Our take on the Sony WH-1000XM4
The Sony WH-1000XM4 is a wireless noise-canceling headphone, a comfortable pick for monitoring and calls. At a tracked $298 it sits in the lower half of a $224.99 to $383.67 range since August 9, 2026, so a dip is possible.
The listing gives up to 30 hours of battery, a 10 minute charge for 5 hours of playback, touch controls and Bluetooth multipoint pairing. Five built-in mics handle calls. Those mics are for calls and chat, so a stream voice is better handled by a separate mic. It weighs 9 ounces. Retailer rating is 4.6 across 42,886 ratings, a very large sample.
