Easily the best headphones for Audiophiles

I bought this years ago and have tried many other headphones and earbuds since, and nothing has compared to these. The sound quality alone puts it in a category above the rest but the noise cancellation solidifies that it's in a league of its own.

Amazing

After hours of research, I decided on the Sony WH-1000XM4. I was traveling and I needed something noise canceling. Everything is top notch for me with this headset. The fit is great. The sound is amazing. Truly noise canceling. I have recently started listening to audio books before drifting off to sleep. Even laying on a pillow the comfort is better than I could have asked for.

The sound and the noise canceling is very high-quality very comfortable to wear, especially when my wife is watching something different on TV. I can watch something without disturbing her. I use my headphones, mostly with my 13 inch iPad. The only issue I notice is sometimes it turns itself off and I’m not sure why it does that. Maybe there’s something in settings that I’m not familiar with.

Hi Paris,<br /><br />Thank you for your review! We&#39;re glad you&#39;re enjoying the sound and comfort of your headphones. Regarding them turning off, this is likely due to the &#34;Automatic Power Off&#34; feature. Please check the Sony Headphones Connect app, as you can adjust or disable this setting there.<br /><br />Thanks for choosing Sony.<br /><br />Best regards,<br />Eliab

Amazing Sound AND Features

I received Sony - WH-1000XM4 Wireless Noise-Canceling Headphones as a gift from my father-in-law. I'd been researching brands and models for months and finally asked for advice from someone more knowledgeable than me. My father-in-law decided he'd just buy me the same ones he bought for himself. The sound quality is phenomenal and the features included are fantastic. Super comfortable, durable and decent color selection. I love them!

Best sound with flaws

Let me cut to the chase. Doesn't fit great. Loose when wore. Slides down when you tilt your head. Sound quality when taking calls is awesome. People on the other side of the call can hear your background noise. But they hear you very clear. Battery lasts upto 3 weeks of office calls.

Hi NanRoss,<br /><br />We appreciate your detailed feedback on the WH-1000XM4. It’s fantastic you&#39;re getting awesome call clarity and three weeks of battery life! We sincerely apologize for the loose fit and the amount of background noise being picked up by the mic. For the noise, please check the Sony | Headphones Connect app and try lowering the Sidetone setting, which controls how much external sound the mic allows in. For the fit, ensure the headband is adjusted to the smallest setting; a simple headband cushion can sometimes help prevent slipping. If the noise issue persists, please contact us directly at https://www.sony.com/contact for personalized support.<br /><br />Thanks for choosing Sony.<br /><br />Best regards,<br />Eliab

Overall great pair of true wireless headphones

Just received my Sony WF-SP800N True wireless headphones, and I am very impressed. Here's my list of requirements for headphones: 1. True wireless 2. Must stay snug while working out 3. Music playback should be awesome 4. Active Noise cancelling 5. Comfortable 6. Minimal profile the WF-SP800N headphones meet all of the above criteria. Better than any other true wireless headphones on the market. I'm impressed with the music playback, comfort of fit, and snugness while working out. I love the ANC, and Adaptive Ambient Sound features, but the Adaptive ambient sound needs to allow for a little louder ambient sounds when set to max. There's not a lot of difference between that and just turning off ANC/Ambient sound altogether. When I set ambient sound to max, I want to hear everything clearly in my surroundings, and still hear my music. Right now, I have to turn the music down to almost nothing in order to hear someone talking to me. Even with the Voice Focus enabled. I don't mind turning the music down a bit, but shouldn't have to turn it down all the way. I appreciate the app and the equalizer, and I really appreciate the bass boost! I've seen a few reviews saying the ANC is excellent, and I have to say, I got better performance from my Airpod Pros, but I am new to these headphones and it's possible I'm still needing to do a little adjusting (i.e. earplug size). The headphones do protrude from your head a little, but I'm willing to deal with that due to all the other great features.

Good except IP rating

At this price point I feel they should have better water Ingress protection. Also I have experienced a issue where if either my wife or I enter Bluetooth range while the other is using them it kicks off the other and the person using them has to pull out their phone and reconnect to the headphones. A confirmation to switch while already connected would have been nice.

Good sound but charging system to be improved

Sound is great and design ensure a good stability inside the hear The 3 buds allow you to find the one that will feat you Blue tooth synchronization is easy Case is necessary to load the headphone. The case was working well 2,5 month, but unfortunately it does not work anymore. This is the only weakness of the product, there is no back up to charge the headphone.

Poor craftsman’s ship

I bought them for my husband. They were dead in the box when we opened it, so an immediate charge was necessary to even turn them on and they wouldn’t turn on while they were charging. After about 2 1/2 days of usage he was convinced that they were nothing like what he expected. We have a pair of Sony SRS-XB343’s that are pretty tough to beat ( as a pair, through Music Center). At the same time we were trying to figure out why it had to be charged again so soon. It might have been on, without ANC on, for no more than 24 hours. Needless to say, the disappointment ended as I plugged it in and the charging port melted. So if you asked me would I buy them again- absolutely not. He loves music too much to put him through that again. He reluctantly popped his buds back in and said, “. At least we know for sure now because we tried them ourselves.” (Himself really, I just had to laugh through it…😇☀️)
