Solid pair of headphones!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones for the reduced price. Audio quality is solid and the Bluetooth has been very handy while traveling. Took a little time to get used to compared to open ear. Battery life is a little less than expected with certain settings enabled.

Posted .Thank you for sharing your detailed review, TobinD!
We are pleased to hear that you found the WH-1000XM4 headphones to be a great value at the reduced price and that you are enjoying the solid audio quality and very handy Bluetooth feature while traveling.
We understand that switching from open-ear headphones requires a slight adjustment, and we appreciate you giving yourself time to get used to the sealed fit. We also acknowledge your feedback regarding the battery life being a little less than expected when certain features (like full ANC or certain codecs) are enabled; performance can vary based on usage settings.
We are glad the XM4s are serving you well on the go!
Thank you for choosing Sony!

WH-1000XM4 Review
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Impeccable quality. I was hearing musical textures in songs I've listened to for years for the first time. The only negative thing I have to say about it is how sensitive the touch pad is. I'm always accidently hanging up.

Posted .Hi User144668,
We feel privileged to know that our headphones have allowed you to rediscover your favorite songs by revealing musical textures you hadn't noticed before. We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding the sensitivity of the touch sensor; if you find it a bit too reactive for your style, you can actually disable the "Touch Sensor Control Panel" within the Sony Headphones Connect app to prevent those accidental hang-ups.
Thank you for trusting Sony and making us a part of your daily listening.
Regards,
Dominick

Quality Product.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones have many merits: They sound great using Blue Tooth. They are comfortable and easy to used. Their noise cancelling works well. I need to live with them to make further evaluation. Best Buy matched the Amazon Prime Day price with a faster delivery date. I also got a small rewards discount.

Roku soundbar & LG TV
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the sound quality. They hook up easily to my Roku soundbar and LG tv. My complaint is that they do not easily switch from tv to phone if I get a call while watching. Very disappointing feature but I basically use them for my tv so it isn’t a dealbreaker.

No real drawbacks
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only possible drawbacks to this are price (fair but they are not cheap) or wondering how to replace the ear pads. They sound fantastic and the noise canceling is so good I can take a nap at my desk while my kids play Minecraft on the TV :-). I use them for everything from YouTube to CyberPunk and recommend them highly.

Another winning headset from SONY
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.An exceptional set of headphones. A lot of automation and sound tailoring possible with the Sony application. They are very comfortable and the noise cancelling is A+. I felt that I had to custom set many of the features to work well for my usage, but kudos to Sony for having that level of customization in their application.
