Amazing Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are amazing! I probably spent an hour in the store trying to convince myself that the Bose and Beats headphones were better than the Sony ones but my ears would not let me! I bought these to drown out the noise while studying and they work perfect. When you put your hand on the outside of the right speaker you can hear the noise outside of the headphones. Truly amazing!!!!!

The best you can buy
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worth every penny, got this on sale for two seventy eight. -Noise cancelling 10/10 -Sound quality music 10/10 -Sound quality voice 8/10 (some distortion but that’s to be expected of most headphones) -Comfort 8/10 (perhaps I have a bigger head but it does clamp me a bit after 3-4hr use) -Style points 8/10 (personally I think the beats have flashier colors and more modern shape) In the current market as at august 2021, these are the best that money can buy before going into studio level headphones

Killer value, great features, no reason to buy xm5
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones. There is no reason to buy the xm5, they didn’t make enough upgrades to justify the cost. Buy these and save the money. These are the best consumer grade headphones in their price category. I am a professional audio engineer and the sound quality and ANC is second to none without buying into a much higher tier.

Awesome Headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the first pair of wireless headphone I have purchased. I love the sound quality and the noise cancelling technology. You can place your hand on the right side and hear if someone is talking to you without taking them off. The volume is controlled by swiping your finger up and down on the side. Highly recommend. If you see them on sale definitely buy one. I got an amazing deal on my at Christmas time.

SOUND AMAZING, WORK AMAZING
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got these as a gift for my wife a while back and she has been using them so often that she sold her AirPods pros and will not head to a gym or coffee shop without them. I have the level below these that I bought around the same time and I'm honestly a little jealous whenever she tells me to listen to something on them.

Posted .Hi user178620,
We are so glad to hear that your husband is enjoying his new WH-1000XM4 headphones! It is a great testament to the quality of the series that he chose to stick with the same model for his programming work, where the industry-leading noise cancellation and 30-hour battery life are perfect for long, focused sessions. We hope this new pair serves him just as reliably for years to come. Thanks for choosing Sony.

Great for Home or Mobile Use
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They work great, not ideal for studio quality sound engineering, but apart from that the best pair of headphones I've ever owned. If you need studio quality, get wired.

We are thrilled to hear that you consider the WH-1000XM4 the best pair of headphones you’ve ever owned! That is high praise, and we are so pleased they are delivering a superb listening experience.
We also appreciate your insightful feedback on studio quality. You are absolutely correct—for the flat, uncolored frequency response required for professional sound engineering, a dedicated wired monitor headphone is always the best choice.
Thank you again for choosing Sony!
