Not the newest, but the best?
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These XM4's are just what I needed. My XM3's are dying and the XM4's have updated Bluetooth to allow for multiple device connections. These may be two versions old, but the XM5/6's do not fold up as compactly and, as reviews point out, the headband may be slightly tighter. ANC is great and the sound is balanced.

Amazingly Amazing Sounding Headphones!!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are all they're cracked up to be on the amazing reviews online! Sony has the corner on the market with over the ear headphones in my opinion. I've had some Sony wired MDRV-6 headphones for decades and they're still making them as they're one of the most venerable pair on the market still today, running around 4 Bills to get them. These Sony-WH-1000XM4's are no slouch for Wireless Headphones! I'm truly amazed with the spatiality, accuracy, and noise-cancelling qualities of these headphones. When you add in the Sony 360 Reality recordings it's truly going to take you to a whole different level. Wanna feel like you're in the studio and looking in different directions for each musician... that's what 360 is about. Very much like a live performance. I'm using TIDAL for my online music choice after reading many reviews about different services. I'm TOTALLY happy with their quality as it never fails to amaze me with their sound and they offer the Sony 360 music too! I'm sold on these, and the only headsets that compare are my wired Sony MDRV-6's. I don't like to buy things twice as I like to get what I want the first time, and I'm very happy. You might pay a pretty penny for these, but they're worth every hard earned penny you spend!

Best noise cancelling out there
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent headphones from top to bottom. Amazing noise cancelling capabilities, which are what I care about most. Sound quality is above average and they're comfortable enough to wear almost all day. I have a small creak in my right ear cup which is a little annoying but otherwise, these things are perfect.

Great investment!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They definitely block out most if not all the outside noises. I'm happy with my purchase. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars is because they're bulky, touchy when working out, and they didn't come with at least a travel pouch. They worked perfectly for my flight. The battery life is on point.

Very good headphones
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Truly I loved these headphone. I purchased them when they came out in 2020 after watching a slew of reviews and digging deep into causal audiophile subreddits. This year I had to replace them as they stopped working :( but they were so near and dear to me for almost 6 years. I decided to upgrade to the xm6’s. Used them al most every single day all through college and at my first big girl job too.

Better made than Soundcore
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super comfortable and amazing sound quality. I used to have a pair of soundcore headphones that I used before these, but I needed a new pair since one of the headphones snapped off at work. These feel like they’re made a lot better, so even though they are expensive, they’re made nicely. I recommend them for sure!

Me likey
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the design. Love the sound quality. But if you love deep base and loud music they arent as loud as the QC 45’s. Although, they do have a cleaner sound… Overall great but definitely think about the what type of listening you’ll be doing. Also the touch remote is annoying sometimes but thats just me

The Perfect Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After over a year of use, these still look just like they did on day one. They feel sturdy but are still light enough to wear for hours without discomfort. The array of features and great battery life make these a really good value. 10/10 would recommend

Excellent, deep base; great noise cancellation
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing headphones, super deep base, excellent noise cancellation. Really happy with this purchase and I find them to be better than more expensive BOSE options. Easy to pair with my iPhone and MacBook Pro. My only suggestion would be to use slightly nicer material to make it look and feels a bit more premium.
