Posted .Hi LydiaF, Amazing! We're so glad to hear you love the WH-1000XM4 and you've had an enjoyable listening experience with these headphones during your 9 hour flight.

Quick charging gives five hours of playback with just a 10-minute charge.

Using our advanced noise canceling technology, we designed these headphones so you can block out noise and experience next-level silence. Plus, you have the ability to use the convenient smart features including Quick Attention, Google Assistant/Alexa/Siri compatibility, and touch controls. Thanks for choosing Sony! -Jess

Good sound, annoying headband noise.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I didn't like the Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones. I used them daily for a week and here's my take: The sound profile is bass heavy, but this can be adjusted and they sound great. The left ear cup makes a physical cracking noise, probably caused by the movement of the ear cup against the headband. This noise is generated by the slighest head movement. They have a touch interface on the right ear cup that works well.

Posted .Hi TechBoy, Thank you for the feedback on your experience with your WH1000XM4. While we're glad you like the touch panel sensor function and sound quality especially when adjusted using built-in EQ of the Sony headphones Connect app, we regret to hear about the crackling noises from the unit. If you hear buzzing, popping, crackling, or vibration noises from your Bluetooth® headphones that sound different than the more common static or distortion sounds caused by environmental interference issues, please contact our product support team via phone call or chat through this link: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/service?language=en_US for further assistance.
The WH-1000XM4 is a new design, with intelligent and intuitive Ambient Sound Control features that include improvements to Multipoint connection and our industry-leading Noise Cancelation, exceptional sound quality, and Smart Listening that adjusts to your behavior and location.

Good sound but
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good headphones replacing my old ones. There are minor issues in their usage. First I kept getting beeps in it and had to research what it is, and how to shut it off. The biggest issue is I cannot get it to work by default with my iPhone calls.

Posted .Hi Jarhead, We value your feedback on the WH-1000XM4 Wireless Noise-Canceling Headphones! We apologize for the inconvenience. Depending on how you wear the headset, the noise-canceling effect may vary, or a beeping sound (howling) may occur. In these cases, take off the headset and put it on again. Don't cover the microphones. The noise-canceling function or the Ambient Sound Mode may not work optimally, or a beeping sound (howling) may occur. In these cases, take your hands off the headset microphones. A warning beep sounds and the color of the operating indicator (blue) becomes red. If you hear the voice guidance say, “Low battery, please recharge headset”, charge the headset as soon as possible.
When the battery becomes completely empty, a warning beep sounds, the voice guidance says, “Please recharge headset. Power off”, and the headset automatically turns off.
To turn off the WH1000XM4, Press and hold the (power) button for about 2 seconds until the indicator (blue) turns off. You can also turn off the headset with the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app.
For more details, please check the help guide:
