Nearly Perfect Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I went back and forth between these and the XM5's and these are so much more comfortable. The only downside to these vs say the Bose QuietComfort headphones is that there isn't a dedicated button to enable bluetooth pairing. You have to turn them off and back on again to enter pairing mode, it's a very weird setup.

Posted .Hi redmondson8,
Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the WH1000XM4. We're thrilled that you like the comfort of the headphones. Your feedback about the Bluetooth pairing function is greatly appreciated.
When you pair the headset with a device for the first time after you bought it or after you initialized the headset (the headset has no pairing information), the headset enters pairing mode automatically. When you pair a second or subsequent device (the headset has pairing information for other devices), press and hold the (power) button for about 7 seconds. Check that the indicator (blue) repeatedly flashes twice in a row. You will hear the voice guidance say, “Bluetooth pairing”. You may find this link helpful:

Great Sound. Great Controls.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've owned several headphones, including 3 Boses, 2 JBLs, and a few others. These Sony headphones are the best sounding I've owned. The noise canceling works great. The controls take some getting used to, but once you figure them out they are genius. Far superior to the Boses controls. I use them primarily with my Samsung Note 9 and Samsung Smart TV. I haven't had any issue pairing or keeping them connected. I use them regularly outdoors while doing chores.

Junky headphones with too many bells and whistles
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are chanty garbage for the price. I wore them for 2 months, not even daily, and one of the ear cups snapped off just from removing them off my head. Sony warranty does NOT cover physical damage and they want me to pay hundreds of dollars to repair their poorly made product. On top of that any time you try to slightly adjust the ears, settings get messed up and your music will pause. The noise cancelling feature also kicks on and off at random times. These just do not make for a great listening experience and they are not well made. You're better off getting a cheap pair of SkullCandy. At least when they break you're not out $500+. Do not buy this product.

A Blast to the Past
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This headset was what I thought I wanted to replace my old Sony that was 15 years old. It seemed uncomfortable for long use. It was too heavy and too pricy. I saw so many new choices I had to try.
