||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hi quality headphones with some great features. The noise cancelling is really good, and like the option to have it wired as well. You will want to mess with the settings on the mobile app as well as it will help control some of the features that can be useful at times, and other times not what you want at the time like speak to pause feature. Some people might not like this if they don't want to use the app or using the touch panel to control the headphones.

Nice and Comfortable
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones exceeded my expectations. They are very light and comfortable to wear for those long airline flights or just watching movies at home. I was surprised to find that I can connect them to my TV for the best surround sound experience when watching movies. The noise cancelling works really well, I often times do not hear people talking to me when I have them on. The case if very compact and sturdy.

Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones better than beats hands down. I bought a pair of beats studio and didn’t like the fit and sound was poor. For the price you would think the sound would be better. I exchanged them for these and wow they are awesome. The sound is great and super comfy. It took me a sec to get use to the no buttons on the headphones but I do like that you can turn them off manually vs beats that to turn it off you have to close them. So far they are running smooth and comfy. Def recommend.

My son loves these!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I brought these for my son and he loves them!! They are very nice, I tried them on myself, and I was very impressed on how comfortable they were. I personally don't like headphones for myself though, I prefer earbuds.

Great noise cancelling headphones.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent noise-cancelling ability! We travel internationally and the ability to cancel the loud airplane noise while watching a movie or completing a video course is awesome.

Posted .Hi Echofan,
We are so glad the WH-1000XM4s have become your go-to travel companion for those international flights! To get even better results in the air, don't forget to use the "Atmospheric Pressure Optimizing" feature in the Sony Headphones Connect app, which adjusts the noise canceling specifically for high-altitude cabin pressure.
Thanks for choosing Sony.

Great sound. Great Features. Great Price
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I haven’t traveled at all since buying these, but I have had the experience of using them at home while my wife and I were both on phone calls. The noise canceling is as good as my old Bose headphones (which my wife uses now), and the sound is spectacular, both on calls and for listening to music or watching streaming movies. They are quite comfortable and can be worn for hours without issues. I look forward to traveling again when I can really get the best out of these headphones.

Decent headphones but…
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Decent headphones, good bass and ANC but coming from an airpods user or someone im the apple ecosystem, was a huge downgrade. Not to mention the inability to change settings of the headphones on a mac (main reason why i got it).

Posted .Hello, Ahmad.
Thanks for the comment; it is really important for us to know the overall experience of all customers, as Sony is always looking forward to improve. We understand the Sony | Sound Connect app is not available on Mac devices, but it can be found on your iPhone on the App Store. Nevertheless, we are glad you are enjoying the ANC, as the WH1000XM4 is known for its outstanding noise-canceling capabilities, which effectively reduce ambient sounds, and its capability to deliver deep and powerful bass, which can be further enhanced using the Bass Boost feature in the Equalizer settings. Thanks for choosing Sony!

Nice noise cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Noise canceling is the best!!! Any design or color is fine. Unlike AirPods, it does not hurt your ears even if you use it for a long time. Also, the price is reasonable, I think. The battery lasts longer than expected. It can connect to devices and uses MacBooks and iPhones with it. Switching to Bluetooth between devices works better than expected.

XM4 better than the XM5
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound, Great feel. XM4 , in my opinion, better product than the XM5 and i see no noticeable sound difference for the non audiophile , Bought on sale so way cheaper than comparable competitor and worth waiting for them to be on sale.

Worth Every Penny
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What's there to say that hasn't already been said, its the build, its the sound quality, its the look, the battery life, etc. These are pretty much the go-to as far as Over-the-Ear headphones are concerned and for good reason. They recently released the XM5s which apparently have slightly better noise-cancelling and quality but honestly for the price(especially during a sale) you can't go wrong with these!

||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have one of sonys first Generation over the ear headphones and hate them. They are heavy ugly and pinch my head. I could tell right away when I picked these up for the first time they would not be any of the things I hated about my last pair. They are light, good looking and don't hurt to wear for hours. Noise canceling is best ive ever had and the sound quality is great. I usually dont think anything that costs this much is worth the money but I didnt regret spending a cent on these love em
