I love it!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones! They have the best noise canceling in the industry, they're light, comfortable, have a long battery life, and sound great! My only complaint it the color is different than the picture, they're more gray than the picture or name implies.

These are the Cost-Effective Earphones for You.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Such a great product: for music lovers, total immersion with resonating music tones that are enriched by noise cancelling technology. Calming. Peaceful. (or for others not into smooth jazz, classical, and artists - rock out).

Same great headphone as its predecessor
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There really is nothing else to say about this headphone. It sounds just as great as the XM3s and the NC, IMO, seems better. The option to pair with two devices at the same time is useful though I would prefer if we could do more devices (I regularly switch between multiple devices and pairing again and again is a bit annoying when I exceed the limit). Unfortunately, that is really all that is new in this headphone, IMO. The speak-to-chat feature is annoying and I ended up turning it off. Battery life is the same. There is an addition of a sensor to the left cup to pause media when the cans are taken off. I find it hard to award this headphone 5 or 4 stars since there is hardly anything new except the option to pair with two devices simultaneously and the minor ANC improvements.

Worth the Money
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Performs as the specs say. Comfortable for long periods. Excellent noise canceling. I used to fly a lot and this was the best for noise canceling and functionality. Light and comfortable to wear around neck when running to next gate.

Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.10/10 the best in noise cancellation and has very good bass when you use there bass boosted option not the MOST bass compared to other headphones but it balances everything nicely The only CON I have is the software you need to use to pair any other bluetooth device

Review of Sony Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The bass in these headphones are amazing! However, it is confusing at times to remember which way to swipe across the headphones to turn up the volume or switch songs. I’ve also noticed that the headphones will change from noise cancellation to ambient without me doing it and I don’t know if that’s a simple fix or if it’s something else.

Posted .Hi JheneS,
We are thrilled to hear you're loving the amazing bass on your WH-1000XM4 headphones. Regarding the controls, for volume, swipe up repeatedly for louder and down repeatedly for quieter; for tracks, swipe forward for the next song and backward for the previous song. The automatic mode change is likely due to the Adaptive Sound Control or Speak-to-Chat features in the Sony | Headphones Connect app. Please open the app and disable both of those features to keep it locked on Noise Cancellation. If the issue continues after checking those settings, please reach out to our support team for further assistance. Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab
Too good to be true!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is by far the best pair of wireless headphones I've purchased in this lifetime.

Great Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Headphones are great! They have awesome noise cancelation and are very comfortable. Just like any over-ear headphone, they can get hot and sweaty if wearing them outside in the sun, but perfect for inside home or office use. App also lets you fine-tune to your own sound profile

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Probably my first head of headphones since I was young and they are great! Fits comfortably on my head, sound quality is great, and the battery life is totally worth it. I think the noise suppression could be better but it definitely gets the job done.

Excellent headphones, bad name!
||Posted .

Calls are very clear at both ends. The iOS app that I use to control many of the features is very easy to use as well. Recommended!

Sony WH1000XM4 Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a couple of long flights coming up and decided that I needed to upgrade my headphones to noise-cancelling. These were on-sale, had good reviews, so decided to try a pair. Went to Best Buy to look at them and thought they sounded great. When I got home, I realized that the headphones came in a nice case and included a detachable wire so that I could plug directly into the airplanes system, perfect! Now I have the ability to go wireless or wired and have a great sounding pair of headphones.

Pricey but worth it
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these for back to school since I’m a college student and I need something that is noise cancellation and has long lasting battery. I use it to listen to recorded lectures as well as music when studying. I guess the only con I have is that I still can’t figure out how to connect it to both my laptop and iPhone and be able to make an easy transition from either devices.
