Posted .Hi JubileeG,
We're glad you upgraded from the WH-1000XM3! We're sorry to hear about the discomfort, as new headphones can have a firmer clamping force initially. This typically improves as they break in over time, but you may find relief by slightly extending the headband sliders. You can find more tips on achieving the best fit here: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2984/v1/en/contents/TP1001861255.html
