Get the XM4s only if you don't have the XM3s alrea
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought the XM4's because I lost my XM3's. No need to upgrade if you have the prior edition. There are new features that add some minor improvements but not really worth the extra $$. Gotta say the blue is slick! Hope Sony keeps this color way for the next installment.

Excellent Buy
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones. I think they're well worth the money. They were easy to setup, with the app. They sound fantastic. And they don't look half bad, either - they're not too big or boxy. I could see myself using them for years to come.

It's just you and tinnitus!

He's become a full time work-from-home engineer and said good bye to communal cubicles. But even at home this unit has delivered! Definitely recommend them.

Spectacular headphones, not so good shipping.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have no complaints when it comes to these headphones, except, the right bud will occasionally give-off staticy noise almost as if a person was blowing air into your right ear. This only happens when I have used ANC for long periods of time. Aside from the headphones, I strongly recommend not to purchase similar products from Best Buy, especially preorders! The only reason I decided to purchase my headphones on Best Buy, was because they promised my headphones would be shipped the 14th of August, a full four days before Amazon. Can you guess what happened? Shipping was delayed, and I could not cancel my order, despite my numerous attempts. They finally shipped FIVE DAYS LATER, and arrived that Friday. If I had simply ordered from Amazon, my headphones would have arrived a day earlier, Thursday. Best Buy, be honest with your customers. Don't lie to us, saying you'll get us our headphones earlier, when you cannot. We deserve better than that.

Posted .Hi BestBuysucks, we appreciate your feedback about the headphones. Make sure to update the software of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app) for optimum performance. We suggest that you also make Best Buy aware of what happened. We hope you'll have a better experience on your next purchase. Thanks for choosing Sony. ~Ralph

Posted .Hello Junior,
Thank you for your comment! We’re delighted to hear that you’re enjoying the noise-canceling features and sound quality of your WH-1000XM4 headphones. We sincerely apologize for any difficulties you may have encountered with the microphone. Your feedback is invaluable to us, and we will utilize it to enhance our products.
To ensure optimal performance, please check if the headphone software is updated, if you haven't done so already. You can find the latest updates here:
https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/wireless-headphones-bluetooth-headphones/wh-1000xm4/downloads
Additionally, here are some steps that might assist with the microphone functionality:
- Reconnect the headset to your source device.
- Ensure that HFP or HSP is selected for the audio profile.
- If your app has microphone sensitivity settings, please check and adjust those as needed.
If the issue continues, we recommend testing the headphones with different audio devices to help identify the problem.
Please note that the Sidetone function allows you to hear your voice through the headset’s microphone. This means you may also hear ambient sounds or the headset's operational sounds, which is normal and not a malfunction.

My only quarrel is it might get a bit uncomfortable but it might be my head. I would definitely get it again. The sound quality is your own personal movie theater. It does come with 3 months of free 360 music. It chages your life
