Cancels noise - Good sound.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really enjoy them. They have great noise canceling to the point where you can't hear anything other than what is playing on the headphones. I love the sound and now use the headphones more than I do my airpods.

Top of the line quality
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the set I finally stayed with afte trying all the top brands and models. Beats not so great. iPod Max over the ear are great. And bit pricey. Bose top of the line great too. It takes some time to get used to the controls. But it’s genus engineering. These are as good as it gets unless you want to step up to corded Audiophile headphones

Good, not Great
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am not an Audiophile, but I Love music, especially when I can hear and distinguish each instrument. I really like when I can hear the drumsticks taping the symbols. These headphones sound really good, but to my ears, they don't let me hear individual instruments so well. I returned them and are still searching. Wish I still had my old Radio Shack Realistic headphones from the 70's.

Posted .Hi Pminter,
Thank you for the feedback. We're sorry to hear the Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones didn't meet your preference for hearing individual instruments. It sounds like you have a great ear for detail, a quality that's often best served by headphones with a more neutral sound profile. If you're still looking for that detailed sound, we invite you to check out our latest model, the Sony WH-1000XM6. They feature a new driver unit and audio processor specifically designed to deliver a clearer, more precise soundstage, making it easier to distinguish each instrument and hear the subtle details you're after.
Thank you for considering Sony products!
Best regards,
Dominick

Posted .Hello jmk1,
Thank you so much for your feedback! We're glad to hear that you find the WH1000XM4 headphones to be good. We value your comments regarding the effectiveness of the noise cancellation feature.
To ensure you get the best performance, we recommend adjusting the settings in the "Sony | Headphones Connect" app. For an optimal experience, please set the [Ambient Sound Control] to [Noise Canceling] mode. Keep in mind that if you have Adaptive Sound Control enabled, it could impact the noise-canceling effectiveness, so you may want to consider modifying that setting as well.
For detailed instructions, please refer to the following link: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm4/v1/en/contents/TP0002752735.html.
Thank you for choosing Sony!
Best regards,

Pretty great but…
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the headphones the sound is amazing and the feature that always you to converse with others just by starting to talk is handy. The only real issue is that feature is very sensitive to the point that even when I laugh it goes off. The feature can be turned off so its not an issue for the future so other than that I can recommend these headphones.
