Sony WF-1000XM4


An alleged photo of the Sony WF-1000XM4 has leaked in grainy glory on Reddit, and we couldn't be more excited. Why? Well, the WF-1000XM3 made active noise-cancellation a reality before it was cool and offer it with battery life that was double what the competition offered at that moment. While some caught up, the WF-1000XM3 is still one of the top pairs of wireless ANC earbuds you can grab, and we can only imagine what a successor would bring. The bud is still painted in black and gold, though, as the XM3 model, yet it eventually will sport new memory foam ear tips.

If there was one complaint about the otherwise great WF-1000XM3 it was the size used to achieve its pretty amazing battery life autonomy even without the case. Seemingly, that's what Sony may be rectifying with the WF-1000XM4 for one more crack at the top wireless earbuds pedestal later in the year when they'll have to face the next Apple AirPods Pro 2 instalment.
