Best headphones
I’ve had them a few months and they’re soooo good! The make my sad music even sadder because of how loud and noise cancelling they are
Tilly, 18 - 24, Rossendale
Really good, but for the price I would expect more
They sound great, they feel comfortable, but I've had several technical issues with them in use with both my PC and phone. Like the audio being choppy while having multiple audio sources playing at once.
Azi, 25 - 34, Alloa
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

I'm actually amazed by how good the noise cancelling is. I sometimes forget about it in the gym, then take the headphones off to wipe the sweat off, and the gym music is ridiculously loud. Honestly the noise cancelling is fantastic, I can't hear any of the gym music with these on. The best I've experienced. I'm yet to use it on a plane but I imagine it will make sleeping during a flight much easier.

Apologies, without a Bluetooth adapter this won't be possible.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hi Tom,
Unfortunately not, if the proximity sensor part inside the left unit housing gets fogged up or there are water droplets on it due to condensation or humidity from sweat, etc., wearing detection may not work properly. When the sensor part is fogged up or there are water droplets on it, leave the proximity sensor part facing up until the moisture disappears.
