Even better than the mighty Bose 700
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My Bose 700 headphones were having connectivity issues so I replaced them with the Sony WH-1000XM4. In my opinion, the Sony's are just as comfortable, seem to have better sound quality (especially with bass response), and slightly better noise cancellation...though I haven't tried out the various adaptive modes. Most importantly, they maintain a stable bluetooth connection to my devices.

Sounds great w/ PlayStation 5 but...
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these to use w/ the PS5. While as of right now they will not sync up via Bluetooth they do plug in to the PS5 controller. They have an app you can put on your phone to customize the way they sound. 3D audio is amazing. You can hear an enemy’s breath. Birds in the distance. Phenomenal headphones! Maybe Sony could step up their game in the future and make these compatible for Bluetooth sync in a future PS5 update?... Hope they will anyway. The headphones are the best I’ve ever owned.

Great Premium Headset
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve used QC45s, own a pair of AirPod Maxes and have these. For the price, these are great. Sure, you can pay more for QC45’s or AirPod Max’s, but for 95% of users this would be more than satisfied with these compared to other premium noise canceling headsets. The only benefit that the QC45s hold over these is the more neutral sound out of the box. With a bit of tweaking, I got these to the same level (they came a bit too bass heavy as a default).

Good but not perfect
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm overall happy with my headphones, however there are two main things that I didn't like about them. First, the "cabin pressure" that I feel when wearing them is a noticeable thing, and when I first started wearing them it made me dizzy after about an hour. However as I used them more I got over that dizziness. Second, the earpads are a little small so my ears are always touching the inner part of the ear cup, and because of that my ears start hurting after about 30 minutes of use. It's not too bad, so I keep using them, but it still hurts and I would rather it not. Other than that they sound great and cancel out a lot of background noise. I am really happy with my purchase!

Posted .Hi Tristan, Thank you for taking the time to review the WH-1000XM4 Wireless Noise-Canceling Headphones. When you wear the headset over a cap, a scarf, hair, etc., wearing detection may not work properly, and the touch sensor control panel may not be available for operation. Wear the headset so that your ears are inside the earpads. The longer you wear headphones, the more your ears may hurt. You may need to limit your headphone usage.

New love
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My sister bought these a few months ago, and I became obsessed too! I usually buy the Apple Beats headphones, but these are so much better in every way— physically, functionally, and musically. Plus, the noise cancellation feature is absolutely OP. I got this headphone discounted and definitely worth the purchase. Only complaint is that the earmuffs are a little big, but I think it’s a small price to pay.

Excellent headphones, but at a hefty price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So these are the first premium ANC headphones Ive owned. The sound quality is exceptional. The software features are impressive. The build quality is great. I’m definitely loving the experience, whether listening to music or to videos. I have a bigger head, and these do get a little uncomfortable after about 30 minutes. Not sure if there are any other premium headphones that are more comfortable. And the high price is definitely something to consider, if cost is a factor for you.
