Posted .Thank you for your wonderful review, Caitlin!
We are so pleased to hear that your fiancé is getting such fantastic and constant use out of his WH-1000XM4 headphones. It's truly rewarding to know they are his go-to!
We are especially glad you appreciate the versatility of the aux cord option for his game controller.

Great headphones, and love the blue
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don't sound any different than my old XM3's, but I'm not going to complain about that - still some of the better Bluetooth headphones I've heard. Multipoint alone was worth the upgrade, but the Best Buy exclusive colorway really sets them apart from the tired looking black on copper. The blue's very dark, wouldn't have thought twice if you'd told me it was a Massdrop edition. My XM3's suffered from cracks in the weak point in the headband, supposedly this has been addressed with the new model. Only time will tell. Only real complaint is battery life seems ever so slightly worse than the last gen, but it's still more than a full day of use.

Hard to beat!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just amazing headphones. Can connect them to two devices at once and it will switch between them automatically if one device stops playing and another starts, so they’re great for music/podcasts while working because they switch to my laptop whenever I get a zoom or teams call. They pair incredibly well with my Sony tv, which allows for great quality listening at night without having to disturb the entire apartment complex (or the spouse/significant other!). Got these on sale and can’t recommend enough. The noise cancelling is top notch too, and the Sony headphones connect app allows for incredible personalization of the sound settings.

UNBELIEVABLE!!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fantastic. Just... FANTASTIC!!! The Sony WH-1000XM4 shows just how good a high-end, flagship pair of headphones can sound. Did I say fantastic? FANTASTIC! Get these. No, really, GET THESE!! Or otherwise you will never know what music really sounds like. Now, all I have to do is decide whether to throw away my Powerbeats earbuds, or give them away. I know I will NEVER listen to them again. Not after listening to THESE HEADPHONES. Difference?? Night. And. Day. No wonder these are the top-rated headphones. They are...I really can not explain it, okay. Just BUY them! You will not, definitely NOT regret it. I surely didn't.

Confortable and great ANC
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are very comfortable when wearing. I have worn these for long oeriods of time and they do not hurt my ears. ANC is great also on these headphones, and the battery life is awesome, i can go a week and a half without charging them. Picked these up when they were down to $230 and they were so worth it.

Drop the coin, worth it
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Dropped the coin for these to tune out the GF on a late night. They work better than expected. But I digress. I am a late 40s male and hard of hearing. At first I wanted to turn the volume up louder than these headphones would allow. Then I settled in. It's worth the wait. No outside nose from happy miss yappy pants. The music just sounded better. I've had these for almost a year now, and they work soo great that I kicked the GF, her un ambitioned kid and a yapppy dog out of my house. Yet, I still wear these headphones and enjoy the beautiful sound.

Great noise cancelling, some annoying features
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They have very good noise cancelling and good sound quality. They have swipe controls for volume, pausing, playing, and skipping songs. These controls work fine for the most part but can be annoying. The voice which lets you know when the battery is low and when it turns on/off is a little loud. It is also a little annoying to pair them with other devices because you need to turn it off and back on to do so. The noise cancelling and sound quality make these headphones worth the money, in my opinion. Far more comfortable and effective than others I have used.

Recommend these to everyone
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My wife bought a pair of these for me for Christmas years ago and she's been jealous ever since as she felt the sound quality blew her Bose headphones out of the water. Noticed these were on sale this month and decided to surprise her with the gray pair - she couldn't be happier.

Headphone review

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
