They are great
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They bang. The sound quality is amazing and the app that you use it with, is pretty easy to learn and customize, your style. My only grip is the material its made with, the cushions aren't my favorite. They are comfortable but they feel a bit cheap idk, but i recommend it

Sony Headphones review
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the headphones as a Christmas present for my son. He didn't waste anytime using them with both his IPhone and laptop. The headphones are lighter and have better padding than the headphones he replaced. We are going on day 7 and have not recharged the battery yet.

Posted .Hi Javier,
Many thanks for the 5-star rating! We're glad to hear you like the superb sound and noise canceling features of your WH1000XM4 headphones. Bluetooth communications may be disabled, or noise or audio dropout may occur under the following conditions:
When there is a human body between the headset and the Bluetooth device
In this case, put the Bluetooth device in the same direction as the antenna of the headset to improve the Bluetooth communications.
When there is an obstacle, such as metal or a wall, between the headset and the Bluetooth device
In places with wireless LAN, where a microwave oven is used, electromagnetic waves are generated, etc.
Where there are other wireless communication audio devices or other people nearby, such as in train station premises or on a crowded train.

Sound block and clarity are great.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Can hear parts of the music I didn’t even know were there before. Such clarity. But the best part is the noise cancelling. I struggle with hearing when there is background noise but these guys I can block all that out and hear what I want.

The sound is amazing, but the noise canceling is what makes this headphones GREAT! I highly recommend this, especially for students.

Best noise.cancellation I’ve seen (heard)
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Phenomenal noise canceling, especially on constant background noise like jet engines in flight. Sony includes a decent case, headphone cable, and airline adapter for that as well. But even in everyday life they sound great and block a ton of unwanted noise.
