Stream Head Phones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As an AppleMusic user the audio quality is noticeable for files in Spatial Audio - Dolby Atmos. Audio cancellation takes a bit to getting use to the headphones will change settings entering and exiting different environments.

Lifesaver
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These have become my emotional support headphones. I use them at work to block out sounds to help me focus. They work amazing on planes and for daily use. When it's time to buy another pair I'm going for this model because they're better than the nee ones in my opinion.

We are so glad to hear that your husband is enjoying his new WH-1000XM4 headphones! It is a great testament to the quality of the series that he chose to stick with the same model for his programming work, where the industry-leading noise cancellation and 30-hour battery life are perfect for long, focused sessions. We hope this new pair serves him just as reliably for years to come. Thanks for choosing Sony.

They block out a lot and im happy with how well they work. The only negative is the dont stay securely on during certain exercises but that is my only dislike.
