The XM4 is the whole package for true wireless earphones. If its industry-leading noise-canceling technology for $279 won't convince you then perhaps the impressive 360 reality audio features and high-resolution Bluetooth will. The battery life is better...

The Sony WF-1000XM4 earbuds offer overall good performance and exceptional call quality. However, they are far from a good value, especially if you don't particularly care about making phone calls using your earbuds...
Clear, crisp, accurate sound with plenty of EQ setting and LDAC support, The XM4s and their case are much smaller than the bulky XM3 earbuds, Comes with high-quality foam eartips instead of silicone, Best-in-class for earbuds, and almost as good as over-e
The XM4s are big and may not be comfortable for some people, At $279.99, the XM4s are $50 more expensive than the already spendy XM3s were, Only the right earbud works solo unless you disable voice assistant features, No option to connect seamlessly to mu
WF-1000XM49/10Yes, as long as you can swing the admittedly high cost. The WF-1000XM4 earbuds are even more expensive than the last-gen buds, and those were by no means cheap. However, your $280 buys you the best true wireless earbuds I've ever used. The a...

Sony has dominated the ANC true wireless earbud market the past couple of years with the WF-1000XM3. The follow-up had to be something really special and address the few flaws of the previous generation.Fortunately, Sony delivered big time with the WF-100...

The Sony WF-1000XM4 are some of the best sounding, best noise canceling earbuds you can buy. They're not without their quirks, and call quality is still an area of improvement, but they remain one of the most impressive sounding earbuds available today...

Incredibly powerful active noise cancellation, Excellent battery life, Excels at a wide array of musical styles, IPX4 and wireless charging support now added
No Bluetooth Multipoint, Voice call performance is only average
It feels a little like Sony overheard all the times I recommended the old WF-1000XM3, and took my caveats to heart. 2021's WF-1000XM4 are smaller, lighter, sound better and last longer, and their ANC gets you so close to what Sony does with its full headp...
