||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First pair of cans since 1972. Those were great wired headphones from Koss. Well, these are very different to say the least. And they are excellent. I'm no audiophile, no question. But love my jams regardless. Light, comfortable, easy to use. Sound is rich, full and clean. The Active Noise Cancellation comes in handy when daughters, granddaughters and dogs come over. I'm keeping them.

Best wireless headphones money can buy.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After months of watching YouTube reviews videos I finally pulled the plug and purchased them. Not a regret in the world…they’re just as good as the reviews claimed. They feel great on the head and sound awesome. The noise cancelling is the best I’ve had in a pair of headphones. Going to enjoy these on my flight to Hawaii in a couple weeks.

These are the best headphones I've ever had. Battery life is better than I've had, wear them at night for 6-7 hours and battery usage has only gone down from 100% to 80%. Sound is outstanding.

Best headphones I've ever owned
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've owned several different pairs of headphones from several different manufacturers, and these are by far my favorite. My last set was actually a pair of Sony wh- xb900n's, which I liked but wasn't blown away by. These blow them away. I like the fit of the XB's a bit more, but these aren't uncomfortable at all. The sound paired with the noise-reduction makes buying these a no-brainer.

Excellent Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These Sony headphones are amazing! The headphones are designed to be both comfortable and stylish. The sound quality is impeccable. The only con I would like to point out is that sometimes the headphones will automatically connect to other devices they have been paired with and will refuse to connect to my current device without holding down the bluetooth button and pairing again.

Posted .Hi hellocorky,
Thank you for an amazing review! We're glad to hear that you like the comfortable fit, stylish design and great sound quality of the WH1000XM4. We're sorry to hear that you are having issues with Bluetooth communication on the headphones. If you touch an NFC-compatible smartphone to the headset while the headset is connected to another Bluetooth device, the connection switches to the smartphone (One-touch connection switching). However, the connection cannot be switched when talking on a headset connected to a Bluetooth-compatible mobile phone.
When an NFC-compatible smartphone is connected to the headset, if the smartphone is touched by another NFC-compatible Bluetooth headset or Bluetooth speaker, the smartphone is disconnected from the headset and connected to the Bluetooth device.

XM3 to XM4
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I still love the WH1000XM3. I think they are just as good as the XM4. XM4 has different features. I really did not notice more noise cancelling than others stated. These are super comfortable. I wear them when I sleep sometimes, as the noise in the city can be overwhelming. Great price for the quality. My XM3 lasted for ever and are still great!!

Great product, had to get it a second time.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.great quality that matches the price, had to get a second pair due to my first ones going through the ringer of 3 years of sweat and abuse. great for working out and just listening to music or movies. Gives more detail in the tones an vocals along with decent bass, all of which can be altered in the app that is supported by the headphones.

Top notch for sound, comfort and noise canceling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these headphones. Bought them because I was going to be flying for 10 hours and I lost one of my air pods pro. The noise cancellation is excellent. Didn’t hear the airplane engines and I was sitting by the wing. They were comfortable on my ears. Love the app you can download because it includes an equalizer you can adjust for didn’t music genres. Overall happy with my purchase.
