Amazing headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are spectacular, I personally have a small head so finding headphones that don’t fall off is tough. With these I can go on runs or do any errand around the house or wherever and don’t have to worry about them falling off. I highly recommend plus the audio is amazing

Super light and comfortable
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The most important plus for me is that these headphones are super comfortable. Some people say it is all plastic and not as premium as some other offers on the market, but it makes them very light and extremely comfortable for longer wear. The sound is great as well. Ideal headphones for WFH

Excellent
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones. At the time of purchase I could have bought the XM5's but still chose the MX4. The MX5's felt better on my head but I think I was hearing better bass in the MX4's and I'm more into the bass side. I just liked the sound from the 4's better than the 5's and I have the 100 Daily Listener Badge too that the app tracks.

Best Headphones I've ever bought!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable, I work from home and wear these for up to 5 hours straight without them getting uncomfortable. I take video meetings and people can hear me clearly. The sound cancelling function works very well. And the battery life is amazing. I can use them all day for 4 days before the battery dies.

Ah Quiet From the Father-In-Laws room
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My father-in-law is staying with us and is a bit hard at hearing, so we got these headphones for him. We have them paired with an AppleTV and they work great. Take them off and it pauses the TV for him as well. The sound automatically goes to the headphones when they are turned on, returns to the TV when you turn them off.

Best NC headset I have ever used

Sony Wireless Headphones - Noise Cancelling
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent sound quality with superior noise cancellation abilities. Neat feature to "mute" the noise cancelling with just the touch of the outer headphone, makes communication with other individuals in the room very easy. Battery duration is excellent and super comfortable to wear for extended periods of time.

Best headphones you can buy
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been a longtime Bose fan, and own a pair of QC35 and NC700s. I believe that the Sony XM4 are superior in sound quality and noise canceling. They are lightweight and comfortable to wear for long periods, and I find that they provide a fuller sound for all content.

Sony-WH1000XM4
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At the time when I purchased these I was beginning to get tired of earbuds and wanted to try something different. When I bought these it was like a whole new world of music was unearthed to me. Definitely a worthy purchase as it completely changes the way music sounds. The audio quality and noise suppression plus the comfortable fit makes these a top choice.

Gets the job done
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are pretty good quality headphones. The one issue I have found is that the touch controls on the right headphone are not very responsive, and sometimes take 2 to 3 times to pause the music. The sound quality is good and they are light on my head. I also like that the storage case is compact as can be, and carries the essentials.
