Impressive Headphones
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise cancellation is next level. I can completely tune out the world when I need to focus or just enjoy peace and quiet. It works beautifully in noisy environments like airports, coffee shops, or even at home when things get busy.

I prefer Sony WH-1000XM4 over the others
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Simply the best noise cancelling headphones I have tried. Better than Bose or Beats at the same price level. These are comfortable. The mic is great for calls and zoom sessions. Then, when you need music the sound and clarity are the best without being overly base thumpy. The case is great too.

Excellent headphones - def recommend
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are reviewed as one of the market's best, so I had pretty high expectations. They're comfortable to wear, sound great, and look good. I would definitely recommend them. My only complaint is the passive noise cancellation works so well that it makes my ears warm.

Another great product from Sony
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My favorite headphones, yet I will say that the touch controls are a bit finnicky at times, so I have them disabled. Other than this minor point, the sound quality and the noise-canceling are rivaled by few. The color is also a nice matte finish that is neutral enough to not stand out. These come with a carrying case and pack down well enough to travel with. I recommend wearing them around your neck though!

Like this new headphones over Bose
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I already owned one Bose QuietComfort 35 II wireless Bluetooth headphones. The sound is great, but it can't cover my ears fully which makes the noise cancellation function less effective. I tried the new Sony WH-1000XM4 at a local Best Buy store and really like the comfort and sound quality. : )

Good listening
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely love the sound on these. My only issue is the slide when I work out but to be honest I have that figured out. The bass boost feature on these gives just the right amount. Sound is crisp and clean. Better than my AirPods.
