Sony WH-1000XM4 Headphones

Become one with the music

Discover how the WH-1000XM4 headphones combine the most advanced noise-canceling technology with superb sound quality and a host of smart features for an unparalleled listening experience

.

Advanced Noise Cancelling

Whether you're on a long-haul flight or visiting a café, the WH-1000XM4 headphones filter out even more high- and mid-frequency noise, giving you advanced noise-cancelling performance

.

The technology behind the optimized performance

The technology with two noise sensors and two microphones on each ear cup detects ambient noise and sends the data to the HD Noise-Cancelling Processor QN1. Using a new algorithm, the QN1 then processes and minimizes noise for different acoustic environments in real time. Together with a new Bluetooth® Audio SoC (System-on-Chip), it detects music and sound signals over 700 times per second, as well as acoustic characteristics between the driver unit and the ears.

Enhanced Noise Cancelling

Two technologies ensure the WH-1000XM4 headphones maximize noise cancellation: the personal noise-cancelling optimizer tailored for you and air pressure optimization specifically for air travel

.

Ambient Sound Control

Via the Sony Headphones Connect app, you adjust ambient noise to minimize it, but still hear important sounds like announcements when you're on the go.

Wireless freedom - high-quality sound

LDAC transmits about three times the amount of data (at a maximum transfer rate of 990 Kbps) as traditional BLUETOOTH® audio, so you can enjoy High-Resolution Audio content at nearly the same quality as wired connections

.

High-fidelity playback

The QN1 HD noise-cancelling processor incorporates an analog amplifier for unmatched signal-to-noise ratio, low distortion, and superior sound quality for portable devices. With 40mm drivers with liquid crystal polymer diaphragms, these headphones reproduce powerful bass as well as the full frequency spectrum up to 40kHz.

Recover all compressed files in real time

The DSEE Extreme™ (Digital Sound Enhancement Engine) optimizes digital music files in real time with Edge AI. By dynamically detecting instrumentation, musical style, and other characteristics of each track, such as vocals or pauses, it restores the high frequencies lost during compression for a listening experience with full detail.

Smart

Listening Technology for More Listening Pleasure

The WH-1000XM4 headphones are equipped with smart technologies that provide a seamless listening experience with hands-free operation: Speak-to-Chat feature automatically pauses the music when you speak, proximity sensor provides adaptive playback, and dual accelerometers detect whether or not the headphones are being worn.

Everyday usability with Speak-to-Chat

The intelligent Speak-to-Chat feature automatically pauses the music and switches to ambient sound when you're talking to someone. This allows you to converse even with headphones on, for example, when you don't have a hand free. Precise Voice Pickup technology, five integrated microphones, and advanced audio signal processing detect and respond to your voice. When you finish talking, the music automatically continues.
