Sony WH-1000XM4
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently purchased the Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones, and they have exceeded all my expectations. Overall sound quality is awesome, they drown out noise really well and I love that there’s an app where you can I have seen these go on sale from time to time, but I couldn’t wait, They last extremely long without me having to charge frequently which is a big plus.

Overall good
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall amazing headphones, love the audio quality as a person who has bought a lot of main stream over the ear headphones. I’d say these aren’t for heavy gym users. The band is pretty will and it’ll fall when laying down in my experience

We appreciate your positive remarks on the WH-1000XM4 Headphones' outstanding audio quality, and it's great to hear they stand out among mainstream options. We understand your concerns regarding stability during heavy movement, like at the gym or when lying down, as these headphones are optimized more for premium listening and travel comfort rather than intense physical activity.

Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

Noise cancelling does work!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Noise cancelling does work! Battery is great, but I don`t think it lasts for 30h with noise cancelling. It is also very confortable.

The best in its class
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am glad I purchased this. I was also considering Bose, but these Sony headphones won me over. The battery life is the best out of all the other headphones in its class. I can go 2 days before I need to charge the headphones. For example, I used this headphones for a full day (8 am to 12 midnight) and I still had 70% of battery life left. Also, my next door neighbor was mowing the lawn one day and all I heard was a slight hum of the mower with the noise cancellation on and no music playing & with music playing I did not hear the mower at all.

Wish they were smaller
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really loved the sound on these. Bought them for the primary purpose of enjoying my music more but fell in love with the ANC. The connection to 2 devices was really nice too. Wanted to keep them but they were unfortunately a little too big and would slip off my head if I tilted my head forward/backward or tried to work out

Wowza!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These were a Christmas gift for our 16 year old son. He actually asked for a different brand that was cheaper, but they didn’t have them in stock. These were a step up and we got a "No way! These are the best! I never thought I would get these! These are awesome! Thanks mom, thanks dad!" I would say we made a good choice. I'll have to admit...they are pretty sweet, from the comfortable ear pads to the noise cancelling to the fantastic sound to the capabilities of answering your phone. Great product!

Love them, but they are too big for my head
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really really love the sound of these, the features, the noise cancelling, everything. The only issue is my head might be a little too small because the end up being held up by my ears and that grts uncomfy. Trying to see if I can make them work or if I need to take them back and try to find some that adjust a bit smaller to my head. Ive had to put a sock underneath the headband part so it doesnt hurt my ears, they are super comfortable when they sit right though!

WH-1000XM4 Review
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Impeccable quality. I was hearing musical textures in songs I've listened to for years for the first time. The only negative thing I have to say about it is how sensitive the touch pad is. I'm always accidently hanging up.

Posted .Hi User144668,
We feel privileged to know that our headphones have allowed you to rediscover your favorite songs by revealing musical textures you hadn't noticed before. We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding the sensitivity of the touch sensor; if you find it a bit too reactive for your style, you can actually disable the "Touch Sensor Control Panel" within the Sony Headphones Connect app to prevent those accidental hang-ups.
Thank you for trusting Sony and making us a part of your daily listening.
Regards,
Dominick

Best over ear headphones I’ve tried
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely my fave over ear headphones. It’s so comfortable to use for long periods of time. The sound quality is amazing. The controls are 50/50, the volume is controlled my sliding your finger up or down and waiting to see if you did it correctly, which I don’t like. But there are actual buttons to turn it on or off as well as to toggle between ambient sound off and on or noise cancellation on. It also connects to 2 devices at the same time allowing you to switch between devices without reconnecting Bluetooth each time. One thing I found annoying is if you accidentally brush your arm or whatever against the volume side earmuff, you’ll trigger its action by lowering or raising its volume. Also the noise cancellation is just ok, it could be better but it’s still really good.

Life changing for traveling
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome sound quality. Tried the Bose quietcomfort initially and returned them for these instead. I used them on a trans Atlantic flight and it was incredible, couldn't hear the airplane at all. Battery seriously lasts FOREVER and the foldability is very convenient.

Best daily drivers
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony Headphones don’t disappoint thus far. I have never had more comfortable daily headphones. For those of us who aren’t audiophiles… well we won’t notice a difference between these the Bose, Beats, or even Skull Candy headphones. However, when you’re working remote and have these for over 8hrs a day these are the best for comfort and have good sound quality and noise cancelling.
