Great improvement over previous model
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great step up from the previous model. The tweaks to the head band and ear muffin really improve comfort. The sound quality has also improved. Bluetooth compatibility has improved for me too. Great improvements to an already great product.

Amazing!!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have used these headphones for a few weeks now and they're great. I had the Bose QC45 but decided to return those, as the XM4s were just better. They have more rich sound and more features. They also make the QC45 feel cheap in comparison. The only con is that the noise cancellation isn't as good as on the Bose. I also tried the XM5s recently and found that these sound better (and these fold inwards and have a nice case, the XM5s do not). To conclude, best purchase I've made in a while. I hope they'll last long.

Best headphones I’ve ever tried out!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these as a gift for my mother as she does her bible studies online. I just wanna say all the hype behind the noise-canceling on these headphones is legit. As soon as you put them on, almost everything goes completely quiet. I reminds me of those hearing test headphones that do those low tone beeps lol, its that good! Oh, and they sound really good too and have a nice build quality!

Great pair of headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great pair of headphones. Long battery life. I would charge them every 2 days or a bit less. Comes with a durable travel case and Usb-C cable. Sturdy and durable design for the headphones. Apps works great but could use a few updates.

Posted .Hi JaimeR,
Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the WH1000XM4. We're glad that you like the sound quality and comfort of the headphones. Your feedback about the design is greatly appreciated. While the WH1000XM4 headphones don’t have an IPX rating, simple workout routines like walking shouldn’t be of concern. If you sweat a lot or for more serious workouts, you may want to consider the WF-C500, WF-1000XM4, or WF-1000XM5.
Thank you for choosing Sony!

MUST HAVE
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Tried 3 of the most popular headphones to find the best one. (AirPods Max, Bose 700, Sony XM4). All are great but these stand out a lot more in my opinion because of great sound and fit. Also cheapest of the 3 so W all around.

Good, not great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comfy, work well, sound good, not great. Maybe I was expecting too much. LDAC must be used on my Note 10+, sounds like mud otherwise. Problem is, using LDAC doesn't allow pairing to two devices. Otherwise, many cool features. I would recommend them when they're on sale. I like the blue color.

Sony WH 1000XM4
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These Sony headphones are fantastic so far. I got them because of the active noise cancelling, which rivals all of the current Bo$e noise cancelling and surpasses all the rest. What has really increased my experience is all the "hidden" features that are explained inside the box. Laying your palm on the side of the headphones pauses the ANC, intuitive swiping up/down on the outside earpiece for volume and forward and back for skipping, the double tap to pause, all very easy/user friendly interface that makes them a pleasure to use.

||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really can not complain for the price you don't get much better. Noise canceling is great. It works well with my phone. Battery life is awesome. I just with my phone would use the LDAC codec but that's not the headphones fault.
