Easy to use with great sound
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound, easy to set up and use, comfortable. Some functions were too much for me. When I sang along with music, it would stop the music thinking I was in a conversation. I shut that off right away.

Posted .Hi JennaH,
Hello! We are glad to hear that you are enjoying the sound quality of your WH-1000XM4 headphones. We are sorry to hear you're experiencing some issues with the touch controls, as they can sometimes be a bit tricky to get used to.
To improve the responsiveness, make sure you are using the flat part of your finger to tap and swipe, and not just the fingertip. For the buttons, please ensure you are giving them a firm, deliberate press. If the issue continues, a quick reset of the headphones often resolves minor glitches. You can find instructions on how to do this in the Sony Headphones Connect app or our online help guide.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards,
Eliab

Great
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent headphones. I never tried the new Sony line of the noise cancelling headphones but I was pleasantly surprised. However, I feel like using them to talk on the phone is not so good, the other person has trouble hearing me when it is noisy around me. Also it comes with a bag and an airplane adapter and a cable which is very convenient.

Posted .Hi DanS!
We are thrilled to hear you were pleasantly surprised by your WH-1000XM4 headphones! It’s awesome that you’re enjoying the excellent sound and comfortable fit and having the handy bag, cable and airplane adapter makes it super easy to take them anywhere.
Thanks for being upfront about your experience with phone calls in noisy spots. The headphones use smart microphones and noise cancelling tech to help catch your voice, but in busy places, it can sometimes be tough for the other person to hear you.
If you often need to take calls in busy places, trying to find a quieter spot or adjusting features like Sidetone in the Sony | Sound Connect app can sometimes make your voice clearer for the other person.
Thanks for choosing Sony. We really appreciate you sharing your feedback, it helps us make our products even better!
Sincerely,
Estefany

Great noise canceling for focus
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these headphones to help with working at home. They are great. The first day I was wearing them I didn't even notice piano movers bringing a piano into my house. We have also used them with our smart TV. The microphone is OK for phone call. The dual paired devices is nice if I am listening to music and I get a call via my computer but works best when only 1 device is paired. I would recommend these. They are also very comfortable. I have a small head and they fit just fine.
