Adhiper XM4 Replacement Ear Pads for Sony WH-1000XM4 (WH1000XM4) Noise Canceling Headphones, Upgraded Cooling Gel Earpads Cushions with Noise Isolation Memory Foam & Softer Protein Leather (Black)

After 3 years of solid wear of my MX4 the ears pads were looking gross. Very easy to install- simply use the enclosed tool to click out the old and then pop the new ones into place. Press firmly until you hear a click and they are done. Immediately I could tell there was a better seal around my ears as the noise cancelling went up a notch. The pads do have a cooling effect which will be nice when I wear them all day at work.

Das ANC wird um einiges schlechter und auch die Audio-Qualität leidet.

Based on my title, you're probably thinking "why 5 stars ". Because it still does what it says it will do. They feel way lighter on my ears and are better for mowing and the gym. However, im sitting poolside now with a waterfall nearby. There is a rushing sound that doesn't exist on my other ear cups. Theyre so easy to switch out I could do an A B comparison because of this. The waterfall wooshing sound goes away completely with the original pads but they were sweaty within minutes in florida humidity. The gel pads are so comfortable but because its lighter there is some sound that passes through. Because it does what it says it's still 5 stars. You should just know what you value most.

They are not comfortable at all if you compare them to the original. They actually hurt my ears after long period of time. They are just not for me.

Product was easy to install to the headset and also had a tool to help with the installation process.
