Descent Headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are descent headphones but I don’t think they’re worth the price. The noise canceling future is great and the audio is amazing, so if you only plan to use these for music, definitely purchase these. If you plan on using these for work calls on PC, avoid these. They didn’t work well with MS Teams or Webex. Every time I got on a call, the person on the other end couldn’t hear me and I was forced to connect to my phone or use another headset. For Music: Amazing Product For Work Calls with a PC based software: No so great

Posted .Hi Hill,
We're glad that you like the sound quality and noise canceling function of the headphones. It's unfortunate that you are not having the same experience with phone calls. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. For optimum performance, make sure to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app). These steps may also help improve call quality:
-Turn up the volume of the headset and the connected device.
-Re-establish the connection between the headphones and your source device. Select HFP or HSP for the profile.
-You can also check the settings of the app that you are using for mic sensitivity/volume if available.
Hope this helps. In case you need further assistance, please email the below information to socialsupport@am.sony.com. Apologies if you disclosed some of this information in your review and to customer service, we just want to ensure that we have your accurate details at the time of communication.

Buyer Beware
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the 1000XM4 at Best Buy on June 30, 2022. I didn't feel that the insurance by Best Buy was necessary for this expensive headphones. They worked great until... Last week, fewer than 4 months later, the right earpiece fell off through no fault of my own. I just picked up the headphones, and FLOP. Sony's limited "warranty" doesn't cover the repair. BTW it appears to me that the XM5 uses an entirely different earpiece attachment design; perhaps I'm not the only person who experienced what I think is a flaw in the XM4 design.

Good casual headphone
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound canceling and overall sound quality for the price range. However ogerall build quality is lacking as the drivers are surrounded and incased in plastic. Ear cups can easily wear out, however there is a way to replace them. Would NOT recommend for gym use as they are recommended for any activity involving water Does come with travel case Favorite feature is duel connect. Easily have phone and computer audio cycle as i do.
