Posted .Hi HappyCamper, we're glad you like our newest industry-leading noise canceling headphones. Intelligent and intuitive, 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. Using the Sony Headphones Connect app, Ambient Sound Control lets you adjust the volume of background sound and gives you the option to allow voices alone to be heard. For total convenience, WH-1000XM4 headphones can be paired with two Bluetooth devices at the same time. So when a call comes in, your headphones know which device is ringing and connect to the right one automatically. You'll also be able to quickly, smoothly switch your headphones to either of the two devices at the touch of a button. Thanks for choosing Sony. ~Earl

Alot of money to hear "disconnected" constantly.
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They worked great at first. Now I'm having the disconnected issue. Every 5-15min the headphones disconnect and then reconnect. Its really annoying and irritating. I think sony is bricking them on purpose like apple did. Unfortunately for them, Ill buy bose next time. Fix your headphones sony!

It has decent sound quality but has some issues
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It has a decent sound quality. But, I had connections problems. Connected device doesn't see the hands free (mic) until I turn it off and on again. So, I returned it. Also, I would prefer physical buttons instead of touch controls

Posted .Hi Sparky, thank you for your feedback. While we are glad you like the great sound quality of our XM4 when listening to your music, we are sorry if the call quality of these headphones did not meet your expectations. The XM4 provides great call sound quality when connected to a smartphone or mobile phone that supports the Bluetooth profile HFP (Hands-free Profile) or HSP (Headset Profile). However, your voice will be heard from the headset through the headset’s microphone (Sidetone function). To get the most out of your XM4, we recommend updating its firmware to the latest version (2.0.7). The software includes key features, applications, bug fixes, and feature improvements. For more information please refer to the following link:
