Differencemaker.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Came from the AirPods Pro over to these and not looking back. Amazing quality and robust features - still finding more. The Midnight Blue color is sick. Only drawback is that your ears and head will need a break after a few hours.

But sometimes when multiple devices are connected it has a tough time to recognize from where the music is being queued. Noise cancelling is amazing.

5/5 Star Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really enjoy the soundproof audio. Even in the loudest settings, the soundproof does its job of minimizing the amount of noise I can hear. The headphones are also very comfortable. I had issues in the past where headphones would hurt my ears, so I could not wear them for a long period of time. However, these are extremely comfortable to the point where I can sleep just fine in them. They are easy to pair with devices and come with easy-to-follow instructions on how to set them up.

Best headphones on the market
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was between these and the Bose 700 and these definitely take the cake. Noise canceling is amazing and the on ear detection is great. Tons of little things as well such as auto turn off whenever you put them in the case or if they are off of your ears for 15 minutes.

Posted .Hi Bph1209, you definitely made the right choice with these headphones. Sony’s industry-leading noise cancellation evolves to further immerse you in your music. The addition of Sony’s proprietary HD Noise Canceling Processor QN1 masterfully eliminates the noise around you. Listen all day with up to 30 hours of battery life. Quick charging gives five hours of playback with just a 10-minute charge.
To get the most out of your WH-1000XM4, download the Sony | Headphones Connect App. It includes Adaptive Sound Control—which automatically adjusts noise canceling based on your activity and an equalizer—which can be customized to fine-tune your music. Using our advanced noise canceling technology, we designed these headphones so you can block out noise and experience next-level silence. Plus, you have the ability to use the convenient smart features including Quick Attention, Google Assistant/Alexa/Siri compatibility, and touch controls. Thanks for choosing Sony.

Good iteration, Not Worth Upgrading Unless needed
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Coming from the previous iteration. These are marginally improved. If you have the 3s keep those, if your 3s finally started to break down get these. If your 3s are still good, keep them and get these when/if they ever falter.

Great headphones

Sound quality is incredibly crisp and noise-cancelling is amazing. If you're still over the fence whether to buy this or not, at a $200+ price point (when on sale), it's a must-buy.

Great cans
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Simply the best noise cancelling headphones out there. I like the bronze touches on the black ones a little more, but the blue is a nice change from the seas of black, not so light that it’ll show wear and not a garish color.
