    This is the best sounding wireless (some wired headphones do sound better) but the advantage of connecting to two different devices and seamlessly switching from one to the other it’s great. Quality seems to be very high as well. Also some of the best noise canceling I’ve had.

    Love the sound cancelling! Totally masks noisy appliances and random household noise. I selected this product on the advice of a Geek Squad guy at the Dublin store. Trustworthy advice. Thanks Man! I chose sound quality over heavy bass sound quality of a similar model.

    It is amazing. I have gone out of my way to use my headphones throughout the day just so I can sit back and enjoy how immersive the headphones are. Once the wife sees them on me there’s no chance any words she’s speaking to me will get thru! she’s completely blocked out. A plus!

      Hi Javier,
      Many thanks for the 5-star rating! We're glad to hear you like the superb sound and noise canceling features of your WH1000XM4 headphones. Bluetooth communications may be disabled, or noise or audio dropout may occur under the following conditions:
      When there is a human body between the headset and the Bluetooth device
      In this case, put the Bluetooth device in the same direction as the antenna of the headset to improve the Bluetooth communications.
      When there is an obstacle, such as metal or a wall, between the headset and the Bluetooth device
      In places with wireless LAN, where a microwave oven is used, electromagnetic waves are generated, etc.
      Where there are other wireless communication audio devices or other people nearby, such as in train station premises or on a crowded train.
      For reference: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm4/v1/en/contents/TP0002752755.html

      Sony values customers opinion as we always strive to provide the best experience possible. Thanks again for purchasing Sony! - Kris Sony_US

    Although I enjoy the headphones quite a bit, there are some underlying issues. Connectivity is one of these issues. There’s a feature on the headphones where after a certain amount of time, the headphones turn off. Whenever I turn them back on, they work fine for a bit before suddenly disconnecting. This continues to happen until I either forget the headphones or I reset my phone.

      Hi BeaverCrawl,

      We regret to hear that the headphones are not working properly. For optimum performance, make sure that the software version of the headphones is updated (via the Sony Headphones Connect app). Resetting and initializing the headphones may also help resolve those issues. Please refer to these links:
