Nice headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very nice headphones that everyone recommends. I like them, with a pretty design, and they never catch my hair, which most headsets do. The only issue is that they leak sound; other people can hear it pretty loudly from a distance.

Posted .Hi Phoebe,
It's a true pleasure to hear you find the Sony WH-1000XM4 to be an attractive and popular choice, and we especially appreciate you mentioning the comfortable design that prevents tangling. We understand your point about the audio being audible to others nearby. While the earcups are designed to contain sound, ensuring a proper, secure seal around the ear can sometimes help minimize the distance that sound travels from the headphones.
Thank you for your comprehensive review and for selecting Sony!
Regards,
Dominick
Recommend these to everyone
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My wife bought a pair of these for me for Christmas years ago and she's been jealous ever since as she felt the sound quality blew her Bose headphones out of the water. Noticed these were on sale this month and decided to surprise her with the gray pair - she couldn't be happier.

Great headphones, but has issues
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was able to snag this at a discount, and truth be told, they sound phenomenal. Once you set up the pairing app and tweak the equalizer settings to your liking, they're easily the most enjoyable headphones to listen to music or watch videos through. I've had them for about three months now and things have been greatup unil today, which is what is keeping me from giving these a full 5/5 rating is that they've developed a weird crackle/static noise in the right ear. I'm not sure what's causing the issue as I have been taking exetremly good care of the headphones considering the price I paid for them. It's a shame for such a pricey product for it to exhibit these issues, maybe I got a faulty pair. I'm not sure how to fix the problem at home and SONY hasn't responded to my inquiry about the issue. It also seems to be a common issue with the XM headphones, as far as I could find online, many people were plagued with the same problem on the XM3s.

We're glad that you like the sound quality of the headphones. It's unfortunate that you are hearing a crackle/static noise on one side of the headphones.

Great to return to after the XM5
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently purchased the XM4s again after having my XM5 break on me. While in certain aspects it's worse, which is totally expected from a previous gen product, the number one thing that stuck out to me is how the noise cancelling is much better on the XM4s if you wear glasses. The XM5 noise cancelling is really finnicky if you wear glasses, and going back to the XM4s, and no longer having that issue that I decided to just put up with makes the XM4s a much better experience for me. Also, it's nice the XM4 folds.

Not My Preferred Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall, these are good Wireless Noise Canceling headphones and are probably great if you have never tried Bose Quiet Comfort headphones or Apple Airpod Pros. Pros: Noise Canceling is very good Ambient Noise system is good Fit is nice Sound is great They turn off automatically Battery life is great Cons: Re-Connecting to devices is cumbersome Controls are terrible (Volume, Play, Pause, Stop) Default Settings are trash Difficult to switch between devices Prefer On/Off button than a momentary button Only extra button is useless Overall, I prefer my Apple Airpods over these. I would also prefer the Quiet Comfort Bose that I lost to these. The noise-canceling on these are superior to all, but they've become so difficult to use that I just prefer not to. What's the use of the greater noise canceling if you turning it on takes 5 minutes.

Great noise cancelling, some annoying features
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They have very good noise cancelling and good sound quality. They have swipe controls for volume, pausing, playing, and skipping songs. These controls work fine for the most part but can be annoying. The voice which lets you know when the battery is low and when it turns on/off is a little loud. It is also a little annoying to pair them with other devices because you need to turn it off and back on to do so. The noise cancelling and sound quality make these headphones worth the money, in my opinion. Far more comfortable and effective than others I have used.
