Great for music and below average for calls
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great for noice cancellation. Good music quality. But below average on call quality. Even a 10$ off brand Bluetooth headset performs bette on calls. Switching between mobile and pc is hit or miss. Pc holds the Bluetooth connection for ever so only option is to disable Bluetooth in pc to proceed. Still a 4 star because it’s worth it for the noice cancellation and music quality.

Posted .Hi Venkat,
We're glad that you like the music quality and noise canceling function of the headphones. Your feedback about the call quality and multipoint function is greatly appreciated. Make sure to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app) for optimum performance.
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.
Hope this helps. Thanks for sharing your review and for choosing Sony.

Best ANC around.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones have one of the best ANC out there. I have had a few different brands that offer noise canceling but don’t do the same as these do. Would recommend if you are in the budget to shop for ANC headphones at this price range.

Great Quality Headphones but...
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I liked these at first, but they did not compare to another brand I purchased. I did not like having to use an app to have the control settings. The other brand I purchased is able to work seamlessly without the app. They are great-quality headphones but did not like the user interface.

Posted .Hi Techie2o11, Thank you for choosing Sony. While we are glad to hear that you are happy with your new WH-1000XM4 headphones, we are sorry to hear that it did not meet all of your expectations. You can use the headphones even without the application installed on your Bluetooth device. The Sony Headphones connect app will allow you to change the settings of the WH-1000XM4 and these settings will remain even if the headphones disconnects or pairs to another device. The settings will only revert back to default when the headphones are initialized back to factory default. I hope this helps and thank you so much for your feedback.

Mostly Very Good.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent product deserving of all the good reviews. One of the two most comfortable available, especially compared to Dr Beats. Most so-called over the ear headphones seem to be more on the ear than not with thin. hard headbands. These definitely fit well. Not brilliant for Apple users unless you're using only one device.
