Rated 2 out of 5 by from Noise cancellation Worked Well, Fragile... These headphones worked as intended and I feel did a great job cancelling noise and worked great for music and online meetings for work which was my biggest use. However after two months they broke placing them on my head. No, I don't have a big head and I wasn't rough with them. They appear to have a weak spot in them. maybe they fixed this with the newer version. As you can see by the photo I had probably only put them on my head about 30 times.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from They work amazing - but one ear is getting staticy I bought them in Feb 2022 - they worked great all up until the last 2 trips I took. I only use them when I fly - as its the only time I need over the ear headphones. So total I probably used them around 30 times at an average of 2.5 hrs of use.. so VERY minimal use. and one of the ears has a lot of static when playing sound. it started off minimal but now its getting to the point where they are hard to use. hoping the warranty actually works out - since I got 1 month left. but we will see. updates to come when I find out.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Poor performance for what I wanted I bought this two years ago for listening to music while I practice dancing with other music playing. What I found out is that this head set is very sensitive to movement and it will turn on or off if I cough, moving my head a bit quickly. If all you need is to walk around and listen to music, then it is OK. However, after about half an hour or so, I found the tight headset is very uncomfortable. I have now been using my old Panasonic wired headset which is much comfortable than this. The noise cancellation works and music listening is fine. However, if you want to wear it for running or dancing, then look for something else.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best Headphones I've Owned [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are the best headphones I've ever owned. Period. It's not just that the noise-canceling capability is phenomenal (it is), it's also that the sound quality is fantastic. When I tried them out at home, I was stunned with the sudden silence they provided before listening to music. When I tried them on an airline flight, they not only provided magnificent sound with the engine noise gone (not just reduced) but also helped create a relaxing environment for the trip. The right ear has touch controls; just swipe a finger up/down for volume and forward/back for next or previous song. Cover the ear to quickly deactivate noise-canceling to hear announcements or conversations whenever needed. These headphones are simple, easy, and intuitive, and they're everything you would expect from Sony.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Screeching noise when ANC active Loved at first...but just over a year and I started getting this intermittent high-frequency screeching noise from the right ear cup...goes away when I turn ANC off... an internet search seems like I'm not the only one experiencing this issue. Since past warranty Sony was no help...for the price I would expect a little lee-way on a warranty for one year!?! I'm thinking of replacing but with my experience with the XM4 I thing I'll go with the Bose 700 v the XM5

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Difficult to pair Bought these for my wife. She could not pair them. I paired them for her but she found them difficult when switching from sources.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great headphones I bought these headphones from Sony online. I really enjoy the sound quality and the range of tones. Great bass. They easily pair with my Sony television.
Date published: 2022-11-24
Rated 1 out of 5 by from Didn't work a full year. I absolutely loved these at first, the quality seemed spectacular and legitimately life-changing. But they suffer from a common failure which leads to an extremely high-pitched and hearing-damaging squealing sound issuing unexpectedly from one side or the other. A quick search online shows this failure was not uncommon on the previous version as well. That being said, if you disable the feature, the headphones remain usable and are otherwise of good quality.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Unbelievable Like Hearing Music for the first Time I've had these Headphones for 4 Months now and have no idea how I lived without them. I've put close to 1000 Hours on them without even a Hiccup. They are hands down the best headphones out and would buy them 10 times over. The only thing I would recommend to sony us adding some more padding to the from ear inserts, I had to take mine off after about 600 hours and upgrade them to the aftermarket ones with thicker memory foam. Other than that they are amazing.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Better than Bose I needed a new pair of noise cancelling headphones to help with overstimulation. My last pair was Bose and initially I got a new model but it was horrible! I did more research and found a lot of good reviews about this product. Day one and it is already way superb to Bose. The noise cancellation is way better yet I can still hear the people I am talking to. I love the touch features instead of buttons.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Issues after 3 months of usage I bought this 3 months ago and I’m starting to have issues. The control panel will let me raise and lower volume but won’t let me play or pause videos/music. On top of that the equalizer doesn’t work anymore too, I’ve tried changing it in many ways but it all sounds the same. I rested it, cleaned the sensor softly, tried changing all the setting in the headphone app but to no avail.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Can't connect to app I can't connect to the app on any device so i can't update or use multiconnect for other devices. Noise cancelling is decent

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love the modes! I bought this a month ago and it’s so worth it! The quality is amazing and the different modes are really great for different situations. Love the noise cancelling and awareness mode! Definitely a 10/10, would recommend

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Totally worth it Honestly so worth the hype, I’m the kind of person where when I love I song I want the music to be loud enough where I can’t hear my thoughts and this does that! I’m not we’ll versed when it comes to tech and headphones but these sound amazing and let me nearly get blow my ears out when listening to music so I love them
Date published: 2022-08-14
Rated 1 out of 5 by from Great while they safe and work! I bought these a year and a half ago. I loved how they were comfortable and sounded until recently when they randomly started screeching this loud high pitch noise into my right ear! Honestly, I am very disappointed with this product quality given the high price tag. One thing is for them to break down, and another is to potentially damage someone's hearing. I will never recommend these to anyone and discourage anyone from buying them. You can find similar experiences on Reddit which means that this isn't an isolated event.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I love. I got these before I went on a trip to France bc I wanted noise cancelling headphones for my flight and istg I cannot take these things off and I got them weeks ago. They make music sound better and I never want to take them off.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent sound and very comfortable to wear Used these noise cancelling phones for the 1st time on a 15 hour flight. Very impressed by noise cancelling and clarity of music. Highly recommend

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Nice noise canceling but painful Nice sound and noise canceling but this is the first headset that hurt my ears. After 30 min i need to take a rest.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fantastic ergonomics One month review - excellent sound quality and comfort. I tried the xm5, bose qc 35, and qc 45, and Im very satisfied with the xm4's, it really comes down to personal preferences in re: ergonomics, but you cant go wrong with the m4.
Date published: 2022-06-22
Rated 1 out of 5 by from Disappointed My friend has them and told me not to get them, but I wanted them really bad so I didn’t listen (spoilers, I should’ve). Sound wise, they are average. Sound cancelation wise, they are more than excellent. So if you only listen to music, podcast, videos, etc, then they aren’t terrible (if we ignore the price tag). But if you will be using them for zoom calls, ft, or any activity that would require using the microphone, I wouldn’t recommend. I will say, they are elegant. I returned them and in the process I found out that Sonys customer service exceptional.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing headphones I bought these headphones since I was in need of some noise canceling headphones and they are amazing, 10/10
Date published: 2022-05-16
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Worth it I was a little hesitant to spend so much on headphones, but they are totally worth it. I'm autistic and it's impossible to get anything done with the background noise my roommates make (constantly and very loud!). These have completely changed my ability to work. I am so focused and not nearly so agitated. They are worth the money for sure.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great. I have a very loud household, with an almost 2 year old who likes to scream. The noise cancellation is KEY and works so well. These also seem to fit my ears well and stay in better than another popular brand!
Date published: 2022-01-21
Rated 3 out of 5 by from Sounds great….but…. We bought this for my wife in August 2021. Now less than 3 months these headphones will no longer take a charge, besides that they sound awesome.
