Customer Ratings & Reviews

Id be the first one to say that these headphones are expensive. However they are worth the money for the sound quality and sound deadening alone. I have to travel a lot for work and these have been added as a must have when packing. When turned on you can barely hear the hum of the engine of the plane. Screaming baby, no problem with these headsets. Sitting next to a constant burper or someone that clears their throats; no worries the headphones got you. Ultimately these headphones are worth every cent.

Best headphones with ANC. Period. Comes with a case and usb type c cord. (Could be longer). Light weight and comfortable on the ears. You have download the app on the phone to fully utilise all the settings. At 279 it is really excellent.

Time had come to upgrade from my trusted wired Bose noise cancelling headset to a wireless version. After some research it became clear that for the most part a decision between Bose and Sony was just about a toss-up with each having features that would apply to specific users. I went with the Sony due to some sharp pricing, longer charge life and a "killer ap" the headphones turn off when removed. In use, I am not disappointed with my decision, they are comfortable for extended use, even without noise cancellation do a great job of keeping noise out and provide an excellent listening experience. Have not yet had the opportunity to test battery life but don't see myself ever testing the upper limits of battery life.

The minute you put these on you can feel/hear the difference. They are definitely noise canceling and are super comfortable. With the app switching from device to device is seemless and changinging the settings for the headphones is super easy.

It was gift to my daughter for Christmas. She loves it and says the sound and noise canceling works great.

Absolutely amazing. Sound quality is insane! The noise cancellation is also amazing. My favorite feature is definitely the pass through, being able to put your hand on the ear cup and hear others around you is so useful, especially since I am in a busy household. I love how they come with a carrying case, and fold!!! A lot of headphones now do not fold which is wild to me. Easy to transport, and store, oh and the battery life is awesome!

Great over ear headphones! Easy to pair with my devices. The Sony App is easy to navigate and set up. I don't like that Sony advertised 360 sound. You need certain music services if you want to utilize that. So I took a star off for that. Sound is amazing! My wife thinks they are loud at 50 percent. I love how they sound though! You can play with the different equalizer settings in the app to your liking. The battery life on these are great! Love the Noise Cancelling feature. I can sit in bed watching stuff on my phone while my wife watches TV and I cannot hear what she is watching. The USB C cable is very short, which I wish Sony would make it longer. But thankfully I have other cables that are long enough. Tried these and the Apple on ear headphones. They both sound great but having an Android phone I couldn't utilize all the features the apple one has. Plus they are twice as expensive. I was able to get these at a great price!

Best headphones then any other company, i have now had this for almost a year and they so far are still the best in the world. I have been using them for the gym and it works just fine, all you need to do is take them off for at least 5 minutes so that it wouldnt mess up the sensors inside or too much sweating. I have used them for 2 flights and i love the noise cancelations. It allows me to listen to my music peacfully and the sound is on point, the bass is super accurate and i can hear every sound and beat. Also great for gaming, makes me feel like if im in the fields which is cool, just need to buy an aux mic to be able to chat. Overall best headphones that are unbeatable.

So far my best pair of over ear headphones. Sound quality is great, as is the battery life and ANC.

Best pair of headphones I've ever owned. Amazing sound. No ear fatigue. Only negative is they do get a little warm after about 30 min. Great battery life

Great audio quality. Comfortable to wear while working at my desk

I had bought an older version of these headphones years ago. Somehow they have improved the quality of the sound produced. With the multiple ways to hear ambient sound when needed, this model will stay my favorite. The battery life is also second to none.

Love these headphone. Much cheaper than my previous BOSE headphones that were much more expensive. These have lasted longer and are doing great, wonderful sound. Easy to use and charge. 10/10

I tried the Bose 700 and these Sony xm4 headphones. All the other reviews I think are unhelpful because they compare them setting against setting without naming the differences. The Sony 360 sound is incredible - better than Bose - but only accessible if you pay for one of the monthly services like Tidal. Otherwise, the sound quality is pretty similar. However, the pre-set equalizers (with the option to customize 2) in the Sony I liked more than Bose that has a traditional bass, mid, treble setting. If you are using this for phone calls, Bose supposedly has better call quality but I could not tell the difference. What I can say is that Sony is better at muffling background noise with the noise cancelling off. And it is easier to get to noise cancelling off - both with the button and with a quick cupping of the right ear on the Sony. Bose picks up a lot of background noise when you are on a call and you are not talking - like a can opening, running water, and opening a bag of chips 50 feet away. Even turning off the noise cancellation (which I've now learned helps both Sony and Bose pick up less ambient sound through the mics), the Bose picks all this up while the Sony muffles these sounds. TV sounds can be picked up by both. Also, both Sony and Bose allow multiple connections. However, I found that the Bose switches better between my Windows 10 PC and my Google Pixel phone. I could not get the Sony to switch as seamlessly and automatically between these two as I shifted from music to phone calls. The Bose was instantaneous. The Sony is more compact because the ear pieces fold in. It feels more flimsy than the Bose but I think this is just a sensation because the ear pieces fold and rotate. The carrying case is slimmer for the Sony. Personally, I think the Bose feels more comfortable and is softer on my ears. But I imagine for other people the Sony would be better. This is likely just personal preference. Ultimately, I returned the Sony xm4 headphones because the touch panel has a beeping sound for every touch that you cannot turn off. There are a lot of other notifications sounds that you can turn off (especially if you disable an adaptive setting feature that is aware of where and what you are doing) but not the beeps that are associated with swipe up/down/left/right. If you don't change things often or if you are going to use your phone to make adjustments, then the beep may not annoy you. For me, the beeping was a deal-breaker - even though as you can see in my review, I actually liked the Sony better in terms of sound and phone calls.

Love these headphones, which I got when they were on sale... they are comfortable, good sound and can connect to phone and computer seemlessly. They did sometimes disconnect during a zoom session on my iPad though.

The ease of use and the weight are amazing. The touch to talk is a game changer and the battery lasts so long

These noise cancelling headphones are actually amazing. I was actually going to purchase a pairs o Bose at first but, after reading reviews on Sony's I decided to go with these. I am so happy that I chose these Sony headphones. Very light weight, easy to set up, sound quality is amazing and the pitch that plays in your ear is amazing. I highly recommend these headphones to anyone that is looking for the best bang for your money. Absolutely worth it!! Thanks.

Great comfort for long commutes or flights. Sony approaches noise cancelling better than some of their competitors in my opinion.

I brought these for my son and he loves them!! They are very nice, I tried them on myself, and I was very impressed on how comfortable they were. I personally don't like headphones for myself though, I prefer earbuds.

I love my Sony noise canceling headset. I bought it at a great price and they sound awesome. When i play my favorite music i feel like im in a concert hall.
