Good cans. They gave me a headache...
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sony XM4's have great sound. I compared them with the Bose Q45s to see which sounded better and most comfortable. The XM4s sound was ok. It didn't blow my socks off. I think sound is subjective. Comfort-wise, the Sony's gave me a headache. I could not wear them all day when focusing when I am WFH. Too much squeeze on my head. Many reviews say that the XM4s are some of the best on the market. (I didn't try the XM5 because I want folding headphones.) However, I preferred the lighter, smaller profile Q45s over the heavier XMs. ANC was about equal. I also tried the new Beats Studio Pro that recently came out. I loved the sound. They were NOT comfortable. So.... the XM4 are good cans. I liked them. However, I prefer my Q45s. I forget they are on my head.

||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.By far the best noise canceling headset for the money. I got mine on sale and it is just great! I will say the only annoying part is having to download the Sony app to pair it to my phone. Other than that I am pleased with it!

Best headphones I’ve owned
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The features of these headphones are better than previous models and competitors brands. Especially the battery life is far better than I’ve ever expected. The distance from your phone and have a clear connection is amazing too.

Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Noise cancellation is great, audio adjustments are just perfect. pads are somewhat okay, wish it was a bit more comfy but i hardly use these only when I truly have enough time for some time to myself. It's worth the price for me :)

The hype is somewhat right.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound is great. It is. Im not a radiohead to speak on highs and lows. All I know is when I put on my cans, I want it to sound clear and thump where it suppose to thump. Saying that, I feel these squeeze just a bit too much for me on the head. Also, singing along to the song would sometimes cause the music to stop. I ended up taking them back and getting the Bose 700s.
