Customer Ratings & Reviews

Best wireless headphones I have owned. I used them during a 9 hour flight to Hawai’i and I was pleased at how comfortable they are over long wear periods. Great noise canceling, I accidentally put it on noice canceling at work and my co workers have to walk up and talk to me because I genuinely can barely hear them. Batterie seems to last the advertised 30 hours. 10/10 would recommend. Unable to speak on longevity/ build quality over time.

Bass is insane . Overall great sound quality. Best headphones I’ve ever purchased. Takes music to a whole new level .

These headphones do a great job of cancelling ambient noise. They are also comfortable to wear all day and I like the fact that I can set them up to either pause when removing them, or powering off. They sound really good for music and Podcasts.

Let me start by saying, this is my first pair of OTE headphones, and I can now say I have zero reasons to go back to earbuds ever again. ANC is superb, they hold a charge for days. Calls are clear, interactions with digital assistant features are near flawless. At the discounted price point, these are amongst the best value upper - middle tier options one could hope for

This product has tremendously changed by music listening experience. 1. The battery life on the device is amazing. I will go days where I listen to music for a couple hours or more before I get to even 40 percent battery life. 2. The noise cancelling abilities are better than I have heard in other over ear headphones. 3. Build quality is light yet solid, making it a comfortable wear for long periods of times. 3. The app the comes paired with the headphone allows for many useful abilities such as noise canceling adaption, multiple device connection, and many more. Overall great headphones.

I returned a set of the previous generation in time for this new addition. While I've yet to utilize all functions of this, I can say that what it sells you on (Battery life, ANC - Active Noise Cancelling) and built in assistant (Alexa/Google Assist), it does amazingly well. The promise of dual connectivity will help greatly from the work from home life. Toggling between Videos on one device (laptop) and an incoming phone call (cell phone) is seamless to the point that (dual connectivity) it happens immediately and reverts back to what you were doing. Very impressed but it's not a must, more so a huge bonus. Plus a user like myself who is an active traveler will utilize both the promise of cancelling surrounding noises while enjoying music.

loved my bose qc 35 and bought these to try out. the bass is much deeper and i love for music and movies. I do like the passive technology when i fly i can easily listen to flight changes etc without removing my headphones. Comfortable and now my designated travel set. However qc35 are still a bit more comfortable for extended use like gaming or for work. also the app is great and i can manage the noise canceling from my phone-- in addition its easy to manage multiple phones synced simultaneously (i have a work phone and personal phone) so playing music on one device and getting email notifications on the other is convenient.

Really excellent headphones. Comfortable. Long lasting battery. Compact. Very balanced sound. Not boomy or fatiguing, but bass goes down low. Noise canceling feature is great.

The quality of the sound is amazing and it's typical of Sony products. They are very comfortable to wear for several hours. I say A PLUS for anyone considering buying this model!

I recently bought a new one for my boyfriend and it is amazing. I’ve had one for myself for over 3 years and it still works amazing. The quality of the audio and the battery life is beyond enough. I recommend this for students and for those who go to the gym to feel like they are in their own world.

These are not my daily headphones but they are indispensable when I really need quiet and relief from the chaos that can be present in public places like airports and airplanes. On any flight, I actually feel less stressed and less tired after wearing my XM4's. They drown out the noise so effectively that it's almost like stepping into an isolation booth. My daughter borrows them when preparing for competitions so I gave her mine and bought a second pair. I considered the newer versions but I've been so happy with these that I didn't want to change anything. Highly recommended! Places used: airports, airplanes, track meets, at home when vacuuming :) My favorite feature: touching the pad of the headphones to turn on ambient sound so I can hear and speak to someone. The other related feature is that it will pause music and turn on ambient sound when you start talking so you don't have to manually pause and remove your headphones to do so. Audio automatically pauses when you remove the headphones as well. Other cool features: swipe up and down on the headphone surface to change the volume; swipe forward and back to skip tracks. None of the above would be worth mentioning if the sound quality was not as good as it is. It's not too boomy - the sound is crisp without being harsh. I grew up listening to high end audio and these headphones deliver.

Recently bought these to replace a pair of Bose QC 35ii's that'd I'd been using for travel for several years, and the leather had finally given way (and aftermarket replacement ear pads just ruined them). I've always liked these Sony's, and bit the bullet and switched. Overall, I do really like these. They are a tick heavier than the Bose equivalents, but not all that noticeable even with a few hours of wear. The sound equalizing is really nice, and a big differentiator from Bose. Really strong bass. It's more noticeable which is L/R compared to the Bose. It's a little thing, and maybe I'm just a moron, but there's a visible difference. The 3.5mm cord is a lot heftier than what Bose provides. I never broke mine, but I was always worried it would happen. Great battery life. A couple negative marks (and why I can't give them 5 stars)... The "vacuum" created with ANC is a lot more noticeable to me than with my old Bose headset, and I'm not in love with that after using these on a few trips. Also, I'm not in love with the lack of buttons and dependence on touch "gestures" for controlling volume, skipping, and pausing. I also worry that, over time, there will be visible wear on that headphone (right side). At least for volume, it'd be nice to have more tactile control (see people's complaints about touch screens on cars). Definitely would recommend these though if they're in budget. All-in-all...great set of headphones.

I usually don't spend this much on headphones. Well, never have I ever. I usually stick to included earbuds which are no longer or those less than $20. So, this was a splurge and one that was well worth it. I got it on sale but would totally buy it at full price. These are THAT good. The Sony app is actually useful and has a myriad of settings to dial in the optimal sound for the environment. It also allows you to adjust ANC to be able to hear ambient sounds. One of my most used features is the gesture that if you hold the right ear cup, it'll pause music. It can also pause music if you start talking. There are too many features to list here. Overall, I would recommend these all day long.

These are much better than the ult wear if anyone is wondering, Ult wear’s are not good. I purchased both and returned the ults immediately and kept the xm4’s. for $200 or even $150 I can’t recommend the ult. Xm4’s are clean and clear in all areas and similar bass as the ult. The old sony xb900n are vastly better than the ult in everyway, new is not always better for the ULT. XM4’s for gaming it’s surprisingly very good. Clean bass and soundstage is good for closed back, some gsmes im finding myself hearing new sounds and shocked out good they are for gaming. As Someone who games with the audeze maxwell headphone ($300) the xm4 are better than maxwells when gaming wired to a controller. (Consoles) very impressed and on sale for $200 its a great buy. These will stay in the collection

These headphones are phenomenal. Noice cancellation, in app customization, sleek design…they’re really great. I picked these up because I refuse to pay for the AirPod Max. I used the headphones in the office, at the gym, and at home. They pair almost as nice as some of my Apple products, so don’t worry about lack of compatibility if you’re in the apple ecosystem. I truly don’t have any complaints. I can keep them on for hours at a time and barely kill the battery. These are everything I need when I want to fully dive into my listening experience.

Great sound, very comfortable and excellent noise cancellation. Try these watching a movie and you will be hearing sounds you never get to hear. Like you were inside the movie.

The headphones have excellent sound quality and are super comfortable. I especially like using them on a long-haul international flight to comfortably block out airplane noise.

Lightweight and comfy with good battery life. Sound quality is pretty good.overall some great headphones

These headphones are absolutely incredible. The sound quality is top-notch, and the noise-cancelling feature is a game-changer. It blocks out almost all ambient noise, making them perfect for travel or just focusing on work. They are also extremely comfortable to wear for long periods. I highly recommend them to anyone in the market for a premium audio experience.

I love these headphones, I use them everyday and the customization in the app is really neat too. The bass and volume possibly might make me deaf but who cares lol. Only con is that my headphone ear broke and I can’t get them fixed even though I still have a warranty. They only offer fixing for wear or tears, and there’s a fee (I think $99) with their partnered company or something but they only fix the headband part so…
