Good but pricey
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Honestly bought it because it blew up on tiktok but it's not bad. Definitely pricey but the noice cancellation works pretty well. I don't like how it sounds when I'm walking though. It's like the sound of my footsteps are heightened, and it sometimes falls off.

Posted .Hi Joyce, You've made an excellent choice! We're glad you like the industry-leading noise cancelling feature of your new Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones. If you feel like the headphones noise canceling effects are weak when you're walking, it is possible that the Adaptive Sound Control is turned on. We suggest setting the Adaptive Sound Control to Off using the Sony headphones connect app. You may find additional information about this feature on this link:
https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/wireless-headphones-bluetooth-headphones/wh-1000xm4/articles/00224945
And to ensure a comfortable and secure fit, we do recommend adjusting the left and right headband slider.
Intelligent and intuitive, the WH-1000XM4 headphones offer further improvements to our industry-leading noise cancelation, exceptional sound quality, and smart listening that adjusts to your behavior and your location. Using the Sony Headphones Connect app, Ambient Sound Control lets you adjust the volume of background sound and gives you the option to allow voices alone to be heard. Meanwhile, the Equalizer lets you customize sound levels to suit your music. Thanks for choosing Sony! -Sam

Good for music bad for calls
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best for music and i feel little uncomfortable after wearing for an hour...!! Same feeling with bose.. overall i like sony’s sound quality and extra bass compared to fake sounding bose.. bose is better for calls.. sony needs to improve a lot in call quality... people hear external noise more when i’m in calls.!!!

Posted .Hi Crk86, we're glad you like the sound quality of our product. We're sorry to hear that you have issues with your SONY unit. You may adjust the slider on the headphones to achieve desirable comfort.
Check the audio settings of the Bluetooth device to make sure the sound is output from the headset during a call. Use the Bluetooth device to re-establish the connection. Select HFP or HSP for the profile. Depending on the surrounding environment, wind noise may increase when the Ambient Sound Mode is turned on. In that case, cancel the voice focus with the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app. If the wind noise is still significant, turn off the Ambient Sound Mode.
