The Hold Standard for Noise Canceling Heasphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Probably the best travel headphones out there. Superior noise canceling, great sound. Lots of features but confusing to learn them all and you have to put an app on your device. Also annoying that they try to upcharge you for 360 degree surround sound processing which is pure profit for them

Nice
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall a nice feature packed headphone. I am NOT giving 5 stars is only because of this one option missing which i need a lot which is there is no option to switch between the connected devices. Ex: I use these headphones with my Cell phone and Laptop so it would have been better if there was some button which allows you to switch to previously paired devices which my Bose Sound Sport ear phones do rather than going to the device and connecting.

Sony XM4's

Go To Headphones for Noise Canceling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing noise canceling. I was on an airplane with a crying baby behind me and could barely hear it. Great quality audio and I love the auto-adjust feature on the noise canceling too. Only downside is they get a little heavy if wearing for a long time.

Best ANC Headphones around!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the best ANC headphones I've used! I've owned the Sony XM2 & XM3 prior to these. These improved on the ANC from the XM3 and those are still considered one of the best. The multipoint connection makes these so much better. My only issue with these would be that the "cabin pressure" feeling on these are ever slightly more noticeable than the previous models.

Great headphones

I had beats headphones before but the sound quality wasn’t there. These headphones feel like I’m at a concert. You can control the sound quality on the Sony app which is a great tool. I would recommend these headphones if you enjoy listening to music.

Great Buy
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise-canceling in this is amazing! I work at home and with the pandemic my kids are also home doing school. I throw these on and I can no longer hear my kids schooling and can get my work done with ease. Gaming is great with this pair with the 360 sound I can hear people from so far away that it gives me an advance in the game winning more often.

Excellent headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m not an audiophile by any means And have the bow 700s as well. I compare the two and I could say the NC on the Bose without music I do feel is slightly better. The Sony there is a hissing that is well heard. With the audio on it is hard to determine which one of the two are better. If you’re someone that enjoys more bass I would highly recommend going with the Sony over the Bose . I don’t think you can go wrong with either one. The app for the Sony though gives you so much more room to play with the options and adjusting it to your own means.

Posted .Hi Wes1894,
We appreciate your review of the headphones. Good to know that you like its sound quality and the dedicated app support (Sony Headphones Connect app). Make sure to update the software version of the headphones (via the Sony app) for optimum performance.
The noise canceling function is effective in low-frequency ranges such as airplanes, trains, offices, near air-conditioning, and is not as effective for higher frequencies, such as human voices. Check that the Adaptive Sound Control is turned off. Check the setting of the Adaptive Sound Control on the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app. When the Adaptive Sound Control is turned on, the noise canceling function may become insufficient.
If you're hearing the hissing sound from one side of the headphones, please let us know. May we contact you to help? If so, please email the below information to [email protected]. Apologies if you disclosed some of this information in your review and to customer service, we just want to ensure that we have your accurate details at the time of communication.
