Great cans!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are awesome headphones. The blue ones are beauties too. Comfortable, easy to use, great sound and the noise canceling is soooo sweet. I just took a flight and now I gotta buy a pair for my wife. You can listen at low volume during a flight and not miss a thing. I almost went with the Bose QC II but I’m really glad I didn’t. Everyone says they’re more comfortable, but I’ve got a pretty big melon and I can rock these for 4-5hours while studying no problem. Just get them. Only con is they drop the Bluetooth every now and then. Whatever, takes 10 seconds to reconnect and get back on my way and it’s not often enough to really bother me.

Slight improvement over last gen Sony XM3
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.ANC on XM4 seems to be slightly improved over XM3, especially in the bass region. Otherwise nearly identical to XM3 in sound, fit & finish, and tech- which is a good thing!

beautiful design and premium sound
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great looking headphones. Online they look more pinkish, and I really didn't want that. But in person its a much more premium stone grey collor with nice gold accents. It looks less feminine in person than it does online. Probably the best noise cancelling. I can't hear a thing and the multidevice connect is nice because i can have both of my pcs connected to the headphones at the same time. Sony's app is really helpful too as you can have every device there so you can quickly jump to all of them when you need to. The battey life though is the best, especially since i am always forgetting to charge up my stuff i don't have to worry with these

MX4 review
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product overall, noise canceling is on point, and perfect for use at the gym, studying, quiet time, jamming music, and even having on while trying to listen to outside noise using ambient mode. The color was even better in person, and the packaging was great. Can't wait to see the XM6

||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these headphones back in March, and they are amazing. The sound quality is clear and high quality; very well balanced headphones so far. Wearing them for an extended time is not much of a problem when it comes to comfort. The noise canceling feature is great for being in your own little world while listening to audio. This is also an amazing alternative to the more expensive, higher end headphones out there.

Really good but can do without the touch buttons.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really good, love the fact it uses USB C like all my other devices and allows wired audio cable for my desktop that doesn't have Bluetooth. Noise cancelation and battery is pretty impressive. Can do without the touch buttons, the slightest bump pauses, skips... the music/Video.

Great on the airplane
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these for long distance flights and they did not disappoint. Great noise cancellation to block out engine hum and surrounding people. Was helpful for reducing the sound of a crying baby. Also produced good sound quality for airline movies. I still like to use the cable to be able to connect without WiFi and it worked great!

Excellent quality, ideal for travellers
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wow, these have amazing sound quality! I tested them side by side with the XM5s and honestly I prefer these, for sound quality. The noise cancellation is good, maybe not as good as the XM5s but still much better than my in-ear buds-live. I used them for about 5-6 hours at airports and on planes and they handled airport and plane noises well, with a brief loss of cancellation during plane landings, so no big deal. The battery stayed almost fully charged too, so these guys are no joke, unbeatable for frequent flyers!
