Good ANC + sound but uncomfortable
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They sound pretty good for the price point. Their main advantage, though is the noise cancelling. The only thing is, they're uncomfortable after wearing them for a little while. I would also not recommend this item if you need to switch smoothly between devices. You have to manually disconnect from the other device before you can use the other.

Sony done good!!
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sounds quality is great. Noise cancelling is also very good. Touch volume adjustments on the outer right earpiece are a little touchy. Volume level doesn’t get quite as loud as I would personally like, but at least it is distortion free. One of my favorite purchases nonetheless!

Rock solid noise cancelling and sound, but...
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.XM4 has amazing sound and its noise cancelling ability is unparalleled (I own bose 700 (weaker in sound) and B&W PX7 (weaker in noise cancelling)). The Sony iphone app also has a build-in equalizer. I bought this because of the ability to connect to two devices at once. This feature is a little buggy but I manage to get it to work with an iphone and ipad.

Posted .Hi Reviewer2018,
We're glad that you like the sound quality, battery life, comfort, and noise canceling function of the headphones. Your feedback about the multipoint function is greatly appreciated. Depending on the device, silent streaming can continue on the first device when the second device has a Bluetooth connection to the headphones. If this is the case, the headphones remain connected to the first device, and the audio doesn't switch to the second device.
Follow these steps to hear sound from the second device:
1. Open the Sony | Headphones Connect app, select the System tab, and make sure the Connect to 2 devices simultaneously option is set to ON.
2. Stop playback on the first connected device.
3. Close the audio (music) application on the first connected device.
