True noise canceling
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After trying on all the noise canceling wireless headphones Best Buy had on display, I have bought my 4th pair of these Sony headphones. They are just a higher quality than others, including some of their own products.

10/10 gang
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.10/10, gives me my peace. After a long day of work, it silences all the extra noise so I can focus on my 5-9 after my 9-5.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My daughter wanted one and then I bought one about a week later. Yes they are expensive hence why the best buy credit card came in handy. I have always been a Bose kinda girl and never even tried Sony. EVER! I am not even a fan of the look but I am taking continuing education at the college and I like to study in the campus center and that place is so loud. The students are always yelling and while the amount of people help me stay focused the noise does not. These headphones are amazing they knock out all the noise. The really fun part is when you go to talk the music stops and you can hear the other people without having to remove them

Amazing Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound. App is amazing. Only thing is that the pads get greasy a little easily but that isn't a deal breaker. The EQ is amazing once you fine tune to your liking. Also comes with 3.5mm cord as well as an airplane adapter, which is great.

Fantastic Noise-Cancelling Headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A great product and a great deal from Best Buy with convenient delivery. Product arrive exactly when it said it would. The noise-cancelling head phones work perfectly for my husband's needs. Perhaps they work too well as he can't hear me anymore. :)

Posted .Hi user327825,
We are thrilled that your WH-1000XM4 headphones arrived on time and are working perfectly for your husband! It sounds like the noise cancellation is definitely living up to its reputation. If you ever need to get his attention without him taking the headphones off, he can simply cover the entire right earcup with his hand to activate "Quick Attention Mode," which instantly turns the music down and lets ambient sound in. He can also enable the Speak-to-Chat feature in the Sony Sound Connect app, which will automatically pause his music the moment he starts talking to you. Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

The King of over-the ear Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best over the ear headphones money can buy. They're light, they fit well, your ears and head don't get sore after extended use, and the sound quality is above and beyond what beats or Apple can provide. The only comparable brand is Bose, and you would be paying another $100-$200 for similar audio quality.

Go get one already!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My favorite headphones to date. Super comfortable and the sound quality is excellent. The noise canceling feature is next level and the fact that I can be connected to two devices at the same time and not have to manually switch back and forth between devices is pretty cool. Highly recommended.

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.

Comfortable and great sound.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Headphone was very comfortable. I wore it while sleeping on a 5 hour flight and had no issues. The sound quality is great, watching movies and listening to music was a game changer for me. $350 is worth the price but is understandably expensive for most. If you ever see this on sale be sure to pick it up.

Comfortable and the noise cancelling feature is really, really good; I wear these all day at work as the ability to pair to 2 devices simultaneously is a game changer.

Pretty Good
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like these headphones a lot. Pretty comfortable and light. Nice features and noise cancellation. They do not feel expensive but function like they are. I liked them enough to buy me and my brother a pair. The black pair is low key but the midnight blue pair adds a little touch of color but both are still subtle.
