Not worth the money.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Where is the volume? A salesperson told me these would pump out the volume and bass better than Beats Pro or Beats Studio 3. He was wrong. I have wireless headphone from Seinheisser, Klipsch and Beats. Beats is the loudest, most bass kicking headphone out of them all. I returned them them within hours of purchasing these. Don’t bother.

Posted .Hi MamaSal05,
Thank you for purchasing our WH-1000XM4 Wireless Industry Leading Noise Canceling Overhead Headphones.
We regret that these headphones did not meet your expectations and had to be returned. This is definitely not the experience we'd like you to have. We truly appreciate all of your feedback as it helps us improve our products.
Although we cannot compare the subjective experience of sound quality between these headphones and other brands. we can guarantee you that these are designed to provide exceptional sound quality. When designing this version of the WH1000X we payed close attention to this detail because it is highly sought after from our customers.
In addition, you can also customize the sound to fine tune to your music using the headphones connect app. This will give you more control over your headphones and their performance.
We apologize for the inconvenience, and we hope you'll consider Sony in your future purchase.
Sincerely,
Erin

Great headphones, maybe buy the extended warranty
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these headphones Jan 2021, they worked flawlessly until about April 2023. Apparently the ANC mic's inside the earcups can malfunction (some people say that earwax gets in them) mine did not have anything on them when I took it apart. The only problem is that when these malfunction, there is a super loud noise emitted from the speakers which kinda hurts if the headphones happen to be on your head. Only fix is to send into Sony for a fix. Bummer
