||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent sound quality, not as much low end bass as I would expect. But the noise cancelling, and new features of talk to chat, auto pause when you take them off your head and new options in the app really are an upgrade. Battery lasts me about three full work days so I’d say about 30 hour runtime is an accurate number. Overall fit and finish are incredible and far more robust in design and pretty durable than some of the competitors.

An Unplanned Upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got these because my old Sony headphones broke. It was an accident. They were in excellent condition and worked fine. It's just not as comfortable anymore, and I really don't want to tape it up. I will give it away to anyone who could use it. Anyway, the new headphones work fine, and it's taking a little getting used to with the lack of controls and the swiping nonsense. I prefer the controls on the headphones. I will get used to it, I suppose. It's a personal thing; I have nothing against the sound quality or the improved noise cancellation. That is a plus, as it is way better! Minus one star because I do not like the swiping.

Sony XM4s
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After almost a year of ownership and constant use 10+ hours a day for school, work and so on: I want to say that the battery life is insane, lasting all day and sometimes 3 days of heavy use. Charges fast but could be faster. Noise cancelling is way too good.

Absolutely Outstanding— But Pricey
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.To start, I want to say that I bought these headphones as a splurge and although I cut audio at some points professionally, I am not an audiophile. I bought these to watch movies, use on the regular for editing/cutting video, listening to music, etc. they were definitely expensive and although I bought them on sale for approximately $50 off, I don’t feel like I can safely justify a splurge like this. The pause/skip sensors on the outside are a bit finicky, I absolutely love the sound, and they are extremely comfortable. I also wear glasses, have piercings on my ears and had zero issues with discomfort of any kind. If you’re able to get past the price, I cannot recommend these enough.

Pleased!

Much improved version
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The official price is very expensive but with the Black Friday price of $278, the value proposition is much improved. Having M2 and M3 myself, 1000XM4 is a much better version to previous models with improved noise-cancellation and more comfy to ears. Most importantly it can now simultaneously connected to two devices at once without the need to manually disconnect one to the another. Very satisfy with its performance, the touching mechanism is still annoying though.

Best Wireless Headphones for the Price
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wireless Headphones can get a bad wrap from audiophiles, but the Sony WH-1000XM4's simply have the best all-around value of any wireless headphone on the market. They are comfortable, convenient, reliable, sound great, and have a great warranty. On top of that, they have a great app which allows you to customize your sound and enable/disable various settings like Speak-to-Chat.

Top rated in my book
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are light weight and mostly plastic, however the quality seems good. The sound is truly exceptional. These are wireless and connects to devices via blue tooth. They use a downloaded app that allows you to adjust settings including EQ to your liking. These are the best headphones I've owned. I don't advise wearing at the gym since they'll make you feel warm quickly. I'd buy again in a flash.

Great ANC Headphones
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just purchased these to go along with my AirPods Pro as I wanted an over the ear headphone. So far the sound quality and comfort have been exactly as expected. Still waiting to see how I feel about battery life because it’s not holding a charge as long as I thought it would. I have used a total of probably 5-6 hours and went from 100% to 30% in that time. I couldn’t justify the price of the AirPods Max and so far I have not been disappointed with my purchase.

XM4 > any other headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are way better than AirPods Pro, Beats Studio and AirPods Max are too overrated and overpriced. Offers better sound quality and headphone itself from all of those including XM5, not really worth upgrading to the new ones plus you save $50. Not much of a difference XM5 from XM4, also XM5 feel cheaper quality. Just buy these.
