Even my tech opposed father enjoyed them
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased these for my father who is not particularly techy, and is typically rather frugal when it comes to tech (i.e. if he's able to hear sound coming from the cheapest pair of headphones possible, those are the ones he wants). I took a shot in the dark and bought him these headphones as a gift, but he enjoyed them so much that he wanted a replacement pair when he lost the originals on a trip. Since then I bought myself the earbud version wf 1000xm4 and my girlfrield also has the WH-1000XM4. We are all very satisfied. While I don't consider myself an audiophile, I think these headphones sound great for a middle of the road pair, and the noise cancelling is excellent. I have always had a hard time with over the ear headphones as they make my head uncomfortable after even short amounts of wear, but I found these headphones to be as comfortable as any I have tried.

Near Perfect Over-the-Ear Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This one of the best noise-cancelling headsets compared to the other one I owned. It blocks the loud ambient noise of lawn mower and leaf blowers while I'm working as well as the dog barking. The sound quality is really good. I haven't tried to use the app yet but turning on noise-cancelling mode is really easy with a clear announcement that has been turned on or off. My only complaint is the ear cups can get a little warm for my liking but this is probably only a problem during the summer.

Great for Music, not so great for meetings
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are the best at the price for music. Excellent sound quality that allows me to hear sounds I’ve never heard before in music, it truly allows you to enjoy the music and makes it almkst feel like you’re there. However, when it comes to calls and meetings, the microphone picks up every single sound which can be a little frustrating.
