Best headphones I've had

I've had these 24 hours now and I'm blown away, I'd forgotten how good music actually is when you can hear every detail. They are easy to use stylish and very comfortable

Very good sound experience

I purchased these headphones after trying my friends while on holiday, they are so good I decided to buy my granddaughter a pair. Last night I connected them to my Sony TV and had an immersive movie experience. The sound quality and various modes are extremely good, making these headphones good value for what I paid.

Great help for my deafness

I don't normally spend a lot on headphones but due to my hearing loss I find it difficult to understand voices but with the help of a Curry's member of staff on trying the headphones I find I can hear speech much easier. I mainly use them for TV So for me they are great

Don't waste your money

Anytime you clear your throat or cough or sing or even just open your mouth they turn off it is extremely annoying!

Great premium headphones

I've had these for about a month and it has been a great experience. Pros: - comfortable to wear as they are over the ears - decent noise cancellation - high quality audio, it feels like a party every day - love that it's foldable, amazing for travelling - long battery life Cons - can feel pretty heavy after a while - sometimes it makes my ears sweat, but i live in a tropical climate - it doesn't cancel out voices, only white noise

Sony XM4 Review

Bought this a month ago after a lot of considering. Finally decided to go with Sony as it is a well known and trusted brand. Sound quality and ANC is excellent, with strong bass. A little pricey though.

Love that you can switch between NC & Ambient !!

Absolutely love these headphones they're amazing for noise cancellation and the fact that I can switch from noise cancellation to turning on ambient sound for when I'm riding my scooter or walking or biking so I can still hear what's going on around me but then I can also choose to my noise cancellation turned on if I feel like just listen to music the sound is amazing and I love that I can download the app and adjust the settings to exactly the way I like them so any makes the best headphones!!

Amazing product

I recently purchased the Sony WH-1000XM4, and it has exceeded my expectations in every way. The sound quality is outstanding, with deep bass, clear vocals, and excellent balance across all frequencies. The noise cancellation is truly world-class - it completely blocks out surrounding noise, making it perfect for travel, work, or study sessions. The comfort level is great; the headphones are lightweight and fit snugly without any pressure, even after hours of use. I also love the battery life, which easily lasts a full day, and the quick charge feature is super convenient. Additional features like multi-device connectivity, touch controls, and speak-to-chat make the overall experience seamless. It's a premium product that delivers exactly what it promises - superb sound, comfort, and convenience. Absolutely worth the investment. Highly recommended!

Comfortably fitting headset

My daughter recommended this make and brand as she has a set herself. My reason for investing is I need quiet in which to sleep next to my husband who snores. Although I've discovered I need a more concentrated noise cancellation at times, on the whole, this set has my sleep times covered. I love the ambient feature, too, if I am listening to a podcast and want to also listen out for the doorbell. These headphones sit very comfortably on my head. Sleeping with them is what you might expect if you do not sleep solely on your back - they're a bit lumpy! I also found the 2 small buttons on bottom left of the headset is a bit fiddly to use in the night. I assume that my sleeping with the headset on might otherwise inadvertently push the button which would be even more disrupting to my sleep, so not sure if a slightly larger button with a sliding cover opening from the top down over the button might work? I loved the choice of turning on Bluetooth and the ability to hardwire when preferred. I only gave 4 stars because of having to sleep only on my back with them, the fiddly small buttons when used during sleep and that I can still be woken by hearing occasional and excessive loud snoring but I believe that is not the issue of this set of headphones, rather, I needed to purchase a model with greater noise cancellation. Overall, I am really very pleased with my purchase of WH-1000XM4 wireless noise cancelling headphones

Comfortable and effective

Have been using these headphones and happy with the noise cancellation. They are comfortable for a 4 hour flight. Not quite sure about using the ambient sound and the finger tap doesn't always work for me.

After a few years of hesitation I finally bought the WH-1000XM4 a couple weeks ago. And I dont regret at all ! The sound quality and the comfort are incedible !

Excellent pair of headphones.

Only been using these for a week or so. Upgraded from a pair of wh-720. These are definitely a big step up both in terms of sound quality and noise cancelling. The ability to control the settings through the mobile app is also a bonus. The touch controls are possibly a bit of a gimmick, but do work well. Having said that, the ability to mute the volume and boost the ambient sound by putting a hand over the earcup does work really well and is a feature that I genuinely use. Overall, I'd definitely recommend these headphones, especially as they can now be purchased far cheaper than they were a year or two ago.

Great features and sound quality.

Replaced a pair of Bose quiet comfort which had started to power up on its own. Complained to Bose who weren't interested. These are much better and you can connect two devices at same time allowing you to check batery and change levels on one device while listening on the other.

I upgraded from the Sony headphones XM2 to this version XM4. The active noise cancellation and audio quality is noticeably improved. I will be using them everyday for remote working for video calls and to help reduce background noise. The build quality is fantastic with a lighter weight design. I'm looking forward to using the multiple Bluetooth connections feature and appreciate the headphone settings cloud backups.
