Best of the Best
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've owned Bose for the past 20 years and they were great for noise cancellation and overall sound. I've had these Sony XM4 for over 3 weeks. Meet the new champion. Long battery life. Excellent noice cancellation. Lots of great features like: Swipe Volume Control, Swipe Skip, Swipe Replay, Auto Pause when you speak and much more control and customization using Sony's app.

Good recommendation if ANC is a priority
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Noise cancelling is amazing! Comfort is also great, but the ears can get hot a couple hours in. Touch control can be a bit finicky, I had to exchange mine out for a replacement, but it worked ok after that. I hate having to adjust the headband slider every time I put them back in the case, since I use the case often, but that's just being nitpicky. Great headphones!

Posted .Hi ShohelA!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us! It is fantastic to know that you’re finding your WH-1000XM4s to be a good set of headphones.
We appreciate the honest feedback regarding the noise cancellation levels, as it helps us keep improving.
To boost the noise canceling on your WH-1000XM4, here are a few simple things you can try:
-Check the Sony | Sound Connect app: Make sure Adaptive Sound Control is turned off. If it's on, the headphones might be switching to "Ambient Sound" mode because they think you're walking or waiting, which lets outside noise in.
-Double check that the ear pads are sitting flush against your head. If there’s even a small gap, the noise canceling won't be able to do its job properly.
Thanks for choosing Sony and sharing your feedback!
Best regards,

I had the previous gen of the headphone and decided to upgrade and it was the best decision I made. They took the previous model and improved in every way. Sound never cuts and you can feel the bass in your ears. Truly an amazing experience to listen to anything with these on.

Best Daily Use Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been using these headphones for about a year now and it's been a game changer for my day-to-day. I work remote but the headphones work great for calls on all types of apps (zoom, google meets, teams, etc) and the ANC blocks off the background noise if you have some family. I only have the occasional connection issues but it isn't anything you can't fix with a quick reset.
