Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are my first pair of Sony headphones. Very good to listen casually. I do workout in these from time to time and they are still holding up. Just gotta make sure to wipe it down since it can get very sweaty and wet. I guess if you want it to last longer then i recommend not working out in them. The cups themselves are very very soft and comfortable. I know that when getting helix piercings you shouldnt wear over-the-ears headphone, but i still wore these a week after I got my helix, I cant go without music in public and i hate playing music thru my phone speakers. It didnt irritate my piercings for at least 2-3 hours, which im surprised because my hyperx headphones hurts but these dont.

Deeper bass than AirPods Pro
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.AirPods Pro are my daily drivers but these take the experience to a whole other level. The bass is noticeably louder, and the 360 degree audio is cool. I also like how it can switch between two Bluetooth connections and you almost forget you’re wearing them.

MX4 review
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product overall, noise canceling is on point, and perfect for use at the gym, studying, quiet time, jamming music, and even having on while trying to listen to outside noise using ambient mode. The color was even better in person, and the packaging was great. Can't wait to see the XM6

Sleek, robust and awesome where it matters
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had this headphone for a while now. It is simply the best for noise canceling and has a sleeker look than even XM5 for me. It is robust and charges very fast and lasts a long time. The multi-device connection is not the best though and sometimes the touch gestures are interpreted in the wrong way. But overall greate product.

Amazing headphones for remote working
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only noise cancelling headset I have that does not hurt my ear when wearing for a long time. All my other headset started to hurt my ear due to my glasses. The sound quality is as good as it gets, and mostly due to the limits on the bluetooth bandwidth. I haven't got a chance to try the lossless streaming, but I doubt the current streaming protocol would suggest the bit rate for a true lossless CD.

||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fantastic pair of headphones sound quality wise. The frequency response signature is preferable to the Sony XM 5 headphones in my view. I must admit I worked them till they fell apart at the hinges. I am tempted to replace them with a new pair at the heavily discounted price but also own a pair of Sennheiser Momentum 3 and 4’s and have no way to justify the purchase to my better half. Still I can highly recommend them to give you multiple hours of enjoyment.

Overall sound quality is awesome, they drown out noise really well and I love that there’s an app where you can I have seen these go on sale from time to time, but I couldn’t wait, They last extremely long without me having to charge frequently which is a big plus.

Posted .Hi Timothy,
We are really happy to hear that your new headphones are providing the peace and quiet you need to focus!
The industry-leading noise cancellation in the WH-1000XM4 is specifically designed to filter out a wide range of frequencies, including those sharp, high-pitched sounds like a clicking keyboard. By using our Dual Noise Sensor technology and the Integrated Processor QN1, the headphones can effectively silence the world around you, allowing you to stay fully immersed in your music or work without any external distractions.
Thank you for making Sony part of your daily listening.
Best regards,
Dominick
