    A worthy successor to the WH-1000XM3

    Coming from the previous generation of these noise cancelling headphones (which I still use), these headphones are an excellent successor with good quality of life improvements even though it may not seem like it at first glance. I primarily purchased this due to the improvements to the camera and the addition of wear detection. Conferencing with these headphones is excellent and far clearer than the WH-1000XM3. Battery life is great! Lasts me through an entire day of constant use consisting of listening to music and conferencing.

    These are amazing ! the noise cancellation is to die for ! As soon as you put them on they cancel out the noise ! The best part is that it’s motion detection so you can move your hand to change it without any buttons

    Very good headphones!!! Mainly use these for watching movies with my iPad. ANC is great. Even without playing anything you sumerge yourself in total silence. Connection with 2 iOS devices is very seamless. I do also have AirPod pro which are better for certain occasions due to spacial audio. I have no test these Sony for video calls.

    These headphones deliver. Touted as the best NC phones, the XM4s did not disappoint. The freq response is wide (even wider if you run them wired) and the noise cancellation exceeded my expectations and my experience. While the Bose 700s are good, the XM4s are truly better. I did find them to be a little more brassy than the XM3s. My only disappointment was that the ear cushions are not thick enough to contain some of the higher volumes and someone sitting next to me can hear what I am listening to. But sound construction, wide freq response, full featured, phenom NC. What’s not to like?

    These are not fully noise cancelling, and expect to hear loud noises if you’re in a mildly loud environment like a coffee shop. But they’re comfortable and have great sound
