Best headphones ever.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used to have beats solo pros which had much smaller ear cushions. Because of that, wearing them for an hour or two it started hurting. Those headphones were also noise canceling but I didnt know noise canceling until i tried these. Now i cant study without them. Having a bunch of settings is awesome too. the only issue i have is to change the volume you need to swipe up or down which takes much more time/ effort then tapping up or down to change the volume

Posted .Hi AbrahamC, You've made an excellent choice! Thank you for upgrading to your new WH-1000XM4 headphones. We're glad you're enjoying all the improvements we made on these headphones. Your assessment is spot on! The headphones blend sophisticated style with exceptional comfort.

And with a lighter-weight design, you'll barely notice you're wearing them. Thank you so much for the amazing review and for trusting Sony! -Jess

One of the best noise canceling headphones out!
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comfortable, great noise canceling, fits over ears perfectly, convenient design to fold up in carrying case, pairs easily with any app or device, good base. One thing to note: outside of the Sony headphones app, you can also adjust the settings in your actual phones settings. Took a minute to figure out, but it makes a huge difference when you learn how to do that as well.

Great Deal for great headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I think these headphones are great. I got them on a black Friday deal. Although they are great, I would never pay retail on these or the XM5 or XM6. If you can get a deal, snag them.

Consider these for premium over-the-ear headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used to own a pair of Bose noise-cancelling headphones and they were great but needed to be replaced after having them for over 6 years. I was going to purchase the most up-to-date Bose headphones but also wanted to do some research on other competitive brands. After watching countless videos and getting a better lay of the land, I was able to make a decision on these Sony wireless noise-cancelling over-the-ear headphones. They sounds very pristine and I love the 360 audio feature....it's really freaky at first but it's definitely a one-of-a-kind experience! They also feel much more premium than the headphones I had before so I have confidence these will last a long time.

They're not good enough.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After using these headphones along with Beats Studio, Wh- 910n, these headphones are overhyped, overpriced, but over performed. I like the comfort which over did the Beats Studio. They're aesthetically pleasing like Beats. The noise cancelling over performed. Compared to the Cases for each of the headphones, the XM-4s have a cuter and more protective case. The only problems that I have had with the XM-4s is that they're hard to connect to any of my Apple devices, and they randomly disconnect and turn off out of nowhere which is neither rare or common. But compared to the expensive Air Pods Pro Max from Apple, these have way better sound quality and more minimalistic with swipe on the right side of the Headphones, you can access ambient sound, pause, play, and play your next song. Compared to the wh- 910n, it is hard to turn on Siri by just touching the pad of your right cup which the wh-910, It is more worth getting the WH- 910 which are 100 dollars less but sacrifice the aesthetic for the better quality, and better base.
