    Nice headphones, excellent sound quality and noise canceling. Only complaint I have is to get them to recharge. When you plug in the charger It'll charge for 30 seconds and then quit. Sometimes it takes several tries to get them to stay charging. I've heard of several other people having the same issue with them

    New pair after the WH-CH700N. Noise Cancelling is just too amazing, put music on and you won't hear anything else but the music. Many cool features like automatically switching to ambient sound and analyzing your ears to optimize both the noise-canceling and the sound. Midnight Blue is a cool color too, looks like the iPhone 12's Pacific Blue.

    This is my first pair of high-end headphones and the first in a long time to have noise cancelling. Previously I had a pair of Sony MDR-XB950B1. There is really no comparing the XM4's to them. The only thing that was "better" with the 950's was the bass. But that was only if you were a fan of really fake "boomy" bass. Highly recommend these headphones.

    Well I’ve been a Bose customer over the years. After watching countless reviews I decided to give Sony a shot at my business. The richness of the sound for these headphones is flat out amazing with excellent noise canceling! I primarily use these when playing XBOX Series X and they work flawlessly Now go get yours and game on!

    I’ve been using these exclusively the past 11 months and they are great. Initially, I tried the AirPods Max, but they were too heavy and started to hurt my eyes. These have even better noise cancellation and I like that they can more easily fold up and fit into a bag.

      Hi Damien, good to know that you like the supplied case of the headphones. Your feedback about the cable and louder volume is greatly appreciated. Make sure to use the equalizer of the Sony Headphones Connect app to adjust the sound quality depending on your needs. This may help improve your listening experience. Updating the software (via the Sony Headphones Connect app) will also improve its overall performance. Thanks for sharing your review and for choosing Sony. ~Ralph Sony_US
