Best Purchase This Year
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound is absolutely amazing and the ability to seamlessly switch between multiple devices without repairing is a game changer. It also has a feature I call "spouse mode" that will cause the music when you talk and then you on the outside microphones and then starts playing music when you stop talking. No need to take off the headphones every time someone talks to you.

Worth the money!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are by far the best headphones I have ever listened to. I was a bit hesitant to pay the price tag these come with. So I bought a less expensive brand, I was dissatisfied and returned them for the Sony WH-1000XM4. I am so glad I did! The old saying "you get what you pay for" is certainly relevant here!

Worth the purchase

Best sound and comfort
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best headphone for sound and comfortability. These are my second oak, since the first ones broke by wear and tear. They stayed in the case until I used them. I have now purchased the warranty to make sure I do not run into this issue.

Definitely worth the wait to upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wow! I liked the XM3, it feels and sound good. I’m so glad Sony finally came out with the new XM4 with multi device support. I waited to splurge on this headphone. The sound is still beautifully clear as the XM3. It fits nice and feel really light when wearing for long period of time. Still has best noise-cancelling feature of any headphones out there. Well worth the wait!

Worth the price, still wait for a sale.
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well, this is a premium set of headphones. And it definitely delivers. Noise cancelling is great, comfort is great, and sound is amazing. Very convenient having multiple devices on Bluetooth. The cost is high, so you may want to hold out for a sale, but they’re a good pair of headphones.

Really work for noisy neighbors
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was down to trying these noise canceling headphones (THE BEST) or possibly doing something that would end up in court. Upstairs noise was really getting impossible to live with. As soon as we begin to hear "Henrietta Hippo" begin her baby elephant walk we put on our WH-1000xm4's and cannot hear anything but what comes in from the T.V. or stereo. Peace at last. Use with MEE transmitter/receiver so both my wife and I can enjoy our lives again. Also good when one of us wants to sleep while other listens to or watches something else. WORTH EVERY PENNY and a lot cheaper than moving or hiring a lawyer to work out a plea bargain.

Great investment!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They definitely block out most if not all the outside noises. I'm happy with my purchase. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars is because they're bulky, touchy when working out, and they didn't come with at least a travel pouch. They worked perfectly for my flight. The battery life is on point.

Amazing sound quality. Very comfortable.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been shopping around for a pair of ANC headphones for a while. I’ve used the Bose 700s, Bower and Wilkins PX7, and the WH-1000mx3s. I loved the mx3s but the fit was a bit uncomfortable for longer periods of time. That’s not the case with these new mx4s. The extra cushion feels great and they feel very light. Overall an excellent pair of headphones. Best in its segment!

Superior build

Posted .Hi papiloxs!
It is most rewarding to hear that you appreciate the great build quality of the XM4 model.
Even though the XM5 has some sound improvements, the XM4s still deliver a premium audio experience with features like our industry-leading noise canceling using the HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN1, Speak-to-Chat, and an impressive 30-hour battery life with quick charging.

Hurt my head
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are pretty good. Good sound quality, work well with teams, etc. I returned them because of the fit. I wear headphones all day for work and these caused pain on the top of my head due to the shape. I don’t get this with the Bose quiet comfort or hyperx gaming headset.

Posted .Hi Will,
We are thrilled to hear your thoughts on the WH-1000XM4 headphones and appreciate you sharing your experience. It's great to know that the sound quality and Teams compatibility stood out for you. These headphones are designed with smart noise cancelling and easy controls to help keep your workflow smooth.
We’re sorry about the discomfort with the fit. Wearing headphones all day definitely calls for something that works for you and that kind of pain isn’t what we want for anyone. Your feedback on the shape compared to other headsets is super helpful.
Thanks again for taking the time to let us know how it went and for considering Sony products.
Sincerely,

Own two pairs
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones, waited years to buy a set of headphones because of cost and couldn’t find anything I liked. Bought these about a month ago and I have no regrets. Ended up buying my sister a pair as she loved them as much, if not more, than I do. Definitely worth the price you pay for what you get, quality is fantastic, very comfortable to wear, easy to use.
