Great sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the best headphones I have ever used. I have an old version of Sony noise-cancelling headphones and was very please with their performance. But THESE are way better. The size, the quality, the way they hug your ears (you tend to forget you are wearing them) is awesome. I truly recommend them. The sound quality is beyond perfect.

WH-1000XM4 Review
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Impeccable quality. I was hearing musical textures in songs I've listened to for years for the first time. The only negative thing I have to say about it is how sensitive the touch pad is. I'm always accidently hanging up.

Posted .Hi User144668,
We feel privileged to know that our headphones have allowed you to rediscover your favorite songs by revealing musical textures you hadn't noticed before. We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding the sensitivity of the touch sensor; if you find it a bit too reactive for your style, you can actually disable the "Touch Sensor Control Panel" within the Sony Headphones Connect app to prevent those accidental hang-ups.
Thank you for trusting Sony and making us a part of your daily listening.
Regards,
Dominick

Solid pair of headphones!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones for the reduced price. Audio quality is solid and the Bluetooth has been very handy while traveling. Took a little time to get used to compared to open ear. Battery life is a little less than expected with certain settings enabled.

Posted .Thank you for sharing your detailed review, TobinD!
We are pleased to hear that you found the WH-1000XM4 headphones to be a great value at the reduced price and that you are enjoying the solid audio quality and very handy Bluetooth feature while traveling.
We understand that switching from open-ear headphones requires a slight adjustment, and we appreciate you giving yourself time to get used to the sealed fit. We also acknowledge your feedback regarding the battery life being a little less than expected when certain features (like full ANC or certain codecs) are enabled; performance can vary based on usage settings.
We are glad the XM4s are serving you well on the go!
Thank you for choosing Sony!
