Best active noise cancelling headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If your are debating between these and the Bose 700, just like I was. THESE ARE THE CHOICE. Hands down these beat the Bose in just about every category and the features are just worlds apart. You won’t regret this choice I promise !

The addition of Sony’s proprietary HD Noise Canceling Processor QN1 masterfully eliminates the noise around you. Listen all day with up to 30 hours of battery life. Quick charging gives five hours of playback with just a 10-minute charge.
To get the most out of your WH-1000XM4, download the Sony | Headphones Connect App. It includes Adaptive Sound Control—which automatically adjusts noise canceling based on your activity and an equalizer—which can be customized to fine-tune your music. Using our advanced noise canceling technology, we designed these headphones so you can block out noise and experience next-level silence. Plus, you have the ability to use the convenient smart features including Quick Attention, Google Assistant/Alexa/Siri compatibility, and touch controls. Thanks for choosing Sony.

Better than airpod max
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am just an average user. Dont have super hearing, so i think this is better because of light plastic weight. Althougt some think light weight plastic felt cheap but i rather wear something light weight with quality than something heavey.

5/5 Star Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really enjoy the soundproof audio. Even in the loudest settings, the soundproof does its job of minimizing the amount of noise I can hear. The headphones are also very comfortable. I had issues in the past where headphones would hurt my ears, so I could not wear them for a long period of time. However, these are extremely comfortable to the point where I can sleep just fine in them. They are easy to pair with devices and come with easy-to-follow instructions on how to set them up.

The best around ANC Headphone you can buy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.With several upgrades from the previous version the The WH-1000-MX3, Sony perfected these headphones. The upgrades are the multiple pairing, the speak to chat, slightly bigger ear cups, slightly better ANC, and slightly better sound quality, The XM4’s are simply far and away the best al around.

Great headphones with a few quirks
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great build quality, like the fact I can connect to multiple devices, easier to control through the app though, and it can be finicky. For example, if I'm on a conference call on my computer, then a phone call comes in the audio may drop if I don't reject the call quickly and then I have to reconnect, which can be disruptive. So I normally turn off Bluetooth on my phone while I'm on Microsoft teams calls.
