    Popping noise using Noise Cancellation

    Everyone be careful when buying these headphones. They are for the most part good, there is a big issue that appears for a lot of users. When the noise cancellation is turned on the headphones will start making popping noises that get annoying. It’s a very widespread problem that many buyers report. Wish I would have known that before buying.

    Read a lot of great reviews about these headphones but was overall disappointed by the audio quality and the noise cancellation. It works very well but if you walk into another room it takes a moment for the sound to cancel out. I opted to return these and get the AirPods Max instead and am much happier with those.

      Hi ChelseaD,

      We're glad that you like the noise canceling function of the headphones. Your feedback about the mic quality is greatly appreciated. For optimum performance, it is recommended to install the latest software version of the headphones. When using a video calling application on a computer, switch the Bluetooth connection to HFP or HSP with the computer. During a video call, sound quality may become low due to the conditions of the communication line. You can also check the settings of the app that you are using for mic sensitivity if available.

      Thanks again for sharing your review and we hope you will consider Sony for your future purchases.

      We appreciate you sharing your experience with the WH-1000XM4 headphones. We sincerely apologize for the discomfort you've been feeling. For better comfort, please make sure to wear them with the (left) mark on your left ear and the (right) on your right ear—the left side has a tactile dot to guide proper placement. This helps distribute pressure more evenly and can reduce discomfort.
