Didn't last long enough.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They were great while they worked. Comfortable, great custamizable sound. Shortly after the 2 year warranty ended (extra year from BB), the noise cancelling no longer works. Sounds like an ocean in the left ear. They still work if I use Ambient sound off, but I really liked the noise cancelling feature.

Posted .Hi MovieNerd,
Thank you for the review! We're glad to hear that you like the comfortable design and sound of the headphones. It is unfortunate to hear that the noise canceling of your headphones does not work anymore. Please allow us to help you and turn this into a better experience. We highly recommend resetting the headphones to factory default settings. Here's the link on how to.
https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm4/v1/en/contents/TP0002752746.html
If factory reset does not work, update the software of your headphones using Sony Headphones Connect. A firmware update improves the functionality and features of your device. It can provide fixes to any performance issues that may occur.

I found Bose 700 better
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I found them average. Bluetooth connectivity with multiple device take at least 10 sec to switch between the devices. Sound is pretty good but I think Bose 700 is much crisp.
