The only bummer is you cannot use it while it is charging. Not sure if the others can be used while charging either. Just make sure you keep track of the battery and charge at night.

Sony Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the sound form these headphones. I’ve used my husbands Bose Quiet Comforts in the past, and wanted my own noise canceling headphones. Besides just great sound, you have touch options and they also come with the old school airline adapter. Even with Bose being high end, they don’t give you an adapter. I like that these came in blue as well as the more basic black and silver options. No regrets at all buying these.

Great sound!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Crazy good sound even now in 2025, it holds up pretty good for any use, although I would say the sound leaks a little more than I’d like.

Posted .Thank you for your review, Estyebra! We're thrilled to hear that you think the WH-1000XM4 headphones have "crazy good sound" and that they still hold up so well in 2025. It's wonderful to know you find them great for any use.
We appreciate you bringing up your concern about the sound leakage. The WH-1000XM4 headphones are designed with a tight seal to provide optimal noise cancellation and sound isolation. However, if the headphones are not fitting snugly, a small amount of sound can escape. We recommend checking the fit and positioning them to ensure they form a proper seal around your ears.
Your feedback is very valuable to us, and we will certainly share it with our development team for future product improvements. Thank you for choosing Sony!
Best regards,
Gus, Sony Social Media Team.
