Sony WH1000XM4 Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a couple of long flights coming up and decided that I needed to upgrade my headphones to noise-cancelling. These were on-sale, had good reviews, so decided to try a pair. Went to Best Buy to look at them and thought they sounded great. When I got home, I realized that the headphones came in a nice case and included a detachable wire so that I could plug directly into the airplanes system, perfect! Now I have the ability to go wireless or wired and have a great sounding pair of headphones.

Don’t look for the XM5’s, get these!
|Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.[Employee of bestbuy] These are honestly one of the best noise cancelling headphones in the market. Perfect for people who are looking to disconnect from the world and take a deep dive in the world of EDM, hip hop or any genre that can appreciate the punchy sound profile these have. The Sony app works really well in terms of EQ and connectivity, these are a gift when they’re on a deal. The XM5’s are great but, in terms of almost every area including ANC, the 4’s are a better option while saving at least a few $$.

Great sound, not so great noise cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My old, wired QuietComforts had finally come to a time they needed replacing, and I knew I wanted to get a high quality pair of wireless headphones. Sound quality is big for me, and equally important is the noise cancellation since I work in an open office and spend a fair amount of time on flights. While these Sony headphones definitely deliver on sound quality (the app is cool, if not kind of quirky, too), the noise cancellation is not as good as my old QCs. Also, switching Bluetooth between devices is unnecessarily difficult, requiring you to restart the headphones. I don't regret the purchase, but if i could do it again, i think I'd splurge for the XM5s or the QC 700s.

Switched from Bose to Sony
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Stellar sound quality and noise cancelling. Switched from Bose Quiet Comfort’s to the Sony XM4’s. Didn’t think I’d ever love another noise-canceling headphone as much as the QCs. These are amazing though. Great sound, battery life, quality.
