Features are fantastic and I love the noise canceling feature. I didn’t pay the full price since I got them on sale. Felt regular price was a bit high, I recommend to wait for sale price

Sony has an awesome winner here!!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely ones of the best pair of Active Noise Canceling headphones I ever have had the -pleasure of using. USB-C charging so I can use the same charger as my other more modern devices. Built in Microphone with Filtering for great call clarity. Awesome battery life, even with the ANC active.

Posted .Hi RebeccaM,
It is truly wonderful to know that you are finding the WH1000XM4 so comfortable and that the sound quality has made such a positive impression! We are thrilled that you are enjoying the industry-leading noise cancellation, which is powered by our Dual Noise Sensor technology to capture ambient noise and cancel it out. It is also great to know you appreciate the Speak-to-Chat feature, which automatically pauses your music when you start a conversation, making these a truly "overall great" pair of headphones.
Thank you for choosing Sony!

Good but not great; I'd pick the Bose NR 700s
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good but not great, as while these have an incredible battery life and good sound, they overheat the ears and don't feel comfortable for long periods. At least in my experience, the Bose 700s were the better choice when compared to these and even the AirPods Max. These improve the XM3 that came before them, but still have lesser call quality issues when using on Zoom/WebEx and the sound is a bit too boomy when compared to more accurate headphones that are priced similarly.

Posted .Hi esion, thank you so much for the 4-stars review. While we are glad you like the great sound quality and long-lasting battery life of these headphones, we are sorry if you feel uncomfortable wearing these headphones. The WH1000XM4 has a self-adjusting headband and soft cushioned earcups that cover the whole ear. You may try adjusting the headband slider so that they cover your ears. This will help give you more personalized comfort. Having unusually dry skin can store static electricity in humans. A large amount of static electricity in the body and having contact with electrical devices at the same time can cause stress on the device and/or on your body. You can avoid this from happening by wearing clothing of natural materials that can't store static electricity. For the call quality, these can be improved by updating its firmware to the latest version (2.0.7). The software includes key features, applications, bug fixes, and feature improvements. For more details, please visit https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/wireless-headphones-bluetooth-headphones/wh-1000xm4/downloads/00017022.

Better than expected
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Glad I purchased these headphones. First thing I noticed about them is that they are lighter than I expected but still good quality material and the sound quality is great especially with the different EQ settings. The noise cancellation and the acuracy with the touchpad features ambient sound control is impressive. The pressure on the earpads is not too bad and the earcups have a soft memorylike foam which is comfortable and doesn't seem to make my ears too hot after a while of wearing them. The optimizer does seem to help make the earcups feel a little more natural when wearing them. I got this as a gift for my other half and wanted to test it before giving it to him for Christmas. I'm honestly thinking of investing in a pair for myself. It also really helps with studying and writing reports when there is a lot of noise in the house. The 2 way pairing also seems to be useful when I'm on the phone and using my laptop at the same time and decreases the hassle of having to switch back and fourth as I have experienced with earbuds. The charging cable that came with it is a bit too short but can always use a longer cable so it's not a problem. It takes a bit to get used to the touchpad swiping motions but It didn't take me too long to find certain ways to swipe without much hassle. It also seems to have a good grip on my head as my head is pretty small but I'm glad i can move around and not feel like it's going to fall off. The mic quality seems to be good. However, if the headphones are in a certain angle such as if you were to lay down while on a call, it seems muffled but headphones aren't really meant to be used when laying down so it's not too much of an issue. Otherwise, I think these headphones were worth purchasing so far. I also love how it comes with a hardshell case to carry the foldable headphones and the different cables that come with it which is an extra plus.

Excellent sound all around
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are absolutely stunning in just about every aspect. The case is of very high quality and has a convenient mesh pocket on the outside. The headphones fold very nicely into the case. One small gripe is the two small cords (3.5mm and charger that's very very short) that come in the case tend to want to go out of their little section once you take them out. But they do fit in well. The build quality of the headphones is fantastic and they look beautiful. I'm very impressed with all it's features. The app that comes with it is easy to use and allows further customization. The noise cancelling is the best I've ever experienced and can be turned all the way up or down with the app. The sound quality is the best part of these and is truly very good. They perform well with any type of sound and I use these as opposed to my pixelbuds when I want a much more immersive sound experience. I highly recommend these noise cancelling Bluetooth headphones.
