Must buy if you can still get them!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use these when I go to the gym. The battery life is super long and its easy to connect to my phone. With the SoundConnect app I can set how much noise cancelation I want and can change the EQ. If you remove your headphones while listening to music to talk to someone else your music will pause until you put them back on. The sound quality is a solid 8/10

Posted .Thank you for your fantastic and detailed review, MagnoliaNic!
We are absolutely thrilled to hear that the WH-1000XM4 headphones are serving you so well at the gym!
It's rewarding to know that you are benefiting from the super long battery life and the easy connection to your phone. We are especially pleased that you are utilizing the Sony | Headphones Connect app to personalize your listening experience, allowing you to perfectly dial in the Noise Cancelling level and change the EQ.
We designed the wearing detection feature (which pauses your music when you remove the headphones) specifically for that kind of seamless convenience, making it easy to talk to others without missing a beat.
Thank you for your strong rating of the sound quality and for choosing Sony to power your gym sessions!
Best regards, Gus, Sony Social Media Team

Sony WH1000XM4
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are absolutely amazing. The sound is completely crisp and provides plenty of bass when using an equalizer like Dolby Atmos. One other thing I love about these headphones is that the noise cancelling completely blocks out any and all background noise. Overall, these headphones are a 10/10 in my book.

Perfect Comfy Headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very, very high quality headphones. The only issue has been the connection in/around a Bluetooth car speaker system, where connectivity gets weird. Other than that completely irrelevant nitpick, these are perfect.

Close to perfection but a win for Sony
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my second time with these headphones by Sony. When going through the setup process, you are guided by the app to scan your ears along with setting up your own personal settings. Once you have the app configured to your liking, listening to music is a pleasant experience. You definitely hear the warm tones of the music with a nice soundstage. My only complaint is that after a few minutes of listening, your ears tend to get warm. The touch controls on the side are great, however, Google Assistant will be removed and will only use Amazon’s Alexa which to me is a bad move since I use Google Assistant at home. A part from this, you have pause to talk which is great in theory, but if you hum to a song that you enjoy, the music will pause which can get frustrating. The headphones come with its own case, headphone cable, and charging cable (plus an airplane adapter). The noise canceling is one of the best (second compared to AirPods Max), but what I do enjoy is the activity features built in to it. What I mean is that if you start walking, noice cancellation turns in to active mode so you can hear your surroundings instead of being closed off, but if you are still then you get full noise cancellation. For this to work you have to enable location services, so it is up to the user if to enable that feature. Overall, these are great headphones and I enjoy using them out in public as I keep my AirPods Max for home use. Wait until you see holiday deals for these headphones as you can get them for about $270 compared to the retail cost of $349
