Which Sony XM4s are you talking about? Sony is terrible at naming their products, the WH-1000XM4 are noise cancelling overear headphones, while the WF-1000XM4 are in ear ones. If you’re talking about the earbuds, try different tips.
Odd I have tested them in stores before and they are typically well rated.
However I was using Bose QC II for a few years and now I use the apple air pod pros.
For in ear seal is really important for nose canceling and apple also provides a test mode / app on apple devices to test that sound isn’t leaking substantially.
Makes no difference in a quiet environment but will easily cancel out a loud air conditioner or most traffic noise from passing cars.

The overear headphones. The ANC just made no difference.
Strange. Have you tried to RMA it?
No I just sold them. They weren’t worth the price.
