    Best ANC headphones yet! The multipoint Bluetooth is great when you figure out how it works. The sound cancelling optimizer originally ruined the noise cancelling after I used it twice but I exchanged them and they’re back to normal.

    Great quality headphones. Very durable. They have fallen from high places due to my work environment. I work in construction, zero issue with the headphones. Truly love them. Just wish I could every once in awhile replace the padding or somehow clean them a little better since I do sweat a lot while I'm working.

      Hi JIMaximo,

      Great! We're thrilled to know that you like the sound quality, durable design, and overall performance of the headphones. Having read your review regarding the earpads replacement, while it is possible to replace the WH-1000XM4 earpads yourself, we recommend that you have them replaced by an Authorized Service Center. If you take care of your WH-1000XM4 headphones, they should last for several years. Please follow the link below for some tips on how to keep your Headphones in mint condition, and extend the life of your Headphones.
