    Excellent sound cancelling head phones with some great features, such as being able to connect to two bluetooth devices at once and motion sensing sound adaptation. The sound quality is amazing. I bought these for both music and conference calls and I have found microphone is not that great for calls unless it is plugged in. Also, sound cancelling tends to make it difficult to hear your own voice, so I've noticed myself shouting when talking on the phone. Overall, they are great, but for the cost I was hoping for a more versatile head set.

    Pros - Good sound quality - Awesome noise cancellation (for the user). Meaning, I don’t hear surrounding noises when listening with this headphone Cons - Bad mic noise cancellation. Meaning, although the noise cancellation for me is good, the noise cancellation for outgoing signals from mic is bad. If I am in a noisy envt, I will not be disturbed by a single background noise. But the person I am talking to will hear all the background noise. I’d expect such costly headphones to cancel the noise from mic in such a way that the person on the other side will hear only my voice and not the noise in my side of the background.

      Hi Akash, thank you for your feedback. While we are glad that you like the sound quality and noise canceling function, we regret that the person on the other line can hear background noises when using the headphones for calls.

      Make sure to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app) for optimum performance.

      Depending on the surrounding environment, wind noise may increase when the Ambient Sound Mode is turned on. In that case, cancel the voice focus with the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app. If the wind noise is still significant, turn off the Ambient Sound Mode.

      For call quality, re-establish the connection between the headphones and your source device. Select HFP or HSP for the profile. You can also check the settings of the app that you are using for mic sensitivity if available.

      The WH-1000XM4 headphones offer further improvements to our industry-leading noise cancelation, exceptional sound quality, and smart listening that adjusts to your behavior and your location.

    Great noise cancelling. Mostly comfortable but for me I start to feel the weight on the top of my head after a while. Also with glasses it's inevitably a bit awkward. I have trouble getting the touch control to reliably play/pause. It's disappointing that the XM3 supported the aptX codec but these XM4 do not. There's a fancy LDAC codec that it supports, but only on Android, and not when you are using the multi-connection feature. Also for the price, it would be nice if you could use them as a USB headset when plugged in (I had a Bluetooth headset that could do that). I also wish the carrying case could fit them with the headband extended, since I have to readjust every time.
