Sony WH-1000XM4 Headphones are better than Bose
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I replaced my Bose noise cancelling headphones with this Sony headphones and I do not regret it to this day! They are so comfortable and it is true noise cancelling. Easy to set up and operate. Connection to what I'm using them for is fast.

Good for noise cancellation under three years
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They lasted almost three years before a loud screech came through on the left ear cup. Great for noise cancellation especially if you want to go deaf haha but really they were good while they lasted. For $300 though I expected more

Great ANC with bassy sound.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A little bit too much bass I think. Makes some music sound a little muddy. Can probably fix this in EQ, but these were really comfortable and the ANC is really good. Recently got these for a 15 hr flight and they worked well.

Excellent noise canceling and other features.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comfortable and effective. The chat and ambient features surpass my older Bose Quiet Comfort headphones and the sound is excellent. The touch is cool, but mechanical volume control would be better. Good value when on sale.

4 is better than 3
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had the WH-1000XM3 headphones. I nearly wore them out after 4 years of use and would still have them if they weren't stolen. The WH-1000XM4 are better in everyway. My old XM3 would let noise in even in noise cancelling mode. When I wear the XM4 I can't hear doors open or close or my pets. I can't hear outside noise like I could with my old headphones. This is a bonus for stuff like flights. It's terrifying when I'm at home. I don't use these at home because I can't hear anything outside the headphones. I went with the XM4 over the XM5 because I feel like the headband is sturdier and would fit my 63 cm circumference head.

Nice small incremental update. Prefer over XM5
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Couldn't get used to XM5's as you can't comfortably wear them around your neck the same way as those the ear cups can't bend towards you and your chin smacks them any time you turn your head so I ended up with these. I use these for nearly 8 hours a day while working and they feel slightly heavier than the XM3's I had before and added to the weight discomfort but I can tell the audio quality and noise cancelling is somewhat improved over the XM3's. I thought I'd like the auto pause when you take them off but having to hit play again just because I'm adjusting them or want them to keep playing music while hanging on neck does get mildly annoying
