Very happy & always looking for excuse to use
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really a 4.7 only because they are not quite as comfortable as I would like. Can't wear them for more than hour (think podcasts). Dual pairing is brilliant (phone and TV) and swaps between devices automatically and effortlessly. I like the layout of the new app as well. Not a good a Philips Hue but way better than Sonos. Oh and yah they sound really good too :) I got them for $100 off with a my $50/yr membership!!! (so worth it).

Essential for work from home
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's pretty easy to become distracted when you work from home and have others making noise around you. The XM4s were worth every penny solely for the excellent noise canceling. TV on in the other room? No worries. Someone's talking on the phone? No problem. They won't block every noise, but if your music is on, odds are that's all you'll hear. As for the sound quality, these will sound phenomenal to anyone who isn't an audiophile. No issues there. I haven't found much use for all the extra features the headphones have - why do I need Google Assistant if my phone is always with me anyway? The autodetection of movement/activty is also more of an annoyance, I've found it much better to use the physical button to switch ANC on or off. Perhaps it would be better if you were on the move often. All around, excellent headphones and worth the investment if you work from home.

Excellent noise canceling and other features.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comfortable and effective. The chat and ambient features surpass my older Bose Quiet Comfort headphones and the sound is excellent. The touch is cool, but mechanical volume control would be better. Good value when on sale.

Frequent flyer must-haves
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased these headphones while on a trip having suffered great discomfort flying to my destination. The noise cancellation is amazing. Completely cut off aircraft noise making my trip home much more pleasant. I wear them while cutting grass. Riding mower sounds like a sewing machine. Only drawback for me is the “tap” system which interferes with the tap system on my hearing aids. I have to tap my ears twice to change hearing aid programs. Unfortunately the double tap on headphones is needed to turn off and on the NC.

Love em.
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love them. They are the best sound you can get for headphones that have all of the mobile friendly features that these have (Bluetooth, noise cancel, airplane adapter, mobile app with eq adjustments, multi device connections, nice travel case, wired & wireless). If you strictly want the best audiophile headphones you won’t find all of these features. With these features though, these are the best sound quality cans you can get. Maybe not out of the box, but with eq adjustments you can fine tune in the mobile app. You will NOT be disappointed by these. - budget audiophile hobbyist who uses these for best sound quality while on the go.

Don’t look for the XM5’s, get these!
|Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are honestly one of the best noise cancelling headphones in the market. Perfect for people who are looking to disconnect from the world and take a deep dive in the world of EDM, hip hop or any genre that can appreciate the punchy sound profile these have. The Sony app works really well in terms of EQ and connectivity, these are a gift when they’re on a deal. The XM5’s are great but, in terms of almost every area including ANC, the 4’s are a better option while saving at least a few $$.

Sony WH 1000XM4
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These Sony headphones are fantastic so far. I got them because of the active noise cancelling, which rivals all of the current Bo$e noise cancelling and surpasses all the rest. What has really increased my experience is all the "hidden" features that are explained inside the box. Laying your palm on the side of the headphones pauses the ANC, intuitive swiping up/down on the outside earpiece for volume and forward and back for skipping, the double tap to pause, all very easy/user friendly interface that makes them a pleasure to use.
