AMAZING headphones.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I LOVE these headphones. I use them for just about everything. The noice canceling is by FAR the best i have had. I can go walking next to traffic and not hear a single noice. I'vebeen on planes and couldn't even hear the planes taking off. If you need a pair of headphones to block out your kids or your nagging wife, these are for you. Block out the world abs just be with your intrusive thoughts with these headphones. I actively show people these headphones and have talked people to bordem about them. I try and get everyone I show them to to but a pair.

Amazing noise canceling and comfort
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are great at minimizing noise. I live where there is a lot of construction going on, traffic, and barking dogs. I put these on an instantly it cancels most of the noise, and once I put the music on I can only hear what I put on. They let you connect to two devices at a time, as long as you aren’t using the aux. They will turn themselves off if no music is playing long enough, unless the aux cable is connected. They are really good quality headphones, and the noise canceling is better than I expected. They feel amazing and I can wear them a few hours before they start to feel heavy. The sound quality is also top notch. The main problems are that sometimes it’s difficult to connect to certain Bluetooth devices, and the other problem is the battery will keep draining if you leave the aux cable in. In my opinion the free trial to the service they offer is not worth it, and it was a little difficult cancelling the service, I do not recommend the 3D sound stuff, it doesn’t make much a difference anyway and it’s only a couple hundred songs that offer it.

WH-1000XM4 Review
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Impeccable quality. I was hearing musical textures in songs I've listened to for years for the first time. The only negative thing I have to say about it is how sensitive the touch pad is. I'm always accidently hanging up.

Posted .Hi User144668,
We feel privileged to know that our headphones have allowed you to rediscover your favorite songs by revealing musical textures you hadn't noticed before. We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding the sensitivity of the touch sensor; if you find it a bit too reactive for your style, you can actually disable the "Touch Sensor Control Panel" within the Sony Headphones Connect app to prevent those accidental hang-ups.
Thank you for trusting Sony and making us a part of your daily listening.
Regards,
Dominick

Comfortable, clear sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had a lot of Sony products and they are generally good. These are no exception and I love it that they have great sound and are comfortable, so can be worn for long stretches. They seldom lose connection but when they do, they connect back quickly. No complaints.

Great headset
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound is incredible...I did upgrade from the XM2 version, and this one has better noise cancelling and a later version charging cable. It is a little lighter on my head, so I don't feel it at all. The bass response is much better too, doesn't distort so fast like the other one did. I'm a fan.
