    Best headphones out there. I tried the AirPod pro max, but in my opinion, these sound better. The AirPods are more comfortable, but not another $200 better. If you’re looking at both brands, get these.

    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.!!!

      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.

      If you require any additional support in regards to this product, please email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details: Name: Username: Model Number: Issue: Telephone Number:

    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.

      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.
