Really good value headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For 350$ these headphones have a great value for the sound and features it packs, for sure better than any headphones around this value, Bose 700 can’t compare to this at all. But if you “got money”, AirPods max is beyond this.

Pretty good, but could use improvements
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not bad for my first pair of noise-canceling headphones. They are definitely a must for working from home. They're comfortable and do a good job of canceling out low- and mid-range ambient sound. But high-octave ambient sound is still fairly audible even with noise canceling turned on. All in all though, they suit my current needs, so I'm not upset with this purchase.

Great Quality Headphones but...
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I liked these at first, but they did not compare to another brand I purchased. I did not like having to use an app to have the control settings. The other brand I purchased is able to work seamlessly without the app. They are great-quality headphones but did not like the user interface.

Posted .Hi Techie2o11, Thank you for choosing Sony. While we are glad to hear that you are happy with your new WH-1000XM4 headphones, we are sorry to hear that it did not meet all of your expectations. You can use the headphones even without the application installed on your Bluetooth device. The Sony Headphones connect app will allow you to change the settings of the WH-1000XM4 and these settings will remain even if the headphones disconnects or pairs to another device. The settings will only revert back to default when the headphones are initialized back to factory default. I hope this helps and thank you so much for your feedback.

Carl

Best Wireless Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used to be obsessed with Beats. I had the Solo 2 & 3 and Studios 2 & 3. However, I tested these Sony recently and I am never going back to buy any new Beats ever again! These headphones are much better and I think these are the best at the moment.

Posted .Thank you for sharing your feedback, CarlaV.
We are pleased to hear that you generally love your WH-1000XM4 headphones, but we are very sorry to hear about the frustrating issue with disconnections during calls or when speaking, which is causing you to miss requests during work time. That is certainly not the seamless, reliable experience we intend to deliver, especially for professional use.
The WH-1000XM4 has a feature called "Speak-to-Chat" that automatically pauses music and can disconnect from a call when it detects your voice. If this feature is enabled, it may be interpreting your work conversations as a signal to pause/disconnect.
We strongly recommend checking the following in the Sony | Headphones Connect app:
Check Speak-to-Chat: Locate this setting in the app and try temporarily disabling it to see if this resolves the disconnection issue when you speak.
Check DSEE Extreme: While less likely to cause disconnections, ensuring this is off during critical calls can sometimes improve stability.
Check Firmware: Make sure your headphones are running the latest firmware update, as updates often include stability fixes for connectivity.
If disabling Speak-to-Chat does not solve the problem, please contact our support team directly. They can guide you through more in-depth troubleshooting steps:
Sony Support Contact: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=headphones
We sincerely apologize for the disruption this has caused to your workflow and are committed to helping you resolve this quickly. Thank you for choosing Sony.
