Maybe not enough of a generation leap to upgrade to
Microphone quality could have been better, No aptX or aptXHD support, Touch controls are iffy, ShareTweetShare
You can probably guess how impressed the XM4 has left me and I'm not the least bit surprised about it. The choices are very few when you choose to invest Rs 30,000 on a pair of headphones. It was a neck-to-neck between Bose and Sony for a while but the XM...
Beautiful, natural sound quality, Next-level active noise cancellation, Premium build and design, Tons of features and customization, Solid battery life
Pretty expensive, No more aptX codecs, Features can be complicated
The unsurprising kingThe better noise cancellation, the flatter, more natural sound quality, the slightly more comfortable feel, and the tried-and-true build quality all make the Sony WH-100XM4 a no-brainer if your pockets are deep enough. Whether you nee...
Abstract: Noise-cancelling headphones used to be only a Bose specialty for many years. Over the past few years, things have changed drastically as many competitors have come to the challenge. Sony has been the one to really overthrow them in my opinion as well as o...
Abstract: Sony and Bose have been slugging it out at the top of the Active Noise Canceling (ANC) headphone heap for a few years now. Sony cemented its position as a leader in the space with the release of the WH-1000XM3 ANC headphones in 2018, and now the new WH-10...
Abstract: Think for a moment about companies known for making great headphones. Sennheiser and Focal almost certainly come to mind nearly instantly, as do Audeze and HiFiMan. PSB and NAD probably made your list, along with companies like Grato and Beyerdynamic. But...

Superb active noise cancellation and overall sound quality, multipoint Bluetooth pairing, auto-pause, relatively comfortable for most people,
Expensive
The Sony WH-1000XM4 offers field leading sound quality backed up by field leading noise cancellation. If you're looking for the best possible headphones with which to enjoy music. Drown out distractions, or both, these definitely deserve your consideratio...

Abstract: Its time to revisit the Sony vs Shure battle for brand superiority. This godforsaken year has brought us two of the leading innovators in wireless over-ear headphones delivering new cans for us to listen to. Those are the Shure AONIC 50, and the Sony WH-...

Noise-Canceling, Wireless connection, Good battery,
Overpriced, average signature, Sony WH-1000XM4 is available at Audio 46, MAJORHIFI may get a commission from retail offers
Despite having a ton of features, and still reigning king in noise-cancellation technology, I'm still not very into this line as much as some people are. The signature doesn't impress me when comparing it to other wireless headphones like the Strauss and...
Fantastic noise cancelling, Very accurate sound for ANC headphones, Proximity based auto play/pause, LDAC codec support, Terrific app experience
Edge-AI upscaling doesn't add much, Touch controls still have a learning curve, You can't use LDAC with multipoint Bluetooth
The Sony WH-1000XM4 is the successor to what are widely considered to be the best active noise cancelling headphones on the market. While the feature upgrades are minimal, they are nonetheless welcome...
