Best headphones ever
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve loved Sony headphones throughout the years as early as the 1990’s (Walkman). The previous wonky headphones were great but this new model is just plain amazing. The noice canceling is second to none. I definitely highly recommend this headphones to all!

Great upgrade!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these headphones. I upgraded from the 3s and even though feature wise the changes aren’t drastic, it was enough to prompt me to buy these on sale. What really has me over the moon is that the ear cups are slightly larger than my older ones making them much comfier to wear.

Posted .Hi Javier,
Many thanks for the 5-star rating! We're glad to hear you like the superb sound and noise canceling features of your WH1000XM4 headphones. Bluetooth communications may be disabled, or noise or audio dropout may occur under the following conditions:
When there is a human body between the headset and the Bluetooth device
In this case, put the Bluetooth device in the same direction as the antenna of the headset to improve the Bluetooth communications.
When there is an obstacle, such as metal or a wall, between the headset and the Bluetooth device
In places with wireless LAN, where a microwave oven is used, electromagnetic waves are generated, etc.
Where there are other wireless communication audio devices or other people nearby, such as in train station premises or on a crowded train.

Choose these
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are fantastic. I also have the xm3 so these are very similar. However, better range and they link to more than one source. Noise cancelation is great. If you are a fan of bose, go for those, if you are undecided between the two, these are amazing and have some neat touch response features!

||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really great ANC. Found them on sale and couldn't pass them up. I'm sure the newer model is slightly better, but the cost savings makes buying these the better decision. Sound is good and ANC works well. Case was nice.

Class leading noise cancellation
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had the prior version WH-1000XM3 for about 18 months, and absolutely was amazed by the sound and noise cancellation, absolutely worth it for several flights. These have kept everything I loved about the prior units and, improved in a few small areas, such as multiple Bluetooth connection capability.

||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have owned Bose noise cancelling headphones for years. Was up for upgrading my QC35 II and debating over this and the Bose 700. The new Sony WH-1000XM4 wireless headphones is a clear winner compared to other noise cancelling headphones in the same price range.

Solid sound
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are solid headphones for listening to music while working, etc… Only issue is using them when taking a call, tend to switch to phone or computer speakers instead of coming through these. Have also been told that I sound like I’m in an old radio when they do connect and I try to talk on calls.
