    Returned because the Bose is better. For about $40.00 more the sound is $400 better. However, the Sony was very good.

    I've had these headphones for almost a year now, and they are pretty awesome. They don't cancel out all noise (like on an airplane can sometimes hear what's going on around me), but for the most part they work great.

      Hi bhunter, Thank you for the amazing review! We're very happy to hear you're enjoying your Sony WH1000XM4. The noise canceling function is effective in low frequency ranges such as airplanes, trains, offices, near air-conditioning, and is not as effective for higher frequencies, such as human voices. If the effect of noise canceling is not sufficient, please follow the steps on the link below:

    These headphones are very comfortable when wearing. I have worn these for long oeriods of time and they do not hurt my ears. ANC is great also on these headphones, and the battery life is awesome, i can go a week and a half without charging them. Picked these up when they were down to $230 and they were so worth it.

    I’m sure these were really good headphones. If I didn’t already have a pair of my own, I would’ve kept them for myself. They were a Christmas gift and they weren’t my family member wanted. That’s why I returned them.

    Work fantastically. Knocked a star for the plastic proximity sensor inside the ear cup. My ear pushes right on it and causes discomfort after a few hours. The sensor adds the auto pausing feature. But I would trade it away for not having it rubbing on my ear.
