Wonderful headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones. They have an excellent noise canceling feature and the music sound like you are at a concert. They are quite comfortable and am able to wear them for a couple hours straight. The app is an excellent companion to the headphones although you don't need it to use them. Deep bass and very clear vocals. They are also really good for audiobooks or podcasts. The phone call quality it great with the noise canceling so that all you hear is the person you are talking to without a bunch of background noise. I would recommend these headphones for sure.

Amazing headphones for music lovers
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Incredible sounding headphones. I upgraded to these from the WH1000XM2's, which were still going strong but the earpads were falling apart and I couldn't find replacements for them. Definite improvements over the XM2's - better comfort, better noise canceling, better battery life. Don't pay full price for these, when they go on sale, they *really* go on sale and you can get a significant discount. I chose these over the XM5's because of the fold-up design.

Worth it!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good audio quality. Good battery life. Noise canceling eliminates everything but voices but reduces voice volume considerably. It it is so good at canceling everything else that I think this is intentional. There may be a setting that changes this. When music is playing you can only hear music. Headset is very comfortable. App is easy enough to use. I had it running with headphones in 5-10 minutes. Feature that detects when headset is removed and pauses playback is accurate. Touch panel controls on headset work well. Like using a smartphone, you just have to learn what motions do what.

The best ANC on the market
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These have the best active noise canceling on the market - just completely obliterates any kind of noise to a muffled whisper. The tuning is a very average V-shaped response, with a huge amount of bass, but surprisingly enough I don't entirely hate it here. The strong bass helps cancel out the low frequency rumbles of engines and cars on commutes, and hey - who doesn't like heavy bass now and again? The battery life is very good as well for prolonged use, and I could squeeze out 2 12 hour days with them before I felt even an inkling that I should recharge them. Still, price remains contentious in a world where headphones and audio tech in general is becoming increasingly more competitive. I bought them on sale and I feel that it was a reasonable tradeoff.

Excellent and comfortable headphones
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a review after 6 months of use. Excellent pair of headphones. Setup is very easy. Can connect to 2 devices simultaneously. Noise Cancelling is very good. The sound is clear. The bass is deep. Used the headphone for meetings and phones calls and there are no complaints about the voice clarity. The headphones are comfortable for long use. My ears don't hurt as the over-the-ear earcups are big enough to go around my big ears. the cushioning on the earcups is soft. The cushion on the headband is also is good so it does not feel like the headphones are pushing down on my head. The case that the headphones come with offer nice protection when stuffed in a crowded back pack. Highly recommended. A very compelling buy if the available in a sale if people don't want break the bank on Bose 700 or AirPods Max.

Wow! Seriously Impressed!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I decided to take a chance with these. I didn't know what to expect with the XM4 being the first pair of Hi-Res audio headphones I've ever owned. Wow! The sounds quality is nothing short of industry leading and surrounds you most of the time. It really is some amazing work done by Sony with these. Noise canceling works great, the battery life is crazy good, and they fit my head and remain comfortable for hours on end! Using the Sony Music Center app to adjust the EQ is a top feature as well that shouldn't be overlooked. Don't hesitate to purchase these!
