Best Ever
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased the Apple AirPod Max’s before these and hated them. Far too heavy, wouldn’t stay on my head and gave me headaches. These, however, are a dream! So comfortable, incredible audio, just a fantastic set of wireless headphones.

Birthday Gift for Myself
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am in love I treated myself to these for my birthday. It was a richer clearer sound. A single charge lasts awhile. My only complaint would be I also have Samsung buds pro, and i like that when i start talking it lowers the sound and starts back playing soon unlike these that take longer.

Better than my Bose 35’s sound and noise canceling
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are serious! If you want better than average noise canceling, and some good control over how to listen to your music with the App, a good bass boost, and 360 audio sound. These do the job with a great battery life for all day listening.

Great price. Beats the Bose.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I loved it so much I bought my in-laws the white and blue one. The sound is excellent. The Bass is not heavy. Worth the price. I know the 1000XM5 is out but I can't imagine it being that better than what they have already made. The battery is great.

XM4’s are awesome!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these headphones. The sound it great. I had to use the eq to clear up a few things, and the app was kinda buggy until recently. Overall great value, and you will not be disappointed. I miss some of the functionality because I have an iPhone, but overall I’m happy with them. They do get warm around the ears after about an hour or so for me, but I have yet to find a super comfortable over the ear headphone. Don’t like the touch controls, or the custom button.

Not Enough Volume for Home Theater
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Headphones worked OK, were easy to connect to home theater by bluetooth and were comfortable to wear. I bought these to use with my home theater to be able to watch movies with loud special effects so I don't disturb my neighbors. Unfortunately, these were volume limited and did not go any louder than where I have to keep my volume now. Plus, there was a noticeable delay when I was watching streaming services.

Posted .Hi Hoopier, Thank you for your feedback on the WH-1000XM4 headphones. We understand that you are experiencing issues with volume limitations and audio delay when using them with your home theater system.
For the audio delay, please try the following steps to remedy the issue:
Update Firmware: Ensure that your headphones are updated to the latest firmware version. This can sometimes improve performance and reduce latency.
Use a Wired Connection: If possible, use a wired connection instead of Bluetooth. This will eliminate the delay entirely.

Good headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I found these headphones to be very comfortable. They work as advertised. The volume control on the right earcup needs a little work but they are quite satisfying. I would recommend them over the apple iPods max as the max is much heavier. The app works very well. Noise canceling is very good.

Excellent noise canceling headset
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are very good. The build quality is sturdy, but very lightweight. Battery lasts a long time, at least 15 hours on a charge. I really like the companion app which allows you to personalize and fine tune the noise cancellation/ pass-through audio settings.

Great Sound, Mixed Features.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These sound very good and the features they come with can be very useful, though some of those features have a few annoying knacks that could annoy some people. Again, if sound is all you care about, these are great noise cancelling headphones that sound fantastic. Now for the issues. These headphones have a few quality of life features. For example, if you're wearing them and you begin walking, it'll turn off noise cancelling. Sometimes. If you tap the right headphone, it'll pause. Sometimes. If you take off your headphones it'll pause your media automatically. Sometimes. There are some great features though a lot of them are unreliable. These features can be turned off via the headphones app if it annoys you. Overall, a solid pair of headphones. I give a thumbs up.
