    Awesome headphones.Super lightweight, comfortable and have amazing sound quality. I could wear these for hours without discomfort, which is something I've usually encountered with other headphones. Definitely worth the price.

    I absolutely love my headphones. The noise cancelling is simple to use just set up the app, and your'e ready. I barely hear when my neighbor is vacuuming their uncarpeted floor. The connectivity is a little spotty over bluetooth but the jack works well with things like a Roku remote. Loved that I got them on sale. Didn't much care for the free Pandora.

    These are great! I use them about an hour or three a day and after two weeks was down to 30% battery! They block out so much noise. I got them for when I sew so I don’t have to crank up the speakers and disturb my family. I really like the sensor in them that stops playback if I take them off, so much easier than finding my device to pause or rewind with my previous headphones. I like that I can adjust the volume and skip tracks on the headphones by swiping. Highly recommended!

    Hands down the best headphones I've ever purchased. I started using these on Christmas daily, and there is still 30%. I've put in over 19 hours worth. They power on and pair quickly. Most importantly, the sound Incredible. Especially if you have a service like Amazon Music where they support Dolby Atmos and 360 Sound. I've never looked forward to listening to music after such a long day. These do the trick and then some.

    Comfortable to wear and noise cancelling works exceptionally. These are my favorite headphones I've ever purchased to date. The only negative i have is that they slip off head while working out in different positions other than sitting/standing up straight. Other than that, no complaints!

    My daughter said she was going to go deaf trying to tune out students with her earbuds. She likes to study in the campus center and that is where it is loudest. She said she had the music all the way up and still couldn't hear. She is so Happy with her headphones now. She wears them around her neck all the time I guess its now part of her aesthetic. I like it better because when I call her I can actually hear what she is saying. I couldn't hear the background noise like I had in the past. I love the part when I go to speak to her when she is wearing her headphones because the moment she starts talking the music stops. Now I know for sure she is listening! Definitely a win for me for anyone who has been ignored by a game playing child. The battery life is nice as well and she normally charges when she sleeps for the next day but they don't need to be. If she forgets they are still good for the next day. She loves the sound and music is her life so definitely worth the money to see her happy.

    Love these headphones. I have had them for two years now and they are still going strong. Only issue is that the feature where the music stops playing when I take my headset off no longer works. I also wish you could connect to three devices at once since I use my laptop, tablet, and phone while working. The app also sucks but other than that the headphones themselves are nice. The XM5 model are more comfortable, if you wear glasses I would get those.

    At one time I owned the Bose Sound Cancellers, this was a couple years back. I loved them, but I recently decided to make the switch to the Sony WH-1000XM4... WOW! These headphones are great, I wear them for hours throughout the day listening to lectures, or board review videos (medical student). Never have a problem with constant sweating. The quality is excellent, love that I can have two devices paired at the same time. Overall, would highly recommend these!

    bought them because of the TONS of reviews i’ve seen about them, after owning them a month or so i can confirm these are really amazing headphones. The sound quality and clean almost natural bass is so amazing. The noise canceling is really good i’m still getting used to how it activates but it’s amazing man not much thought has to go into this purchase.

    The sounds quality overall is okay but not as good as Bose. They do have a bit more bass than the Bose headphones but the notes and sound quality itself isn’t as good as the boss headphones. So if you want sounds quality don’t care for base I’d go with Bose. If your a bass head and don’t care much for quality of sound then grab these. They connect well and the app works sometimes with the headphones. But I went bald to the quiet comfort 45 Bose headphones. Just better sounding in my opinion you truly can’t go wrong with Bose they make better products.

    Purchased the 700 Bose headphones first, and while the sound was 'good', had too many issues with connections and with the Source List in the app not working when I needed it. Switched to the Sony headphones and couldn't be happier!! All my issues with Bose are nonexistent with the MX 4s. Longer battery, better sound (imo), better functionality with the controls since you have twice the surface area to work with... and the cheaper price is the icing on the cake!
