    Love them - great on the plane. I'd prefer the Bose - but when they are sold out - these are a great 2nd choice.

    These are great for noise canceling and they only fall short of 5 stars because of the crackling in the left ear cup that many others have reported. This is especially during takeoffs for flights.

      Hi Ryan, we are so glad to hear that you are happy with the noise canceling feature of your new WH-1000XM4! For the crackling noise on the left earcup, depending on the surrounding environment, crackling noise may increase when the Ambient Sound Mode is turned on. In that case, cancel the voice focus with the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app. If the noise is still significant, turn off the Ambient Sound Mode.

      Should you need further assistance, please contact us for help.

      Please email the below information to socialsupport@am.sony.com.

      Regards,
      Carl Sony_US
