10 out 10 headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely love these headphones. I had seen a lot of reviews about how they aren’t the best for working out but they are amazing! They sink a lot of the noise from plates dropping, bars being re-racked, etc.

Great!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I listen to pornography while I work. It helps me focus. Only thing I hate is having to wear a diaper. The headphones are very beautiful like that girl who looked at my yesterday at Best Buy. I think she likes me. Mine have the reverse noise cancelling. Nobody can hear what I’m listening to. Great!

Excellent noise cancelling headphone.
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent noise cancelling headphone. Comparing to my old Bose QC35, this headphone fares better in term of sound quality and features. I am still not use to using gestures to control the headphone. The phone automatically detects when I talk and stop the music. In a noisy environment, this features mistook someone else talking next to me, sometimes does not work well and stop my music when I am not even talking. Kind of annoying.

Posted .Hi Dabraddah,
You made the right choice with the Sony WH1000XM4 headphones! We're glad that you are enjoying the amazing features of the headphones particularly the sound quality and noise canceling function.
Your feedback about the Speak-to-Chat function is greatly appreciated. The Speak-to-Chat mode activates when it detects the speech of the person wearing the headset. In places with a lot of noise, the speech of the person wearing the headset may not be detected, and the Speak-to-Chat mode may not activate. If this is the case, speak longer and louder. In some cases, in extremely noisy environments such as a train station or airports, the Speak-to-Chat mode may not activate even when speaking longer and louder.
Note: By changing the sensitivity of the automatic audio detection in the Sony | Headphones Connect app, the Speak-to-Chat mode can be easier to activate. Unfortunately, this may also activate accidentally the Speak-to-Chat in response to the voices of other people, ambient environmental sounds, transportation announcements, etc.
Thanks for sharing your review and for choosing Sony!

The noise cancellation on these are amazing!! Perfect for traveling, walking the busy streets, or simply listening to in your own home. I have always been a Bose person, but these are better than the Bose 700 in my opinion.

A real stand out.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The glowing reviews from audio magazines are well justified. I've never owned a wireless set that reproduced sound so well. I don't generally gush over things in reviews but Sony has a real accomplishment here. It hearkens back to the audiophile reputation Japanese companies had through the 80s.

I bought them to use when I’m traveling in my motor home which has a lot of road noise. But have since used them when working out and on an airplane.

Best Headphones I’ve Ever Had
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are absolutely great. I just picked them up today and used them, and the audio and noise cancelling quality is incredible. The app is also really easy to use. I was gonna get the Bose 700’s at first, but I chose these instead, and I am not disappointed. I highly recommend these.

Great audio quality, poor mic noise cancellation
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Summary: Great audio quality, poor mic noise cancellation quality = AVERAGE Overall Rating I purchased these headset as I have moved to work from home and do not have an enclosed office to work from. I am just steps away from the kitchen and the living room and there are no walls/doors in between. I needed headsets that would eliminate the background noise picked up by the mic in calls. These headsets are not the solution for that. AUDIO: 5 Starts. Its probably the best audio output I've ever had on headsets. I come from wearing BOSEQuet comfort and these are better by A LOT! so if you need a headset that allows you to hear audio while eliminating the surrounding noises, I highly recommend this headsets. It has some other perks like ability to enable audio from environment automatically which works pretty well. MIC: 1 star. There is no active noise cancellation. I'm not sure if this was my mistake, could have been... but I read on some reviews that it worked as such... it definitely does not eliminate environment noise picked up by the mic in calls. In fact the feedback I got from people on calls is that it even enhances it... I used it with a DELL laptop, a MacBook Pro, an iPhone and an iPad, overall the results were the same (better feedback when in calls over the phone).

Great headphones with a few major drawbacks
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good headphones with lots of software but the software and the amount collected information is absolutely ridiculous. You need a lawyer to explain what you're agreeing to. Honestly I have no idea why these are so complicated. No ps4 or 5 support even though they are superior to the sets they make for the systems. Pretty much a let down other than the battery life and sound quality after finally getting them set up. If you are getting them just for your phone and dont care about signing your life away these are for you.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from SonyListens
Posted .Hi DKII. while we are glad that you like the sound quality and battery life, we are sorry if you find these headphones complicated to use. This is definitely not the experience we wanted you to have with our products. We would love to help you and turn this into a better experience.
You can connect these headphones to your television so you can get the audio from your PlayStation and other gaming consoles. PlayStation headphones are best to be paired with PS4/PS5 consoles.
