Almost Completely Sound Proof
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Almost completely sound proof. I got these as a gift for my daughter and if i loved them enough myself I was going to buy a pair for myself. I want to statt by saying I was completely blown away and impressed with the noise cancellation these have. Without music you sound like you are underwater and if someone is trying to talk to you not even a foot away you can barely hear a whisper. With music or other sound going forget about hearing anyone. I also loved the bass these gave off. Some other features I loved is the easy way you can control everything right from the ear muffs. It was also very convinient being able to have an app to change settings and access all the features. Lastly, the case keeping everything protected and in one place. Great for traveling or for keeping it safe. BUT the one thing that I personally didnt care for was I felt it didnt go loud enough. Even after I messed with the settings on my phone and on the app the volume was not as loud as my powerbeatspro I have. However, my powerbeatspro did not have any of the other wonderful features aside from the app, that these headphones have. As I mentioned these were for my daughter and she doesnt care too much to have music blasting in her ears and loves them the way they are. I will probably keep looking for something more suited for me.

It’s a Sony
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First of all it’s a Sony. Sony does two things very well, televisions and noise canceling headphones. I originally purchased the 1000XM3’s, a week later the 1000XM4’s went on sale $30 cheaper than XM3’s. Both are excellent noise canceling, but the XM4 is more flat and neutral sounding, which I prefer. XM3 has a boosted bass response. The noise canceling is the best in the industry and it’s true. With an iPhone the Bluetooth stays connected with no break up all through the house. If you are looking for great sounding, comfortable, light weight, best noise canceling headphones, these are hard to beat. I would recommend highly.

the bads n goods
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphones arent too heavy or too light it feels good. and the cushions r very soft to feel with my hands but I'm not sure if its just me but having them on for too long my ears start hurting, not because of the pressure or anything but because the cushions are too small. comparing it to other headphones they have larger cushions. The color is very cute, I was already aware they weren't the white color and are grey and I love the grey. The connection for these headphones are so ragebaiting it pmo. Through the app you can choose to connect to two devices and sometimes it works very well then other times it just doesnt work at all and takes forever. Also, when I first bought it I used it for my pc as well as my other devices but now I use different headphones for my pc because the sony headphones they first, take so long to connect and when they do they often bug out and lag, then when I connect it with wire, it sounds way better than bluetooth but has SO MUCH STATIC. its insane, so i just stopped using the plugged in version, it hurts my ears. over all its good headphones compared to rip off ones I used before the good parts, theres custom noise cancelling for each enviornment you're in by holding down custom button it's alright noise cancelling, if its super loud ofc it wont cancel everything out the music sound quality is pretty good in my opinion overall I dont regret buying it

Posted .Thank you for your detailed and honest review, HaileyC!
We are happy to hear that overall, the WH-1000XM4 provides good music sound quality, soft cushions, and effective custom noise cancelling. We also love that you are enjoying the grey color!
We sincerely apologize for the comfort issues, as we understand the ear cushions can feel too small for some users after long hours. We also regret the significant frustrations you are having with unstable multi-point connection and especially the severe issues with your PC: long connection times, bugging/lagging via Bluetooth, and the insane static when using the wired connection.
To address the static, please try using a different cable or audio port on your PC, as this often indicates a cable or port issue. For PC Bluetooth lag, ensure you are connected to the "Stereo" profile, not the "Hands-Free" profile.
We are committed to helping you resolve these technical issues to improve your experience. If the issue persists, please contact our support team for further troubleshooting. You can find contact options here: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=headphones

Best Bluetooth Headset...again!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing set of headphones. Class leading noise cancelling and near audiophile quality audio with the right device. As a previous owner of the XM2's, the XM4's are lighter weight and much more comfortable to wear during the day. As more are working from home and using telecommunications for work, this is quite important and will go a long way. Call quality is also top notch. One downside is the touch controls on the earpiece has been less responsive that previous versions. Often takes multiple inputs for your touches to be recognized. Overall, would recommend these to just about anyone.

Posted .Hi DigitalDrew,
We're glad that you are enjoying the sound quality, comfort, call quality, and noise canceling function of the headphones. It's unfortunate that you are not having a complete experience because of the touch control. These steps may help you when the touch sensor is not responding correctly:
-The sensor of the touch sensor control panel is built into the flat surface of the right unit. Operate within the range of the sensor.
-When you swipe your finger forward/backward or up/down on the touch sensor control panel, the touch sensor control panel may not work correctly depending on the angle at which the headset is worn or the direction your head is facing.
a. When you swipe your finger forward/backward, make the movements perpendicular to the headband.
b. When you swipe your finger up/down, make the movements parallel to the headband.

New & Improved
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pros: Great noise cancelling Great sound quality Bluetooth multipoint is super convenient Multiple Bluetooth codecs supported (SBC, AAC, LDAC) Bluetooth 5.0 Battery life is great Comfortable and has hinges for folding Auto-pauses when you take them off Cons: Price is still expensive. If you have the money and want a top-tier pair of headphones for modern life, the Sony WH-1000XM4 are the way to go. The combination of high quality Bluetooth codecs, great sound, improved noise cancelling, good battery life, and smart features like autopause and Bluetooth multipoint makes these the best all-around option for me.

Best choice
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Most comfortable headphones out there. The noise canceling does its work to the fullest especially in the loudest situations. They’re also super light compared to other headphones like beats which I like the most. Also nothing is more crazy than the battery power it has because they can last a good week if you keep using them from time to time. I recommend these over any other brands without a doubt 10/10

Better than Airpods Max
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.1. Sound Quality: The XM4 headphones deliver exceptional sound quality with a wide soundstage and deep bass. They have a powerful 40mm driver that produces clear and detailed audio. In comparison, the AirPods Max have a good sound quality but are not as dynamic as the XM4. 2. Noise Cancellation: The XM4 headphones have one of the best noise-cancellation features on the market. They can block out almost all external noise, making them perfect for use in noisy environments. The AirPods Max have good noise-cancellation, but it is not as effective as the XM4. 3. Battery Life: The XM4 headphones have a battery life of up to 30 hours, which is significantly longer than the AirPods Max. The AirPods Max have a battery life of up to 20 hours, which is still impressive but not as good as the XM4. 4. Comfort: The XM4 headphones are designed to be comfortable, with soft earpads and a lightweight frame. They can be worn for long periods without causing any discomfort. In comparison, the AirPods Max are heavier and can cause discomfort after prolonged use. 5. Price: The XM4 headphones are significantly cheaper than the AirPods Max, making them a great value for money. The AirPods Max are very expensive, and their high price tag may not be justified by their features. Overall, the XM4 headphones are a better choice than the AirPods Max. They offer superior sound quality, noise-cancellation, battery life, and comfort, all at a lower price point.

Phenomenal, only lasted 5 months, Squeal of Death
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Lasted about 5 months with issues, but was phenomenal while it did!!! Amazing sound, very comfortable, got on sale for around $260 I believe, so watch for this because it happens from time to time. Now I used these from day one of the purchase till that 5 Month period, and it was daily, pretty much saying they were never shut off. So it was a lot of use, maybe like 10-14 months to someone else since I slept in them too while they were noise cancelling. The Sound Quality was amazing at first, although I noticed that did drop off about 10-15% on Bass, and the volume seemed lessened but not by much - this was in the first month. Although it still sounded great. They do tend to wear very warm and your ears sweat, and they smelled a bit stinky and required baby wipes to clean them often, just a forewarning. Things I didn't care for - the Noise Cancelling only works on certain things. I am a truck driver and sleep with the Noise Cancelling on, so I have a lot to say about this - it blocks out refers for the most part (keeps the lower noise, but the annoying higher pitched noise is gone). Highway noise is removed. Makes it easier to sleep in by far. Before this I used low profile shooters muffs and ear buds. When the squeal of death came about, it started as just an oddity from pushing down into the pillow on my left side and it would squeal while air deflated out around the cushion, but became more sensitive, and then finally whenever my ear was pushed into the muff, and then anything in close proximity to the left ear muff - like my hand going in to cover it. You have to have the Sony App installed on your device to turn off the noise cancelling, and then it works; but you have to do this every time you power cycle these things which gets highly annoying. At this writing they are sitting in a cabinet waiting to get replace under the 1yr Sony warranty before I use my 2yr Best Buy Warranty. Outside of that they worked seamless and flawlessly. I used them on a Surface Laptop, Samsung Galaxy Note 9 and Tab S4. The only attributable flaw I wish they could work on is wearing them around your neck and then popping them onto your head loosens the adjusters left and right, and you have to adjust them each time - it's too loose I find, maybe a few more inch-lbs of tension in the mechanism would keep this at bay, but that was really it. They last about 6-10 hours of playing (depending on volume and if I had the window partially down - which they don't cancel out wind noise very well at all and it takes away from battery life), and I'll be left at 10-20% by morning sleeping in them and using them for that 10 hrs I have off duty. So the full day charge bit is pretty solid. And then I charge them in the morning, which takes like 1-3/4 hrs or so, which I found just about 2 wks before they went south that it fast charges in like a half an hour to a really good 80% or so, but I had enough time to check that more than twice.

I’ve discover a new way to enjoy my music library
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sennheiser Momentum Wireless headphones are the headphones I didn’t realize I was missing. The headphones has up to 60 hrs of battery life, wireless, feels lightweight during wear and offers customizable sound such as bass and treble etc. the headphones also offers fairly good noise cancellation features. My previous wired headphones were manufactured by Bose; but these Sennheiser headphones has simply blowed them away in all things that factor such as sound, customization, and fingertip controls. I’ve been contemplating upgrading to these headphones and I am glad I have. Additional customization is available via their app which also provides quick tips and and settings. Overall, great musical experience and value.

Amazing Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are really good for the money and what they feature. Although $350 is a lot for a pair of headphones it is impressive how much tech and features Sony has been able to put in these headphones and keeping the price reasonable and competitive with other headphones on the market that cost more and deliver less features. Noise cancelling on these headphones are good, I haven't taken these headphones and an airplane yet, but I did use them in cars and all car noises and radio have been blocked out by these headphones, however when I used these headphones inside my home without playing music and someone would talk to me you can hear a bit of them. These headphones are made from a premium plastic which keep the headphones lightweight, but also quite durable. I can easily wear these headphones for 4+ hours and not get any ear fatigue. The sound from these headphones are incredible, using the normal sound profile these headphones came with deliver great sound and overall well balanced. You can install the headphones app on your smartphone and customize the EQ if you so wish. Battery Life is also great, I have been able to mange around 30 hours with these headphones while using noise cancelling, also to note I usually keep the volume around 70-80%. The features these headphones come with are great even though at times you may never use such features. The biggest feature I do like about these headphones is being able to connect to devices to this single pair of headphones, So I can listen to music on my computer and pick up call on my smartphone. However switching from device to device has a one second pause.

||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely love these headphones! The comfort is top-tier. I can wear them for hours without any discomfort, which is rare for over-ear models. The noise cancellation is incredibly effective; it really blocks out background noise and lets me focus or relax without distractions. One of my favorite things is how lightweight they are. Unlike the Aipods Max and other bulky headphones I've tried, these feel barely there but still deliver amazing sound quality. Highly recommend if comfort and peace are priorities for you!

Excellent Value at the Sale Price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price I paid, this is an excellent value (I purchased when it was a deep discount sale). At full price it's more like a 4 rating. If you are used to a smooth, warm sound, then out of the box this will be very bright although not harsh. You will need to use the equalizer in the app to tailor the sound. Bass is strong and rich. Noise cancelling is actually better than the Bose QC45, which I still own and use. It pairs easily with other devices. Comfort is simply remarkable. I went hours listening without noticing this thing on my head; I actually forgot that I had them on; yes it's that comfortable. When they go on sale again, I will be purchasing the beige color. Good buy.

Quality of wh1000xm4 headphone
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound as well as the battery have been great, I bought since May, 22 and still using it right now so there are no any problem like the battery life or the cancellation mode are reduced. Besides this, weight is one of the most Im quite interested in it, thin, concise. The last thing, the hug of headphones does not make my head feel heavy, even though I do not feel one.

Awesome Headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These Headphones Are Seriously Next Level If you’re hunting for a pair of headphones that offer both premium sound and top-tier comfort, stop scrolling you’ve just found them. I’ve been using these headphones for a few weeks now, and I’m honestly blown away. The audio quality is nothing short of amazing—crisp highs, deep bass, and a balanced midrange that makes every genre sound incredible. Whether I’m zoning out to some ambient tracks or blasting my workout playlist, they never miss a beat. Noise-cancellation? Unreal. It cuts out background noise so effectively that it feels like I’m in my own personal sound bubble. Perfect for travel, noisy offices, or just some peace at home. Comfort-wise, I can wear these for hours without any fatigue. The ear cushions are soft and breathable, and the adjustable headband fits snugly. Bonus points for: • Sleek, minimal design • Easy touch controls • Seamless Bluetooth pairing If you’re serious about sound and want a hassle-free wireless experience, these headphones are absolutely worth the investment. They’re not cheap, but you get what you pay for and then some.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.had to pay a pretty penny for these bad boys but they are well worth the financial commitment. i found having this quality makes such a difference in my day to day mindset. i tried them at a display at best buy a while back and couldn't stop thinking about them so i finally bought them. ordered them to be picked up. they were ready so fast and when i went in everyone was friendly and it was a quick painless experience. now that i have had them for almost a month and use them daily i can truly say these are the best headphones i have ever had and i still look forward to wearing them when i am away from them. the noise cancelling on another level of technology and the simplicity to turn off that function or go to ambient sound makes it so convenient to snap back into reality. i truly love the customizable options to skip, pause, volume, etc. i had some other sony's that had the same function but these are soo comfortable, straightforward and the battery life lasts forever I've only charged them once and the battery wasn't even low I was just doing it out of habit. if you are thinking about it, do it. my only regret is not getting them sooner.

Unparalleled Listening Experience with the Sony WH

Best Overall ANC Headphones - Compared With Bose
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these for my son as a graduation gift after he tried out the Bose NC 700's first. He said: These are very comfortable headphones for long term use, but there's a bit of pressure on the crown of the head after 4+ hours. The ANC is outstanding and on par if not slightly better than the Bose headphones. I have 4 fans in my room (no AC in the dorms) and it blocked 90% of the fan noise. Battery was insanely long and I had a hard time getting these headphones to run out of juice (Bose offers 20 hours instead of 30 on these). The added smart features were all mostly useful. Multi-device pairing was a must for me, and these deliver as it seamlessly transitions between my phone and my laptop (you have to give up LDAC to enable multi-device pairing). I love how you can choose in the app which 2 devices you want to be paired. Auto pause was convenient when I needed to take them off to talk to someone. Speak-to-chat was cool but I don't see myself using it (holding 2 fingers on the touch pad toggles it on or off). Sound was great, if not a bit muddy for me since I like to emphasize vocals, but the EQ made tuning it to my style a breeze (the Bose were also muddy but the EQ wasn't available when I tried them, and I've seen that it's not as useful and even a bit buggy at times). You can change the EQ even while music is playing to hear the changes in real time. Bass was perfect out of the box but this could be tweaked too. Overall I love how it can be changed to your own music tastes. They are also loud headphones, as 50% volume was perfect for me even in my loud fan-filled room so there's a lot of headroom left over if more volume is needed (Bose were really quiet by comparison and I had to have it at 85-90% to get decent volume). The only con I found is that the mics are nowhere as good as the Bose NC 700's. They're not bad and definitely above average quality but I will miss the class leading mics on the Bose. Regardless, you will still be heard pretty clearly, I just mainly got complaints about background noise. To sum up, these are awesome headphones that should deliver on pretty much every single thing you need them too. I would only recommend the more expensive Bose if you are constantly taking phone calls with your headphones.
