Its Sony... expect the best
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you can afford these, please go with them! Obviously, the sound is superb. The tap buttons on the side take some time to get used to but are convenient. The Headphones app provides great customizion. Lastly, the reason to go with this version rather than their latest ($399 headphones) is because these still fold and easily fit in your bag/backpack.

Nice sound. Avg noise cancellation.
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Posted .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.

Good sound quality, ok for calls.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.
