Nice Pair of Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You can do a lot of controlling of these headphones through the Sony app. Love the 360 sound you can get with the Deezer app. The sound is great, I’ve heard details in tracks I’ve listened to before in these headphones I’ve never heard before. If you want a pair of good quality headphones, and don’t like Bose, or Senniheiser, these are the headphones to give a try.

Posted .Hi Mady,
Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the WH1000XM4. We're glad that you like the noise canceling function of the headphones.

For optimum performance, it is recommended to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app). When using a video calling application on a computer, switch the Bluetooth connection to HFP or HSP with the computer. During a video call, sound quality may become low due to the conditions of the communication line. You can also check the settings of the app that you are using for mic sensitivity if available.

||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I avoided buying a noise cancelling headphone because of the cost but after researching which one was the best. I bought this one and am very happy with it. Only the cost holds it down

Sony done good!!
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sounds quality is great. Noise cancelling is also very good. Touch volume adjustments on the outer right earpiece are a little touchy. Volume level doesn’t get quite as loud as I would personally like, but at least it is distortion free. One of my favorite purchases nonetheless!

The best noise canceling headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best Sony noise canceling wireless headphones yet. I work in a very noisy environment, slip on these headphones, turn the noise canceling on, and I’m loss in a world of pure sound. Sony’s LDAC Bluetooth allows my HiRez music to stream without the the clarity lost by the much lower bitrate of other codecs. (My iPhone can broadcast using the LDAC codec)

Sound Purchase!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I subscribe to Consumer Reports. They highly rate these headphones, so I bought them. I am thrilled with the quality. There are more advanced headphones on the market, but I don't think the cost is worth the bells and whistles they provide. If you want quality phones that are easy to use. these are a great deal.
