WH-1000XM4 Hinge Swivels as Same as The OEM XM4 Hinge Spins Replacement Parts Accessories Compatible with Sony WH-1000XM4 Noise Cancelling Headphones (Black)

Works!!!! I’m a girl (21) and I did it! Yes I did panic but watching the vid made my worries go away! Been broken for over a month and so happy to be listening to my music again!!! Good thing I bought the left and the right cause I just found out that my left one is broken as well lol.

I've had 3 pairs of Sony XM4s break. Unfortunately, I didn't realize the other ones could be repaired so easily, and they were thrown away. My current pair broke a few days ago, which is when I stumbled across a Reddit post talking about replacing the hinge swivel. Most other sites that sold the part were only selling 1 side for about the same price that I paid for both sides on Amazon. I used 2 videos from Central Sound on YouTube to follow along for the replacement; they have one for each side since they are different. The left side was easier and took about 10-15 minutes. The right side had more delicate parts to disconnect and move, so it took me about 20-25 minutes. Only the left side was broken, but I decided to replace both. Both replacements were successful, and the headphones are now good as new!

Just what I needed as someone with literally no tools. Found a video on YouTube and was easily able to replace the part. So far they are both lasting well, although it feels as though the swivel is more liberal than before.

I used the grey set on my black headset because the shipping was faster. I bought both and was going to do both at the same time. However after seeing how involved one side was (i broke my left side hinge) im just going to keep the other as a spare for if the right one goes. The sound and anc did not change at all after install. The tools provided are reasonable quality as long as you dont try and screw everything down like its engine headbolts. Its a plastic headset, a couple foot pounds is more than enough. Just tighten screws till they stop then an 1/8th turn when you are putting them back together. This was not super easy but if you are good at diy stuff you should be able to do it. Part fits like the original did before it broke. However being priced at 35$ for the set of hinges, good quality tools, and a link to a video on how to install them you cant beat that. The part of the phillips head screwdriver thats orange spins so you can have that against your palm while tightening down the screws. The plastic part actually seems to be a tiny bit thicker than the original. So maybe it will hold up. Over all I give it 5 stars due to the kit's bargain value.

Really good part , I was able to fix my swivel issue with this part myself.

Shame on Sony. Unless you have a golden sample, it's not a matter of IF the swivels on your ear cups will snap or crumble, but WHEN. The internet, especially reddit is littered with posts on this exact issue. Mine failed after barely six months of regular use. I could've submitted a request for RMA, but repair or replacement by Sony is not guaranteed. I've come across various posts that suggest Sony has not honored perfectly legitimate warranty claims by rightfully upset customers for these products. So thankfully, this swivel repair kit available is and is a perfect option for handy and tech savvy folks like me who wish to preserve the usability or extend the lifespan of their expensive (albeit cheaply made) Sony WH-1000XM4 headsets for what is (hopefully) many years to come.

A+ the hinge works perfectly. I thought I had to send the equipment to Sony to get it repair but with this product and a youtube tutorial, i was able to repair it myself in less than 30 minutes. Highly recommended. The package comes with everything you need to repair it.

Fit perfectly on the xm4s and fixed the problem. My headphones broke at the hinge and there was a super easy tutorial on youtube.
