These are nice
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise canellation is amazing, and the talk to disbale ANC is pretty neat, as long as you are not one of those that sing along. My only issue with these is that when I connect them to my TV, there is a static noise at times, other than that I can conncet to 2 devices at the same time and that works pretty well.

Very good but annoying clicking noise in right ear
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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!

Posted .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.

Best Noise Canceling
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best noise canceling I have ever tried, the quality is so good, I used a DAC with them and sounds great, but the best use is for the wireless with noise cancelling.

Great but please fix ‘2 devices simultaneously’
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fantastic, comfy and quality headphones. 4/5 because the”Connect to 2 devices simultaneously” isn’t as great as you’d hope. I have had multiple issues when I am listening to music via iPhone and then my headphones will randomly switch to my MacBook and I will have “dead air”.

Great for most part
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Headphones definitely help me study in many environments. Cancels out lower frequency noise better. Annoying high pitched voices not fully sound proof unfortunately. Not as noise cancelling as airpodspro but I still like them.
