Sony headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound and very comfortable. I wouldn’t buy these for someone if they have a smaller head. They did not fit my girlfriends.

Nice headphones
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent sound and very comfortable. My only issue is that when you press the power button when the headphones are on it is supposed to tell you how much battery life is left but it always says battery is fully charged even when that is not the case.

10/10 headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent headphones. The noise cancelling on these is very effective and blocks out around 90% of surrounding sounds. The soundstage is also very wide and the base is very good. Battery life last for multiple days as well

Super light and comfortable
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The most important plus for me is that these headphones are super comfortable. Some people say it is all plastic and not as premium as some other offers on the market, but it makes them very light and extremely comfortable for longer wear. The sound is great as well. Ideal headphones for WFH

Over 2000 hours of use!!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones!! I had my first pair for 4 years and used them everyday before the seal inside broke, which means it makes a small whistling sound in ANC is on. I had over 2000 hours of use!! I was so pleased with these headphones that I got another pair for ANC and that way I can use my first pair while working on projects and don't have to worry about it they get damaged.

Noise cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sony WH-1000XM4 Wireless Noise Canceling Headphones are honestly some of the best headphones I’ve ever used, especially because of their incredible noise cancellation. As soon as I turn them on, background sounds like people talking or traffic almost completely disappear, making it so much easier to focus on music or whatever I’m listening to. The noise canceling also adjusts depending on where I am, which makes the experience feel really smooth and personalized. Everything sounds clearer and more immersive without needing to blast the volume, which I really like. Overall, these headphones are amazing for anyone who wants to block out distractions and just enjoy their audio.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Without a doubt, these are the best noise canceling headset I have ever owned. They fit very comfortably over my reading glasses and I can wear them all day. The battery life is long enough for a twelve hour work day. Very consistent Bluetooth. No problem connecting every single time and very easy to use.

Excellent
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones. At the time of purchase I could have bought the XM5's but still chose the MX4. The MX5's felt better on my head but I think I was hearing better bass in the MX4's and I'm more into the bass side. I just liked the sound from the 4's better than the 5's and I have the 100 Daily Listener Badge too that the app tracks.

Perfect headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best ANC headphones hands down! I reviewed and researched numerous websites, reviews. And actual in-store listening as my daughter is a researcher and needed headphones that would allow her quiet and serenity in the lab, writing reports, analyzing data, or studying in her favorite coffee shop and she gave 6 out of 5 stars! Also, crystal clear call clarity and awesome music performance from Taylor Swift to hip-hop. She loves them and is seriously considering the WF1000MX6 earbuds for her workouts and running. Highly recommended!

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent sound quality with superior noise cancellation abilities. Neat feature to "mute" the noise cancelling with just the touch of the outer headphone, makes communication with other individuals in the room very easy. Battery duration is excellent and super comfortable to wear for extended periods of time.

Best headphones you can buy
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been a longtime Bose fan, and own a pair of QC35 and NC700s. I believe that the Sony XM4 are superior in sound quality and noise canceling. They are lightweight and comfortable to wear for long periods, and I find that they provide a fuller sound for all content.
