Beats Bose Quiet Comfort 35
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've just had these a couple of weeks but so far the Sony M4 wireless headphones impress, as does the accompanying Sony APP, which features an excellent equalizer with enough customizations to get the sound you are looking for. The headphones themselves have a rich, bassy sound that is enhanced by the aforementioned equalizer embedded in the Sony APP. The touch controls take a little getting used to but work well. The headset's noise-canceling features are top-notch as well. Based on first impressions this device gets five stars.

Posted .Hi EricS, you definitely made the right choice! Sony’s industry-leading noise cancellation evolves to further immerse you in your music. The addition of Sony’s proprietary HD Noise Canceling Processor QN1 masterfully eliminates the noise around you. Listen all day with up to 30 hours of battery life. Quick charging gives five hours of playback with just a 10-minute charge.
To get the most out of your WH-1000XM4, download the Sony | Headphones Connect App. It includes Adaptive Sound Control—which automatically adjusts noise canceling based on your activity and an equalizer—which can be customized to fine-tune your music. Using our advanced noise canceling technology, we designed these headphones so you can block out noise and experience next-level silence. Plus, you have the ability to use the convenient smart features including Quick Attention, Google Assistant/Alexa/Siri compatibility, and touch controls. Thanks for choosing Sony.

And Another One
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have previously purchased every installment of these headphones and love each and every improvement, I love the newest features except "speak to chat" it won't let me sing a song without interrupting. The change function button should account now for Siri, I don't own a pixel or android, and they need to make room for Siri. Most sony headphones were able to dual connect, but i am glad these do so seamlessly. I thought these were better and cheaper than the Apple version. I am also a Sony Fan.

Great for Music, not so great for meetings
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are the best at the price for music. Excellent sound quality that allows me to hear sounds I’ve never heard before in music, it truly allows you to enjoy the music and makes it almkst feel like you’re there. However, when it comes to calls and meetings, the microphone picks up every single sound which can be a little frustrating.

The best noise-cancelling headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sony wireless noise-cancelling headphones, did just that. I had purchased them for my vacation to Europe, and many they cancelled out all the noise around me, on the plane, at the airports and it was great!!! I highly recommend these to anyone who needs some quiet time where it's hard to get quiet time.

Big bang for your buck
||Posted .

Otherwise the sound is amazing as it the noise cancelling feature. Very comfortable, as well.
