Sony vs Bose
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sounds quality overall is okay but not as good as Bose. They do have a bit more bass than the Bose headphones but the notes and sound quality itself isn’t as good as the boss headphones. So if you want sounds quality don’t care for base I’d go with Bose. If your a bass head and don’t care much for quality of sound then grab these. They connect well and the app works sometimes with the headphones. But I went bald to the quiet comfort 45 Bose headphones. Just better sounding in my opinion you truly can’t go wrong with Bose they make better products.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.have watched a lot of reviewing videos of comparing the xm4 and AirPods max. And finally, decided to buy this one. The weight is a major concern, I always ware a headphone for over 8 hours a day for meeting/music. I don't think I could do this with an AirPods max. I know the sound quality of AirPods max is better than xm4, but I don't think it's a huge difference, xm4 has already met my expectation. anyway, I would recommend this product, especially when I saw airpods max is cost $550.

Great for kids with autism!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased for 15 year old daughter with autism. Noises bother her and affect her life negatively. She heard about these online and begged us to get them for her. Without hesitation we did so and it has been a great purchase. She can ride in car, go out in public and restaurants without being over stimilated now.

Sony Over Ear Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like these headphones the sound quality is super good, the ANC is ok and I love that these came with a hard case and not one of those soft cloth cases. I returned them back because of the price when they go on sale I will definitely purchase them.

Love these
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these on sale for a great deal.. Amazing sound quality. My TV wouldn't turn up the volume high enough for my liking so I use an aux chord to my controller. I use the dolby atmos app on my Xbox and it really brought these headphones to life. It makes games and movies sound much more full and dynamic. Using them on my phone is flawless. Music sounds fantastic and podcast sound rich. The app is easy to use and I like that you can adjust the eq settings. The noise canceling works great too!

Great pair of ANC headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got Apple AirPod Max last Xmas, but wanted to give these a try at $100 off and wasn’t disappointed. Much lighter/confortable to wear and like the ability to tailor the EQ to my preference. My only to knocks are connecting to 2 devices is a bit clunky (had issues of it constantly connecting/disconnecting to 2nd device while listening to my primary device which was annoying) and the APM seem to me have a better transparency/ambient mode.

We're happy your WH-1000XM4 headphones sound great, but apologize for the connection issue with your computer. This is often fixed by clearing the headphones' pairing history: please try performing a factory reset by holding the power and NC/Ambient button for about 7 seconds, and then attempt to re-pair with your computer.

Excellent all around
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great set of headphones. I had the originals and decided to upgrade to the Mk 4s. The noise cancellation is amazing. I can sit right next to a window air conditioner and hear nothing but silence. Sound quality is very good in most aspects. The bass is a little heavy at low volume and a little light at very high volumes, but overall it's still pleasing. The speak to talk feature is clever. And the ability to focus on voices and filter out other sounds works better than I expected. All in all, I'm pleased.

One of the Best
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hands down the best over-ear noise canceling headphones I’ve ever used. I’m really big into music and beats and when I saw many reviews I had to hear it for my self and I gotta say these are a 5/5. Sony really did an amazing job with these. The clarity in music is just CRAZY you fell like you’re in the studio while hearing music. If you have Apple Music I would definitely recommend these as they have great quality songs
