Fantastic!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After looking at a lot of reviews I chose these over ear headphones for an 11 hour flight. They were extremely comfortable and made the long, cramped, economy class trip less stressful.

Ultimate headphones for commuters.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are extremely immersive. The modular equalizer allows you to adapt the sound to your liking and to the specific music you’re listening to. One feature I wish was available to me is the ability to name a specific equalizer subset instead of just having the default name of “custom 1” in the Sony Headphones app. Aside from that, these headphones are both superb in quality and in their aesthetic. Truly a beautiful piece of tech both in and out.

WH-1000XM4
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality is good. Noise cancelling is good. Bass is definitely there but would not recommend if you are a basshead and looking specifically for bass. The feature to connect to 2 devices at once (a phone and laptop for example) works very well. I can get a call, end the call, then automatically switch back to my laptop.

Chuffed to bits
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Chuffed to bits with the headphones. First over the ear headphones I've extensively used. Use them at the gym no problem. Use them while mowing no problem. Used at the office for some quiet time excellent. Used while gaming, the two connected devices comes in clutch for this.

You can hear everything or nothing.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best noise cancellation I’ve ever encountered. To the point where you take off the headphones and you can make believe you have super-hearing for a few seconds. Also you can allow the ambient noise in or even amplify it. Got bored on the plane the other day and decided to turn up the voice ambience and heard all about some dude’s infidelity. Guess he thought nobody would be able to hear over the engine sound but apparently he hasn’t tried these headphones. Sound quality is also amazing. Hearing parts of my favorite songs I’ve never heard before. Great at balancing two different inputs. There is some audio lag/sync issues on my Nintendo switch.

Posted .Hi baronspeerzy, Thank you for this amazing review! We're very happy to hear you like the industry-leading noise cancelling feature, ambient mode. and excellent sound quality of your new Sony headphones. Note: Playback of audio/music on the BLUETOOTH device is delayed compared to that on the main unit due to the characteristics of BLUETOOTH wireless technology.
Tip: If your handheld console, TV, etc., has a function that adjusts the delay between the picture and sound, use it for adjustment. For details, refer to the operating instructions of the device.
You can also connect the headphones to your device via headphone cable to eliminate the audio delay.
