Great sounding though a bit pricey
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best sound I've heard from headphones when direct wired. Haven't tried the bluetooth yet (assuming it won't be as good). Sound canceling works well. Haven't been able to get the mute effect to work when someone speaks to me (place hand on right earphone).

Posted .Hi docspruill, we're glad you like the sound quality of our product. Intelligent and intuitive, the WH-1000XM4 headphones offer further improvements to our industry-leading noise cancelation, exceptional sound quality, and smart listening that adjusts to your behavior and your location. Using the Sony Headphones Connect app, Ambient Sound Control lets you adjust the volume of background sound and gives you the option to allow voices alone to be heard. For total convenience, WH-1000XM4 headphones can be paired with two Bluetooth devices at the same time. So when a call comes in, your headphones know which device is ringing and connect to the right one automatically. You'll also be able to quickly, smoothly switch your headphones to either of the two devices at the touch of a button. Thanks for choosing Sony. ~Earl

Best Purchase ever!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Looked all over for replacement headphones for autistic son who has a larger head. These are awesome! He loves the noise cancelling capability and we love that he just has to cover one ear to hear us when we are talking to him reducing the number of times he is pulling the headphones on and off.

The King of Noise Cancelling
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are in a class of its own. I read a lot of hype about these and decided to finally get them. I'm glad I made the move to get them. Syncing up to two devices at once is perfect for my job. Also the Noise canceling puts you in your own little world. The Midnight blue is beautiful by the way.

Great headphone!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This cancels a lot of noise. Like when my wife asks me to do the dishes I don’t have to because these Sony’s cancelled it out. It’s like, if school is cancelled I’m not going to chemistry class. Just like when I can’t hear the request for dishes to be done. Buy these. Never do dishes again.

Sony Xm4 review
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This headset feels like an overall streamlined version of its predecessor, the Sony Xm3. This headset has very good sound quality along with very high quality noise cancelation. Overall, I enjoy its uses on commuted on public transit or just listening at home. For the price, I see it as more of a novelty and luxury than necessity. If you have the extra dollars and are looking for a nice headset, I'd definitely recommend however.

Only seem to have passthrough. No mic for talk. Latency is too high for video games. OK for movies. Perfectly fine for music. Depending on what you want. That could be fine. Battery is really good.

Great Noise Cancelling Headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only reason I didn't buy XM3 was lack of support for 2 devices so as soon as these came out I was happy that Sony had finally fixed this issue. Afterwards it was an easy decision to buy. Noise Cancellation is awesome. Really like the midnight blue color which only seems to be available at Best Buy.

Excellent for noise canceling, mics OK.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After a long trial period of 3 different Sony noise-canceling headphones, these are no doubt the best of their line. I would have given them 5 stars but the only drawback was the mics. When placing calls, the receivers of the calls mentioned that I was not as clear as a previous set of headphones from another brand. Still, these headphones are by far one of the best I have owned.
