My favorite Sony head phone.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing head phone among other high ends I owned but cost a lot less, all great features as noise canceling and Bluetooth audio/wire connections.I used it nightly for music listening,and talking with my wife whenever she’s interrupting... highly recommended without hesitation.

Good headset all around
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This wireless headset is worth it when they're on sale which isn't rare for them. the sound is great but could do better but I'm not displeased with it. noise cancelling is what really got me sold, I can study and listen to music without background noise annoying me.

Incredible Headphones! Best in the game!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are the successor of the XM3's. They provide excellent sound and incredible noise canceling. Very easy to set up. If you are looking for a great headphone with excellent noise canceling you will not be disappointed. They are a little pricy but they are well worth the price.

Newbie in Hi-Res headphone
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony has great headphones. I purchased their headphones this past February and the music in both Dolby Atmos and 360 Reality Audio are hit and miss at best. The 360 sounds good in mostly newer music but in remakes from songs before the year 2000, I cannot hear the difference between Dolby Atmos and stereo. I will still recommend individuals who want to purchase the headphones.

A great product made better
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I own the XM3s!!! The ability to pair to two devices and the approximately sensor that stops the music when you take them off is great - the build feels better than the XM3s. Over all a great refresh. Sony just refined a already great head phone, and honestly that’s what needed to be done.

Need android/IOS app for full functionality.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Quality is as you would expect - excellent. To get the most out of your headphones you must download and pair them with an android or IOS device, a PC is not enough. The android/IOS app is the only way to set defaults, tune the noise canceling, and update the firmware.

Great for Gym
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones for the gym and everyday use. I sweat a lot and still they don’t seem to slip off or anything. My only drawback is for my set they only charge when I have them charging through my laptop rather than a wall outlet.

Thank you for your purchase and for your feedback. We're glad that you enjoyed using our XM4 headphone for your gym and everyday activities.

Great for my college aged son
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My son wanted noise canceling headphones for Christmas and asked for these after doing a lot of research. He loves them! I haven’t listened to them, but he has and also has borrowed my Bose headphones. He likes the sound better through these and says the canceling works very well.
