WOW
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best ANC in the game right now, took these on a flight and wow! They’re just great over all headphones, only thing for me is that the bass isn’t too heavy, so if you’re a bass head, maybe these arent for you, but great for all music genres & even for watching movies

Great headphones, Some quirks, A bit overpriced
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Big fan of the sound. 360 audio is amazing. You can really hear the surround sound. A few cons... I don't like the case at all. I think it's difficult to fold up the headset to fit inside the case. These headphones ARE NOT for working out. Battery life isn't 30 hours when you're blasting music (makes sense) but is still pretty long. Overall, if the price was maybe ~$50-75 cheaper., I'd be very happy and give it 5 stars.

Sony Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are perfect! I never had high end headphones before but the sound quality in these are so clear. I also like the multi tasking for answering phone calls and how it pauses the music when you take them off so you don’t miss anything.

Sony Wh-1000XM4
|Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great noise cancelling. Sometimes difficult to control using the touch control on side of the headphones.

Posted .Hi TaylorV, Thanks for sharing your feedback! We're glad you are happy with the noise cancelling featture of your headphones. These steps may help you when the touch sensor is not responding correctly:
The sensor of the touch sensor control panel is built into the flat surface of the right unit. Operate within the range of the sensor.
-When you swipe your finger forward/backward or up/down on the touch sensor control panel, the touch sensor control panel may not work correctly depending on the angle at which the headset is worn or the direction your head is facing.
a. When you swipe your finger forward/backward, make the movements perpendicular to the headband.
b. When you swipe your finger up/down, make the movements parallel to the headband.
Hope this helps.
Thank you and regards,
-Craig

Amazing quality and robust features - still finding more. The Midnight Blue color is sick. Only drawback is that your ears and head will need a break after a few hours.
