Very satisfied with purchase
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound. Very sturdy. Affordable for the brand name. The design is simple and adore the color of our purchase. Not disappointed at all. Very comfortable to wear but depending on the duration, it can get uncomfortable. One improvement is to improve the cleaning aspect.

Excellent noise canceling headset
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are very good. The build quality is sturdy, but very lightweight. Battery lasts a long time, at least 15 hours on a charge. I really like the companion app which allows you to personalize and fine tune the noise cancellation/ pass-through audio settings.

Good headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I found these headphones to be very comfortable. They work as advertised. The volume control on the right earcup needs a little work but they are quite satisfying. I would recommend them over the apple iPods max as the max is much heavier. The app works very well. Noise canceling is very good.

XM4’s are awesome!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these headphones. The sound it great. I had to use the eq to clear up a few things, and the app was kinda buggy until recently. Overall great value, and you will not be disappointed. I miss some of the functionality because I have an iPhone, but overall I’m happy with them. They do get warm around the ears after about an hour or so for me, but I have yet to find a super comfortable over the ear headphone. Don’t like the touch controls, or the custom button.

Super comfortable & top of the line ANC
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was considering getting the cheaper version of Sony's ANC headphones but after trying side-by-side, really there is no comparison. If you want a pair of headphones you can wear comfortably for hours and have some of the best noise cancellation, these really are the top of the line.

Best at the price point!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones, bought these and the new Beats Studio pro and immediately returned the Beats. Super comfortable, no ear fatigue. Sound is great! Only thing keeping this from 5 stars is they fit a little too loose for certain gym movements.

Nicest over ear headphones for the money
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony has released new versions of the XM series headphones and they ARE better. But for the price difference these headphones are still GREAT. Solid consideration for anyone looking for a nice pair of headphones. Great for travel because of its battery life and the noise cancelling. I have bought multiple pairs as gifts for friends and family and have heard nothing but good things.

Excellent wireless noise cancelling headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent headphones with a lot of functions and setups for active noise cancelling. It also learns your location where to activate/switch to noise cancelling etc. Sound is Good+, not the best but again I don't listen to music really out loud. Excellent design and durability.

The perfect headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphone quality is amazing and there are so many options and settings available on the app. The UI on the app is very easy to use as well making it quick to switch modes. I work in a factory where we can listen to music and these headphones are always on me and they help so that I don’t have to hear all the loud noise around me with the noise cancelling mode. Great product!! My brother put me onto these headphones:)

Good value and quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable to wear and do an excellent job of cancelling external sound. These work particularly well when one is playing music. And the quality of the speakers is very good. But just in case you think that these will cancel noise effectively without playing music - like if you want to do homework or something else and just block out noise - don't, because that won't happen. All in all, a great set of earphones though, and good value for the money.

Great build quality/sound, meh touch controls
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Phenomenal build quality, great sound. The swipe controls on the side of the headphone arent my favorite. I miss physical buttons. In the pursuit of sleek build design, everything has become touch-based but its a big finnicky. Dont have to use them if you dont want to. Overall love these headphones.

We certainly appreciate your candid feedback regarding the swipe controls versus physical buttons.

Great product
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones. They have probably the best noise canceling you’ll ever have. Great speaker quality they are amazing. I’ve had the previous generation and they’re all so just as great. Only thing I kinda don’t like is the sensor other than that it’s amazing I love. It’s also really comfortable.

Good Sound Quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the Sony XM4 mainly for traveling and studying, but I was blown away by the sound quality. The bass is deep and rich without being too overpowering, the mids are clean, and the highs are crisp. Whether I’m listening to pop, EDM, or acoustic tracks, everything sounds balanced and immersive. You can really hear the details, especially when using LDAC with high-res audio. The noise cancellation also helps enhance the sound experience by cutting out distractions. Definitely one of the best-sounding wireless headphones I’ve ever used.

Another great product from Sony
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My favorite headphones, yet I will say that the touch controls are a bit finnicky at times, so I have them disabled. Other than this minor point, the sound quality and the noise-canceling are rivaled by few. The color is also a nice matte finish that is neutral enough to not stand out. These come with a carrying case and pack down well enough to travel with. I recommend wearing them around your neck though!
