As an ex-Bose NC700 owner, I can resoundingly say this is a significant enough of an upgrade in nearly all areas. The sound quality destroys the Bose. ANC is on-par but outstrips Bose in feature sets. Comfort dominates the NC700 bc it doesn’t pinch your head or ears, especially if you wear glasses or sunnies. One area it needs to improve on is the self-voice that’s heard from the headphones as it’s currently very muffled and unnatural. Bose did this right by having the option to tweak how much one’s own voice can be heard over a call.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are amazing headphones. First, they are super comfortable. I like that the padding is soft on my ears and they aren't at all hot or sweaty. The band is comfortable as well, fitting snugly but not so tight that it would hurt an average sized head. I had no problem setting up the app, and when I paired the bluetooth with my computer it was quick and easy. Of course, the sound is what's important, and I find these to have clear, crisp sound and the noise cancelling feature works perfectly. Another plus is that you can just use them as regular wired headphones if you just want to plug them into something that doesn't have bluetooth. I love that, because sometimes I'm using an older device that needs "regular" headphones I feel like these are great quality, work well and have the versatility to use with bluetooth or with a wire. I recommend them.

Jumped up from a pair of Bose QC15's owned for many a year. Tried out the two newest Bose models as well as the XM3. Decided to wait on the XM4 release. My expectations for sound quality in any pair of cans with noise cancellation not too high, but using the EQ in the app I have it where it is acceptable, and actually quite good. Comfort is acceptable which is all one can expect (ears still get warm with extended use). Features are really nice. Overall I'm glad I waited (months) and purchased the XM4.

I never thought I would buy wireless headphones for playing music. I thought you would get better sound quality out of wired headphones. I was wrong. And the best thing about these headphones is the Audio Bluetooth Codec's that are supported A2DP connection: SBC, AAC, and LDAC. so if you have Hi definition records you can listen to them at their full fidelity

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone who has never had a “high-end” pair of headphones these are absolutely incredible. The sound is perfect – deep, rich and with great range. They also offer 360 Reality Audio (with accompanying subscription or trial to compatible streaming service), which is mind blowing. It’s a totally immersive surround sound experience for your headphones. The noise-cancellation feature works well – low level background noise (air conditioner, keyboard clicks, etc) are totally removed while louder noise are substantially muted. Comfort while wearing is good but my ears do feel a bit squeezed after wearing for more a couple hours – hoping that goes away with more frequent usage. The Bluetooth connection is easy to setup, stable and allows up to 2 devices to connect to the headphones at the same time. Most settings are managed through the app - I'd prefer to skip another app install but it’s light and well organized. There are also some interesting software features that I wasn’t expecting like ambient noise control, which changes the level of ambient sound that’s blocked based on location or activity (think, more cancellation in a seated environment vs more ambient noise for awareness while walking on the street). Speak-to-chat is another handy feature that turns off the noise cancelling when you start to talk. The touchpad on the ear is also a convenient way to control volume, tracks, play/pause and answer calls. Overall, I’m very impressed with these headphones and would highly recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is amazing how well it works. U can hear nothing and can literally forget where u are ! The sounds is pristine and I will never use anything else! The cushion inside the headset is amazing. They are so incredibly comfortable than it’s no bother to wear them and I literally have to hide them from my girls!

The headphones have been the best thing I have bought this year. The specs are insane especially when comparing charge speed and battery life. Easy to set up and works great with apps like spotify, tidal and audible. Thanks to the noice canceling I can focus on work without distractions. The smart features work great and are a great addition. The headphones also fit great and are comfortable no matter how long you wear them. For me this was a real surprise since my earshape normally disagrees with headsets.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I. love. These. That is all!! But honestly they are great. They block out sounds and immerse you in the music or podcast that you are listening to. They feel on your ears don’t cause much fatigue and they seem pretty durable though I didn’t get to put it through too much of a wear and tear situation. I am very much looking forward to using these on my next flight

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pair of headphones are amazing, the quality of sound meets all of my expectations. The noise canceling is for real, once you have these headphones on you are in your own world. The battery charge lasts quite a long time. The design of the headphones is slick and modern, they look expensive. What more can you ask for, the product performs and looks great! Well worth every penny.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been a long time user of another brand of wireless noise-canceling headphones (the company starts with a B). I figured it was time to try out a new pair. I've been very pleasantly surprised by how well this set of wireless noise-canceling headphones. Here are my favorite features: • REALLY long battery life. I wear these wireless noise-canceling headphones most of the day on conference calls and typically only need to charge them once a week. My other pair I had to charge nightly. • Comfort - These are very comfortable to wear -- even for extended periods. • Smart Control - I love that these automatically pause music/playback when you take them off. Ingenious! The gesture controls built in for volume are also a nice touch. • Adjustable EQ - You can adjust the playback to suit your needs. Highly recommended!
