beautiful design and premium sound
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great looking headphones. Online they look more pinkish, and I really didn't want that. But in person its a much more premium stone grey collor with nice gold accents. It looks less feminine in person than it does online. Probably the best noise cancelling. I can't hear a thing and the multidevice connect is nice because i can have both of my pcs connected to the headphones at the same time. Sony's app is really helpful too as you can have every device there so you can quickly jump to all of them when you need to. The battey life though is the best, especially since i am always forgetting to charge up my stuff i don't have to worry with these

Really good but can do without the touch buttons.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really good, love the fact it uses USB C like all my other devices and allows wired audio cable for my desktop that doesn't have Bluetooth. Noise cancelation and battery is pretty impressive. Can do without the touch buttons, the slightest bump pauses, skips... the music/Video.

Excellent quality, ideal for travellers
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wow, these have amazing sound quality! I tested them side by side with the XM5s and honestly I prefer these, for sound quality. The noise cancellation is good, maybe not as good as the XM5s but still much better than my in-ear buds-live. I used them for about 5-6 hours at airports and on planes and they handled airport and plane noises well, with a brief loss of cancellation during plane landings, so no big deal. The battery stayed almost fully charged too, so these guys are no joke, unbeatable for frequent flyers!

Good headphones
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good headphones! The noise cancelation is very effective and it makes the music experience enjoyable. I don't have any complaints about it. I use it all the time for studying, doing errands, gym and much more! I highly recommend these headphones. Also the battery life is SUPER LONG. It takes a very long time for the headphones to die which I really like.

XM3 to XM4
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I still love the WH1000XM3. I think they are just as good as the XM4. XM4 has different features. I really did not notice more noise cancelling than others stated. These are super comfortable. I wear them when I sleep sometimes, as the noise in the city can be overwhelming. Great price for the quality. My XM3 lasted for ever and are still great!!

Great noise cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise cancelling is amazing! They do a great job of blocking out all the noises in the house and letting me enjoy my late night movie watching. I don’t notice any lag in the dialogue. A single press of the Power button while using them lets you know how much battery life is left. After spending an evening/night watching movies I have yet to get it to drop below 50%.

It doesn’t get any better than this
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ok, hands down this is the best pair of cans I have ever had. Had a chance to try everything at it and it just works. Sound and noise cancelling is tops in its class. The only thing I would knock is possibly the build quality (it is light for a reason). However, that could also be a positive because you can wear these for hours and hours and not have to worry about fatigue. I had fatigue issues with a Bowers & Wilkins set I use to have. The best build quality of them all, but it was a bit heavier. As long as you take care of these Sony cans, use the case always for storage, you shouldn’t have a problem. Enjoy these. Sony just keeps getting better and better.

A loyal Bose Headphone Customer Makes the Switch
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been a loyal Bose noise cancelling headphone customer since their first offering 20 years ago. I have owned 3 pair over those 20 years and I have always like the headphones but I have also always been frustrated by their byzantine approach to the controls on the headset. So when my last pair finally gave up, I made the decision to switch to the Sony WH-1000XM4's. I am SO glad I did. I love these headphones! Great sound quality, very comfortable, excellent adapting noise cancelling and intuitive tap/slide controls. No more fumbling around to raise/lower volume, just slide your finger up/down on the outside of the headset.

10/10 Quality Headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had these for about a year and I never leave the house without them. Noise cancelling is great when I am trying to focus on a task or listening to music. The ambient sound is also great when I need to more aware of my surroundings. Overall really great pair of headphones. The battery life is also great and can last a decent amount of time before a charge is needed.
