Nearly Perfect Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I went back and forth between these and the XM5's and these are so much more comfortable. The only downside to these vs say the Bose QuietComfort headphones is that there isn't a dedicated button to enable bluetooth pairing. You have to turn them off and back on again to enter pairing mode, it's a very weird setup.

Posted .Hi redmondson8,
Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the WH1000XM4. We're thrilled that you like the comfort of the headphones. Your feedback about the Bluetooth pairing function is greatly appreciated.
When you pair the headset with a device for the first time after you bought it or after you initialized the headset (the headset has no pairing information), the headset enters pairing mode automatically. When you pair a second or subsequent device (the headset has pairing information for other devices), press and hold the (power) button for about 7 seconds. Check that the indicator (blue) repeatedly flashes twice in a row. You will hear the voice guidance say, “Bluetooth pairing”. You may find this link helpful:

Great Noise Cancelling Headphones at high price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good sound quality, battery life, and features but the earpads are a tight fit and the ears can get warm after a few hours of wearing them. Amazing noise cancellation though.

Amazing Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are one of the best iv heard. The noise isolation is top notch and the sound quality is superb. If you have the chance give the 360 audio and listen, it's a a game changer. At least to me it is. Takes music to a new level. Totally transforms the way music is heard. Build quality is very good but for the price I feel they should of went with a more premium material. But overall. Love it.

Great ANC headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones are a great set of headphone. These headphones are good for listening to music when doing chores around the house or just sitting back and relaxing. For me the best feature is the ability to pause when the headphones are removed. They are excellent at blocking outside sound and sound great for music or podcasts. Their only weakest is phone calls, not as clear as when listening to music.

Great sound, great noise cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these for my wife for Christmas because I knew the active noise cancellation was really good. The separation that you can hear between the instruments is pretty impressive for the money. I would recommend.

Speechless!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So glad I went through with purchasing these! I hesitated for a while because of the price. But when they were on sale, I jumped on it. I wish Spotify supported the 360 Reality Audio because I don't bother with 3rd party music apps I have not heard of. Regardless of that, the sound and features of these headphones is worth it to me. You get what you pay for!
