Customer Ratings & Reviews

My daughter bought these for herself and they work really well! She said they are comfortable, sound great, and work great at noise cancelling.

I love these headphones, the noise canceling is great, they can save battery when you take them off of your head and the way you can connect with two different devices is the best feature in my book! I recommend these headphones, once you get a pair for yourself, you'll instantly love them!

These headphone are truly comfortable and pair easily with my iPhone. The companion app allows you to change the sound profile to your liking and also allows you to disable the swipe controls on the side of the earcups. The noise cancelling is great compared to my old headphones and is best-in-class from what I've heard. The battery life is surprisingly long (considering the weight of the headphones) and will comfortably last for over a day. That is more than enough for trans-Atlantic trips to Europe. The only thing is that I wish that the earcups were removable so that I can replace them when the time comes. The hard case is nice since it has a slot for all needed cables. I can confidently put the headphones in my tight bag without worrying about the headphones breaking.

Recently got these for my girlfriend. I got rhe XM5s for myself and she wanted the 4s because of the fact they fold. the XM4s have largely the same pros as the 5s i love the light and gentle fit it doesnf hurt your ears after hours of use. the battery life is amazing and the charging is ridiculously fast. The ambient sound control and noise cancelling are really good too. and i generally just really like the way they look.

This has been some of the best headphones I have ever had. There is adaptable noise cancelling which does wonderful work. I also love the bass. I wear them all the time and am able to because of the long battery life!

Absolutely love these headphones. The noise cancellation works great for tuning out background noise and helping me focus while at work or the gym. They stay secure on your head without that feeling of suffocation, and are comfortable to wear with glasses and earrings. The equalizer offers enough to perfectly balance any genre of music and the clear bass will make any bass lover like myself salivate. Definitely beyond satisfied with my purchase and would recommend anyone looking at these to just go for it.

Finally decided to pick these up the other day after eyeing them for a while. These are my first over-ear headphones from Sony, and I recently purchased the XM4 earbuds which were my first earbuds from Sony. All I can really say is that I'm blown away by these headphones. ANC is almost unsettlingly good, comfort is near-flawless, and sound quality is next-level. Sony's android app lets you customize them to your liking and the integration with voice assistant is something I haven't seen with any other brand. The head band itself makes a bit of a pressure point after wearing them for 1-2 hours straight but still nothing near the long-term discomfort of other brands. Can't recommend these enough.

Great build quality, top tier noise cancellation, extremely comfortable even after wearing it for long hours, extremely high battery life giving about 30hrs. Overall super happy with the product.

I was using my Sony MDR XB-950N1 which also has noise cancellation. I want to upgrade the headphone hence looking between 1000mX4 and Bose 700. I have tried these headphones numerous times in the product demo area. I felt Sony is having an upper hand on noise cancellation based on the demo i had in the shop's noisy environment. Sound signature is little on the bass side but most of ppl will be pleased with it and can control it in the app. The main difference from my previous sony is the comfort in wearing even for hours. This is amazing companion especially WFH situation, this will help to focus on your activity. The battery life is amazing, redefined the VFM in the premium headphone category. If you got this during the sale then this is a steal.

Comfortable and not heavy like AirPod max headphones also great battery life and noise control. Love them

I always wanted to buy Sony headphones and XM4 was right in my budget. They have excellent sound quality, connectivity and amazing battery life. They are comfortable and my ears don’t hurt when I’m using them for longer time periods. I have started enjoying my music even more. They are my companions at home, work, and travelling. Hands down they are the best over the ear headphones I have ever used.

Very good, it has good sound and the battery is durable.

PROS: 1. Outstanding sound quality 2. Excellent noise cancellation 3. Comfortable for hours 4. Long battery life 5. Easy bluetooth pairing. No dropouts. CONS: 1. Expensive. (but less of a con if you get it on sale).

I never really had a pair of nice over-the-ear headphones before but had gotten tired of earbuds and wanted to get something sturdy and quality to last me for a long time, and I’m so glad I chose these. Not only are they super soft, but completely cover/cup my ears so there’s no pressure on my cartilage piercings (something I was initially worried about causing irritation). I have a pretty small head so they fit comfortably without extending outward, but are still tight enough to stay in place on my head without slipping. I also absolutely love that I can switch between the different equalizer options to cater to what kind of media I’m listening to (audiobooks, different genres of music, etc). The noise cancelation isn’t as powerful as the AirPods, but it definitely does the trick. I also deeply enjoy that you can adjust how much ambient noise you want and the feature that allows noise transparency/audio pause when the headphones detect you talking or the headphones are removed. Has been used and helpful more times than I can count already. Overall, I’m super happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend to anyone looking to spend a pretty penny on some headphones.

Great noise cancelling. AMAZING battery life. Very comfortable. Really, the only reason it isn't a 5 are down to two reasons: Batteries: I'd rather replaceable batteries (no e-waste when the batteries eventually dies) and good but not great sound. But Sennheiser and the like aren't making the same great ANC headsets. And I love that I can still use a jack!

Pretty good noise canceling. Not audiophile sound quality but good enough to listen to all your favorites. Good battery life. Got myself a pair and bought another pair for my dad i liked them so much. Pretty comfortable. Not a big fan of that fake leather stuff just because if you sweat it can get sticky but thats partly me being a headphone snob.

Great sounding headphones with long battery life! Very comfortable.

Amazing. Sound is clear and noise cancellation works well. I love the feature where you press your palm on the side to hear ambient sound when you want. Battery is phenomenal—I’ve had these headphones for a month, used them almost every day for an hour on average and only had to charge them once. Comfortable as well, even on a small head like mine.

I was looking for two things when purchasing these headphones: comfort for my large head and excellent ANC to spare me the sound of my sisters when they're on discord voice chat nearby. I've tried a handful of other sets of headphones that have managed one of the two requirements, but never both. The Sony's manage both and have great sound to my untrained ears. The only ding I'd give them is the touch controls in general, but I tend to use these with my laptop and control most aspects with that rather than the headphones. Still 5 stars because I wasn't planning to toy with touch controls much anyway and the thing that matters (ANC) has a physical button.

I got the Sony WH-1000XM4 on sale and couldn’t be happier! The noise-cancelling technology is impressive, the sound quality is excellent, and the comfort is top-notch. Definitely one of the best deals out there — amazing value for the price!
