Super happy
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphones sound excellent, are feature rich and have a stylish case. The only issue I have had is that sometimes they jump to 100 percent volume when powering on and pairing with my phone. Tech support showed me how to reset the headphones but the issue creeps back in every once and a while. I’m sure they will address it in a firmware update. Other than that I am super impressed with both the sound and build quality.

Great Noise Cancelling Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After reading reviews I decided to purchase these headphones. Noise cancelling is the main reason I purchased these. I have a neighbor who has a stereo with a thumping bass that was penetrating the walls. I got these headphones and most of the noise was gone. Because these are bluetooth enabled I was able to have some calming music to help me sleep and that drowned out all of the noise. The sound itself is really good, too!

Great Quality Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sony WH-1000XM4 were my first pair of wireless headphones and they are amazing! The sound and build quality is incredible! The carrying case is also a nice bonus! Also, you can really customize and get a variety of Sound EQs on the Sony App - which is cool - Overall, these are a great pair of headphones and I would definitely recommend to a friend! No complaints and the noice cancellation really works.

Practical and stylish
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nothing beats these in value or style. Noise canceling is great, surround sounds makes me feel like I’m at the movies, and they make me look cool. Only feature I don’t like is the speak-to-chat. I’ve disabled it multiple times but, since my family likes to steal my headphones, it keeps reactivating. They’re easy to carry and work even better using the analog aux cable.

Worth it
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very great sound quality. First nice pair of headphones I've owned, so i can't compare, but the noise canceling works really well. Sometimes the sides of my head hurt if i wear them and my glasses all day.

Perfect ANC
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I did weeks of research looking to replace my 7+ year ANC headphones. These were generally reviewed as the best out there. I am glad to report those reviews were right. Color is fantastic and the NC is ironclad. It's changes based on what you are doing and that is very useful. Swipe motion for skipping and volume control is effective and engaging. Loved these so much that I got my girlfriend a pair too. She loves them!

Excellent Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed a last minute pair for a vacation and these were outstanding! The noise canceling feature is amazing!! Had a small child wailing behind us on a flight to LA. Put these on….peace and quiet! The music is rich and has concert quality sound. Sony has the best over the ear headphones imho! If you want peace and quiet, these are the headphones for you! Music is the bonus!!!!

A little overkill, but great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love great sounding music and am a bear for over the ear headphones most of the time. I honestly thought that I would use these more as I listen to a lot of classical music and jazz at home and am extremely picky about quality and depth of tone. These hit all those marks and then some. I think the only reason I do not use them more is because I do not carry a backpack whenever I leave the house so I am not likely to carry them around with me.
