Worth every penny!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a few bluetooth headphones but these are definitely the best. Calls sound great even when walking in busy city streets. The mic is always clear and blocks out street noise very well when talking.

unecessarily annoying experience
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the best headphones I've ever had, or they would be if the announcer voice and button press beeps weren't 3-4 times the volume I listen at. They have amazing sound, and amazing noise cancelling but every time you press any button for any reason you receive a sonic bee sting. I tried to power through it but I've given up on these headphones and sony as well because both sets of sony headphones I have do the same thing with no ability to turn it off. I feel bad for hating on these for such a petty reason but there is literally no reason I shouldn't be able to turn off the announcer or beeps.

Sound is very marginal
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound very marginal. Surprised not really close to the Bose QC35 ii. The noise cancelling and comfort is very good. These are very disappointing for a $350 set of headphones. Also the controls are not quite as user friendly as you would hope for.

Excellent But For Bluetooth Connectivity
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent across-the-board but for bluetooth operation. Only 2 connected systems at the same time allowed and switching between these is not user friendly. I was also hoping that connection to a high end sony tv like a1e will be a bit easier and also user friendly. Bluetooth operation on these excellent in general phones is like texting on flip phone experience.

Posted .Hi LauraBaker, We're so delighted to hear you love everything about these headphones and that you are enjoying its incredible audio. While primarily designed for wireless audio streaming, the WH-1000XM4 headphones can also be used as a wired pair of headphones with the included audio cable. An ideal option for when you have an older, non-wireless device or you've run out of battery power. And, in case you didn't know, the noise canceling function also works when using the supplied headphone cable and with the headphones turned on. Thanks for choosing Sony! -Jess
