    I used these headphones on my 15 hour flight to Johannesburg and they are amazing. You turn on noise cancellation and you can still kind of hear the sound of the plane. But when you put on some music and turn up the volume, you can't even hear the plane. I'm not even over exaggerating. The quality is decent. Nice plastics are used. It is a little pricey but depending on who you are, totally worth it.

      Hi Hank,

      Awesome! Thank you so much for the 5-stars review and for sharing your amazing experience with our WH-1000XM4! We're really happy to hear you're satisfied with the excellent sound quality and overall performance of these headphones. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. To maximize noise canceling performance, the WH-1000XM4 headphones incorporate two technologies: Personal Noise Canceling Optimizer, designed specifically for you, and Atmospheric-Pressure Optimizing, designed for air travel. Also, check the Adaptive Sound Control settings on the Sony | Headphones Connect app. If Adaptive Sound Control is on, the effects of noise canceling may become weak.

Using the Sony Headphones Connect app, Ambient Sound Control lets you adjust the volume of background sound and gives you the option to allow voices alone to be heard.

    These are great headphones. The ears are soft and comfortable for long periods. The noise cancellation is great, as is the ability to switch back and forth. Over ear headphones get warm on my ears quickly, but I don’t think that can be helped.

      For your issue, having unusually dry skin can store static electricity in humans. A large amount of static electricity in the body and having contact with electrical devices at the same time can cause stress on the device and/or on your body. You can avoid this from happening by wearing clothing of natural materials that can't store static electricity.

      Thank you so much for choosing Sony!

    I really like these headphones. I've never worn or even tried any other noise-cancelling headphones so I don't know how they compare. However, I bought these for plane travel and have worn them on numerous flights, both short and very long, and they've fit the bill. They block out a lot of the annoying airplane engine noise as well as the ambient noise of other passengers on the plane. The sound quality is good and they are easy to set up and re-connect to my phone and tablet.
