Best over hear headphones out there.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Watched a ton of reviews on The best over ear headphones. I even went into Best Buy and tried them on. The sound and comfort of these were slightly better than the competition, and were cheaper, especially compared to the apple maxs. The noise canceling is amazing too

WH-1000XM4
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome sound. Battery last super longer than i expected. After, 3 days of not using, still charge same %, bought when it was discounted. You have to tweak the sound equalizer according to your listening pleasure, to get the best personal output. Owned for about a month, so far, it’s great.

Best Ever
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased the Apple AirPod Max’s before these and hated them. Far too heavy, wouldn’t stay on my head and gave me headaches. These, however, are a dream! So comfortable, incredible audio, just a fantastic set of wireless headphones.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is one of the best headphones you can get right now, it is on the pricier side, which I should probably give 4 stars for. But the ANC and comfort and sound quality makes this an incredible purchase.

Real does a good job
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Never had sound cancellation headphones before. They were more than I wanted to spend, even on sale. But I am glad I did and wish I had got them years ago. These work well. Use them at gym, beach and even at home if watching something when I don’t want to bother anyone. Just about tunes everything out. My wife’s not crazy about that. ;-) Battery lifer is good but not great when compared to my previous Sony headphones. Not sure but maybe something to do with sound cancellation ?

XM4’s are awesome!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these headphones. The sound it great. I had to use the eq to clear up a few things, and the app was kinda buggy until recently. Overall great value, and you will not be disappointed. I miss some of the functionality because I have an iPhone, but overall I’m happy with them. They do get warm around the ears after about an hour or so for me, but I have yet to find a super comfortable over the ear headphone. Don’t like the touch controls, or the custom button.

Birthday Gift for Myself
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am in love I treated myself to these for my birthday. It was a richer clearer sound. A single charge lasts awhile. My only complaint would be I also have Samsung buds pro, and i like that when i start talking it lowers the sound and starts back playing soon unlike these that take longer.

Great sound and battery life
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound and battery life seems good even after over a year of daily use. Wish I would have gone up to next model where you can connect to 2 Bluetooth and switch between. Only complaints are that when charging and using 3.5mm jack there is some feedback, and the rest pieces didn't allow much breathing for long use.
