    I was looking for a headset to use at work and home and the M4's are a perfect fit. They are very comfortable and can be worn for a long time without discomfort and the mic works great for my Team meetings. The controls are easy to use, and connectivity has never been an issue. A bit pricey, but you do get a quality product. Highly recommend

    Very good sound and noise canceling, but I have now had two pairs and both have an irritating clicking noise in the right ear. Not audio, but more a plastic sound. Not sure what it is, but it's rather annoying for headphones this expensive. Everything else is fantastic though!

      Hi PatrickMahomesll, While we are glad to hear that you are happy with the sound quality of your new WH-1000XM4, we are sorry to hear that you are experiencing a clicking noise on the right earcup of the headphones.

      Depending on the surrounding environment, wind noise or hissing sound may increase when the Ambient Sound Mode is turned on. In that case, cancel the voice focus with the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app. If the wind noise is still significant, turn off the Ambient Sound Mode.

      If you feel annoyed or uncomfortable with White noise or hissing sound, please change [NC/Ambient] mode to [OFF].

      If you have never connected to the Sony | Headphones Connect app: change [NC/Ambient] settings by pressing the CUSTOM button on the headphones repeatedly until the Ambient Sound Mode is turned off.
      If you have previously connected to the Sony | Headphones Connect app: change [NC/Ambient] settings using the Headphones Connect app => [Sound] -> [Ambient Sound Control] -> toggle left to turn off.

      Resetting and Initializing the headphones will also help on resolving the issue.

      To reset, press both the (power) button and the CUSTOM button simultaneously while charging. The headset will be reset. The device registration (pairing) information is not deleted. If the issue still occurs, please initialize the headphones.

      To initialize, turn off the headset while the USB Type-C cable is disconnected and then press and hold the (power) button and the CUSTOM button simultaneously for 7 seconds or more. The indicator (blue) flashes 4 times, and the headset is initialized. This operation resets volume settings, etc. to the factory settings, and deletes all pairing information. In this case, delete the pairing information for the headset from the device and then pair them again.

      If you need further assistance with your WH-1000XM4, please contact us for help.

      Please email the below information to socialsupport@am.sony.com
