Excellent but pricey
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Honestly these have been my daily drivers for work and just general use. Great battery life, excellent sound quality, and on long flights with kids it did it's job swimmingly. I will say the only reason it doesn't get 5 stars is that Sony or BBY keep fluctuating the price and I'd purchased them full price making it weird to recommend. Def a must buy if on a solid sale.

Love them
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have had these for 31 days and listened to/wore them for just over 220hrs. Worth the money if you listen alot or want it to be quiet. Occasionally the touch surface swipe is misread but I wonder if the headphones just aren't always on straight

Best noise cancelling headphones ever!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best headphones I ever owned. I used this headphones to travel a lot. They are very comfy and nicely built. I truly got to test their noise cancelling during last Pride. Pride is super loud and I got to use the headphones to walk inside the parade taking photos.

Exceptional!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far, excellent! I has the earlier model, which I plan to return due to Bluetooth issues. I must say the current model is lighter and has no such Bluetooth related issues. I favor deep bass headphones, and SONY is perfect for such. Plus, I love the color midnight blue.

Sony WH-1000XM4
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound quality is fantastic. Have not tried to use the microphone yet. Does not feel like I'm wearing them even though several hours have passed. Would definitely recommend. Especially if they are on sale.

Excellent upgrade! Best noise cancelling headphone
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are well worth the price. They are by far the best sounding noise-cancelling headphones out there. I've tried offerings from Bose, Sennheiser and a few others. The sound on the Sony are by far the most realistic, with a well balance between bass, treble and mids.
I would recommend this to a friend Definitely Worth the Money!!

Best WFH headset
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best WFH headset I’ve used. Only con is that the microphones pick up to much outside noise and can be heard within teams calls. The noise cancellation is amazing on planes and while listening to music. Battery life is excellent as well.

Best Headphones Ever
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these headphones! The noise cancellation feature works great. Even if you don't want to listen to music, just having the noise-cancellation feature on is amazing for blocking out outside noise. The only thing is that the sound does leak if you are in a very quiet area if the volume is around 75% full volume. These work great for working out, however, if I'm doing pilates or yoga, they tend to slip. Totally recommend buying them. I bought them during the time that amazon had their prime sale, so I was able to get them cheaper!

XM4s - great value & continue to out perform XM5s
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have used Beats (over the ear) headphones for many years. After listening to my son’s XM4’s, I knew there was no going back. After testing the XM6’s, while there are small upgrades, the XM4’s are proven and loved by many, including our family!
