Feature packed amazing set of headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing noise cancellation. Can't hear anything with music and ANC turned on. With just ANC on, I can still hear loud noises but much more suppressed. Easy to use 2 devices without having to forget and re-connect. Amazing battery life.

Amazing Headphones!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I thought nothing could beat the WH-1000XM3's, but Sony proved me wrong. The WH-1000XM4's are better in every way, from being more comfortable to the amazing new features. If you are looking to spend money on a good quality set of headphones, look no further.

Sounds great, some quirky features
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These have excellent quality sound with great battery life. They do shut off when you lay down if the automatic shut off is activated. Simple fix but kind of a weird feature. The blue LED light blink randomly. Unsure how to stop that from happening.

Excellent noise canceling and other features.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comfortable and effective. The chat and ambient features surpass my older Bose Quiet Comfort headphones and the sound is excellent. The touch is cool, but mechanical volume control would be better. Good value when on sale.

Great Set of Wireless Cans!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you're here then you probably know how good these headphones are and having had them to toy with for the last few days I'm quite happy with my purchase. The ANC is amazing, it's been a great boon to my work from home. Additionally it's great that I have an easy way to take calls, listen to music and switch audio between my computer and phone with ease. The only downsides are call quality is just ok, it's not gonna blow your mind but there are better options if calls are your primary use case. Additionally the LDAC is not available when you have two devices connected. Minor gripes and far exceeded by all the positives. If your willing to splurge on a set of wireless headphones these are a great pick.

Excellent
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent headphones that block out the noise. Very comfortable, but the "pressure" (from the ANC feature) can be a bit much if you're not used to it. I love that they are compact.
