Posted .Hi ValeriaG, Thank you for the 5-star rating! We're extremely pleased to hear you are enjoying the amazing battery life and exceptional sound quality of your WH-1000XM4. These headphones have great cushioning and adjustability. This will help the headphones stay on your head while working out. I believe these will work great for you while working out “Non-Hardcore”. That being said, these headphones are not specifically designed for sports activities, I recommend you practice caution when working out with these headphones so they don’t fall or become damaged during your exercise.
The WH-1000XM4 is a new design, with intelligent and intuitive Ambient Sound Control features that include improvements to Multipoint connection and our industry-leading Noise Cancelation, exceptional sound quality, and Smart Listening that adjusts to your behavior and location. Thank you for choosing Sony! -Jess

Not a keeper for me
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought to listen to TV without disturbing others. Was using AirPods Pro which work very well but sometimes bugs my ears. Back to the Sony headphones… Sound is pretty good, not great. Seems to have some crackle at times. Could be the Bluetooth connection which is also why I’m returning them. They have a really hard time staying connected to our LG OLED C2 which hasn’t been a problem for the AirPods or other buds. Too frustrating. Purchased Bose QC Ultras to try instead. Much more money of course but way better sound and no more connection problems.

Gift for Son
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Son really seems to enjoy them. The feature vs. other brands is what sold me on these. The adaptive noise canceling and volume functions are great. Also, the pause by placing hand over the right ear is a great feature, so you dont have to pull the headset off.

Hot and bothered
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These run a bit hot on my big head, but the sound quality is fantastic. Its spoiled all my other sound systems. Need to put some time into figuring out how to make them comfortable (for me I have to wear them at max extension), while not slipping in the gym (much tighter), and the cushions are maybe a bit thin for super long wearing. Hurts after a few hours.

It's good to know you're happy and satisfied with your purchase. By downloading the Sony Headphones Connect app, it lets you adjust your bass levels and gives you sound quality presets.
