AMAZING headphones.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I LOVE these headphones. I use them for just about everything. The noice canceling is by FAR the best i have had. I can go walking next to traffic and not hear a single noice. I'vebeen on planes and couldn't even hear the planes taking off. If you need a pair of headphones to block out your kids or your nagging wife, these are for you. Block out the world abs just be with your intrusive thoughts with these headphones. I actively show people these headphones and have talked people to bordem about them. I try and get everyone I show them to to but a pair.

Sony = one of the best.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable. I bought my girlfriend a pair of Klipsch on-ear headphones a few years ago that she used mostly for flights. Her ears would get sore, so I decided to give my brother the Klipsch and buy her a set of these. She loves them. They sound a bit better and have noise-cancelling.

True noise canceling
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After trying on all the noise canceling wireless headphones Best Buy had on display, I have bought my 4th pair of these Sony headphones. They are just a higher quality than others, including some of their own products.

Disappointed Due to Ear Pain
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was excited to try the Sony WH-1000XM4 after hearing so many great things about its sound quality and noise cancellation. While the audio performance is definitely impressive, I’ve been experiencing consistent ear pain whenever I use the headphones. After wearing them for even a short period, my ears start to feel uncomfortable, and the pressure becomes hard to ignore. I tried adjusting the fit several times, but the discomfort remains, making it difficult to enjoy the music or wear the headphones for longer sessions. Unfortunately, despite their excellent technical features, the lack of comfort has been a major drawback for me. Overall, the Sony WH-1000XM4 may work well for many users, but if you’re sensitive to ear pressure or tight-fitting ear cups, you might face similar discomfort. I’m disappointed because I really wanted to like these headphones, but the ear pain makes it hard to recommend them.

Posted .Thank you for sharing your detailed and honest feedback, SrinivasB.
We are delighted to hear that you found the WH-1000XM4's audio performance and technical features, like the noise cancellation, to be impressive. However, we are truly sorry and concerned to learn that you are experiencing consistent ear pain and discomfort after even short periods of use. We understand that excellent features mean little if the product is painful to wear, and we sincerely apologize that the fit has been a major drawback for you despite your efforts to adjust the earcups.
Comfort is a top priority, especially for premium noise-canceling headphones designed for long listening sessions. While the headband clamping force is engineered for secure sealing, we regret that it is causing you pressure-related pain.
If you would like to explore any final comfort adjustments, our support team can offer personalized tips. Otherwise, we appreciate you bringing this specific feedback about fit sensitivity to our attention as it is invaluable for future product development.
Best regards, Gus, Sony Social Media Team

best to get on sale
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.for what you’re getting, this is in line with the more premium wireless headphones however I cannot justify the msrp. I would say wait for this pair to go on sale if you really want it. There are more cheaper options but this is one of the best wireless headphones you can get on the market.

Great sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the best headphones I have ever used. I have an old version of Sony noise-cancelling headphones and was very please with their performance. But THESE are way better. The size, the quality, the way they hug your ears (you tend to forget you are wearing them) is awesome. I truly recommend them. The sound quality is beyond perfect.

Amazing Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound. App is amazing. Only thing is that the pads get greasy a little easily but that isn't a deal breaker. The EQ is amazing once you fine tune to your liking. Also comes with 3.5mm cord as well as an airplane adapter, which is great.
