      Hi Amari,

      While we're glad that you like most of the features, we’re sorry to hear that you’re experiencing discomfort and pressure on your head while using our WH-1000XM4 headphones. Wearing the headphones correctly is essential, not just so they are comfortable but also to ensure the noise-canceling function works as intended.

      It's important to adjust the slider before wearing the headset, as improper positioning can lead to discomfort and diminish the effectiveness of the noise-canceling feature. Additionally, incorrect placement may interfere with the wearing detection function, potentially causing automatic music playback interruptions or triggering the automatic power-off feature for battery conservation. we hope these tips enhance your experience!

      It's also unfortunate that the unit had to be returned. For your reference, you may check the link below.

      https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00282845

      Thank you for your understanding, and we hope these tips enhance your experience and you will consider Sony again in a future purchase.

      Sincerely,
      Jess Sony_US
