Really good value headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For 350$ these headphones have a great value for the sound and features it packs, for sure better than any headphones around this value, Bose 700 can’t compare to this at all. But if you “got money”, AirPods max is beyond this.

Good
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great noise cancellation and audio quality. Really appreciate having these to cancel out the noise of machinery during my workday. The only negative is when in a phone call the receiver cannot understand me clearly.

Great headphones.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones. The noise cancellation makes you feel like you’re in a void like in the TV shoes where everyone is in a all white room or area. Sadly it was a present for my wife and she preferred something else do had to return.

Not impressed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good sound quality, but not the best. Bass could be better.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from SonyListens
Posted .Thank you for your feedback on the WH-1000XM4, SamraS. We appreciate your positive note on the sound quality and understand your expectations regarding bass performance.
The WH-1000XM4 offers several features that allow users to customize the audio experience to their liking. If you'd like deeper or stronger bass, we recommend adjusting the equalizer settings either through the Sony Headphones Connect app or your audio source. Settings such as "Bass Boost" or manual tuning of lower frequencies can help enhance bass response and tailor the sound to your preferences. Additionally, using high-quality audio codecs like LDAC or AAC can further improve overall sound quality and bass detail when paired with compatible devices.
We value input like yours, as it helps us continue improving our products. If you have any more suggestions or questions about optimizing your WH-1000XM4, please let us know.
Thanks for choosing Sony!

Great for music and below average for calls
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great for noice cancellation. Good music quality. But below average on call quality. Even a 10$ off brand Bluetooth headset performs bette on calls. Switching between mobile and pc is hit or miss. Pc holds the Bluetooth connection for ever so only option is to disable Bluetooth in pc to proceed. Still a 4 star because it’s worth it for the noice cancellation and music quality.

Posted .Hi Venkat,
We're glad that you like the music quality and noise canceling function of the headphones. Your feedback about the call quality and multipoint function is greatly appreciated. Make sure to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app) for optimum performance.
Depending on the device, silent streaming can continue on the first device when the second device has a Bluetooth connection to the headphones. If this is the case, the headphones remain connected to the first device, and the audio doesn't switch to the second device.
Follow these steps to hear sound from the second device:
1. Open the Sony | Headphones Connect app, select the System tab, and make sure the Connect to 2 devices simultaneously option is set to ON.
2. Stop playback on the first connected device.
3. Close the audio (music) application on the first connected device.
Hope this helps. Thanks for sharing your review and for choosing Sony.
