Best headphones I have ever owned!
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hands down the best headphones I've ever owned! I was never the one to splurge on headphones until I had a really long flight that I wanted to be able to sleep on. First off the music sounds incredible. I have listened to tracks that I love and have listened to hundreds of times and have noticed little nuances of the song I've never heard before. The treble hi and low ranges are insane and the bass hits just hard enough with no cracking or other issues. The noise cancelling feature works so well I still can't believe how good it is. I also love the fact that you can put your palm over the right earpiece to deafen the noise canceling allowing you to hear other people or important things like announcements without taking the headphones off. Google assistant works very well allowing me to call, check notifications, or text without having to pull my phone out. I guess my only negative thing I have to say about them is sometimes if i lean my head and it hits my shoulder during a workout the motion control on the headphone will change songs or mess with the volume. All in all this is the absolute best pair of headphones you can buy in my opinion and totally worth the money. This may be the best electronics purchase I have ever made! If you are on the fence about purchasing them but have the money to do so I would definitely recommend these over anything!!!

Great Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I honestly loved the sound quality imbedded within these when I had them. My partner has her pair still & I try to snag em from here when they’re not in use. If you’re looking for a great pair of headphones for your commute or just mere enjoyment of music, podcast, heck even tiktoks lol these are a really solid pair of headphones. I will say that when using them to speak up while using the mic as it picks up the voice fairly low & at a decent quality. It’s no shure mic but it gets the job done & battery on these is fantastic, no problems whatsoever for myself & everyone else i know who also owns a pair. App is user friendly and lots of configuring can be done, there’s literally a setting for everyone! Enjoy.

Amazing comfy headphones.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent headphones, very light and super comfy I can wear them all day long without feeling discomfort. Sound-wise they're great, nice rich bass although I would've loved a bit more volume. Noise cancelling in my experience with these is no joke, with the self learning software you will barely hear anything else, with music pumping out or not. Just some occasional hissing while used in pure noise cancelling.
I would recommend this to a friendBetter than I imagined! Outstanding!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Extraordinary sound options for all musical tastes. For my taste the base is perfect. Fit is also extremely comfortable for long movies or concerts. There's a learning curve to fully appreciate and try all that they can do. Be patient. Pairs extremely well with my lg V60 phone both wired and wireless. Also pairs well with Samsung Q80T TV. (must download app and follow the instructions!) LOVE auto shut off when you remove them and pick up right where you left off when put back on! Can also be customized to your own ears. Worth the money! You will have these a long time!

Xm4s reigning champion!!!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seriously, way better than expected. I trialed the AirPods Pro, returned them after a long flight, and the XM5, also returned them. The xm4s are the whole package. -Great compact, semi hard, case because the headphones fold. -Excellent Bluetooth connectivity in my experience (iPhone/Mac) user. -Excellent sound that is tunable through the app. (Missing on apple) -light weight. -noise pass through is the one minor thing that almost as good as apple. I don’t use it much, so I don’t care. The noise cancellation is just as good, if not better than the AirPods Max and xm5s. The xm5s can be buggy in my experience. From a pros/cons side of things the XM4, beat the xm5s, Bose, and AirPod max’s by a lot. Even if they were all priced the same, I’d still chose the xm4 it’s a bonus that you can find them cheaper than their rivals. Way to go Sony! Don’t get rid of this model.

Sony is at the top of its game!

perfection
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Turned in perfect conditions. Love the color not too bright but not too dark. Amazing sound quality. As someone who likes to still be aware of her surroundings at times, the ambience sound does an amazing job and so does the noise canceling. One of the best noise canceling headphones I had ever used, it covers my ears completely, not allowing any other sound to interfere. They are perfect.

Best Headphones out there.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best headphones ever. Blows Bose away. Noise cancelling is top of the line and I love how they can connect to two Bluetooth devices at once. I can be listening to YouTube and get a phone call and my computer will automatically pause YouTube for the phone, then automatically resume once I hang up the call. They're also very comfortable. I can wear them all day without any discomfort. Battery life is amazing.

Super comfortable and great sound quality!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the look and feel of these headphones. They are super comfortable. The sound quality is also top notch. I love the feature that detects your voice and pauses what you're listening to and the noise cancellation so you can talk to someone and hear what they're saying. The fact that there's an even newer model is crazy. The price point made this model so worth it and it's still so good. I only have two complaints, and they're totally minor. I know at least one of them is fixed with the newer model, which is that I don't like how they're stored. You awkwardly have to twist one side completely and the other bend at an awkward angle to fit in the case, it's judt a strange way to fit the headphones into the case. My only other complaint is that sometimes the bluetooth connection isn't great and the sound will be static-y. All I have to do is disconnect bluetooth and reconnect and it's fixed. Both minor annoyances that still made the cheaper price for the older model 100% worth it.

Over 2000 hours of use!!
||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 had my first pair for 4 years and used them everyday before the seal inside broke, which means it makes a small whistling sound in ANC is on. I had over 2000 hours of use!! I was so pleased with these headphones that I got another pair for ANC and that way I can use my first pair while working on projects and don't have to worry about it they get damaged.
