Big bang for your buck
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I want to give these 5 stars, but they don't connect to certain apps reliably (Slack, Zoom, and TikTok frequently have problems). Otherwise the sound is amazing as it the noise cancelling feature. Very comfortable, as well.

Sony Xm4 noise canceling
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are good headphones, music quality is good and the ability to pair to 2 devices and seamlessly switch between them. The noise canceling is the best from my experience. You can still hear things around you unless you have music playing, which for studying in a cafe isn't great if you dont like to study with music.

A trump can Interrupt your listening.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Superb headphones that enhance audio quality to amazing levels. Watching a movie in these things is a delight. My one peeve is they are super sensitive to external noise, meaning they will automatically pause and shut off if you so much as cough, sneeze or say hi to your pet. I farted watching Top Gun and it paused the whole movie.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these headphones! They noise cancel quite well, and of course, the quality is great. my only issues are that they fall off my head if i move back too much sometimes (but that might be because i have a small head lol) and they do leak noise at a certain volume. other than these minor issues, they’re great!!

A great buy
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Beats my old Bose QTs. Wow can I just say I’m no expert but these are amazing. My teenage son did research for me and said “get these”. The NC feature is amazing. Sound is amazing these are amazing! With the $70 price drop makes these a win-win! The only issue I had was using in vehicle as a passenger could regulate wind noise so I had to shut off NC. so far my only issue but this would be the case with any true NC headphones per my son. Wind noise and NC are perfectly fine outside of a vehicle

Posted .Hi PrincessYodaGroot, You've made an excellent choice! We're very pleased to hear that you've listened to your son in purchasing the WH1000XM4. If the noise-canceling function or ambient sound mode is turned on, the ambient environment may increase the wind noise. If the wind noise is still loud, turn off the noise-canceling function and ambient sound mode.
