The post Sony WH-1000XM4 price guide: find the best deals and sales in July 2022 appeared first on Game News.
]]>Sony has held the top spot with its acclaimed 1000X range for years now, since the WH-1000XM3s first graced the shelves. The XM4s took up the title in August 2020, and have since slowly started trickling down from that $350 / £350 / AU$550 MSRP. We’ve seen these cups drop down as low as $249 / £200 in the past, with regular discounts reaching $279 / £249 a little more frequently.
That means you could stand to save as much as $100 / £100 on these premium cups. We’re rounding up all the best Sony WH-1000XM4 deals from around the web just below, with our comparison software surfacing the cheapest prices every 30 minutes.
Today’s best Sony WH-1000XM4 deals
Sony WH-1000XM4 Features
If you’re looking for big physical differences between the WH-1000XM3 and WH-1000XM4, you’ll be a little disappointed. The main changes come under the hood which, in our view, is perfect; the headphones have a really pleasing aesthetic already so why mess with that?
That isn’t to say Sony has thrown up its hands and left the design exactly the same: the ear pads are 10% bigger, for example, making for a more comfortable fit. But it’s the insides that make the difference. The XM4s have fast charging, giving you five hours of playback from 10 minutes plugged in, and on-ear detection.
Some other cool new tricks include adaptive sound that has been enhanced and improved to deal with more situations and environments; music pauses when you speak, to avoid having to constantly click around; and the headphones now have Bluetooth 5.0, up from 4.2, meaning multi-device connections are supported simultaneously.
On top of that, all of the usual features are still there: support for Alexa, Siri, and Google Assistant, 360 Reality Audio (for a virtual surround sound experience), 30+ hours of playback, and so on.
