Best noise canceling on the market
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Previously owned the M3 version but my girlfriend started using them and didn’t want to give them back. Met her half way on the price and picked up the newer version M4 in blue for myself. Loved my M3’s and love my M4’s just as much. Highly recommended if you want some of the best sound and noise canceling available. You won’t be disappointed!

Excellent Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased as birthday gift for my son. I put them on at the store to try out the noise cancelling feature and was blown away with how incredibly quiet it was with them on! Especially compared to a busy loud store like Beat Buy. They are great quality craftsmanship and sound. Not one regret on this purchase!!

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good headphones. Sound quality is good, good bass. But minus one star because it does get hot after wearing it for more than an hour.

Worth every Penny
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Originally I wanted the previous version of these but I’m glad I splurged on the newer model. Sound quality is what I expected and the noise cancelling is the best I’ve experienced. The only issue I run into is that my devices will randomly disconnect once and I’ll have to reconnect. After that there aren’t any issues. Love these either way.

Sony XM4's

Pretty Good Headphones with Slight Problem
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We are currentlt using the headset via Bluetooth on a PC. The sound is great but the microphone interferes with sound when used. Example, if I use the headset just as music device (ex headphones) it works great. When using the mic (ex. headset) the sounds becomes less clear. We have resolved this issue by using an external mic. The headphones are pretty easy to use with computer (except for stated issue above) and cellphone. BTW, the sound proofing is great. I would recommend these headphones based on just that.

Perfect gift
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased as a Christmas gift for my husband who loves his sports and old rock and roll music. Now I can enjoy reading or watching something on TV without being annoyed. The noise cancellation for him is superb! He could not hear the noise from laundry room nor the TV while listening to music! So this turned out to be a gift to both of us.
