BEST HEADPHONES EVER
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Personally, i struggle with the noise around me while trying to focus. These headphones cancel noise like crazy, even without playing something. I use them for school and working out. They are better than the apple producs, and cheaper. I recommend these to anybody, they are my favorite!

Quality Headphones - Low Cost
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Outstanding head phones!! Great noise canceling. So happy to find these at a cost way less than other brands. Cheaper not always better but, in this case, not true. I tested against other brands and found quality of these to be outstanding. I win!

Bluetooth rarely connects to the right device.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound quality is great, but if you pair these headphones to two devices, they will always choose the wrong device. You can be on a Zoom call on your computer and if someone calls on your phone—even if you don't answer it—these headphones will switch to your phone and not switch back until you've powered them off and on again. If you're playing music on your phone and open a browser window that autoplays sound, you'll have to restart the headphones, restart the music app, and then restart the headphones again. I've mostly solved the problem by never connecting these to my phone, or turning off Bluetooth in my phone when I'm using the computer. The microphone in these sounds a little bass and flat when used in Zoom calls, but it's fine.

Good
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like these. They have a sleek look. They come with an app that lets you adjust and personalize the settings. The noise cancellation settings are pretty good! Right on par with Bose I'd say. My only qualm is that you cannot personalize the sound settings while connected on macbooks. The app only allows you to do it while the headphones are connected to your phone rather than other devices.

Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these prior to a set of flights overseas and they were amazing.

Great sound, issues with Zoom
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been a long time fan of my Bose QC35s and spend most days on back to back Zoom calls for work. But I've had these for about 3.5 years so I figured it was time for something newer and hopefully better. After lots of research, it seemed the Sony WH-1000XM4s were newer and better. They do have really great sound quality when listening to music or editing video projects. The app seems fine as well. But where things get weird is when I use them with Zoom. Several people have said that I now sound like I'm talking through a radio, and when I turn them off and put the Bose back on, they notice a drastic difference in how I sound to them. Curious if anyone else has experienced this or if perhaps my pair is a lemon? I doubt it though. Considering I spend so much time in Zoom, I don't think I can justify keeping these headphones if I now sound worse to those on the other end. If you're just listening to music, they're great headphones, but again, for the price they should be great at everything they do.

Not worth the money imo
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s a normal pair of headphones with noise cancellation. Sounds decent, I’ve def had better for cheaper. Not worth the $300+ price tag. Your literally just paying for noise cancellation. If you want headphones with better sound and better frequencies look somewhere else.

Think before you buy
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.stating pros and cons over 1000xm3s pros xm4s have multipoint where it can connect to more devices. xm4s use bluetooth 5.0 sound profile can sound better to audiophiles but xm3 is still good for every other type of audience cons with ANC on the xm4s are about 20 hrs while xm3 are 24 hrs.. sony lied about the 30 hrs. the xm4s dont have aptX codec while xm3s do it xm4s have bad touch controls so you may use the app more. if you can find a sale on it go for it, If not stick to the xm3s
