Sony WF-1000XM4 Experience

Even clearer sound, even less noise

The WF-1000XM4 provides industry-leading noise cancellation – now even better. The newly designed Integrated Processor V1 provides even better noise cancellation.

Specially developed by Sony, the Integrated Processor V1 takes the noise cancellation performance of Sony’s acclaimed QN1e chip and goes even further.

The WF-1000XM4 features high performance dual noise sensor microphones for excellent noise cancellation. By having two noise sensing microphones per ear – one feed-forward, and one feed-back – ambient noise is heard and analyzed, resulting in highly accurate noise cancellation.

A newly designed 6mm driver unit with a 20% increase in magnet volume also improves the WF-1000XM4’s noise-cancelling capabilities.

The increase in magnet volume and the high compliance diaphragm give improved performance in low frequencies and enhance noise canceling by generating a high-precision cancellation signal to the low-frequency range.

Newly developed Noise Isolation Earbud Tips provide an improved fit with the WF-1000XM4.

The new earbud tips are made from a unique polyurethane foam material that is soft and elastic, which maximizes the surface contact area between the earbud tip and the ear canal.

This eliminates gaps to insulate sound and reduce noise, as well as improving adhesion to the ear canal for a more stable fit.

Exceptional sound quality

The WF-1000XM4 now supports High-Resolution Audio Wireless, thanks to LDAC, Sony’s industry-adopted audio coding technology.

LDAC transmits approximately three times more data (at the maximum transfer rate of 990 kbps) than conventional Bluetooth® audio, allowing you to enjoy High-Resolution Audio content in exceptional quality, as close as possible to that of a dedicated wired connection.

With its specially designed 6mm drivers, they reproduce a dynamic sound despite their small size, and the high compliance diaphragm reproduces a rich bass range.

The Integrated Processor V1 also enhances sound quality, reduces distortion, and enables LDAC codec processing and DSEE Extreme™.

Using Edge-AI, DSEE Extreme™ (Digital Sound Enhancement Engine) upscales compressed digital music files in real-time.

An even smarter listening experience

The speak-to-Chat feature is now available on the WF-1000XM4 and lets you have short conversations without taking out the earbuds.

As soon as you speak to someone, Speak-to-Chat automatically pauses the music and lets in ambient sound so you can conduct a conversation – handy if you want to keep your headphones on, or your hands are full. Once your chat is over, your music starts playing again automatically.

‘Quick Attention’ mode is available on the WF-1000XM4 so if you want to listen to an announcement or say something briefly, you simply place your finger over the left earbud to decrease the volume instantly and let ambient sound in.

The WF-1000XM4 also features Adaptive Sound Control, a smart feature that senses where you are and what you’re doing – for example, traveling, walking, or waiting – then adjusts ambient sound settings for the ideal listening experience.

Just take the earbuds out of your ears and the music stops with its proximity sensor that detects when you are wearing one or both earbuds. Simply pop them back in and the music starts again.

Enjoy superior call quality

With the Precise Voice Pickup Technology, experience hands-free calling is even better on the WF-1000XM4.

WF-1000XM4 picks up your voice clearly and accurately for hands-free calls, combining Precise Voice Pickup Technology with microphones and a bone-conduction sensor.

Beamforming microphones are calibrated to only pick up sounds from your mouth. With an improved signal-to-noise ratio they’ll catch every word, even when there’s a lot of noise around you.

Additionally, the new bone-conduction sensor only picks up vibrations from your voice – it doesn’t register ambient sound – enabling even clearer speech when making calls.

An even better fit

Since introducing the world’s first in-ear headphones in 1982 (MDR-E252), Sony has analyzed huge amounts of data relating to ear shapes from around the world. The WF-1000XM4 headphones are the product of that research, combining a shape that matches the ear cavity with a new ergonomic surface design for a more stable fit.

You can now find the right fit for your ears with the Sony | Headphones Connect App. The app takes you through a few simple measurements to find the ideal size of Noise Isolation earbud tips to ensure maximum sound quality and minimum outside noise.

The WF-1000XM4 has been designed to be smaller and lighter, but with no compromises. The earphones have been redesigned to be 10% smaller than the previous generation, without compromising on sound quality or battery life. They are lightweight, making them your perfect companion for long days out and about and the charging case is 40% smaller.

Better Bluetooth for Uninterrupted Viewing

The advanced wireless connection syncs what you see on screen precisely with what you hear on your headphones for more enjoyable viewing with low latency.

The optimization of the transmission algorithm with the Integrated Processor V1 has made the connection more stable and less prone to sound skipping, even in an environment where there is interference, which means the WF-1000XM4 provides a clearer and more stable Bluetooth^® connection.

Experience impressive battery life and truly wireless charging

Enjoy a full 8 hours of use from your headphones, and a further 16 hours from the case. This means a full 24 hours of charge every time you leave your home.

In a hurry? A 5-minute quick charge gives you up to 60 minutes of playtime, and the Sony | Headphones Connect app will notify you when your charging case drops below 30%.

Water resistance

With an IPX4 water resistance rating, splashes and sweat won’t stop the WF-1000XM4 – so you can keep on moving to the music.

Better for the environment

To produce lower waste, 99% of the paper packaging, other than labels, is produced using recycled and sustainable materials developed especially for Sony.

The packaging for WF-1000XM4 is plastic-free and has been designed based on low toxicity design principles and a ‘Made to be remade’ philosophy that’s more socially responsible.

Immerse yourself in sound

360 Reality Audio, a new immersive audio experience, can be enjoyed on the WF-1000XM4 headphones when combined with an Android™ smartphone/iPhone that has a participating streaming services app installed.

The 360 Reality Audio listening experience immerses you in the music as if you are right in front of your favorite artist.

Inside the box, you’ll find 3 sizes of Noise Isolation Earbud Tips, as well as a USB-C charging cable.

Availability

The WF-1000XM4 will come in Black and Silver and will be available in the Philippines soon. Please standby for the pre-order promotion announcement, as well.
