That's awesome! It's nice to know that you are still enjoying your WH1000XM4. We're glad that you are still pleased with the sound quality and noise canceling capability of your XM4. Thank you for choosing Sony! - Marco
Excellent for noise canceling, mics OK.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After a long trial period of 3 different Sony noise-canceling headphones, these are no doubt the best of their line. I would have given them 5 stars but the only drawback was the mics. When placing calls, the receivers of the calls mentioned that I was not as clear as a previous set of headphones from another brand. Still, these headphones are by far one of the best I have owned.

Travel? Hate noise? Get these!!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you do a lot of traveling get these. The NC is top and the sound quality is great. Not audiophile quality, as your listening through Bluetooth. I haven't heard through a DAC yet. just enjoy tuning out the world on long flights. Mic for the phone is above average.

Best headphones ever
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve loved Sony headphones throughout the years as early as the 1990’s (Walkman). The previous wonky headphones were great but this new model is just plain amazing. The noice canceling is second to none. I definitely highly recommend this headphones to all!

||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the Bose 700 and with the noise canceling on I could still hear my roommates yapping downstairs with my door closed and music at moderate volume. I returned them for these Sony’s. BEST DECISION EVER. I can’t hear them at all. The Sony app is also more seem less than Bose.

Love them
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great quality headphones. Very durable. They have fallen from high places due to my work environment. I work in construction, zero issue with the headphones. Truly love them. Just wish I could every once in awhile replace the padding or somehow clean them a little better since I do sweat a lot while I'm working.

Posted .Hi JIMaximo,
Great! We're thrilled to know that you like the sound quality, durable design, and overall performance of the headphones. Having read your review regarding the earpads replacement, while it is possible to replace the WH-1000XM4 earpads yourself, we recommend that you have them replaced by an Authorized Service Center. If you take care of your WH-1000XM4 headphones, they should last for several years. Please follow the link below for some tips on how to keep your Headphones in mint condition, and extend the life of your Headphones.

Really nice.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These sound VERY nice. As usual with noise-cancelling headphones, the soundstage isn't very wide, but the tones all come through nice, even, and clear. I would say the noise cancelling sounds like having normal in-ear gummy earbuds, or putting your fingers in your ears.

Posted .Hi Myxo, thank you for the awesome review! We're glad you like the sound quality of your new headphones. If you haven’t already, download the Sony - Headphones Connect APP. This will give you the ability to fine tune your music using the built-in equalizer.
And to ensure you're getting the optimal noise canceling experience, please try to follow the guidelines and troubleshooting steps below:
Make sure that the noise canceling function is turned on.
Adjust the headset into a comfortable position.
Check that the Adaptive Sound Control is turned off.
Check the setting of the Adaptive Sound Control on the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app. When the Adaptive Sound Control is turned on, the noise canceling function may become insufficient.

||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have owned Bose noise cancelling headphones for years. Was up for upgrading my QC35 II and debating over this and the Bose 700. The new Sony WH-1000XM4 wireless headphones is a clear winner compared to other noise cancelling headphones in the same price range.

Great upgrade!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these headphones. I upgraded from the 3s and even though feature wise the changes aren’t drastic, it was enough to prompt me to buy these on sale. What really has me over the moon is that the ear cups are slightly larger than my older ones making them much comfier to wear.

Sony WH 1000XM4 headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are VERY quiet to outside noises! The batteries last a fair amount of time and charges quickly. I also have a Bose 35 and either one is good. I say....always try the ones you are looking for and get the one that you like.

Last years best, still the best value.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing sound both for pop/rock as well as classical. Decent app that allows for equalizer adjustments. Not as seamless with Bluetooth connections as Apple AirPods. Would have preferred dedicated buttons to the trackpad style gestures.
