Worth the upgrade from the WH-1000XM2's
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I finally upgraded from the WH-1000XM2's and the difference between the two models is greater than i had thought. First, Sony continues to enhance the incredible sound quality from previous generations of the product line. The construction of the headphones feels much more secure and solid as compared to the older generations which often broke near the headband. The slimmer headphones also appear to be noticeably less bulky on my head while being worn.

Speak to chat works for me whenever im at the store or at home doing yard work with my family, and the pause whenever you take them off is helpful as well.

The best sound!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best sound quality headphones for me and based on CNET. It is the best, and loud and the hardware functionality to stop play when you speak to someone and take it off your head is amazingly smart. The sound and hardware. And definitely a need to be able to connect to two devices. The previous only connected to one, and that was an angering inconvenience. Definitely an additional fix worth the upgrade.

Great sound quality and convenient.
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They are great. The sound quality is just as good as more expensive options, and I prefer it over the XM5 since it can fold. The only issue is that the it pauses too long after a conversation.

Good headphone
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The battery and the sound quality is better than Bose N700 imo, the only downside is the mic quality for phone call is lit as good as the Bose. Other than that, it is a really good headphone with ANC

Good Pair of Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In my opinion this is one of if not the best ANC headphones for under 500 USD. I would probably get a skin on them since the matte material can get scratched up but other than that, it is a very good device

Great Sound and Isolation
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These have two great attributes. Great sound, and great no-sound. First the sound. I've been using wired headphones for years. Tied (by wire) to the computer, I have dutifully sat in my chair for hours, watching instructional videos, etc. Now, I get up and walk around, still hearing the audio, while stretching my legs, even walking around the house. The no-sound is just as enjoyable. I'm wearing them now, while my wife is watching tv. Very quiet.

Gift for teenage daughter

She loves em so much, and uses em so much, that, frankly, it's annoying that I have to keep repeating myself when talking to her. It's like talking with a deaf person.

Nice sound. Avg noise cancellation.
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pros - Good sound quality - Awesome noise cancellation (for the user). Meaning, I don’t hear surrounding noises when listening with this headphone Cons - Bad mic noise cancellation. Meaning, although the noise cancellation for me is good, the noise cancellation for outgoing signals from mic is bad. If I am in a noisy envt, I will not be disturbed by a single background noise. But the person I am talking to will hear all the background noise. I’d expect such costly headphones to cancel the noise from mic in such a way that the person on the other side will hear only my voice and not the noise in my side of the background.

Posted .Hi Akash, thank you for your feedback. While we are glad that you like the sound quality and noise canceling function, we regret that the person on the other line can hear background noises when using the headphones for calls.
Make sure to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app) for optimum performance.
Depending on the surrounding environment, wind noise may increase when the Ambient Sound Mode is turned on. In that case, cancel the voice focus with the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app. If the wind noise is still significant, turn off the Ambient Sound Mode.
For call quality, re-establish the connection between the headphones and your source device. Select HFP or HSP for the profile. You can also check the settings of the app that you are using for mic sensitivity if available.
The WH-1000XM4 headphones offer further improvements to our industry-leading noise cancelation, exceptional sound quality, and smart listening that adjusts to your behavior and your location.
