00:00Today we have a pair of over-the-ear headphones from Sony, the model WH-1000XM4s.
00:07This is going to come with both Google Assistant and Alexa compatible built-in.
00:13This is a wireless headset, it is Bluetooth compatible, and it has had noise-canceling features.
00:19So let's go ahead and get this open, see what we've got going on.
00:23Now to get the most out of it, there is an app that runs this headset.
00:27You can install that on both iOS's and Android devices.
00:33And we have our system manuals and whatnot in there.
00:37Here we have a really, really nice cloth case.
00:41It's semi-hard, which makes it a little bit safer for transport.
00:47And I love how the zipper tucks in there.
00:52Inside, we have the gem.
00:56Ooh, that's a nice little thing.
00:59A little extra headset connection for wired connection while on airplanes.
01:06And there's the connectors for that.
01:09So we've got a standard audio jack.
01:12We've got a USB to USB-C charger, which these are going to be charged through USB-C.
01:19And a unique folding design.
01:25I think I've seen that folding design.
01:27Right off the bat, this is very soft.
01:30That feels real plush.
01:33And over here, we have our custom setting, our power setting.
01:41That's our audio jack.
01:43And there's our C charger.
01:44And according to this diagram here, on the right ear headset, even though you can't see anything on this side,
01:57those are actually going to be your touch controls.
02:03So I'm going to get this charged up, read through the instructions, and then we can come back with my impressions on it.
02:10All right, so I've been using the Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones for a while.
02:17Now, I used the mobile regular, just straight up Bluetooth, and they were a pretty good headset.
02:22They have really good noise canceling, and they have some really powerful features.
02:27But to get the most out of this headset, you're really going to want to use the actual Sony Connect.
02:35Now, the reason being is, if you allow it, it will recognize what settings you're using where.
02:43So if you go to the library, if you go to school, if you go on the bus or whatever,
02:47it will recognize when you were making certain changes to the headset, and will start making those automatically.
02:54Now, that's one of the big, powerful things about the app.
02:59Now, the headset itself, very, very lightweight.
03:03It's easy to forget you're wearing it, especially the noise canceling.
03:08It is active.
03:11A lot of noise canceling headphones will just say, hey, noise canceling,
03:14and they will count on the padding, the seal, to do everything.
03:20That's not the case with these.
03:22These have a very, very active noise canceling, almost completely eliminating all ambient sound,
03:29which can be dangerous.
03:31If you need sound, you can, of course, go into the settings and turn the noise canceling off,
03:39as well as there's a quick button here underneath Custom.
03:44One tap, and it'll turn the noise canceling off.
03:46Or, just simply place your palm on the right headset, and it will dampen the noise canceling.
03:55It'll let sound through.
03:57The music will still play.
03:58It will be a lowered volume, and will pump audio from outside into the headset.
04:04And just take your hand off.
04:06It goes back to the music.
04:07This is a really, really nice headset.
04:11It's an amazing sound.
04:14We have some really good bass with it, some really good high ends,
04:18and the battery life is absolutely amazing.
04:21I would really recommend this headset.
