Just dooooooeeeeet
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are great. Love the sound quality and the ANC is tooop notch. There was a garbage truck going crazy outside of the empty warehouse I'm working inside of, and I cycled into noise cancelling...Holy crap it's like it wasn't even there. Great buy, fantastic battery compared to my WF-1000XM3 earbuds I got a year or so back. If you can spring for these, definitely do it. Paired easily with my iPhone and Macbook Pro both with and without the app. App is also much improved from my first experiences.

Overall good
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall amazing headphones, love the audio quality as a person who has bought a lot of main stream over the ear headphones. I’d say these aren’t for heavy gym users. The band is pretty will and it’ll fall when laying down in my experience

Posted .Hi Marco,
We appreciate your positive remarks on the WH-1000XM4 Headphones' outstanding audio quality, and it's great to hear they stand out among mainstream options. We understand your concerns regarding stability during heavy movement, like at the gym or when lying down, as these headphones are optimized more for premium listening and travel comfort rather than intense physical activity. For a more secure fit during exercise, you might consider our sport-focused models, which are specifically designed to handle greater movement and sweat resistance.

Amazing Overall
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best wireless, noise cancelling headphones out there imo. These are a big step up from the XM2s which I owned previously The sound quality is great as you would expect. Comfortable and minimal. The only nitpicks I have are with a couple of features, *speak to chat* & *pause when headphones are taken off*. The ladder is nice when it works, which is most times, but not all. Speak to chat however has become annoying. Its very sensitive to noise, not just your voice. Also it seems to activate even when switched off in settings.

XM4 review
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an excellent investment, it lasts long, has amazing sound quality, and is simply comfortable to wear, but they do start weighing on you after you have worn them for a while, like for 3-4 hours straight.

Wish they were a little more snug. I have a small head and they can be a little loose for me. Mostly just if I lower my head.

Huh What Did You Say
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wasn't that impressed at first, but they got better and better. First time I really used them was for a flight from Atlanta to New Jersey, to West Africa. I probably used them for a total of about 6 hours and when I landed they were still at 90 percent power. On the flight back someone had to wave to get my attention because I couldn't hear the passenger that was 3 feet away from me that was trying to get my attention.

Thank you for making Sony part of your daily listening.

ABSOLUTELY LOVE
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Honestly I saw a lot of reviews about these headphones and was influenced. But I could care less because THEY ARE WORTH UR MONEY. It can last days a couple days with full charge. The noise cancelling does work really well and the ambient sound feature allows me to hear things when I’m outside, so that itself is convenient. Overall 10/10. Absolutely love!

One of my best tech purchases of 2020
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I hate wearing earplugs or headphones that fit on my ears. I also hate having them on so that I can't hear what's going on in my surroundings. However, I saw these on sale and they fit over the ear which was more comfortable. Not to mention the noise cancelling and the ability to still hear sounds around me in a quick second without having to take them off. The sound quality is second to none. My daughter has BOSE and these are way better. They have been staying charged for what seems like forever. They are a must-have to

WH-1000XM4 Review
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Impeccable quality. I was hearing musical textures in songs I've listened to for years for the first time. The only negative thing I have to say about it is how sensitive the touch pad is. I'm always accidently hanging up.

Posted .Hi User144668,
We feel privileged to know that our headphones have allowed you to rediscover your favorite songs by revealing musical textures you hadn't noticed before. We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding the sensitivity of the touch sensor; if you find it a bit too reactive for your style, you can actually disable the "Touch Sensor Control Panel" within the Sony Headphones Connect app to prevent those accidental hang-ups.
Thank you for trusting Sony and making us a part of your daily listening.

They're comfortable, high quality, build & performance & the noise cancelling is OUTSANDING! You simply will not believe how well ambient sound is suppressed. You may not believe this, but, I assure you that I can't even hear loud thunderstorms with these on. I'm an audio production professional & know great sounding headphones when I hear them. These are definitely among the very best. You just can't go wrong if you buy these1
