Best Noise Cancelling!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.New pair after the WH-CH700N. Noise Cancelling is just too amazing, put music on and you won't hear anything else but the music. Many cool features like automatically switching to ambient sound and analyzing your ears to optimize both the noise-canceling and the sound. Midnight Blue is a cool color too, looks like the iPhone 12's Pacific Blue.

Great noise cancelling over ear head phones

Excellent sound quality and noise cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my first pair of high-end headphones and the first in a long time to have noise cancelling. Previously I had a pair of Sony MDR-XB950B1. There is really no comparing the XM4's to them. The only thing that was "better" with the 950's was the bass. But that was only if you were a fan of really fake "boomy" bass. Highly recommend these headphones.

One word: Quality
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been using these exclusively the past 11 months and they are great. Initially, I tried the AirPods Max, but they were too heavy and started to hurt my eyes. These have even better noise cancellation and I like that they can more easily fold up and fit into a bag.
