One of the best noise canceling headphones out!
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comfortable, great noise canceling, fits over ears perfectly, convenient design to fold up in carrying case, pairs easily with any app or device, good base. One thing to note: outside of the Sony headphones app, you can also adjust the settings in your actual phones settings. Took a minute to figure out, but it makes a huge difference when you learn how to do that as well.

They're not good enough.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After using these headphones along with Beats Studio, Wh- 910n, these headphones are overhyped, overpriced, but over performed. I like the comfort which over did the Beats Studio. They're aesthetically pleasing like Beats. The noise cancelling over performed. Compared to the Cases for each of the headphones, the XM-4s have a cuter and more protective case. The only problems that I have had with the XM-4s is that they're hard to connect to any of my Apple devices, and they randomly disconnect and turn off out of nowhere which is neither rare or common. But compared to the expensive Air Pods Pro Max from Apple, these have way better sound quality and more minimalistic with swipe on the right side of the Headphones, you can access ambient sound, pause, play, and play your next song. Compared to the wh- 910n, it is hard to turn on Siri by just touching the pad of your right cup which the wh-910, It is more worth getting the WH- 910 which are 100 dollars less but sacrifice the aesthetic for the better quality, and better base.
