Posted .Hi JennaH,
Hello! We are glad to hear that you are enjoying the sound quality of your WH-1000XM4 headphones. We are sorry to hear you're experiencing some issues with the touch controls, as they can sometimes be a bit tricky to get used to.
To improve the responsiveness, make sure you are using the flat part of your finger to tap and swipe, and not just the fingertip. For the buttons, please ensure you are giving them a firm, deliberate press. If the issue continues, a quick reset of the headphones often resolves minor glitches. You can find instructions on how to do this in the Sony Headphones Connect app or our online help guide.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards,
Eliab

Well done, guys
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Thoroughly impressed with this set. I have owned numerous headsets from solid brands including Bowers and Wilkins. This set keeps up. Range on BT is there, quality of product and sound quality is there, ease of access is there, and hell - so fast to charge. This set is here to stay. Well done, Sony. Although - I did spend 1 night so frustrated as I accidentally engaged some sort of speech to chat mode while gaming and could not for the life of me figure out how and so it took a bit to figure out how to turn it off. My own fault, I guess? But, still, do not like this feature, personally.

Sony noise canceling headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good value. Noise cancellation works perfectly; I can’t hear a person speaking right next to me. The sound is good, although it has plenty of adjustments, which I haven’t fully explored, yet. I use them when working out and I find them comfortable for extended use. When on sale, they are a great buy.

Excellent

While Bose flagship has slightly better Noise Cancellation, the additional features and light weight are amazing. Cannot go wrong with them!

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are by far the best headphones that I have ever owned in terms of checking all the "boxes" for my needs. The noise cancelling is incredible as so many others have stated and the sound quality, with a little tweaking, is also amazing. I have used these wireless and wired and both sound very very good to my ears. While wired gives you true Hi Res quality depending on the source, I was pleasantly surprised by the Bluetooth streaming sound quality as well. No drops and a nice crisp sound that can be tweaked in the app to the user's liking. Almost two months in and I am very satisfied with the headphones in terms of features, sound quality, and overall build.

Great to hear the noise cancellation is helping you stay focused at the gym! To keep them performing their best, remember to wipe them down after use as this model is not water-resistant.

Best of the current main stream headphones.

Top of the line noise-cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise cancelling is the No.1 reason for buying these headphones. If noise cancelling is not your primary concern then I would recommend buying other headphones. I say this because the Bose 700 have better call quality for Teams or Zoom meetings, while other headphones have better audio quality. The audio quality of these to me is okay but a bit disappointing given the price tag. The bass is too boomy and the detail just isn't where it needs to be, this is made up for by the exceptional active noise cancelling that eliminates most exterior noise. Connection via bluetooth is easy and I appreciate the inclusion of a 3.5mm headphone jack option for wired connection. I use these wired with ANC on while gaming and it's great. If your phone or device supports Sony's LDAC codex then that is a plus, I can hear a slight increase in audio quality when using this mode. The headset call quality is not very good in my opinion, it's 'acceptable' but at this price range 'acceptable' is not very good.
