Mid at best.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Eh, these were okay. Did not wow me, but are very comfortable. The pressure optimization gave me headaches for the first 2 weeks. I was going to return these, but didn’t realize there was a 14 day return policy. I guess I’m stuck reselling them as I’d prefer a more crisp sound and deeper bass.

My mistake.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sorry I really can’t give you an honest review. My fault. I’m taking a trip soon and decided I had vastly overbought for my flying portion of the trip and I just couldn’t justify the expense. They are highly rated and the salesperson was great. Never even used but tried display in store.

Four point five ⭐️
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the sound that comes from there. I found them a bit fiddly to start with and realised you have to have only the one Bluetooth you need on...or it might not work right. But overall very happy and would give 4.5 stars if I could.

Posted .Hi Squirrel,
We're glad that you like the sound quality of the headphones. To use the Bluetooth function, both of the connecting devices must be registered in advance. The operation to register a device is called “device registration (pairing)”. If the device to be connected does not support one-touch connection (NFC), pair the headset and the device manually. If the device supports one-touch connection (NFC), you can pair the headset and device and establish a Bluetooth connection by simply touching the headset with the device. Once a device and the headset are paired, there is no need to pair them again. Connect to devices already paired with the headset using the methods necessary for each device.
The headset enters pairing mode automatically when you pair the headset with a device for the first time after you bought it or after you initialized the headset (the headset has no pairing information). When you pair a second or subsequent device (the headset has pairing information for other devices), press and hold the (power) button for about 7 seconds. Check that the indicator (blue) repeatedly flashes twice in a row. You will hear the voice guidance say, “Bluetooth pairing”.
We hope you continue to have a good experience with the headphones. The WH-1000XM4 is a new design, with intelligent and intuitive Ambient Sound Control features that include improvements to Multipoint connection and our industry-leading Noise Cancelation, exceptional sound quality, and Smart Listening that adjusts to your behavior and location. Thank you for choosing Sony!
