Build, sound, and noise cancelling quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are excellent headphones. Build quality is nice. Very lightweight. The noise cancelling is really impressive. Sound quality is very good, but only if you change the EQ in the app. I recommend lowering the clear bass just one point, and raising some of the mids — refer to my screenshot. Overall, highly recommend these headphones. I still prefer by beyerdynamic dt880s if I’m in a perfectly quiet environment, but these sound almost as good, and are usable in so many more situations.

Best headphones ever.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The cancelling noise and the sound are amazing. I’m really glad I chose the Sony over anything else. For the price and performance the are the best deal out there. Pros : 30 hr charge, sound, noise cancelling, 2 device connectivity at the same time, and the app lets you customize the equalizer several ways. Cons: The usb c cord to charge them is too short. Yep. That’s it. That is the only con.

Great Buy
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is amazing, especially for the price. It has top notch premium audio and great noise canceling. The battery life is phenomenal. I’ve had it for almost a month and I’ve only had to charge it once. The only con is that it does occasionally get slightly warm to the ears after long periods of use. Overall, still a great buy and would recommend it to others.

Not for me.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Audio quality was solid overall, but not a fan of the ANC. I traded these in for some Sennheiser 560s and I’ve been enjoying those a lot more. Could see these having a place for travel but not great for daily listening imo.

Posted .Hello MichaelO,
Thank you for considering Sony products.
We regret that the Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) on the WH-1000XM4 did not fully align with your daily use preferences, despite the excellent audio quality.
Please rest assured that your feedback regarding the ANC has been carefully documented and promptly forwarded to the Sony team. Such insights are essential for driving continuous improvements.
Thank you once again for taking the time to share your experience.
Best regards,

Happy with first headphone buy
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m new to the noise cancelling headphone world but I’m impressed with my purchase! I like the transparency feature and options for noise canceling, ambient sound, or neither. They’re comfortable on my head and look good. They do slip a bit if I bend down.

Top of the line headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best gift I could ever give myself! I did a lot of research on headphones to see which one I should buy & I’m glad I went with these! The noise cancelling on these headphones are hands down the best there is & the main winner to these! Once the noise cancelling comes on, it’s like you’re in your own concert or lil world. Love that it has the feature of when you start speaking to someone it will automatically pause & uses its microphone to listen to the background so that you don’t have to waste time pausing or taking off the headphones. Not to mention the feature of cupping on to one side of the earphone & it will pause your music so you can’t listen in around you! Can’t forget it comes with a small compact carrying case to store them & all the accessories such as the charger & awesome attachment to use on an airplane! There’s many more features I’m forgetting, do the research & promise they won’t disappoint!

Sony WH-1000XM4’s
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Out the box these headphones are still amazing. Their ANC is very good for its price range and the sound quality is really great. Even though these may be a bit old they are still a very great pair of headphones. The app is perfect for making adjustments on ANC and EQ. The case is very sturdy as well. The headphones are light but comfortable, for some people the it could be to small but for average people it should work perfectly well. They also offer LDAC so you are bound to get great sound quality over Bluetooth. These headphones are perfect especially on a budget and I would recommend these.

Sony Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones so much. The spund quality is great and the noise canceling is awesome. The only thing is that I think mine are defective because when i try to swipe to change songs, sometimes it doesn't do it. The volume one works but the one to swipe left or right sometimes doesnt work. I hear the swiping sound but it doesn't do it. Other than that I think these are reall good headphones.

Posted .Hi MichelleV,
While we're happy that you are enjoying its amazing audio and excellent noise cancellation, we're sorry you've been running into difficulty. When you wear the headset over a cap, cloth, 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. Additionally, the headset will not operate correctly when you operate the headset with your fingernail or a gloved hand. Remove your glove, and operate the headset with the ball of your finger.
It is important to note that when you swipe your finger forward/backward or up/down on the touch sensor control panel, the touch sensor control panel may not work correctly depending on the angle at which the headset is worn or the direction your head is facing. When you swipe your finger forward/backward, make the movements perpendicular to the headband.
We do have good information on this link here if the touch sensor control panel does not respond correctly: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm4/v1/en/contents/TP0002758108.html

Best impulsive purchase!!!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed a new pair of headphones for the gym. I use the Sony XM4 almost everyday and I don’t need to charge them for a few days. Comparing to the other models this was a safe choice. The sound quality is amazing. For the price; the noise canceling feature is immaculate. I don’t think anything else compares.
