Definite audio upgrade, but folds different
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works well. Crisp audio. I don't like that it does not fold the same way as the XM4s.

Good Service, Great Product.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.AMAZING Product. You get what you pay for. I was gifted these headphones and initially thought to return due to the price. We went to Best Buy looked at others, spoke to staff and I decided to keep and try them. I'm so glad I did, I wouldn't trade them for anything now.

||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Went to the store looking for new headphones, and was in between these and the AirPods max. These won me over because the sound and quietness is far greater than the max. Also this is one of the best purchases ever, totally worth the money.
