I love these!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am ND and my kids are...loud. These are amazing. I absolutely love that I can adjust how much background noise comes through. They are soft and comfortable. One of the best purchases I have made. They are a little pricey - but so worth the money.

Great headphones! Just one problem..
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphones are of superior build quality. There is an issue that arises with extended use, or more specifically, extended use with too much pressure on the earcups. Earwax manages to penetrate all the way to the active noise cancellation chip, leading to an incredibly loud, annoying, and seemingly never-ending high pitched ring. The problem can be solved by taking apart the headset but it’s inconvenient. Apart from that, the ANC and audio quality are everything you could expect at this price point.

Posted .Hi Tony,
Thanks for taking the time to share such a detailed and thoughtful review of your WH-1000XM4 headphones. We're very happy to hear that you appreciate the superior build quality, audio performance, and noise cancellation.
We are sorry to hear about the specific issue you've experienced with the high-pitched ringing. We understand how frustrating and inconvenient this can be, and we truly appreciate you providing such a detailed description of the problem's cause. We do not recommend that customers take apart their headphones, as this can cause further damage and may void the warranty.
This type of issue can sometimes be caused by moisture or debris affecting the internal microphones used for noise cancellation. For an official solution, we recommend contacting our support team directly. They can provide you with the proper servicing options to ensure your headphones are restored to full performance while maintaining their integrity.

Highly recommend
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At one time I owned the Bose Sound Cancellers, this was a couple years back. I loved them, but I recently decided to make the switch to the Sony WH-1000XM4... WOW! These headphones are great, I wear them for hours throughout the day listening to lectures, or board review videos (medical student). Never have a problem with constant sweating. The quality is excellent, love that I can have two devices paired at the same time. Overall, would highly recommend these!

These are incredible
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hands down the best headphones I've ever purchased. I started using these on Christmas daily, and there is still 30%. I've put in over 19 hours worth. They power on and pair quickly. Most importantly, the sound Incredible. Especially if you have a service like Amazon Music where they support Dolby Atmos and 360 Sound. I've never looked forward to listening to music after such a long day. These do the trick and then some.

Great sound 4 your money
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great price and sound quality. My 3rd pair they last easily 1yr- 1 1/2yrs. Unfortunately my last pair stopped charging. Sony offers a good warranty, however I use them daily and couldn’t wait so I bought another pair.

Posted .Hi WiseShopper,
We are delighted you appreciate the great price and sound quality of the WH-1000XM4, and we truly value you choosing them for your third pair. We are sorry to hear your previous pair had a charging failure. Since you couldn't wait for a warranty claim, for future reference, charging issues can often be resolved by using a lower-wattage charger (like the port on a computer) or performing a soft reset by holding the power button while plugging the cable in. We hope your new pair provides you with many more years of excellent performance! Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

Former Bose, new Sony Fan!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased the 700 Bose headphones first, and while the sound was 'good', had too many issues with connections and with the Source List in the app not working when I needed it. Switched to the Sony headphones and couldn't be happier!! All my issues with Bose are nonexistent with the MX 4s. Longer battery, better sound (imo), better functionality with the controls since you have twice the surface area to work with... and the cheaper price is the icing on the cake!

Worth the money
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.With the price drop since the release of the XM5, these are a great value. Battery life was exactly as advertised, and maybe longer if not using bluetooth. Noise cancelling performance was great, although I don't have experience with the current XM5, so I can't compare.
