Sony mark 4
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my second time purchasing this product. I initially bought a pair for myself and decided to buy a pair for my wife, because she kept stealing mine! They’re that good. Highly recommend. I also opted to buy these even with the mark 6’s available, because these headphones are reliable and get the job done in so many ways!!

Posted .Hi RamseyS,
That is a wonderful compliment to the WH-1000XM4—so good you needed a second pair! It sounds like your wife has great taste!
It’s completely understandable why you chose the XM4s again. They truly are an incredibly reliable and high-performing pair of headphones, and many people appreciate their perfect balance of excellent noise cancellation, superior sound quality, and exceptional comfort for long listening sessions.
Enjoy your two pairs of fantastic, reliable headphones!

The Best Noise Canceling Headphones I Own
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had the WH-1000MX3 for about a year and a half and I can say that these WH-1000MX4 are not a huge leap from the previous model but still the best noise canceling headphone I own. It has a few new features from the previous model but if you can get the previous model on a good sale deal, then take it. These are great but wouldn't pass over the model 3 for them if I could get the model 3 at $250 or less because they are the same headphones with maybe a 10% difference. If both are the same price get the model 4 but if you can get a deal on the model 3, take it.

Best noise cancellation headphones for the price !
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphones were worth the price, as it has immense noise cancellation and noise adaptability. The audio is adjusted to the environment and its good with the fitting. The only issue is its swivel as it tends to break often.
