They were okay
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Personally in my opinion they are really over hyped. They are so light and i was so scared they would break any minute. The sound quality is okay, 7/10 for me

Handy yet complicated
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hurts the ears a bit with the noise cancelling but when I changed the sound settings if works great. A bit too complicated with having the app involved but it’s not impossible to learn and when it sounds the way you want it sounds great!

Posted .Hi vitor,
Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the WH1000XM4. We're glad that you like the dedicated app of the headphones. Your feedback about the touch controls is greatly appreciated. You may find these steps helpful when using the touch sensor:
-The sensor of the touch sensor control panel is built into the flat surface of the right unit. Operate within the range of the sensor.
-When you swipe your finger forward/backward or up/down on the touch sensor control panel, the touch sensor control panel may not work correctly depending on the angle at which the headset is worn or the direction your head is facing. When you swipe your finger forward/backward, make the movements perpendicular to the headband. When you swipe your finger up/down, make the movements parallel to the headband.

Good Quality Sound. Worth The Price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Chose these after researching reasonable alternatives to Apple Airpods Max and am not disappointed. Sound is impressive and noise cancellation is reasonable. My guess is that the Apple headphones are more comfortable on the head after a while, but these aren't bad at all.
