Sony - WH1000SM4
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Previously purchased Sony - WH1000XM3 for work and airplane traveling which worked well. Recent purchase of Sony - WH1000XM4 is a nice upgrade. When the new headphones are on noise cancelling is impressive I barely hear surrounding environment. Audio is crisp and dynamic even when conversations are happening around me.

Blocks Loud Roommate Within 5 Feet
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I originally purchased this headphones to deal with an annoyingly, loud roommate, and let me tell you, this product has provided me hours of undisrupted nap times in the middle of my hectic weeks. Had I not gotten these, I would have been left with my hair balding from the amount of stress built up from living with an inconsiderate roommate. The noise cancelling is immaculate and the padding is so comfortable.

Great headphones, stellar noise cancellation.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones sound great and the sound-cancelling is incredible. I forgot to bring these on a flight and definitely missed them. They are also great for an office environment, if you need to focus and get work done. The microphones are okay for the type of device, but certainly don't replace a headset with a proper microphone arm.

I recommend getting them
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Over a year later and all i have to complain about is that i cant replace the earmuffs because itll cost me around 100 dollars to keep noice canceling. They became pretty flat around 3 months after i git them, but i wore them like 24/7. I dont regret getting them though. I sometimes go all week without having to charge them.

I never like going out but with the headphone and music on, it’s awesome! My workout is so regular with this, can’t take it off my ears lol.So perfect to keep my surrounding aware and definitely the quality of music is so good!! The touch controls never want me to reach for my phone to change music or to control sound. It’s a Must have!!

Great. Room for improvement
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good headphones. Pros. 1. Can switch automatically from phone to laptop making it great for work 2. Noise cancellation is great 3. Nice humble look that looks good anywhere 4. Automatically pauses when you speak if you want 5. You can put your hand on the headphones to have a conversation without removing the headphones. 6. Great case design Cons 1. Auto switch between phone and laptop is not refined and will interrupt a teams meeting if you get a call on your phone. (There may be a setting I am not aware of to stop this) 2. If you have it set to pause when you speak, it can mistake other noises and pauses at random. If you are in a loud environment or tend to think out loud this setting should be turned off 3. The can be uncomfortable after long periods of time. 4.

For my use case
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use outside primarily, it takes me hours to cut grass on a tractor and these are a lifesaver. I also had the MX3s, but the LDAC support makes these stand out for me. The notice cancellation blocks out my tractor or blower effectively, would not be caught without it. I did not expect them to provide the best audio quality but their configurable flexibility makes them decent. I have other headphones and amps I use for audiophile-level audio quality, but these are perfect for what I use them for.
