Amazing on long flights!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used these headphones on my 15 hour flight to Johannesburg and they are amazing. You turn on noise cancellation and you can still kind of hear the sound of the plane. But when you put on some music and turn up the volume, you can't even hear the plane. I'm not even over exaggerating. The quality is decent. Nice plastics are used. It is a little pricey but depending on who you are, totally worth it.

Posted .Hi Hank,
Awesome! Thank you so much for the 5-stars review and for sharing your amazing experience with our WH-1000XM4! We're really happy to hear you're satisfied with the excellent sound quality and overall performance of these headphones. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. To maximize noise canceling performance, the WH-1000XM4 headphones incorporate two technologies: Personal Noise Canceling Optimizer, designed specifically for you, and Atmospheric-Pressure Optimizing, designed for air travel. Also, check the Adaptive Sound Control settings on the Sony | Headphones Connect app. If Adaptive Sound Control is on, the effects of noise canceling may become weak.

Good headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like these headphones. I've never worn or even tried any other noise-cancelling headphones so I don't know how they compare. However, I bought these for plane travel and have worn them on numerous flights, both short and very long, and they've fit the bill. They block out a lot of the annoying airplane engine noise as well as the ambient noise of other passengers on the plane. The sound quality is good and they are easy to set up and re-connect to my phone and tablet.

Great Headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound is great and I enjoy the controls. The only downside is having to download a separate app in order to use the headphones. I also had problems with them disconnecting during phone calls. Overall, I enjoy these headphones and believe they are well worth the purchase!

Great headphones, stellar noise cancellation.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones sound great and the sound-cancelling is incredible. I forgot to bring these on a flight and definitely missed them. They are also great for an office environment, if you need to focus and get work done. The microphones are okay for the type of device, but certainly don't replace a headset with a proper microphone arm.

Sony - WH1000SM4
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Previously purchased Sony - WH1000XM3 for work and airplane traveling which worked well. Recent purchase of Sony - WH1000XM4 is a nice upgrade. When the new headphones are on noise cancelling is impressive I barely hear surrounding environment. Audio is crisp and dynamic even when conversations are happening around me.

Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are great headphones. The ears are soft and comfortable for long periods. The noise cancellation is great, as is the ability to switch back and forth. Over ear headphones get warm on my ears quickly, but I don’t think that can be helped.

For your issue, having unusually dry skin can store static electricity in humans. A large amount of static electricity in the body and having contact with electrical devices at the same time can cause stress on the device and/or on your body. You can avoid this from happening by wearing clothing of natural materials that can't store static electricity.
Thank you so much for choosing Sony!
