WH 1000XM4
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the best sounding wireless (some wired headphones do sound better) but the advantage of connecting to two different devices and seamlessly switching from one to the other it’s great. Quality seems to be very high as well. Also some of the best noise canceling I’ve had.

Silence is golden.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the sound cancelling! Totally masks noisy appliances and random household noise. I selected this product on the advice of a Geek Squad guy at the Dublin store. Trustworthy advice. Thanks Man! I chose sound quality over heavy bass sound quality of a similar model.

Add to your entertainment
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is amazing. I have gone out of my way to use my headphones throughout the day just so I can sit back and enjoy how immersive the headphones are. Once the wife sees them on me there’s no chance any words she’s speaking to me will get thru! she’s completely blocked out. A plus!

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.

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

Posted .Hi CesarT,
Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the WH1000XM4. We're glad that you like the sound quality and noise canceling function of the headphones. It's unfortunate that you are experiencing connectivity issues.
For optimum performance, make sure to update the software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app). You may also find these steps helpful:
-Set the headset to “Priority on stable connection” mode using the Sony Headphones Connect app.
-Remove any obstacles between the antenna of the connecting Bluetooth device and the built-in antenna of the headset.
-Bluetooth communications may be disabled, or noise or audio dropout may occur under the following conditions:
>When there is a human body between the headset and the Bluetooth device. In this case, put the Bluetooth device in the same direction as the antenna of the headset to improve the Bluetooth communications.
>When there is an obstacle, such as metal or a wall, between the headset and the Bluetooth device.
>In places with wireless LAN, where a microwave oven is used, electromagnetic waves are generated, etc.
>Where there are other wireless communication audio devices or other people nearby, such as in train station premises or on a crowded train.
Additional troubleshooting steps are available on this link:
https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm4/v1/en/contents/TP0002752755.html
Resetting and initializing the headset may also help resolve those issues:
Resetting the headset
-Press both the (power) button and the CUSTOM button simultaneously while charging. The headset will be reset. The device registration (pairing) information is not deleted.
If the headset does not operate correctly even after resetting, initialize the headset to restore factory settings.
Initializing the headset
-Turn off the headset while the USB Type-C cable is disconnected and then press and hold the (power) button and the CUSTOM button simultaneously for 7 seconds or more. The indicator (blue) flashes 4 times, and the headset is initialized. This operation resets volume settings, etc. to the factory settings, and deletes all pairing information. In this case, delete the pairing information for the headset from the device and then pair them again.
Hope this helps. If still not resolved or you need further assistance, please email the below information to socialsupport@am.sony.com.
