Sony headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound and very comfortable. I wouldn’t buy these for someone if they have a smaller head. They did not fit my girlfriends.

Better than I imagined! Outstanding!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Extraordinary sound options for all musical tastes. For my taste the base is perfect. Fit is also extremely comfortable for long movies or concerts. There's a learning curve to fully appreciate and try all that they can do. Be patient. Pairs extremely well with my lg V60 phone both wired and wireless. Also pairs well with Samsung Q80T TV. (must download app and follow the instructions!) LOVE auto shut off when you remove them and pick up right where you left off when put back on! Can also be customized to your own ears. Worth the money! You will have these a long time!

Best Headphones out there.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best headphones ever. Blows Bose away. Noise cancelling is top of the line and I love how they can connect to two Bluetooth devices at once. I can be listening to YouTube and get a phone call and my computer will automatically pause YouTube for the phone, then automatically resume once I hang up the call. They're also very comfortable. I can wear them all day without any discomfort. Battery life is amazing.

Decent sound & noise cancellation, bought twice
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've purchased these headphones twice now. The first set lasted a couple of years' worth of heavy use. I love that I can pair it with two devices. The noise cancelling is decent. It recharges VERY quickly in only 10-15 minutes. The app on the android (my phone) is a better than the one for apple devices (my iPod). The second pair tends to have a few minor issues, but I am still happy with them in comparison to if I went with the next model. I had also looked at a few other companies, but found this set was still the best value for your money (on sale) and functionality.

So far, the best headphones I've had in this price
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are ears down the best headphones I've ever had. Over the years I have had all sorts of brands including Beats and Sony, mostly on ear versions. Over the ear is clearly better and where these win are with comfort and battery life. The battery is long lasting and the comfort to match. The ability to connect to two bluetooth items is another winning play in my book.

great headphones with some of the best noise cance
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are great! They do a very effective job of reducing/eliminating background noise. They are so effective that when I take them off and you hear the hum of the AC or the whoosh of the air moving, it sounds loud! You get used to the dead quiet very quickly when these are on. It can be so quiet that it may cause some people discomfort, so it's nice that there are adjustments available to allow some amount of ambient noise in. They also pair very easily with multiple devices (I have mine paired with a Mac laptop, a Windows laptop, my phone and an Android tablet). There are tons of reviews on youtube and other places online that go into way more detail that I could in this small area, so check those out, but the take away from all of those other reviews is these are some of the best, if not the best sound cancelling consumer grade headphones. I have to agree with that after testing (and buying) a number of others. I've found these to be pretty comfortable to wear for all day conference calls and the audio quality is great for music and voice. The carrying case is a really important feature for me since it protects the headphones in my backpack when I'm traveling. Overall I'm extremely happy with these and would buy them again if I lost or damaged them.

Best headpones!
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the best headphones I've ever used. Don't just put them on, listen to music and decide the sound quality. With these you have to download the app and adjust the EQ to make them sound good but once you dial it in, they are fantastic. I've never once had a drop from the bluetooth connection or distortion even walking away from my phone all over a house. The noise cancellation is great too.

Why did I put off buying these for so long???
|Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been planning to buy a pair of Sony 1000X headphones since the original MDR-1000X came out, and I finally pulled the trigger and picked up a pair of 1000X-M4s on Black Friday. I knew they were good headphones—I've always known they're great headphones—but they STILL exceeded my expectations. They're comfortable. They have excellent noise cancellation. And the audio quality, especially on the high end (vocals, snares) are HANDS DOWN the best I've ever heard. I genuinely couldn't believe how crisp and smooth the audio is. They're feature rich, especially with the companion app. I'm not the biggest fan of the touch controls, but that also might just be something I need to adjust to. Seriously, buy these headphones. You will not regret it.

Love These Headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have really been enjoying these headphones. The sound cancelling works wonders and the sound quality is amazing. The touch feature to control audio and playback works well. One thing I really liked was when taking off the headphones it would automatically pause your music and restart once you have them back on your head. Ive spent hours listening to my favorite songs and revisiting them again in a better sound experience.

Amazing Wireless Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been using the Sony-WH-1000XM4 wireless headphones in Midnight Blue for 3 months now. I bought these originally to help with flying anxiety and they served that purpose well but I didn't expect how much I would use them beyond that. I now use them in conjunction with my earpods for mobile listening, swapping between the two depending on the situation. Overall These headphones are amazing. I am very happy with the sound quality. Soundwise gives me everything I want and you can adjust things like the bass in the sony headphones app. The app works well enough and allows you to set the devices your headphones connect to (can have 2 connected simultaneously). The noise canceling performs best on constant sounds (which I think is where all noise canceling functions best). Additionally the sound pass through feature I have found to work as promised. The physical feel and interface is great as well and I love that is has the functions that work with my iphone/ipad such as double tapping the right headphone to pause/play. The headphones fold up nicely into a carrying case that is protective and works great for me carrying these in a backpack.
