    These Headphones are great! Switching connection from one device to another is very easy and happens very quickly. The noise canceling is also amazing, with music playing, you won’t hear anything from the outside. The sound quality is great, I love that you can customize the sound through the app, for example, if you want a higher or lower bass, it’s easy to customize. I would recommend!

    I was looking for a good set of over ear headphones to use for Zoom and Microsoft Teams meetings and these headphones have been a total gamechanger. The sound is clear and so is my mic. Being able to connect to multiple sources has also been great, I can listen to podcasts and music on my iPhone and seamlessly swap to video conferences on my laptop, didn’t know what I was missing

    The headphones were worth the price, as it has immense noise cancellation and noise adaptability. The audio is adjusted to the environment and its good with the fitting. The only issue is its swivel as it tends to break often.

    I recently purchased the XM4s again after having my XM5 break on me. While in certain aspects it's worse, which is totally expected from a previous gen product, the number one thing that stuck out to me is how the noise cancelling is much better on the XM4s if you wear glasses. The XM5 noise cancelling is really finnicky if you wear glasses, and going back to the XM4s, and no longer having that issue that I decided to just put up with makes the XM4s a much better experience for me. Also, it's nice the XM4 folds.

    I bought these as a replacement for my wired Bose QC 25s, after trying the new Bose 700. Those were uncomfortable tight and the touch panel didn’t work well, but these have been perfect in every way. Sound is good, better is amazing, and the software features are really nice - I love the “use palm to cover right side and turn off noise cancelling to hear something” feature, and I use it all the time. I would absolutely recommend these.
