    These headphones make me happy. The noise canceling is amazing and the sound quality is also quite good for someone who isn’t a huge audiophile but still values quality.

    The nice quality isn't as bad as I thought. But it could be better the reason why I'm giving it. 3 stars is because the headband piece digs into your scalp. And it could hurt, especially after hours use or if you have thin hair and the battery life is okay compared to other headphones. It tends to run out at a quicker rate depending on the volume. And setting, you have it on. But if you're a Sony fanatic, these would be better than the latest generations like the last 2 generations, aren't as good as you would think. This one, because it's thicker in the muffle area has a better. Noise-canceling property than the others, but it is heavy not to an extent. You would notice in the very beginning. But after hours use, you do notice it

      Hi NicoAnd,

      Thank you for the candid feedback on the WH-1000XM4. We're pleased the Noise Canceling performance is strong and that you find it superior to previous models.

      We sincerely apologize for the discomfort the headband is causing during long listening sessions and the frustration with the battery life variability.

      To help maximize the battery life, please check your Sony | Headphones Connect app and ensure features like DSEE Extreme are disabled, as these can increase power consumption. For the headband comfort, some users find that a third-party padded cover helps alleviate the pressure. Your detailed observations about comfort and weight are vital, and we'll ensure this feedback is passed along to our product design teams. Thanks for choosing Sony.

      Best regards,
      Eliab sony-global

    Only get's 4 stars cause I'm not sure the adaptive Noise Cancelling automatically "adapts" to the current noise levels. Sometimes I have to reset the noise cancelling by turning off and on, then it seems to block out more noise. However, it is better than Bose noise cancelling blocking out more of the upper midrange.

    These are awesome. Have these alongside a pair of Bose QC 35ii and the sound is much more full. Noise cancelling is on par if not slightly better than the Bose. Prefer the sound of the Sony’s and really dig the inclusion of USB-C. These are great overall.

    Outstanding sound and value. The sound of this headset approaches that if not equals that of high-priced corded cans. If you want great sound, BUY THIS MODEL! It's better in its sound stage than its predecessor, the WH-1000XM3, which is also a great value!
