Great headphones!!!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for my father in law. It is harder for him to distinguish speaking in movies and this helps with isolation of the voices. He also enjoys his music, so the high res is a great buy.

Posted .Hello Junior,
Thank you for your comment! We’re delighted to hear that you’re enjoying the noise-canceling features and sound quality of your WH-1000XM4 headphones. We sincerely apologize for any difficulties you may have encountered with the microphone. Your feedback is invaluable to us, and we will utilize it to enhance our products.
To ensure optimal performance, please check if the headphone software is updated, if you haven't done so already. You can find the latest updates here:
https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/wireless-headphones-bluetooth-headphones/wh-1000xm4/downloads
Additionally, here are some steps that might assist with the microphone functionality:
- Reconnect the headset to your source device.
- Ensure that HFP or HSP is selected for the audio profile.
- If your app has microphone sensitivity settings, please check and adjust those as needed.
If the issue continues, we recommend testing the headphones with different audio devices to help identify the problem.
Please note that the Sidetone function allows you to hear your voice through the headset’s microphone. This means you may also hear ambient sounds or the headset's operational sounds, which is normal and not a malfunction.
