Worth the price, still wait for a sale.
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well, this is a premium set of headphones. And it definitely delivers. Noise cancelling is great, comfort is great, and sound is amazing. Very convenient having multiple devices on Bluetooth. The cost is high, so you may want to hold out for a sale, but they’re a good pair of headphones.

Great Cans
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones. The sound is great although not the best bass. They are so comfortable I can wear them for hours without feeling pressure on my ears. I really like the easy controls for skipping tracks or replaying ones I especially like. Raising or lowering volume is a snap. Of course not struggling with a cord is nice. I highly recommend.

Great noise canceling!
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones. The noise canceling is really great, I have young children and my one kid has a squeal that will split your ear drums. I put these babies on and tho I can still hear his squeal that rivals Mariah Carey’s highest octave range, it’s so much more bearable! Aside from that, the Sony app that comes with it is pretty cool I like to use it to change some settings. I think there’s definitely some quirks to it but overall great noise canceling comfortable and light headphones I highly recommend.

Awesome, but too big
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound on these as well as comfort is 10/10, so great. However, I tend to have a big head, seriously, and these are still too loose even on the tightest setting. So I cannot wear them out and about to to do much movement which hugely takes away from why I bought them.

9/10 if you ask me
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are probably the best headphones i’ve bought. Personally, I love how you can customize the sound and the bass when listening to music. It’s like like I can hear each instrument while also being able to hear the song. Only thing I don’t like is that I can’t connect them to my PS5 via bluetooth, using the cord can be annoying at times.

Great Noise Cancelling Headphone.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great noise cancelling headphones that didn't produce any pressure like other ones I have used so I'm able to wear them for extended hours. I also like the added feature of the software so you can tailor the sound to how you like it. I found pairing the headphones with multiple devices easy and worked without issue.

Awesome headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m not a headphone enthusiast by any means, but these headphones have been well worth the purchase to me! I mainly use them at school, and the noise cancelling feature is great when I really need to focus on an assignment. The equalizer feature on the companion app is nice because you can adjust the sound exactly as you like it. It might be better to wait until they’re on sale if you’re on the fence about getting them, but I personally love and recommend them!!!

Amazingly Amazing Sounding Headphones!!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are all they're cracked up to be on the amazing reviews online! Sony has the corner on the market with over the ear headphones in my opinion. I've had some Sony wired MDRV-6 headphones for decades and they're still making them as they're one of the most venerable pair on the market still today, running around 4 Bills to get them. These Sony-WH-1000XM4's are no slouch for Wireless Headphones! I'm truly amazed with the spatiality, accuracy, and noise-cancelling qualities of these headphones. When you add in the Sony 360 Reality recordings it's truly going to take you to a whole different level. Wanna feel like you're in the studio and looking in different directions for each musician... that's what 360 is about. Very much like a live performance. I'm using TIDAL for my online music choice after reading many reviews about different services. I'm TOTALLY happy with their quality as it never fails to amaze me with their sound and they offer the Sony 360 music too! I'm sold on these, and the only headsets that compare are my wired Sony MDRV-6's. I don't like to buy things twice as I like to get what I want the first time, and I'm very happy. You might pay a pretty penny for these, but they're worth every hard earned penny you spend!
