Very comfortable & excellent noise cancellation
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable headphones with excellent noise cancellation. Very good sound quality. The only issue I faced is with connecting iPhone and Macbook at the same time. When connected to 2 devices and I pay and stop audio from Macbook and later try to play from iPhone, it doesn't play. I need to disconnect Macbook in order for audio from iPhone to play.

Amazing Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As most reviews have already stated - great, balanced sound from these headphones. Great battery life, good build quality, and the ability to connect to more than one source at a time is a big improvement over last year's version.

Great!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was debating between these and Apple AirPods Pro 2, and Bose QuietComfort. I’m glad I went with over the ear headphones and chose Sony. The sleek finish and the headset touch pad on the right ear is so handy. Sound quality is great and noise cancelling is far better than Apple AirPod Pro 1.

WH-1000XM4
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality is good. Noise cancelling is good. Bass is definitely there but would not recommend if you are a basshead and looking specifically for bass. The feature to connect to 2 devices at once (a phone and laptop for example) works very well. I can get a call, end the call, then automatically switch back to my laptop.

Simply Awesome Get these Cans!!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ok I own Beats StudI 3, Power Beats 3, Bowers & Wilkins PX7 and P5, Bose Soundsport, Bose Buds and now Sony M4 and I'm shocked how great the sound. The Ultimate Test Luther Vandross - Evergreen, Impossible Dream and of course Superstar (Live). Wow found app setting on the equalizer "Voice" it reduces the instruments and elevates the vocals - Simply Smooth; Take it to another level set the EQ on "Excited ." Prepare to be blown away. They run close with the Jabra but because the are over the ear better reduction of noise.
