Decent but not great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Given that I bought these on sale and feel that they were still overpriced for what I got? These are massively overpriced. Semi-decent noise control, but not very effective. The noise cancelling is unequal between the right and left side, which makes it feel like one of my ears is plugged up somehow. The app is useful only in that I could tell it to stop switching to ambient sound every time I stood up- that was obnoxious. So, okay but far too pricey at full price for what I received. Skullcandy was far better imo

Posted .Hi emgo2,
Thanks for reaching out and sharing your feedback about your WH-1000XM4 headphones. We're truly sorry to hear that they haven't lived up to your expectations. We can certainly understand your frustration.
We take customer feedback seriously and what you've described, particularly the imbalance in noise canceling between the right and left earcups, is something we'd like to help you with. That definitely isn't the experience we want for our customers.
A good first step to address that uneven noise canceling is to try the "NC Optimizer" function in the Sony | Sound Connect app. It's designed to optimize the noise canceling based on your head shape, hairstyle and even whether you're wearing glasses. Just put the headphones on, open the app, and look for the 'NC Optimizer' option. It should only take a minute or two to run.
If that doesn't solve it, sometimes a quick reset can help with these kinds of issues. To reset your WH-1000XM4 headphones, please follow the instructions on this link: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm4/v1/en/contents/TP0002752743.html
If you've tried both of those steps and you're still experiencing the issue, please contact our support team at https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=headphones
We appreciate you giving Sony a chance with this product.
Sincerely,
Estefany

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the headphones. Still utilizing it with no issues and getting used to the controls. Sometimes it will switch from noise canceling to else but I think it’s more a user error than system error.

ANC Champions
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best ANC headphones yet! The multipoint Bluetooth is great when you figure out how it works. The sound cancelling optimizer originally ruined the noise cancelling after I used it twice but I exchanged them and they’re back to normal.
