    I have used Beats (over the ear) headphones for many years. After listening to my son’s XM4’s, I knew there was no going back. After testing the XM6’s, while there are small upgrades, the XM4’s are proven and loved by many, including our family!

    Wow, I can't believe how great these are. I've had a couple of sets of noise canceling headphones in the past, all were on ear and I never really cared for them, these are so comfortable I could wear them 24 hours a day. The noise canceling is fabulous and they look great. Going to Paris soon and can't wait to use them on that flight.

      Hi barnesrph,

      Thank you for the 5-star rating! We added more cushioning to the headband and ear padding. We also changed the outside dimensions of the headphones slightly so they sit more comfortably over your head. 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. Meanwhile, the Equalizer lets you customize sound levels to suit your music. Thank you for choosing Sony!

      Regards,
      David Sony_US

    I wanted to spoil myself and get a better quality set of headphones for my new tablet and so far I'm pleasantly surprised. They set up very easily with the Sony headphones app and provide excellent surrounding noise cancellation. The battery life seems good as well. The case is nice and charging seems relatively quick.

    These headphones are not great. Theyre not adjustable so if you have a small head theyll never stay put. Mine dont. Ive also noticed that the volume doesnt get very loud. Its almost like the headphones come programmed to be a certain volume and that is the loudest they can go. I neat returned them for this reason. They comfortable as far as the ear part and i do think the noise cancellation feature is pretty cool. I bought me a pair and my husband a pair.

      Hi Lavisha,

      We're glad that you like the comfort and noise canceling function of the headphones. It's unfortunate that you were already looking to return the headphones. The headband of the headphones can be adjusted to suit your head shape. You may refer to this link for more information:
      https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm4/v1/en/contents/TP0002928786.html

      For optimum performance, make sure to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app). For the best volume experience, turn up the volume of the headset and the connected device. Connect the Bluetooth device to the headset once again.

      Your feedback is greatly appreciated. This will certainly help us improve our products. Thanks for choosing Sony.

    I like the sound quality. They hook up easily to my Roku soundbar and LG tv. My complaint is that they do not easily switch from tv to phone if I get a call while watching. Very disappointing feature but I basically use them for my tv so it isn’t a dealbreaker.

    Great present for my birthday. Got around Christmas on a good sale and after lots of research i got these for me and the boise for my daughter. She loves her but I like mine better. Also comfortable to wear and if my husband’s snoring gets to bad i put them on and it’s quiet even without the music

    Well, this is a premium set of headphones. And it definitely delivers. Noise cancelling is great, comfort is great, and sound is amazing. Very convenient having multiple devices on Bluetooth. The cost is high, so you may want to hold out for a sale, but they’re a good pair of headphones.

    Listening to music with my new Sony- WH1000XM4 is more enjoyable. The notes from different instruments flows sweetly, so mellow. No in-flight entertainment on my flight but with my Sony headphone, the movie sounded like it was seen on a big screen theater. The plane's engine's noise unnoticeable.

    These are by far the best headphones I have ever listened to. I was a bit hesitant to pay the price tag these come with. So I bought a less expensive brand, I was dissatisfied and returned them for the Sony WH-1000XM4. I am so glad I did! The old saying "you get what you pay for" is certainly relevant here!
