Sony has always been my favorite when it came to bass, and these didn’t let me down at all! The work seamlessly with my iPhone and computer! I was going to get another headset for my laptop, but I don’t need ot with these!

Worth the money
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great set of Headphones. I prefer these over the Beats over the ear studio because they're much lighter. Way more comfortable to wear. I wish they were wireless with the new PS5 but hopefully they'll come out with an update that allows them to. The Best Buy exclusive navy color is gorgeous.

Posted .Hi ShohelA!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us! It is fantastic to know that you’re finding your WH-1000XM4s to be a good set of headphones.
We appreciate the honest feedback regarding the noise cancellation levels, as it helps us keep improving.
To boost the noise canceling on your WH-1000XM4, here are a few simple things you can try:
-Check the Sony | Sound Connect app: Make sure Adaptive Sound Control is turned off. If it's on, the headphones might be switching to "Ambient Sound" mode because they think you're walking or waiting, which lets outside noise in.
-Double check that the ear pads are sitting flush against your head. If there’s even a small gap, the noise canceling won't be able to do its job properly.
Thanks for choosing Sony and sharing your feedback!
Best regards,
Estefany

Soooo good!!!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise cancellation on these are absolutely amazing!! Once I have these on I focus increases like crazy. The only down side is you can’t really talk on the phone if they’re connected, you sound very muffled but that’s a given

Even better than the XM3s!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Almost identical design to the previous generation (apparently the foam on the ears is a little bigger?) but they have a few new features that warranted the upgrade for me. As with the XM3s, amazing sound, comfort, and noise cancelation.

They sound great and are comfortable to wear and how convenient to use. I didn't like the sony app for these so much but once set up I don't really use it anymore. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone.

Excellent headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We got these headphones as most reviews posted showed them as one of the best noise canceling headphones around. The headphones don’t disappoint. They cancel background noise very well, the sound is really good with punchy bass, and the battery lasts. I’m glad they use usb type c which is the new norm. There’s also a companion app that adds features and is very convenient. All in all I am very satisfied with this purchase and highly recommend.

Great Headset
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great head set. The noise canceling is pretty amazing. Got it for my work from home office. Being able to connect to two devices at once is great. The mic could be a bit better, but works sufficiently well. Battery life is plenty sufficient. Got it on Black Friday sale, so price was reasonable. I only wish there was a mute button on the headset, which is the only reason I gave it 4 stars.
