WH-1000XM4 v. QC-35II
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was between these and the Bose QC-35II's but after doing a side by side comparison of the two (using friends pairs of each) ended up going with the Sony WH-1000XM4's...especially since I snagged them when they were on sale, which I have to say after a month of use, I definitely would pick these over the Bose even at their regular price (~$30 more than the Bose). Quality built, exceptional sound, battery lasts forever and super easy to use.

Hurt my head
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are pretty good. Good sound quality, work well with teams, etc. I returned them because of the fit. I wear headphones all day for work and these caused pain on the top of my head due to the shape. I don’t get this with the Bose quiet comfort or hyperx gaming headset.

Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable, noise cancelling did the job well. The sound quality is great, but the bass is a little bit too much for me personally, but it supports the Sony's app so it was fine. The DLSS Extreme didn't really "enhance" my experience, but it might be that I'm used to many kinds of headphones and compressed audio. Overall, it's a great product, but too many features that you won't even use.

Peak (on sale)
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are awesome, I use these to jump rope and relax on my patio. The noise canceling is awesome and does its job. My son has autism and uses the ANC when he's in large crowds. My favorite feature is the quick ambient mode, simple hand over the right headphone and you can have a quick conversation, even lowers your music volume for you, hand off and it goes right back to the volume you had it and noise canceling on. The app works like a dream. Only complaint is it's slow for the app to recognize the headphones are on, but could be my phone or my lack of patience lol Worth the price when on sale

World Class Audio Quality and Noise Cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound quality and noise canceling feature is absolutely fantastic! Has nice features to integrate with apps on your mobile devices to adjust the headphone settings, including acoustical options. Very comfortable to wear for extended periods. Love this color of blue. I have not tried all of its competitors out, but multiple reviews rate these the best noise cancelling headphones in the world (compared to any brand and price point). Love them!

||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m not a headphone enthusiast by any means, but these headphones have been well worth the purchase to me! I mainly use them at school, and the noise cancelling feature is great when I really need to focus on an assignment. The equalizer feature on the companion app is nice because you can adjust the sound exactly as you like it. It might be better to wait until they’re on sale if you’re on the fence about getting them, but I personally love and recommend them!!!

Excellent Sound Quality and Noise Cancellation
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I almost didn't buy these- but I am glad I did. The sound quality is superb, especially for the price. The model is already a couple of years old but abosutely worth it. I honestly forget to charge it because the battery life is that good. My main driver during flights, long or short.

Great Headphones, thankful for customization
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are fantastic headphones. The best sounding wireless Bluetooth headphones I have personally ever used. The sound quality is extremely detailed and enhances the overall listening experience. Applicable whether you are listening to compressed music files or even more so demonstrates attention to detail with less compressed, higher quality music files, such as on Tidal or Apple Music. The immersive capability with 360 degree sound and/or Dolby atmos is incredible. I hadn’t listed to roses by the chain smokers in years due to saturation/overexposure, and I listened to its 360 version thru Tidal and it sounded like a whole new experience with the nostalgia of first discovering the song. The noise cancellation is truly impeccable - you quite literally hear nothing outside your own world it creates. The ambient noise feature is quite definitive while listening to music, podcasts, etc. layering it on top of what’s going on around you - helpful in for when you’re in the office. The headphones app is absolutely necessary in my opinion as you can customize characteristics and more importantly disable any features that aren’t to your liking. Personally, voice to chat; ambient sound control; among a few others come to mind which I deactivated. They would interrupt or fluctuate the listening process. The ambient sound control seemed interesting from a conceptual standpoint, but it really tries too hard in my opinion. Scaling between full ambient sound and noise cancellation - now the scale is great, the mind of its own - take a lap buddy, you're not that guy.

Amazing
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the most comfortable headphones I’ve worn. The noise cancellation is perfect for drowning all sound. I love wearing them to listen to instrumental music while I work, and after having them on for several hours I could still say I barely feel them on.
