A good buy.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am not an audiophile, but I wanted a top-ranked set of wireless headphone, and this one sounds pretty good to me. It does a pretty good job of sealing off outside sound even without the noise cancelling on, and with it on it's pretty amazing. This headphone is also rests on the head quite comfortably. I haven't had it on for extended periods, so I can't yet attest to its comfort for a long a flight or a long winter's night, but so far, so good. I do recommend them, especially if you get them on sale as I did.

ABSOLUTELY LOVE
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Honestly I saw a lot of reviews about these headphones and was influenced. But I could care less because THEY ARE WORTH UR MONEY. It can last days a couple days with full charge. The noise cancelling does work really well and the ambient sound feature allows me to hear things when I’m outside, so that itself is convenient. Overall 10/10. Absolutely love!

Expensive but worth it
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are comfortable, sound great, have good noise cancelling, and generally do everything I want. The one downside is you can't charge and listen wirelessly at the same time. But the recharge speed is fast and battery lasts long, so that isn't really a problem. You can also plug it into a 3.5mm audio jack, which the wire is thankfully included, but noise cancelling won't be available if you use it that way.

Posted .Hi OctavioV,
Thank you for the 5-star review! We're so happy to hear that you're enjoying the excellent noise cancellation, sound, and battery life of your WH-1000XM4 headphones. A key feature that makes their noise cancellation so effective is the HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN1, which works in real-time to analyze and process noise signals over 700 times per second. This allows the headphones to block out a wider range of high and mid-frequency sounds, giving you a truly immersive and distraction-free listening experience.
Thanks for choosing Sony, have a great day!

Excellent wireless, noise cancelling headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable for over the ear headphones. The noise reduction is very good and can be cancelled conveniently when you need to pay attention to something else. The tonal quality is very natural, especially for the price. The bluetooth connection is solid, and adapts to multiple devices.

Good quality headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones with amazing audio quality. I choose those because they are light and foldable, plus they have wire and adapters for the airplane entertainment.

Traveling companion
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use this for travel, mainly on airplanes. Excellent sound quality, maybe a little bass heavy depending on your preferences, but you can correct for that. Good noise cancellation, and the transparency and passive modes are good features. I like the combination of physical buttons and the touch sensitive controls for forward/back, pause/play, and volume. Not as comfortable on the top of my head as I remember my Bose QCs were, foam could be softer or deeper.

Love it
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comfortable and I cannot hear my family with the noise canceling feature even when the volume isn't that high up. The battery life is excellent as well. When the headphones die, it takes around 5-10 minutes for it to charge all the way up and it lasts a long time.
