    A worthy successor to the WH-1000XM3

    Coming from the previous generation of these noise cancelling headphones (which I still use), these headphones are an excellent successor with good quality of life improvements even though it may not seem like it at first glance. I primarily purchased this due to the improvements to the camera and the addition of wear detection. Conferencing with these headphones is excellent and far clearer than the WH-1000XM3. Battery life is great! Lasts me through an entire day of constant use consisting of listening to music and conferencing.

    I was looking for a good set of over ear headphones to use for Zoom and Microsoft Teams meetings and these headphones have been a total gamechanger. The sound is clear and so is my mic. Being able to connect to multiple sources has also been great, I can listen to podcasts and music on my iPhone and seamlessly swap to video conferences on my laptop, didn’t know what I was missing

    These Headphones are great! Switching connection from one device to another is very easy and happens very quickly. The noise canceling is also amazing, with music playing, you won’t hear anything from the outside. The sound quality is great, I love that you can customize the sound through the app, for example, if you want a higher or lower bass, it’s easy to customize. I would recommend!

    I would definitely recommend these headphones espicially for the gym. They are sweat resistance and easy to clean. Once a month cleaning the leather part of the headphones will do it for the headphone. Wiping them down after every session of the gym, will get rid of the ordo and stains. AWESOME SOUND QUALITY AND GREAT NOISE CANCELLING. It does havea sensor on the left of the headphone to sense detect when the headphone are off of the head.
