    Great at noise cancelling but within a couple months it wouldn’t charge. Had the warranty with beat buy that was $90 on a $350 headphone set. They would swap it out but wanted another $90 for a new warranty. What a bad warranty, makes me not want to shop at beat buy anymore, certainly won’t be using their warranty. They know it’s junk and price accordingly. Had to purchase their with the money I got back but will avoid after that

    For almost $400 I expected a bit more. The noise canceling is amazing don’t get me wrong, however; it’s not out of this world. I also found these headphones lacking bass. Overall, I don’t think it’s a major upgrade from the previous WH-1000XM3’s, unless you really need and love the extra new features I don’t see a necessary reason to upgrade. Older headphones like Bose QC35 ll and XM3’s do the job merely the same and they are cheaper.

    touch controls were useless, it didnt respond to the gestures 95% of the time. The audio upscaling is nice but overall volume was way too low even after extensive EQ adjustments. No way these are worth $300! My pair of $80 700Ns are better so I sent these back the same day they arrived
