great quality sound. Look at xm3 also
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound and features especially with the price drop. The only thing is its missing the aptx codecs from the xm3s. The earcup controls are very handy and the pause when you take off the cups are something that you never knew you liked so much unless you already had airpods.

Excellent Quality
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for a nice pair of headphones that are noise canceling and has a nice bass to them. These headphones more than exceeded my expectations. They also pair well with two devices at the same time. This is my first time trying Sony's headphones and I'm looking forward to trying their future releases.

Not Much
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I didn’t feel like the sound quality on these is any different compared to my current Shure SE 215 earbuds… The build is fantastic and the headphones are very small. Color doesn’t look as pleasant and vibrant as it does on photos or pictures, it’s more like a boring mix of grey and beige. Noise cancellation is better than XM3 but it still can’t do much against noise such as laptop fans or desktop fans. My head still gets hot immediately as I’m using these. Overall, it was a mistake to give these a second chance. XM4 is intended for traveling on an airplane and maybe loud cities. If you want to listen to music or play games with good sound Quality, look elsewhere. I’ll be getting Shure Aonic earbuds.
