Great pair of headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Such a great headphone. I upgraded from the WH-1000XM3 and wow. Not that I had any complaints with my old pair, but these are awesome. They're super comfortable and sound great. They also have a better EQ to control the sound with in app. The new case is pretty good too. I like the magnetic clasp instead of a zipper. These are great for listening to music, watching a movie, flying on a plane, or just blocking out most of your surroundings while working or studying.

Nice sound quality and comfortable to wear
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super comfortable and good sound quality. I like that they brought back the folding feature. I just wish I could keep the ambient sound mode on instead of having it switch back to noise cancellation mode automatically.

Couldn't be happier!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These sound amazing! The fact that they're so light and carry a punchy sound make them even more awesome. I was going back and forth between this and the apple airpod Max's but they were too heavy and didn't have a deeper bass compared to the Sony's. I got them for my wife as I still use my XM4's. I can say sound wise it isn't a huge upgrade from the XM4's but they've upgraded the noise cancellation and the sidetone feature drastically. Solid buy nonetheless and my wife loves it which is the most important thing as a husband haha
