Great all around
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sony ...XM4 were easy to pair with my iphone. Sound quality is great, and I like the Sony app, so I can even adjust sound through their equalizer that's on the app to target specific notes for different types of music. Well made and comfortable too.

Nice SOUND headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound is very good, much of the surrounding "noises" are nullified by the snug fit. It's comfortable for long periods of time, the jack/cable are high quality construction and the headphones themselves are of "sound" quality. I highly recommend this product!

Best headphones in the market
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Phenomenal noise cancelling and the real differentiator is how well the voice isolation works when taking calls with background noise

xm4 > xm5 : For the price and comfort, xm4 win.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had both the xm5 and xm4, and yes, the xm5 sounded slightly better. But not $200 better. The xm4 are also more comfortable for big heads like me, along with big ears. You can get these on a great deal (usually $250), which I am extremely happy with.

Exceptional!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far, excellent! I has the earlier model, which I plan to return due to Bluetooth issues. I must say the current model is lighter and has no such Bluetooth related issues. I favor deep bass headphones, and SONY is perfect for such. Plus, I love the color midnight blue.

Great!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent with just a few minor issues that annoy me. Noise cancelling feature is great, helps to keep the noise down much more in this family setting I am in (kids, dogs, ect). My biggest positive is the charging and battery life. You charge this thing for 5 minutes and I swear it can still last you for two full days!

Excellent upgrade! Best noise cancelling headphone
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are well worth the price. They are by far the best sounding noise-cancelling headphones out there. I've tried offerings from Bose, Sennheiser and a few others. The sound on the Sony are by far the most realistic, with a well balance between bass, treble and mids.

Best noise cancelling headphones ever!
