Product Reviews

Great noise cancelling. Comfortable. Superb reproduction.

Bought these for the 2nd time. Also have the buds. They are for different usage scenarios. I honestly found the xm5s to be lighter and more comfortable but did not think they gripped as well. There was a lot of movement when moving my head. I am not and audiophile so for me there was not enough of a difference or in fact a substantial notable difference. Also for me the killer feature is them folding into their case, especially for travelling where they get used most. I spent about an hour trying on both these and the new 5s, although heavier (by no means uncomfortable.) (Just used them to Las Vegas and back) With no issues regarding long term wear. I also think they feel structurally stronger than the 5s. Again ideal for travelling or hangng around neck. Totally recommend!!

Purchased on my way to our holiday. Had a look a the vast range available from numerous manufacturers, but finally settled on this product. So glad I did. You will not be disappointed. Easy to setup and use.

We bought this last month during the uob fair. It has been a most awesome experience so far!

nice product great sound quality also when Was last update my battery gone so I have to order new batery

I bought this a month ago and I really enjoyed it especially its features. Also, initially, I thought it can be only connected to androids phone/ iphone but I was shocked when it connected to my TV. I am really happy that I bought this!

My boyfriend cannot be without these headphones. Great service from Sony too.

Great sound canceling head phones, on the train silence, great how they adapt from knowing when I'm on a train to when I get off the train!! Brilliant purchase

Great quality both in sound and comfort. Additional benefits when linked to the SONY app. Love the features of sound stops once headphones removed during listening. Placing palm of hand flat covering right hand speaker housing automatically mutes sound in order to have a conversation without removing headphones entirely. Was looking at higher named brands with prices to match. These were best for your money, more features and £100. Cheaper. Very satisfying !

I was torn on whether invest on these headphones or stick to cheaper ones, however I am glad I decided to go for these ones. The set up on my devices was easy and without fuss, the noise cancellation is great, they are quite comfortable around the ears however if you have not worn headphones for a long time like me, it might hurt your head, it’s a bit uncomfortable but definitely not unbearable. Highly recommend them.

Great sound and very good noise cancelling. My only niggle would be around build quality that falls short of some of the competition, but for the price I don’t think they can be bettered.

Enjoyed using it! Design is cool. Comfortable. Easy to use. Great sound quality

Item was received today, so first impressions only. Very comfortable head-fitting, firm enough at least for sedentary use. Very soft earpad, so fitted easily over my spectacles, and over my behind-the-ear hearing aids. Easy pairing with Samsung tablet Galaxy Tab A8 running Android version 14. The sound (classical, and pop/folk) was fantastic, but bear in mind that I am elderly with limited sound frequency range. I didn't notice any sound lag when watching videos, with my tablet a few feet away.

I buy this a month ago and tried the xm5. Not gonna lie xm4 still worth in 2024

When I first purchased my headphones, I struggled at first to control the volume and backwards and forward direction features, which are the basic expectations around control operability. I was initially frustrated and considered returning the headphones, but I managed to work out that you simply stroke upwards/downwards for volume control. Stroke up or down and keep your finger pressed to achieve your desired volume. Stroke left or right to skip forward/backward. The feature where you cover the earpiece with your hand when having a conversation with someone in the room is clever because the music lowers and the headphones allow the outside in. You can also tap to start and stop your music listening or movie watching. When the headphones detect that they're not on your head, it pauses media content. Clever. All functionality is on the right-hand side earpiece. The quality of the material on the earpiece is durable, unlike my old Beats headphones which were poor quality and looked tatty, which is a pity because they sounded good. Sony has ticked all my expectations when it comes to producing quality headphones which use intelligent technology. Great value for money!

I bought this last month and when I open it, I found it can be folded up which was covienence and save space. And when I try the headphones, I was really surprised how wonderful the sound is, together with the noise cancelling.

This i have bought headphones a new TV, dvd player and an Xperia 1 Vi.

I am so happy about the Headphone, it is very good

Sound quality is very good and can be easly adjusted via the app the head set is a perfect fit on the head making them confortable to wear for a long period of time.

Bought these a month ago , great sound quality, easily adjustable and light

Bought this for almost a month. Using in classes as there were very noisy people around and it was able to cancel about 85% of their noise

Really good price for a top product. I have not found any problems with these headphones, App is excellent and allows you to fine tune the sound and control the settings. Great sound and noise cancelling, very comfortable.

bought these to go with my new phone and they are amazing! so comfy and fit my head perfectly, sound quality is brilliant and the noise cancelling is so good

It was very useful for me and makes me happy everytime

Glad I went for the WH-1000XM4 . Terrific sound very detailed with good bass low down. Great battery life.

It’s great quality for the price and the additional features is very practical

My first headphones. Easy to set up and use. My health is not good at the moment so really useful piece of kit.

received them as a present and they are perfect. brilliant

Bought this headphones about a month ago. I was hoping to but ULT wear but then decided to go with MX4 as it is more feature enriched and a premium choice from the two of them. But personally I feel the qpp experience can be enriched more for smoother use. The widget of the app should have the ability to change the headphones from ambient to noise cancelling mode. Moreover the custom button is not actually a custom button rather a series of choices. The user should be given more control on the custom button features. Overall the build quality and sound quality is great. But as a product of premium segment care should be given to software along with the hardware of the product.

I bought this xm4 headphones a month ago and I very enjoyed while using it in any conditions.Sound quality is superb even it is launced 4 years ago!! LOVE sony product so much.My last word is dont compare the prices,but compare the quality.

Bought this weeks ago so far so good, 5/5 but earpads and cushions could be better i think

Yet another awesome headphones made by Sony and definitely worth the buy for those wanting a noise cancelled audio headset. However won't recommend this if you are looking to use this for talking as the microphone quality is very average. I you made calls and if you were in a surrounding with any noise, chances of being heard is minimal and everything around you is very high. I also feel the head band is a tad too tight and chances are it may end up breaking in a year or two.

The only reason I gave it 4 star instead of 5 in design is because the earhead is slightly larger than my ear so If I use it for longer time the neck area below the ear starts to become sore..... Other than that to problem everything about it is great the NC, bass, the ambient sound, 360 audio.

I love the sound and I appreciate that only uses 3.5mm jacks for it's wire. My work pc doesn't allow bluetooth connections so being able to use audio jacks is important to me. The sound is great and it is very convenient to use, especially when connected to 2 devices.

The headphones was a gift - I am so happy to be able to use it during my 15 hours long haul flights. It cancelled out the noise of the plane so well. When I had to charged the headphones becos battery was low the headphones from the airline cannot compare at all even though it supposedly had noise cancelling features. The product finishing is lovely. It was also comfortable as I had it on throughout the flight duration.

Fantastic for Autism, noise cancelling Fantastic, sound quality Fantastic. Very lightweight and easy to wear. Set up straightforward, cup over ears really well. So far so good...worth the money !

The XM4s are a fantastic product. I've had them for a few weeks and find myself reaching for them more often than my other headphones. Their convenience and features make them my go-to headphones. However, some of my other cans give a bit more regarding sound quality, like the Hifiman HE-R9 and Hifiman Deva Pro with the Hifiman Bluemini DAC. The convenience of the XM4, especially within an Apple ecosystem, is unbeatable. The only issue I have is the product registration for the extended warranty and use of some of the features in the Sound Connect (nee Headphones Connect). This is very frustrating since I really want to avail of the extended warranty and the app's personalization feature. Ironically, Sony makes it difficult to register the product but has easily contacted me to write a review. Please fix this, Sony. You could've gotten five stars.

Brought these to replace my jbl tour one mk2 as was very disappointed by them and these are miles better they have better sound and better noise cancelling

I have already bought 3 sets of these for family and friends. I use them daily but most important when travelling and on the plane.

I bought these to replace my ageing Bose Quietcomfort headphones which had stopped working and after a brief learning curve mastering the controls I've been delighted with the sound quality and comfort to date. I've yet to try them on a flight which is probably the ultimate noise cancelling test but I don't expect to be disappointed.

I find the Sony WH-1000XM4 to be a reliable, feature-packed set of headphones, combining high-quality sound with advanced noise-cancelling technology. It's an excellent choice for both casual listeners and professionals alike

Got it recently as I’m looking for a better headphone after owning a lower range Sony headphone, after much research and reading review of those who own this, can say it’s one of the best headphone after experiencing myself. Highly recommend for those who looking for one! Value for quality and money!

very good very nice i want to buy again very nice ey
