Sony Xm4 noise canceling
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are good headphones, music quality is good and the ability to pair to 2 devices and seamlessly switch between them. The noise canceling is the best from my experience. You can still hear things around you unless you have music playing, which for studying in a cafe isn't great if you dont like to study with music.

High Quality
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pros:Love how powerful the low frequency active noise cancellation (upstairs stomping),sturdy,sleek,simple user interface,excellent sound,big spacious earcups.The best low freq noise cancelling headphone out there (triumphs over bose qc ultras). Better than XM5 model for now because the human is still in control of the noise cancellation (XM4) Cons: can get hot quickly if worn for a long time in a hot area.

Great Sound. Great Controls.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've owned several headphones, including 3 Boses, 2 JBLs, and a few others. These Sony headphones are the best sounding I've owned. The noise canceling works great. The controls take some getting used to, but once you figure them out they are genius. Far superior to the Boses controls. I use them primarily with my Samsung Note 9 and Samsung Smart TV. I haven't had any issue pairing or keeping them connected. I use them regularly outdoors while doing chores.

Great headphone with just one flaw
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you are planning to use this headphone mostly on a Windows machine please take a note that you cant use LDAC on Windows and iOS devices. While on iOS devices AAC format creates good sound, they have omitted the aptX so the sound code is limited to a very old SBC format on Windows. I am not an audiophile myself but can hear some sound differences between my Windows machine (SBC) and iPhone (AAC). I didn't know this when bought the item, and if I knew probably look somewhere else. But, I can't say I am 'that' disappointed, the product is great and the battery life is really good.
