I was hoping these would be the wireless versions of my Sony MDR-7506 with active noise cancellation. My research pointed me to these & the Apple Airpods Max. The 7506 are perfect for long session and was hoping these would be an improvement, but I'm not quite sure. They're pretty comfortable, but sometimes after an hour can be uncomfortable due to the physical headphones, or the sound of active noise cancellation. I have AirPods Pro & am blown away by the noise cancellation & audio quality. For that reason the Air Pods Max probably would be the better fit for me since I'm not traveling with these headphones, BUT they are too expensive for my taste. I wasn't sure if the weight of those would become uncomfortable after long sessions.

I recently received the new Sony WH1000XM3 headphones to test out and review. After extensive use in my office and home environments and while traveling, I’m thoroughly impressed. Here are several noteworthy impressions I had. First, in addition to the superb sound quality you’d expect from Sony, the noise cancellation is outstanding. Whether I’m sitting on an airplane at 35,000 feet up, or sitting at my desk in a shared workspace with various other conversations taking place around me, these headphones silence the background noise and allow greater focus on the task at hand. Second, expect serious comfort. After wearing these headphones for hours at a time, on several different occasions, I have yet to feel any discomfort on or around my ears. I’ve used other noise-cancelling headphones, such as the Bose QC35, and in comparison, these Sony headphones are the first to not cause any discomfort after prolonged use, in my experience. Third, the battery life is excellent. According to Sony’s written specifications, the battery life totals 30 hours, and a 10-minute charge results in 5 hours of playback. On the first instance of running the battery down after plenty of use, I charged these headphones for around 20 minutes, and afterwards the battery was nearly full. Wow! Lastly, these headphones reflect genius design. Rather than clicking buttons, you can utilize easy touch operation by swiping your finger along the right ear cup. It took a few minutes to get used to it, but now it’s second nature and very convenient. Also, I love the “quick attention mode.” Simply cover the right ear cup with your hand, and it automatically turns the volume down and the noise cancellation off, allowing for spontaneous communications to be heard. I could go on and on about the other features I enjoy, but suffice it to say that I’m extremely impressed, and I look forward to using these headphones during work and travel for years to come.

I’ve had my Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones for a few weeks now, and I can’t imagine my life without them. The noise cancellation is out of this world—it’s like flipping a switch to shut out the chaos around me. Whether I’m on a noisy train or just trying to focus at home, these headphones create a bubble of pure peace. The sound quality is something else. Every song sounds full and vibrant, with deep bass that doesn’t overwhelm and clear, crisp highs. It’s like hearing my favorite music for the first time again. The touch controls took a little getting used to, but now I love how easy it is to manage playback or take calls without missing a beat. What really surprised me is how comfortable they are. I can wear them for hours without feeling any discomfort, which is a big deal for me since I often have them on during long work sessions. Plus, the battery life is impressive—I’ve gone days without needing to charge them. Overall, the Sony WH-1000XM4 has exceeded all my expectations. They’re not just great headphones; they’ve become a part of my daily routine. If you’re thinking about getting a pair, do it—you won’t regret it!

I like the build of these headphones. Better than the Sony MDR-7506, I feel like their is very little noise cancellation. Also I love the fact that you can remove the cable and use the coil ups or the thick straight one. Sound quality is great as well.

I use my headset almost daily. It’s comfortable, awesome sound, very well built. Unfortunately, no active noise cancellation but when you blast the volume to the Max, you’ll hardly hear anything else (I highly do not recommend that as it might damage your ears) Recommended purchase if you’re ever stuck on a gift for someone.

The purchase exeeded my expectations a lot. The active noise cancellation is exellent as well as the transparency mode. It offers great balance between the quality of the music you are listening to and the surrounding, ensuring that you are safe and enjoying the best at the same time. The feature to connect to multiple difeces at the same time is game changer and the degine of the buds is spectacular. Maybe the only thing that I find as a minus is that they do not have special gesture for voluming up and down, however you can customer it from the app. Maybe the brand should consider adding this as default feature.
