Not the newest, but the best?
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These XM4's are just what I needed. My XM3's are dying and the XM4's have updated Bluetooth to allow for multiple device connections. These may be two versions old, but the XM5/6's do not fold up as compactly and, as reviews point out, the headband may be slightly tighter. ANC is great and the sound is balanced.

No head soreness
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had Beats and normally uae my Samsung earbuds. These are the best headphones I've ever had. Battery life is better than I've had, wear them at night for 6-7 hours and battery usage has only gone down from 100% to 80%. Sound is outstanding.

Top notch
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound quality is top notch, the bass is remarkable, the only slight zonk is the noise cancelling could be slightly better, and there is a learning curve due to being feature packed. The design quality and materials used are also of a high standard, down to the included carrying case is smartly designed, with some thoughtful features.

2nd pair from Sony! Love them.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The most comfortable headset that cancels enough noise and yet doesn't make me feel like I won't hear if there was an emergency that I would not be aware of. I need to be distraction free at work, yet still aware if someone needs to get my attention. These work perfectly!

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

Great Headset!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headset! Was hesitant at first as I don't have over the ear headphones. Mine generally been in ear. It did hurt my ear on first use, but has since gone away now that I have adjusted the headset. Able to wear it several hours with no issue. It is comfortable. Great noise cancellation. Purchased this for long travel and to reduce noise. Sounds just as good.
