Excellent Quality Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am very pleased with these headphones. The noise-canceling is superb. They are easy to set up and use. The sound quality is amazing. I like that they come with a physical cord for those times when you don’t have wi-fi capability. These are definitely worth the price.

Good
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Although I enjoy the headphones quite a bit, there are some underlying issues. Connectivity is one of these issues. There’s a feature on the headphones where after a certain amount of time, the headphones turn off. Whenever I turn them back on, they work fine for a bit before suddenly disconnecting. This continues to happen until I either forget the headphones or I reset my phone.

Posted .Hi EricaM,
We appreciate you acknowledging the top-notch sound quality of the WH-1000XM4 headphones! We are sorry to hear they did not provide the necessary stability for your runs, as they are primarily designed for stable use during travel and daily commuting rather than vigorous athletic activity. For activities like running, we recommend considering one of our true wireless earbud models, such as the LinkBuds Fit, which are engineered with secure-fit wing tips and an IPX4 splashproof rating to ensure they stay comfortably and securely in place during movement.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

Strikingly good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good noise cancelation. I use them mostly around the house while cooking. It cuts out the fan noise extremely well. Controls are easy once learned. I did read the manual. I am not using most of the app functions because they are not useful for my use case

The best over ear headphones.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are the best pair of headphones I've ever used. Sound is fantastic. The noise canceling is unbelievable. Got people yelling around you? Boom no problem put these bad boys on and you can't hear anything but your music or podcast. Do yourself a favor and buy these.
