so Its safe to say that the headset is comfortable for long listening sessions. The noise cancellation is fantastic, I sleep in a room with a window A/C unit and I could hardly even hear it through the headset. I forgot I had it on and had to look to make sure it was on before i fell asleep. I never imagined myself wanting to go to bed with headphones on, but these are great and help me tune out sounds that might wake me up and or distract me from the guided meditation I'm listening to. I highly recommend this headset to anyone who wants the best active noise cancellation for your commute, home or office. They are also quite smart. When someone comes and talks to you and it hears you speak, the headset is smart enough to pause the music / track for you and lets in ambient sounds so that you can talk to the person without removing or having to pause yourself. I was pleasantly surprised by the feature and I love it! The right ear cup has touch controls, but I always seem to have trouble using swipe gestures. It's nice to have but i hardly use them. The headset also has a sensor in the left ear cup that senses when you remove the headset from your ears and will automatically pause what you're listening to and resume it when you put them back on. I love this also, don't have to fumble with my phone or other device to take a quick pause. Sony provides a companion app for the headset on iOS and Android that will allow you to tweak different settings and update the headset firmware also. It's very easy to use and stable. I could go on and on about this headset all night, but I need to get some snooze now, But trust me when I say that you will not be disappointed with this headset, and will be very pleased with the build quality, sound quality and all the smart features packed into it.

    In some way, noise cancelling is better than my WH-1000XM2, but dropping the AptX codec was a bummer. Got it because of the BB exclusive color. The Sony WH-1000XM line is one of the best Bluetooth headphones lines in the market. Use it mostly with my NW-A45 Walkman that supports HiRes and LDAC codec.

    if I’m being honest, I heard these were the best headphones out there. Maybe I just got a bad set, but when they switched to noise canceling, you hear a bunch of swishing sounds.

      Hi KAMI,

      We're very sorry to hear you're experiencing swishing sounds with the noise canceling on your WH-1000XM4 headphones. That is certainly not the experience we want for you, and we understand your frustration.

      The first step to resolve this is to use the NC Optimizer function in the Sony Headphones Connect app, which calibrates the noise canceling for your specific fit and environment. Also, please check that the Adaptive Sound Control is turned off in the app, as this can sometimes cause intermittent sounds.

      If the issue continues, it may be a hardware-related concern, and our support team can help you with a more in-depth diagnosis. You can contact them through this link: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US

      Thanks for choosing Sony.
