Great sound and quality.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wife and I share office space so I needed some quality NC headphones. I was looking at another brand until the associate told me to listen to these before I made my decision. So glad I listened to his advice. Have to add that I have Cauliflower ear and most cheap over the ear brands kill my ears after a few minutes. Not the case with these, I sometimes forget that I have them on.

Best sounding headphones, with one annoying issue
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Let me start off by saying I loved the Sony XM4's. They were very comfortable, easy to use, and sounded great. They could pair with 2 devices at once, so I could use them with my Iphone and Macbook together. I ultimately returned these though due to an annoying hissing sound in the right ear cup. I had tried many things to correct it, but after looking it up online, I saw many people with the same issue. The problem is with the way the noise cancelling corrects for quiet environments. If I deactivate the noise cancelling, the hissing goes away. However, I bought these to be ultra quiet. Hopefully Sony with correct this issue so I can buy an updated version.

A great headphone
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones. I’m sad Best Buy no longer sells it directly but they are affordable and sound great. Mine broke at the hinge. I now have the xm6s which are amazing but I wish they had bass like the xm4s and maybe the same comfort.
I would recommend this to a friendSuperb, Premium Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best headphones I've ever owned!!!!! I use them in the bus and train regularly, and I hear very little background noise. The feature set is unparalleled! These headphones hold a charge for 2 weeks when used only a few hours daily. The voice text notifications, voice battery power indicator, and built-in Google Assistant are super useful features I'd never had on headphones before. If you can afford these, buy them.

Great sound quality

Best Headphone Ever
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these headphones. They’re nice to use around the house when I’m cleaning, when I’m working and needing to concentrate, or if I simply want to lounge and listen to music. They’re comfortable. The sound is awesome. I like how you’re able to use the google assistant. I contemplated going for the beats because of their price, and I am happy I didn’t make that mistake. These are more expensive, but they are well worth the money spent

Quality Sony product
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We’ve purchased a lot of headphones over the years and can say that these are really great. Main use of them right now is for gaming and they are super clear with excellent clarity. Noise canceling capability is top notch. Very comfy fit; not too loose or too snug, fit just right. I can see these last for years to come — great quality. You are definitely getting what you paid for.

Amazing Product
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are great. The noise cancelling is great though does hurt my head after a while because it applies pressure. The fitment is quite good. But I give it 4 stars because recently I have had a problem, the headphones will randomly disconnect from my phone. It doesn’t happen often but if it didn’t happen at all, I would give this product 5 stars.

Best bluetooth headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really comfortable. I can even sleep on my side with them. it charges with USB C, which is awesome because of the many usb c devices I have. The touch gestures, auto pause when taken off and noise cancellling on these are just some of the features that make it so great. The only negative thing is that it doesn't feel or look all that premium. I guess the lightness of the headphones had to come at a cost from somewhere.

Great friend for your ears
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ideal device if one is looking to escape from the noisy world. The sound quality is almost perfect. However you might have to switch the audio output during a call (on rare occasions, people have complained about not being able to hear me properly). With that being said, the design is really great, the earpads are soft and I’ve spent 5-6 hours straight with no urgency to take it out because of ear pain. It works with Siri but sometimes you will have to be close to the phone so it activates. It’s a device with a lot of potential and I even wonder whether the performance is better when paired with a Sony Smartphone or if it’s the same with all smartphones.

Great Quality Headphone
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Before purchase this headphone, I did a lot of research on it. I tried several other competitive brands (Bose, Beats, etc). This headphone has better quality even though it's pricey. It blocks off all the surrounding sounds. The ear pieces are very comfortable. It doesn't squeeze your head or ears. I would recommend it to anyone. You won't be disappointed. It's worth the purchase.
