||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sounds great when listening to music and noise canceling is awesome with little kids and working from home but it is very frustrating to use on phone and conference calls I’m constantly being told I can’t be heard. I’ve adjusted the settings with only a little improvement. The only way to get good mic sound is you have to use the cord plugged into the headphones and your phone or computer which defeated the purpose when needing a wireless connection. For the price the mic should work better when on a wireless connection. My $28 wireless headphones work better for calls than this one. So don’t buy for phone calls.

I have worn these for long oeriods of time and they do not hurt my ears. ANC is great also on these headphones, and the battery life is awesome, i can go a week and a half without charging them. Picked these up when they were down to $230 and they were so worth it.

Good for non iOS
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Noise cancelling and transparency mode are good. However, pairing to iOS and MacOS devices is a pain. Would recommend to non-Apple users.

Posted .Hey Shane! Thank you so much for that fantastic review. We are so pleased to hear you consider the WH-1000XM4 the best noise-canceling headphones you've ever used! That's exactly what we love to hear.
You've put your finger on the exact reason why! The powerful noise-canceling is made possible by our HD Noise-Canceling Processor QN1. We've packed each earcup with two microphones that work together to capture all that external noise. Thanks to a clever algorithm, the processor then zaps that noise out in real time, giving you a truly distraction-free listening experience. It's rewarding to know we got it right for you.
Thank you again for choosing Sony and for sharing your experience. We truly appreciate your strong recommendation!
Best regards,
Gus, Sony Social Media Team

Great Sounding headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality is second to none. Would not recommend for a gaming headset, as the microphone does not have great voice pickup. If you're wanting the best sound you can get, look no further. The app makes these really easy to use, and you can really dial in the perfect sound for you.

Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had these headphones for almost a year now, and they are pretty awesome. They don't cancel out all noise (like on an airplane can sometimes hear what's going on around me), but for the most part they work great.

Posted .Hi bhunter, Thank you for the amazing review! We're very happy to hear you're enjoying your Sony WH1000XM4. The noise canceling function is effective in low frequency ranges such as airplanes, trains, offices, near air-conditioning, and is not as effective for higher frequencies, such as human voices. If the effect of noise canceling is not sufficient, please follow the steps on the link below:
