Sony wireless headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound quality, and by far the best noise canceling headphones ive ever used will never regret the purchase for those features alone. Very comfortable and lightweight for when you need to wear them for long period of time.

Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones. Before I decided on these, I picked up Bose NC700, and I prefer these over the Bose. I find them more comfortable than the Bose, and they sure sound better to my ears. Highly recommended, especially if you find them at a discount.

Wow!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent sound quality. Sleek design. Noise cancelling is exceptional. Sometimes I wish there were buttons on the back of the ear instead of touch response on the headphone itself but overall very happy with purchase.

Amazing Sound Quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am no longer able to use in ear headphones so I needed over ear. Although the price had me hesitant, these headphones are definitely worth the money. The sound quality is amazing, they fit great and it took over an hour before sweat became noticeable.

Great ANC with bassy sound.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A little bit too much bass I think. Makes some music sound a little muddy. Can probably fix this in EQ, but these were really comfortable and the ANC is really good. Recently got these for a 15 hr flight and they worked well.

XM4s are whatever
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far, after having these headphones for a while, I think they're all right. I bought them because I was going on a big trip, and on the plane, they held up pretty good and were nice to have. However, I also brought my AirPods to see the difference, and to be honest, it wasn't that much of a difference that 300 dollars is buying you. These headphones sound great, and that's pretty much all they offer: good-sounding wireless headphones. However, I can't say it's worth the $ 300 price tag. I'd say if you're looking for good quality headphones,s they're other options better for your pocket to,o and If you already own noise canceling wireless headphones like AirPods Pro 2nd gen or of the same generation, I'd say just stick with as these headphones are really that much of an incentive to buy them they're also from 2016

ANC, PNC, fit/comfortability, Design, Quality.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.To begin with, this is a review for the average user. I have Skullcandy venue and AirPods Pro, each totaling appx. $130 & $250 respectively, so this is the comparison. The Skullcandy headphones were good, but they didnt make me say "wow". Average sound, ANC worked, though not well. I discovered that an ice bagging machine is a good test, considering it is very loud, but not machine shop loud. With the SC I could hear the ice dropping out of the machine even at maximum volume. The AirPods Pro, however, mask the sound completely and without using max volume, same as these sony WH. They slip around the head, but that may be because I have a smaller one, and the touch controls are a pain sometimes but the sound quality is miles ahead of any Skullcandy, and a fair amount better than the AirPod pro. The mic really sucks though.

Posted .Hi Sett,
You made the right choice with the Sony WH1000XM4 headphones! We're glad that you like its sound quality. The WH-1000XM4 is a new design, with intelligent and intuitive Ambient Sound Control features that include improvements to Multipoint connection and our industry-leading Noise Cancelation, exceptional sound quality, and Smart Listening that adjusts to your behavior and location
Your feedback about fit, touch controls, and the mic quality is greatly appreciated. Make sure to adjust the headband for optimum fit and comfort.
For the best overall performance, it is recommended to install the latest software version (via the Sony Headphones Connect app).
The sensor of the touch sensor control panel is built into the flat surface of the right unit. Operate within the range of the sensor. When you swipe your finger forward/backward or up/down on the touch sensor control panel, the touch sensor control panel may not work correctly depending on the angle at which the headset is worn or the direction your head is facing:
a. When you swipe your finger forward/backward, make the movements perpendicular to the headband.
b. When you swipe your finger up/down, make the movements parallel to the headband.
To improve call quality, re-establish the connection between the source device and the headset. Select HFP or HSP for the profile.
Sony takes all feedback seriously. Rest assured that this will help us improve our products.
Hope these steps improve your experience. Thanks for sharing your review and for choosing Sony
