||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very nice headphones. I ended up buying 2 pair with 1 a gift. The headphones sound very balanced, musical and are very versatile making it easy to listen to various sources. The noise cancelling works well as does the microphone. The songs encoded with the 360 Reality Audio add another dimension to listening. The programmability of these headphones is unbelievable and quite useful. These headphones deserve a front seat with my other equipment and deliver on all fronts.

Posted .Hi HeatRate, we're glad you like the sound quality of our product. The WH-1000XM4 headphones offer further improvements to our industry-leading noise cancelation, exceptional sound quality, and smart listening that adjusts to your behavior and your location. Using the Sony Headphones Connect app, Ambient Sound Control lets you adjust the volume of background sound and gives you the option to allow voices alone to be heard. For total convenience, WH-1000XM4 headphones can be paired with two Bluetooth devices at the same time. So when a call comes in, your headphones know which device is ringing and connect to the right one automatically. You'll also be able to quickly, smoothly switch your headphones to either of the two devices at the touch of a button. Thanks for choosing Sony. ~Earl

Best headphones I've ever owned!
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these to use in my office in the middle of a machine shop. They work better than my previous headphones from another leading noise canceling provider and add useful features for me like the headphones cutting off when I talk or cover the right ear piece with my palm. The app controls work fine, I've only been in the app a few times after setting up. Highly recommend to anyone in need of good noise canceling with premium sound.

One of the Best
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hands down the best over-ear noise canceling headphones I’ve ever used. I’m really big into music and beats and when I saw many reviews I had to hear it for my self and I gotta say these are a 5/5. Sony really did an amazing job with these. The clarity in music is just CRAZY you fell like you’re in the studio while hearing music. If you have Apple Music I would definitely recommend these as they have great quality songs

Disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these as a replacement for my Sony XM2 headphones, but they fell way short of that benchmark. I bought the XM2 version probably 5 years ago, and they completely changed my relationship with music and headphones. They are on at least 2 hours a day. I thought I'd never buy anything other than sony after that, those headphones are still as good as they were when i got them (I mostly upgraded so i could give them to my daughter, and I just wanted a nice new set). The sound from them is absolutely perfect, and every note comes through. The XM4s aren't complete garbage to be fair, they're just not good enough to replace what Sony was making 5 years ago (or whenever the XM2s were put out). These felt cheap, were uncomfortable, and subtle elements from some of my favorite music just wasn't coming through. I returned them after a week. I genuinely loved my XM2 headphones, and was sad to have to find a different solution outside of Sony.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.these are the best headphones i have ever had. there’s a bit of a pressure feeling (like if your on a plane) when you put them on due to the noise cancellation. Saying that the noise cancellation is a 10 out of 10. only con in the touch sensors aren’t sensitive enough so it’s a bit hard to pause,skip, lower volume,etc. p.s. i also don’t think there’s not much of a difference between these and the m5. these are better price for same awesome quality .

Just as good as the MX5s
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely top-tier headphones, the software for it is amazing but you don't even need it to get great sound. They perform just as well as the MX-5s for the most part, but appear more reliable from what I've heard.
