Good over the ear headphones
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sony WH XM4 are mazing over the ear headphones. I have big ears and these kinda fit into the ear cups. Sound quality if awesome. I wouldn't wear this continuously for long periods. I have been on 2-3 hour long calls and they have worked great. The app makes sure your firmware is up to date.
