    Truly noise canceling and super comfortable for extended periods of use. Earbuds don’t stay in my ears and on ear headphones hurt after a while with a mask and glasses behind the ears so over the ear was a perfect solution! The sound is incredible and the noise canceling is amazing. I get caught up in my own world and don’t get distracted by things going on around me!

    I've owned Bose for the past 20 years and they were great for noise cancellation and overall sound. I've had these Sony XM4 for over 3 weeks. Meet the new champion. Long battery life. Excellent noice cancellation. Lots of great features like: Swipe Volume Control, Swipe Skip, Swipe Replay, Auto Pause when you speak and much more control and customization using Sony's app.

    Noise cancelling is amazing! Comfort is also great, but the ears can get hot a couple hours in. Touch control can be a bit finicky, I had to exchange mine out for a replacement, but it worked ok after that. I hate having to adjust the headband slider every time I put them back in the case, since I use the case often, but that's just being nitpicky. Great headphones!

    I read a lot of reviews before purchasing the xm4 headset. I am very happy with these. I am not a music expert but I know what I like being of the older generation. I amazed by the noise cancelation, sound and battery life of the unit. The one problem is after a couple of hours having the on my ear start to sweat so I take them off.

    I've been using these headphones for about a year now and it's been a game changer for my day-to-day. I work remote but the headphones work great for calls on all types of apps (zoom, google meets, teams, etc) and the ANC blocks off the background noise if you have some family. I only have the occasional connection issues but it isn't anything you can't fix with a quick reset.
