Essential for work from home
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's pretty easy to become distracted when you work from home and have others making noise around you. The XM4s were worth every penny solely for the excellent noise canceling. TV on in the other room? No worries. Someone's talking on the phone? No problem. They won't block every noise, but if your music is on, odds are that's all you'll hear. As for the sound quality, these will sound phenomenal to anyone who isn't an audiophile. No issues there. I haven't found much use for all the extra features the headphones have - why do I need Google Assistant if my phone is always with me anyway? The autodetection of movement/activty is also more of an annoyance, I've found it much better to use the physical button to switch ANC on or off. Perhaps it would be better if you were on the move often. All around, excellent headphones and worth the investment if you work from home.

The perfect headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphone quality is amazing and there are so many options and settings available on the app. The UI on the app is very easy to use as well making it quick to switch modes. I work in a factory where we can listen to music and these headphones are always on me and they help so that I don’t have to hear all the loud noise around me with the noise cancelling mode. Great product!! My brother put me onto these headphones:)

Just wow
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m sure you’ve heard how well the headphones are already so I’m gonna keep it short: Save up for it if you can, do 4 installment payment method, something! These headphones are so worth it! I’m a noise canceling QUEEN and these headphones deliver one of the best sounds I’ve ever had. With Apple airpod max you might get great sound as well but one thing about apple accessories is that they don’t last long. These Sonys will literally last you forever and the app literally allows you to customize your liking on how you want your audio and the clearity mode makes you hear everything it’s quite amazing.
