Great for programmer husband
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these for my programmer husband. He loves them- he had another pair for years and when they finally died he knew he needed to get the same kind.

Posted .Hi user178620,
We are so glad to hear that your husband is enjoying his new WH-1000XM4 headphones! It is a great testament to the quality of the series that he chose to stick with the same model for his programming work, where the industry-leading noise cancellation and 30-hour battery life are perfect for long, focused sessions. We hope this new pair serves him just as reliably for years to come. Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

Great for Home or Mobile Use
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They work great, not ideal for studio quality sound engineering, but apart from that the best pair of headphones I've ever owned. If you need studio quality, get wired.

Posted .Thank you for your fantastic review, toastmalone!
We are thrilled to hear that you consider the WH-1000XM4 the best pair of headphones you’ve ever owned! That is high praise, and we are so pleased they are delivering a superb listening experience.
We also appreciate your insightful feedback on studio quality. You are absolutely correct—for the flat, uncolored frequency response required for professional sound engineering, a dedicated wired monitor headphone is always the best choice.
Thank you again for choosing Sony!

Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are great headphones. The ears are soft and comfortable for long periods. The noise cancellation is great, as is the ability to switch back and forth. Over ear headphones get warm on my ears quickly, but I don’t think that can be helped.

For your issue, having unusually dry skin can store static electricity in humans. A large amount of static electricity in the body and having contact with electrical devices at the same time can cause stress on the device and/or on your body. You can avoid this from happening by wearing clothing of natural materials that can't store static electricity.
Thank you so much for choosing Sony!

Great sound and comfort, finicky software
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound and comfort are pretty good. Bluetooth on Windows 10 PCs can be a little inconsistent at times and so can the app on Android as it can be impossible to connect sometimes. The app is needed to change certain settings like EQs or touch controls. There are times where I have to unpair the headphones from my device, uninstall the app, then re-pair it and install the app again for it to work again as doing the usual turning off and on the Bluetooth on the phone or holding down the power button on the headphones to pair don't always work to get the app functioning properly. It can also be difficult sometimes to update the headphones to the latest firmware as it will not always download it right away even with automatic download turned on. Overall, these are a great pair of headphones, just wish the software side of things could be a bit better.

Posted .Hi ZonaGamer,
We're glad that you like the sound quality and comfort of the headphones. It's unfortunate that you're having connectivity issues with the app. Make sure that the Sony Headphones Connect app is up-to-date for optimum performance. Resetting and initializing the headset may also help resolve the issue:

I Love Them, Haven't went a day without em AWESOME
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I Love these headphone, the Noise Cancellation is amazing, ofcorse you can hear minor sounds, especially if they are just on your ears with nothing playing, with something playing, they are incredable, I am very happy with my purchase, sometimes the left ear makes a little humming sound but it comes and goes and really isn't that big of a deal, When using them to talk to people on the phone, they are great for you and the person you are on the phone with, with these headphones and the technology, they hear you better than ever.
