Fantastic Noise-Cancelling Headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A great product and a great deal from Best Buy with convenient delivery. Product arrive exactly when it said it would. The noise-cancelling head phones work perfectly for my husband's needs. Perhaps they work too well as he can't hear me anymore. :)

Posted .Hi user327825,
We are thrilled that your WH-1000XM4 headphones arrived on time and are working perfectly for your husband! It sounds like the noise cancellation is definitely living up to its reputation. If you ever need to get his attention without him taking the headphones off, he can simply cover the entire right earcup with his hand to activate "Quick Attention Mode," which instantly turns the music down and lets ambient sound in. He can also enable the Speak-to-Chat feature in the Sony Sound Connect app, which will automatically pause his music the moment he starts talking to you. Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

Excellent but...
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One of the best headphones I've worn. The sound is so clear and the bass is perfect where it doesn't muffled the music. The comfort is good but if you have them on at least 3 hours, your outside ears starts hurting in discomfort. The JBL under armour is the most comfortable. Battery life is very long. Overall everything is excellent.

Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these for my husband for Christmas and let me just start off with saying wow! I am not well versed in tech but the sound quality, noise canceling and comfort these provide are outstanding. I never found headphones to be comfortable until I put these on. From the experience we have had so far, 100% would recommend.

Great Headphones, thankful for customization
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are fantastic headphones. The best sounding wireless Bluetooth headphones I have personally ever used. The sound quality is extremely detailed and enhances the overall listening experience. Applicable whether you are listening to compressed music files or even more so demonstrates attention to detail with less compressed, higher quality music files, such as on Tidal or Apple Music. The immersive capability with 360 degree sound and/or Dolby atmos is incredible. I hadn’t listed to roses by the chain smokers in years due to saturation/overexposure, and I listened to its 360 version thru Tidal and it sounded like a whole new experience with the nostalgia of first discovering the song. The noise cancellation is truly impeccable - you quite literally hear nothing outside your own world it creates. The ambient noise feature is quite definitive while listening to music, podcasts, etc. layering it on top of what’s going on around you - helpful in for when you’re in the office. The headphones app is absolutely necessary in my opinion as you can customize characteristics and more importantly disable any features that aren’t to your liking. Personally, voice to chat; ambient sound control; among a few others come to mind which I deactivated. They would interrupt or fluctuate the listening process. The ambient sound control seemed interesting from a conceptual standpoint, but it really tries too hard in my opinion. Scaling between full ambient sound and noise cancellation - now the scale is great, the mind of its own - take a lap buddy, you're not that guy.

World Class Audio Quality and Noise Cancelling

best NC Headphones !

NC is amazing, Sound quality is top notch. Touch interface is sometime a bit annoying but it will grow on you (still prefer physical buttons) It is light and comfy enough to stay on my head during 9to5 hours and extra. If you want to use this for mobile gaming , it works fine, I'm a hardcore player with PUBG mobile , this headset has been an extra help for my gameplay!

The sound quality is insane
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You would think for a pair of headphones that is over three years old that they would sound as if they would be falling off in sound quality . But that’s where you would be wrong they still hold up to be some of the best sounding headphones to date. Also, I know people don’t like to download apps for a lot of things, But the app that works with this pair of headphones Is worth it because of all the features that it holds you can have a custom EQ you can tweak different options in there. The pass-through is really nice as well. There’s a lot of great features.

A great headphone
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones. I’m sad Best Buy no longer sells it directly but they are affordable and sound great. Mine broke at the hinge. I now have the xm6s which are amazing but I wish they had bass like the xm4s and maybe the same comfort.
