Went wireles
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Unbeatable headphones!!
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Best Noise Cancelling. Love these Headphones!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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!

Recommend for hyperacusis
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got these to help with hyperacusis and auditory processing issues and I recommend them. The active noise cancelling is great and surprisingly adjustable through the app (which you need to download to use them). I wear these every day and they especially help in places that are loud or have a lot of background noise. They are comfortable and the battery lasts a long time

Great for Day-to-Day use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really high quality. Look good. Sometimes it can be a little annoying how it auto-pauses when you speak. Any time I sing, it thinks I'm talking to someone and pauses the music. I'm sure there's a way of turning this off using the app, but I haven't gotten around to it yet. I think it's great for college students.

We couldn’t be happier to hear that you appreciate the high quality and stylish design of the WH1000XM4 headphones. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the auto-pause feature during speaking or singing. To disable Speak-to-Chat, simply hold two fingers on the touch sensor control panel until you hear the voice guidance say, “Speak-to-chat deactivated.” For more detailed instructions on managing this feature and other settings, please visit the Sony Sound Connect app guide at: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/hpc/v1/en/contents/TP0002935924.html
