Not the newest, but the best?
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These XM4's are just what I needed. My XM3's are dying and the XM4's have updated Bluetooth to allow for multiple device connections. These may be two versions old, but the XM5/6's do not fold up as compactly and, as reviews point out, the headband may be slightly tighter. ANC is great and the sound is balanced.

Pretty Good
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like these headphones a lot. Pretty comfortable and light. Nice features and noise cancellation. They do not feel expensive but function like they are. I liked them enough to buy me and my brother a pair. The black pair is low key but the midnight blue pair adds a little touch of color but both are still subtle.

Comfortable and great sound.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Headphone was very comfortable. I wore it while sleeping on a 5 hour flight and had no issues. The sound quality is great, watching movies and listening to music was a game changer for me. $350 is worth the price but is understandably expensive for most. If you ever see this on sale be sure to pick it up.

The Best A/N/C Headphones!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great Headphones, I had the 2nd generation and those were already quality headphones and these are still miles better, the notice canceling is top-notch. They are just as good as the Bose 700 which I have tried as well, even more comfortable, and for about 100 dollars left a much much better deal. Sony knows what they're doing!

Perfection!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome noise-cancelling headphones. Comfortable and the noise cancelling feature is really, really good; I wear these all day at work as the ability to pair to 2 devices simultaneously is a game changer. The recent Sony headphones app update fixed a few issues I was having with Adaptive Sound. They’re perfect!

AMAZING headphones.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I LOVE these headphones. I use them for just about everything. The noice canceling is by FAR the best i have had. I can go walking next to traffic and not hear a single noice. I'vebeen on planes and couldn't even hear the planes taking off. If you need a pair of headphones to block out your kids or your nagging wife, these are for you. Block out the world abs just be with your intrusive thoughts with these headphones. I actively show people these headphones and have talked people to bordem about them. I try and get everyone I show them to to but a pair.

Exceptional
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve owned pretty much the previous 2 generations of this and this model is by far the best. It’s lighter, and I love how we can finally connect to 2 devices! Took them long enough. I’ve been a fan of the touch features and being able to hold a hand over the ear cup to let sound in. Now you can enable when you speak for it to stop playing and that’s super convenient but of course can be annoying sometimes too. But I definitely recommend these over any of the other headphones on the market.

HPs are very customizable for a person's noise cancelling preferences. They are very comfortable to wear. Damien, Store Manager, at Arundel Mills MD store gave me the sale discount because the sale price had ended unbeknownst to me 2 days earlier. So I got a ready great price.

Good Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So let me start off with, I returned the headphones. The noise cancelling is awesome and it has some great features. Also, these are very comfortable headphones, although they are very light and can easily be bent. As an audiophile want-a-be, I thought the sound was very good, but not great. I prefer the sound of my Sennheiser M2's although they are not nearly as comfortable. (the Sennheiser M3 is out now for $399). Sound is subjective so try them out first and compare to other products.
