Very confortable on the ears and the battery life is amazing. Have them for almost a week using them every day and have not recharged them once yet. The noise cancellation is awesome. I definitely recommend this product. It is worth the price.

||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! They have the best noise canceling in the industry, they're light, comfortable, have a long battery life, and sound great! My only complaint it the color is different than the picture, they're more gray than the picture or name implies.

Worth the Money
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Performs as the specs say. Comfortable for long periods. Excellent noise canceling. I used to fly a lot and this was the best for noise canceling and functionality. Light and comfortable to wear around neck when running to next gate.

Same great headphone as its predecessor
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There really is nothing else to say about this headphone. It sounds just as great as the XM3s and the NC, IMO, seems better. The option to pair with two devices at the same time is useful though I would prefer if we could do more devices (I regularly switch between multiple devices and pairing again and again is a bit annoying when I exceed the limit). Unfortunately, that is really all that is new in this headphone, IMO. The speak-to-chat feature is annoying and I ended up turning it off. Battery life is the same. There is an addition of a sensor to the left cup to pause media when the cans are taken off. I find it hard to award this headphone 5 or 4 stars since there is hardly anything new except the option to pair with two devices simultaneously and the minor ANC improvements.

Fantastic!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After looking at a lot of reviews I chose these over ear headphones for an 11 hour flight. They were extremely comfortable and made the long, cramped, economy class trip less stressful.

Posted .Hi ShohelA!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us! It is fantastic to know that you’re finding your WH-1000XM4s to be a good set of headphones.
We appreciate the honest feedback regarding the noise cancellation levels, as it helps us keep improving.
To boost the noise canceling on your WH-1000XM4, here are a few simple things you can try:
-Check the Sony | Sound Connect app: Make sure Adaptive Sound Control is turned off. If it's on, the headphones might be switching to "Ambient Sound" mode because they think you're walking or waiting, which lets outside noise in.
-Double check that the ear pads are sitting flush against your head. If there’s even a small gap, the noise canceling won't be able to do its job properly.
Thanks for choosing Sony and sharing your feedback!
Best regards,
Estefany

Great Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Headphones are great! They have awesome noise cancelation and are very comfortable. Just like any over-ear headphone, they can get hot and sweaty if wearing them outside in the sun, but perfect for inside home or office use. App also lets you fine-tune to your own sound profile

Sony WH1000XM4 Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a couple of long flights coming up and decided that I needed to upgrade my headphones to noise-cancelling. These were on-sale, had good reviews, so decided to try a pair. Went to Best Buy to look at them and thought they sounded great. When I got home, I realized that the headphones came in a nice case and included a detachable wire so that I could plug directly into the airplanes system, perfect! Now I have the ability to go wireless or wired and have a great sounding pair of headphones.

Pricey but worth it
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these for back to school since I’m a college student and I need something that is noise cancellation and has long lasting battery. I use it to listen to recorded lectures as well as music when studying. I guess the only con I have is that I still can’t figure out how to connect it to both my laptop and iPhone and be able to make an easy transition from either devices.
