No real drawbacks
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only possible drawbacks to this are price (fair but they are not cheap) or wondering how to replace the ear pads. They sound fantastic and the noise canceling is so good I can take a nap at my desk while my kids play Minecraft on the TV :-). I use them for everything from YouTube to CyberPunk and recommend them highly.

Posted .Hi ShohelA!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us! It is fantastic to know that you’re finding your WH-1000XM4s to be a good set of headphones.
We appreciate the honest feedback regarding the noise cancellation levels, as it helps us keep improving.
To boost the noise canceling on your WH-1000XM4, here are a few simple things you can try:
-Check the Sony | Sound Connect app: Make sure Adaptive Sound Control is turned off. If it's on, the headphones might be switching to "Ambient Sound" mode because they think you're walking or waiting, which lets outside noise in.
-Double check that the ear pads are sitting flush against your head. If there’s even a small gap, the noise canceling won't be able to do its job properly.
Thanks for choosing Sony and sharing your feedback!
Best regards,
Estefany

Another winning headset from SONY
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.An exceptional set of headphones. A lot of automation and sound tailoring possible with the Sony application. They are very comfortable and the noise cancelling is A+. I felt that I had to custom set many of the features to work well for my usage, but kudos to Sony for having that level of customization in their application.

The King of over-the ear Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best over the ear headphones money can buy. They're light, they fit well, your ears and head don't get sore after extended use, and the sound quality is above and beyond what beats or Apple can provide. The only comparable brand is Bose, and you would be paying another $100-$200 for similar audio quality.

Softest, Most Comfortable to Wear
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wear glasses, and find most standard headphones uncomfortable. These are excellent for form fitting softness. The sound quality is great. My only issue with them is the headphones smell like chemicals. That's a deal breaker for me, but not for my spouse.

Pretty Good
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like these headphones a lot. Pretty comfortable and light. Nice features and noise cancellation. They do not feel expensive but function like they are. I liked them enough to buy me and my brother a pair. The black pair is low key but the midnight blue pair adds a little touch of color but both are still subtle.

Comfortable and great sound.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Headphone was very comfortable. I wore it while sleeping on a 5 hour flight and had no issues. The sound quality is great, watching movies and listening to music was a game changer for me. $350 is worth the price but is understandably expensive for most. If you ever see this on sale be sure to pick it up.

The Best A/N/C Headphones!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great Headphones, I had the 2nd generation and those were already quality headphones and these are still miles better, the notice canceling is top-notch. They are just as good as the Bose 700 which I have tried as well, even more comfortable, and for about 100 dollars left a much much better deal. Sony knows what they're doing!
