Best pair of over the ear wireless headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is probably one of my best purchases this year. As a musician and producer, I have to give credit to Sony on this pair of headphones. The sound is phenomenal and the noise canceling works great. The frequency response is great and I like the app you can adjust specific frequencies if you want to change how they sound. The battery life is super great. It was worth it.

pretty good a little slippy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these headphones for myself because my beats headphone cups were shedding everywhere. I find the sound quality is a huge upgrade but the headphones while comfortable can be a bit slippy if you wear them while laying down.

Posted .Hi OlyF,
We are happy to hear you are enjoying the significant sound quality upgrade and finding your WH-1000XM4 comfortable! The "slippy" feeling you mention when lying down can sometimes be minimized by slightly adjusting the headband to ensure the earcups have a secure, but not tight, seal around your ears.
Thanks for choosing Sony. Best regards, Eliab

Boose headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The main reason I bought it is obviously for the gym. I wanted something to be loud and clear and motivating when I’m on the treadmill, but I noticed it’s not that loud so I kinda don’t like that part of it other than that I like it’s a nice color it’s lightweight.

Posted .Thank you for sharing your feedback, KarlaV.
We are so pleased to hear that your WH-1000XM4 headphones are lightweight and that you enjoy the color. We designed them to be comfortable for active use, and it's great to know they are working well for you in that regard.
We also understand your comments about the volume. We apologize that the headphones are not as loud as you'd like, especially when you need that extra boost for your workouts. This is certainly not the motivating experience we aim to deliver. If you haven't already, we recommend checking your device's volume settings, as well as the Sony Headphones Connect app, to ensure the volume is turned all the way up.
Thank you again for your valuable feedback.
Best regards, Gus, Sony Social Media Team

Great set of active noise cancelling headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable for extended use. Larger than average sized head and felt great during 11 hour flight. Noise cancellation works well and sound quality is excellent. Sony’s version of Apple’s transparency mode doesn’t work quite as well, but at nearly half the cost I see no reason to splurge for the AirPod Max headphones over these.
