Great performance, not as comfortable as I'd like.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've tried a lot of headsets in my day. I used the Bose headsets for a long time, it was not too bad. The Bose headset lasted a long time, but they new Sony ones are way better in terms of performance. Why not give it 5 stars. For one the ear holes are small for my ears and the noise-cancelling could be better. The sound is awesome, but for long flights your ears will hurt a bit and the you will still hear people snoring next to you.

Posted .Hi JDiaz, Thanks for sharing your experience with us. While we're glad you are happy with the sound quality, we're quite sad that you are not fully impressed with the noise-canceling feature. With the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app, check the setting of [Ambient Sound Control]. If it is set to [Wind Noise Reduction] or [Ambient Sound], the effect of noise canceling is reduced. Set it to the noise canceling mode. Please check this link for more details:

Sony - WH1000SM4
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Previously purchased Sony - WH1000XM3 for work and airplane traveling which worked well. Recent purchase of Sony - WH1000XM4 is a nice upgrade. When the new headphones are on noise cancelling is impressive I barely hear surrounding environment. Audio is crisp and dynamic even when conversations are happening around me.

Worth It
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I previously had the 3rd model and decided to buy this one to replace my temporarily JBL Project Rock headphones. It's literally almost the same as the 3rd version with some adjustments made to it. Such adjustment would be the headphone would pause when you start to talk instead of putting your hands over the earcups. It'll also turn off when not in use for a certain amount of time. I would probably hold off buying the lateat version, if you're tight on money.

Great headphones, stellar noise cancellation.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones sound great and the sound-cancelling is incredible. I forgot to bring these on a flight and definitely missed them. They are also great for an office environment, if you need to focus and get work done. The microphones are okay for the type of device, but certainly don't replace a headset with a proper microphone arm.

I recommend getting them
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Over a year later and all i have to complain about is that i cant replace the earmuffs because itll cost me around 100 dollars to keep noice canceling. They became pretty flat around 3 months after i git them, but i wore them like 24/7. I dont regret getting them though. I sometimes go all week without having to charge them.
