Nearly Perfect Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I went back and forth between these and the XM5's and these are so much more comfortable. The only downside to these vs say the Bose QuietComfort headphones is that there isn't a dedicated button to enable bluetooth pairing. You have to turn them off and back on again to enter pairing mode, it's a very weird setup.

Posted .Hi redmondson8,
Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the WH1000XM4. We're thrilled that you like the comfort of the headphones. Your feedback about the Bluetooth pairing function is greatly appreciated.
When you pair the headset with a device for the first time after you bought it or after you initialized the headset (the headset has no pairing information), the headset enters pairing mode automatically. When you pair a second or subsequent device (the headset has pairing information for other devices), press and hold the (power) button for about 7 seconds. Check that the indicator (blue) repeatedly flashes twice in a row. You will hear the voice guidance say, “Bluetooth pairing”. You may find this link helpful:

Great sound, great noise cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these for my wife for Christmas because I knew the active noise cancellation was really good. The separation that you can hear between the instruments is pretty impressive for the money. I would recommend.

Excellent Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed a last minute pair for a vacation and these were outstanding! The noise canceling feature is amazing!! Had a small child wailing behind us on a flight to LA. Put these on….peace and quiet! The music is rich and has concert quality sound. Sony has the best over the ear headphones imho! If you want peace and quiet, these are the headphones for you! Music is the bonus!!!!

Posted .Thank you for your fantastic review, toastmalone!
We are thrilled to hear that you consider the WH-1000XM4 the best pair of headphones you’ve ever owned! That is high praise, and we are so pleased they are delivering a superb listening experience.
We also appreciate your insightful feedback on studio quality. You are absolutely correct—for the flat, uncolored frequency response required for professional sound engineering, a dedicated wired monitor headphone is always the best choice.
Thank you again for choosing Sony!

Great Noise Cancelling Headphones at high price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good sound quality, battery life, and features but the earpads are a tight fit and the ears can get warm after a few hours of wearing them. Amazing noise cancellation though.
