Awesome headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wasn’t sure what to expect from these because some of the reviews were mixed but honestly I’ve never been so happy with a purchase. As a fearful flyer these were a godsend on my last flight and the sound quality is awesome. I love that you have an option to plug them in and be connected wirelessly. They are super comfortable and the battery lasts forever. Highly recommend!

Believe the hype: these are superb.
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For once, a product actually lives up to the hype surrounding it. This may be the most celebrated set of headphones produced in the last 20 years. That praise is deserved. By now, these cans are regularly on sale, so don't pay full price ($350). Easily the best-sounding headphones I've owned, with exceptional battery life (I regularly get 30 hours of playback on moderate volume and Bluetooth before needing a recharge). Great carrying case, too. There are some recordings in my collection that I can honestly say I never really heard before until I listened to them with these Sony XM4s. Be sure to download the accompanying app onto your smart phone to get full use of all the features. I don' want to go overboard with praise, but the simple truth is this headphone set is the best investment I have made in audio equipment in the last 20 years. They're just that good.

Smartest Sony Gadget
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Omg what a master piece these headphones are. Very comfortable you feel as you if you are not wearing them, very light in weight. Sound quality is exceptional. Noise cancellation performance is excellent. I almost wear this 8hr a day when I work and it’s easy when you are in meetings, and when you are off meetings it’s blocks the background noise and gives an additional level of comfort to your ears and you’ll not be distracted easily.

Sony stays top of class with these wireless noise
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently bought these after using the second generation version from 2017 with no issues. I didn't need to upgrade them as they were still in good shape but I passed them on to my son and got these for myself. Though my original pair were fine the upgrades on these have really improved and built on the foundation of previous gens to keep Sony top of class in noise canceling, feel and build quality. That's not to mention their rich sound. They are perfect to use in the gym and I don't have to worry about charging them every day because they have such a long battery life. I'll be enjoying these for as long or longer than my last pair from 2017!

Awesome sound, features, and
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I could go on and on about how much I love these headphones. The sound quality was my primary motivation, but my experience has been great overall. There are other convenient features, such as the ability to swipe on the outer side of headphones covering your ears. This action can pause/play, skip, and adjust the volume. From what I’ve heard from friends, they can’t tell the difference on a phone call when I’m using them to speak. The material is very nice and doesn’t flake or tear as I’ve experienced with other brands. In addition, there is an app that allows you to connect to them and customize the audio to your liking. This includes the level of bass, treble, etc. It can even process pictures of your ears to create the “best sound” according to the shape of them. I have had them for about a year and hope they continue to last for a long while.

Excellent Bluetooth headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been wearing Sennheiser HD280 Pro headphones, which sound great, but I needed something wireless and more feature rich for work use. I ordered the Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones based on a co-workers recommendation, and I am very glad I did. Sound - The audio quality is great for both voice and music. My HD280s are described as having a neutral audio profile, which is good for my studio use. The WH-1000XM4s have a more full profile to my ears, with a bit more bass and mid range. I like the audio profile, but it's easily adjustable if you don't. Comfort - These are very comfortable to wear for long periods of time. I have a large head (size 8) and these fit me fine. My ears get hot with the HD280s, but I have no problem wearing these all day (with a few breaks). Features - I found the app awkward at first, but managed to find everything I need. I remapped the custom button to turn Ambient Sound on and off, which is helpful in my home office environment. I also like the dual Bluetooth connectivity. This allows me to easily toggle between my work laptop and my phone audio. Overall, I highly recommend these headphones. They are expensive, but I feel they do their job very well.

I hope they bring this style back as the 5th gen are not foldable. Every gen hs an incremental improvement in sound comfort and weight, definitely better sound and quality than Apple products.

Headphones that deliver what they promise
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones along with the app are a complete experience and I would highly recommend them! Noise Canceling- As someone who is very sensitive to ambient noise, the noise cancellation features are really important to me. There are 20 levels of ambient sound controls, a wind reduction control, and a full noise cancellation control. You can let the app auto-switch what level based on what activity you are currently doing (running/sitting) or based on your current location. You can also control this manually. Battery Life- the battery life is incredible! I use these headphones every day all day. I legitimately use them 16-18 hours a day. Sometimes I forget to charge them overnight, and can use them the next day with a quick charge during lunch!!! I was impressed that not only could the battery actually last as long as advertised but they were comfortable to wear for such an extended period of time. Sound-The sound quality is excellent. You have the ability to set the equalizer depending on what you're listening to and personal preference, plus three custom modes. I'm not a loud listener but these headphones get LOUD!!! There are all kinds of features to completely customize and adapt the way you want what you're listening to feel and hear like.

Great noise cancelling headphones.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So I have never owned a set of noise cancelling headphone before and was very surprised at how well they work. They wirelessly connect to my phone and I can easily be in the next room without any issues. I can go a couple of weeks on a single charge (with occasional listening) and have even let them sit for a couple of weeks without use and then just used them without charging. Very comfortable as well.
