    some of the best headphones money can buy. I like this model better than the later ones as it had a thicker headband which is comfy for bald people. cant wear the new ones without head pain. Sony please think of this for the XM7s this form factor was much better. the drivers in the xm3 sound the best for bass but somehow these still sound better than xm5 or xm6 they are trying to make them smaller but ruining the bass in the process.

    Awesome Sound. Kind of expensive, but the sound really delivers, especially if you use a 360 app. The buttonless feature takes a little time to get used to, but once you get it, its easy enough.

    These headphones were a gift to my son for Christmas. As I was in the kitchen prepping Christmas dinner, he comes in bawling. I thought something was wrong. I held him and asked him what was wrong. Through tears he said "I can hear evey sound. These are amazing headphones. Thank you so much mom." And the tears continued to flow. He was more than happy with his gift. I'm extremely happy that I got them on Black Friday because I thought about getting some for myself today for my birthday. Um....nope. But they sound fantastic!!!

    Very comfortable and charges quickly. The noise cacnellation is good, yet the software could be better. While using on an airplane recently I could still hear the rumble/mumble of voice in the background, even though I checked all the settings and they were as they should have been. Like I said good, just not great.

      Hi Denmeister3,

      Thank you for sharing your detailed review of your WH1000XM4! We're glad that you like the comfortability, quick charge and sound quality of the headphones. It's unfortunate that you're not having the best experience with these headphones. Make sure to update the software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app) for optimum performance. We appreciate your feedback regarding the noise cancellation of this XM4. Make sure to update the software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app) for optimum performance.

      The noise canceling function works primarily on noise in the low frequency band. Although noise is reduced, it is not completely canceled. Adjust the earpad position to fit your ears. In additional to checking all the settings, check that the Adaptive Sound Control is turned off. When the Adaptive Sound Control is turned on, the noise canceling function may become insufficient.

      Thanks for sharing your feedback and for choosing Sony!

    Really good sound quality. Clear and crisp sound. The best part is the noise canceling. Noise-canceling stops automatically if someone nearby or you start talking. However, one time I was listening to music, and suddenly there was no sound for no apparent reason even though the headset was connected and the music was running on YouTube music. When I disconnected the Bluetooth, I could hear the music playing on my laptop. So I had to restart the headphones and reconnect to the Bluetooth to get it to work again. This only happened once though. Comes with different sets of connectors. Can be used on long flights for noise canceling or watching movies.

    Noise cancellation is excellent. Comfort is very good. Works great with all my devices EXCEPT my android phone (Samsung Galaxy S10+). I can hear well with it but the microphone doesn’t work with the phone, so have to hold it up to use phone mic. But decided to keep it because it is otherwise great,

    After seeing many reviews, I decided to buy them and waited for Black Friday Sale, and finally got them. First thing to say the UltraHD music on Amazon Music Unlimited paired with these headphones is lit combo. I was able to differentiate between the HD song and UltraHD song. Moreover the 360 Audio was good but in my personal preference, I vote for HiRes rather than 360 Audio. Further, coming to noise cancellation, it was pretty good, it blocks most of the sounds, but some times I can listen to engine sounds, its very few times. Overall the best Headphones I have ever purchased. I highly recommend for daily use
