      Hi Karina,
      It is most rewarding to hear that the WH-1000XM4 headphones are overall great. We also appreciate your valuable feedback regarding the volume range. We're always striving to enhance our products and your input is truly helpful for future improvements.

      To improve the volume range, you can download in your phone the Sony | Sound Connect app and check for firmware updates: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/wireless-headphones-bluetooth-headphones/wh-1000xm4/software/00261613

      Also, you can adjust the Equalizer settings to boost certain frequencies or overall gain.
      In the app, set Sound Quality Mode to Priority on Sound Quality, which can improve dynamic range.

      We hope this helps you.
      Thanks for choosing Sony!

      Hi TashannaR, Thank you for your review of the WH-1000XM4 headphones. We're glad to hear that you like them for your travels. We appreciate your feedback regarding the volume and the feature that pauses playback when you start talking, known as Speak-to-Chat. This feature is designed to automatically pause your music when it detects your voice, allowing you to have conversations without removing your headphones. However, we understand that it can be inconvenient at times. You can disable this feature through the Sony | Sound Connect app if you prefer. We hope this helps improve your experience with the headphones. Thank you for choosing Sony! - Romeo Sony_US

    From my honest opinion. These headphoes arent at all bad for nouse cancelation. They have the atmosphere that you can cgange whoch i thought was pretty cool. But a few con are one there is no bass unlike the skullcandy skullcrusher headphones. Second not loud at all unlike beats by dre. These are pretty neat though.

      Hi Austin,

      We're glad that you like the noise canceling function of the headphones. It's unfortunate that you are not having a complete experience because of the sound quality. For optimum performance, make sure to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app). You also have the option to use the app's equalizer function to tailor-fit the sound quality to your needs. For more information, please refer to this link:

    Sturdy, great noise cancelling headphones my son uses for the gym. The earbuds fall out of his ear while working out and he has lost a couple. This ones do not fall and are very sturdy with great sound.

      Hi Nick, Awesome! We are glad to hear you like the excellent noise canceling feature on your WH-1000XM4 headphones. These headphones have great cushioning and adjustability. This will help the headphones stay on your head while working out. These will work great for you while working out “Non-Hardcore”. That being said, these headphones are not specifically designed for sports activities and it doesn't have an IPX rating since it's not waterproof. I recommend you practice caution when using the unit while you are sweaty or when working out with these headphones so they don’t fall or become damaged during your exercise.

      The WH-1000XM4 is a new design, with intelligent and intuitive Ambient Sound Control features that include improvements to Multipoint connection and our industry-leading Noise Cancelation, exceptional sound quality, and Smart Listening that adjusts to your behavior and location.

The WH-1000XM4 is a new design, with intelligent and intuitive Ambient Sound Control features that include improvements to Multipoint connection and our industry-leading Noise Cancelation, exceptional sound quality, and Smart Listening that adjusts to your behavior and location.
