Sony Wh1000xm4 you may be stolen but will be rem….
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I miss them so much! I recently graduated college with my masters and love using them to study or simply being deep in thought with the ANC feature. However they were stolen. Now I only have the memories of studying together, getting ready for football games, long walks, and helping me with my mental health. Holding one hand on one ear cuff was a killer feature so I can talk and hear my surroundings. I highly recommend and I know the M5 may be even better.

Sony Wireless Headphones - Noise Cancelling
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent sound quality with superior noise cancellation abilities. Neat feature to "mute" the noise cancelling with just the touch of the outer headphone, makes communication with other individuals in the room very easy. Battery duration is excellent and super comfortable to wear for extended periods of time.

I Love These Headphones!

They’re super comfy and plush, and NOT too heavy. The noise cancelling function is outrageous! And the speak to mute function comes in handy… the app helps you adjust volume and eq…. And you can change the LEVEL of noise cancelling!

Best headset for my needs.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have tried 5 different headsets and these are by far the best ones. Previous version broke after a few months, but this set has held for well over a year with no drop in sound quality both Bluetooth and wired. I use them on my PC with a separate bluetooth adapter for my computer and there is no quality issue. I use my headset for gaming, listening to music, and watching videos. A few issues to list: -Speak to chat often enables itself and I have to disable it by holding 2 fingers on the right side. This happens at random when I talk to people around me with the headset on. -If others in your household also have wireless headsets, the connection might struggle. (Roomates have wireless Steelseries). -No PC interface, it all has to be done through your phone app, which I rarely open. -A little pricey. It's a really good headset, but I would like more people to have access to this.

Posted .Hi DeValere,
Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the Sony WH1000XM4. We regret to hear about what happened to your previous headphones. We're glad that you like the sound quality of the WH1000XM4 headphones.
The Speak-to-Chat mode activates when it detects the speech of the person wearing the headset, but in rare cases it may activate in response to the voices of other people, ambient environmental sounds, transportation announcements, etc. Disable Speak-to-Chat in cases where the Speak-to-Chat mode frequently activates by accident.

Absolutely the best over ear headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Any review that reads that these are the best headphones for the money is spot on. This from a long time Bose disciple. Great comfortable (even when on the wrong way for a couple of hours without realize it), absolutely great sound, and very good battery life.

Great headphones, great battery life.
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to block out ambient noise so I could listen to my music, audiobooks, tv, and movies while I had downtime in my shop. It does a great job keeping out droning noises, but if there's a loud bang anything like that it would pick it up and pause anything I'm listening to at the moment. I've used this for long flights and it's been a godsend for when there are crying children on flights. I've worn it for about 8-10 hours at a time during flights or when I'm honed in on gaming/work and it does get quite hot around the ears so you will sweat. Not sure how to get around that, but the noise canceling, audio quality, and battery life were well worth the purchase. This pair is probably my most expensive purchase as far as OTE headphones go but was worth it. There's an app that you need to download with it but I don't really touch it. Sort of a set and forget and only go back to it if I need to toggle certain settings.

Quality over loudness
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.4.5 stars. The crispy, smooth sounds controlled by the connection eq make these headphones great. Noise canceling could be a bit stronger, giving more volume. They lasted three days on full charge.

New Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sony Wireless Noise Canceling Over the Ear Headphones are the one I will hang my hat to say that I love them. Love the the clear sounds of the music I listen to as a dj I can actually hear the highs and lows of the the music. Clear sound of the spoken words I can actually hear the words very clean and clear. I also have the ability to turn on a setting that will allow for automatic stoppage of my music if a call comes in or if someone walks up to me while wearing these headphones. The fit over my ear is comfortable and not pitching. Nice snug fit.

Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These came highly recommended to me, but that didn't even begin to do them justice. I nearly cried when I first put them on and heard the amazing soundscape they provide. The ANC is amazing, the full clarity of the range is mind-blowing, and they are comfortable enough for hours and hours of listening.

GREAT headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I can't say enough great things about these Sony headphones! I did a LOT of research and analysis before making my decision. I compared the Sony with the Bose 700 and Apple AirPods Max. The price point alone was a significant factor in my decision. But there were other important reasons I decided on the Sony. The noise cancellation technology is excellent. I have used these on several plane rides and it cancels out all the background noise. However, when important announcements come across, the voice recognition technology allows for those important messages to come through. The sounds quality is what you have come to expect from Sony. Great sound and deep, rich bass. The battery life is excellent. And if you're running low, a quick charge gets you going again. Overall, these are exceptional headphones. My 2nd pair of Sony's and a great purchase for the money.

They’re everything I wanted and more
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these so much!! I get overstimulated a lot and I really wanted a pair of headphones that had noise cancelling (I have a pair of AirPods but I feel like they don’t do much) and these are perfect. I wear them everyday, at home and at work and sometimes to sleep (they do stay on!) and they’re super comfortable. 10/10. I would buy another pair for sure.
