Posted .Hi JIMBOB, Great! We're happy to hear that like its new features like the automatic pause and play function when wearing and removing the headset. Sony’s industry-leading noise cancellation evolves to further immerse you in your music. The addition of Sony’s proprietary HD Noise Canceling Processor QN1 masterfully eliminates the noise around you. Listen all day with up to 30 hours of battery life. Quick charging gives five hours of playback with just a 10-minute charge.
To get the most out of your WH-1000XM4, download the Sony | Headphones Connect App. It includes Adaptive Sound Control—which automatically adjusts noise canceling based on your activity and an equalizer—which can be customized to fine-tune your music. Using our advanced noise canceling technology, we designed these headphones so you can block out noise and experience next-level silence. Plus, you have the ability to use the convenient smart features including Quick Attention, Google Assistant/Alexa/Siri compatibility, and touch controls. Thanks for choosing Sony.

Good but not great
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far these headphones have surpassed my QC35’s in terms of ANC and overall sound quality but my only gripe is the clunky headphone app to control most of the xm4’s features. Another downer is only 2 device connectivity.

Improves upton the XM3 but not a revolution
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I own a WH1000XM3 and this improves upon it without changing it completely. I had the option to go for the XM5 but I couldn't let go of the travel portability I love about the XM3 and so I went with this. I am not disappointed. The call quality on this is better but if that's not a concern, save some money and get the MX3 for a better price.
