Great Headset!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headset! Was hesitant at first as I don't have over the ear headphones. Mine generally been in ear. It did hurt my ear on first use, but has since gone away now that I have adjusted the headset. Able to wear it several hours with no issue. It is comfortable. Great noise cancellation. Purchased this for long travel and to reduce noise. Sounds just as good.

||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They’re really comfortable in the gym, but of course I would wish the volume could go louder, but for the prize and for how thorough they are, they are really good.

hearing impaired.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got these because I am hard of hearing I have a Beats pair but they are hard to understand soft talking especially while sound effects are going . These are a little better, and I'll take what I can get. Great sound, and really good noise cancelling. fits very nicely If only I could stop the music while listening!

Great product
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They cancel sound great, or at least softens loud noises, good sound quantity, they are really comfortable and I love the color. If you take them off it pauses what you are listening to and resumes when you put them back on. The only annoying feature is if I say something or clear my throat it pauses, but resumes about 20 seconds later on its own. All in all 5 stars.

Luxury headphone
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best headphone i got in years. The sound is awesome, the low, the mid and the highs. You hear the bass too. Best part.. clarity. Also, it silenced all the unnecessary sounds around you so you can listen to what you want to listen in luxury.

10/10
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the xm4 I had the bose but they did not feel as good of a quality as these. the noise cancellation was a bit iffy however I could over look it as I live in a very busy overcrowded city and so I cut the headphones some slack!

Awesome, but too big
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound on these as well as comfort is 10/10, so great. However, I tend to have a big head, seriously, and these are still too loose even on the tightest setting. So I cannot wear them out and about to to do much movement which hugely takes away from why I bought them.

Sony WH-1000XM4 Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I work with running diesel engines on a daily basis, anyone with a tractor can tell you how loud those things can get. Brought my headphones with me to work to see if I could use them in place of my Peltor workman earmuffs, turns out XM4’s have better noise canceling. There are a few annoying features. The app is very Sony, so half the features don’t work and the other half only work some of the time. The touchscreen on the outside of the right muff was cool when I first got them, now it’s just annoying, often increasing/decreasing volume when I want to skip a song. Speak-to-chat is also just a ridiculous feature, can’t use it in public, constantly activates when I’m laying in bed, turns itself back on randomly. It’s classic Sony, awesome tech, miserable software.

Just as good as Bose
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I also have the Bose QC-35 and the Sony is just as good and even better on some features. I like the way it fits and looks. The only thing I like better on the Bose is that when I first turn it on it tells you which device it is connecting to. The Sony doesn’t. Also, I find the Bose easier to connect to a new device. Besides that, I’m very happy with the Sony.

Phenomenal Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A must buy if you do a lot of travel or listen to music a lot. The noise canceling on these are phenomenonal. I saw window seat on a Boeing-787 within view of the wing. Enabled Noise Canceling. Did not hear a decibal of that aircrafts engine at all. These are very comfortable as well, I havent experienced ear-fatique

Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall, this is a great product. I love the ability to be able to simultaneously connect with two bluetooth devices without having to disconnect from one of them. The sound quality, and noise cancelling is superb. There are more features than I really use, but these headphones are exceptionally capable, and easy to use. I don't think they're quite as comfortable as the prior generation (which I also use), the cushion around the ear isn't quite as soft... but some people may like it a little more firm. But that doesn't mean that they're uncomfortable, just not quite a cozy as the XM3. For the money, they're great.
