I love these!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am ND and my kids are...loud. These are amazing. I absolutely love that I can adjust how much background noise comes through. They are soft and comfortable. One of the best purchases I have made. They are a little pricey - but so worth the money.

Headphone review
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great clarity and noise reduction is amazing, the only thing that was lacking was bass, over all would recommend.

Posted .Hi JustinR,
That’s great to hear you are enjoying the amazing clarity and noise reduction of the WH-1000XM4 headphones! If you find the bass slightly lacking, you can easily customize the audio profile in the Sony | Headphones Connect app. Go to the Sound tab and use the Equalizer settings; you can either select the "Bass Boost" preset or, for the best results, use the custom EQ and increase the horizontal Clear Bass slider, which is specifically designed to add low-end punch without distorting the overall sound.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab
Amazing Overall
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best wireless, noise cancelling headphones out there imo. These are a big step up from the XM2s which I owned previously The sound quality is great as you would expect. Comfortable and minimal. The only nitpicks I have are with a couple of features, *speak to chat* & *pause when headphones are taken off*. The ladder is nice when it works, which is most times, but not all. Speak to chat however has become annoying. Its very sensitive to noise, not just your voice. Also it seems to activate even when switched off in settings.

One of my best tech purchases of 2020
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I hate wearing earplugs or headphones that fit on my ears. I also hate having them on so that I can't hear what's going on in my surroundings. However, I saw these on sale and they fit over the ear which was more comfortable. Not to mention the noise cancelling and the ability to still hear sounds around me in a quick second without having to take them off. The sound quality is second to none. My daughter has BOSE and these are way better. They have been staying charged for what seems like forever. They are a must-have to

top notch!
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are AMAZINGLY GOOD! I use them for 2 to 6 hours every day. They're comfortable, high quality, build & performance & the noise cancelling is OUTSANDING! You simply will not believe how well ambient sound is suppressed. You may not believe this, but, I assure you that I can't even hear loud thunderstorms with these on. I'm an audio production professional & know great sounding headphones when I hear them. These are definitely among the very best. You just can't go wrong if you buy these1

Nice noise cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Noise canceling is the best!!! Any design or color is fine. Unlike AirPods, it does not hurt your ears even if you use it for a long time. Also, the price is reasonable, I think. The battery lasts longer than expected. It can connect to devices and uses MacBooks and iPhones with it. Switching to Bluetooth between devices works better than expected.

Expensive but worth it
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are comfortable, sound great, have good noise cancelling, and generally do everything I want. The one downside is you can't charge and listen wirelessly at the same time. But the recharge speed is fast and battery lasts long, so that isn't really a problem. You can also plug it into a 3.5mm audio jack, which the wire is thankfully included, but noise cancelling won't be available if you use it that way.

Best noise cancelling and bass
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are awesome! I had the previous version for a few years until they broke, so when I got these I was hoping they would live up to the XM3s. And they do! The noise cancelling is elite and blocks out almost all ambient noise. The sound is clear and the bass is the best sounding I've heard in headphones. The quality of the construction is great and they're comfortable to wear for hours.
