[FULL Review] Sony WH-1000XM4 - Should you buy it?

A thorough review of the XM4 and comparison to the XM3. And we try to answer the most important question - who's it really for? Featuring the super informative @JuanBagnell talking about codecs.

And a special thanks to Sony for sending us a pair of XM4s to test. We went out and bought one ourselves too. Note: this is an unsponsored and independent review. You see the video when Sony does.

Since a lot of you are asking, we didn't notice any difference in the touch sensor post-freezer. Ironically both the XM3 and XM4 worked fine. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You guys really give the impression that you’ve truly used all the headphones you review and your reviews are extremely assuring. Amazing video once again!

I am a programmer and need absolute silence when I am working on a complicated piece. Just ordered them, thank you for your review!

Finally a metalhead's opinion about the sound quality . Thank you so much 🤘🏻🤘🏻

It looks more spacious now and you also mentioned the "sing along" thing, that was really generous of you to consider my comments.
Really made my day 🔥
You people rock!

Oh my God. Thank you sooo much for the cold weather test. I stay in sub freezing temperature and hence was looking if XM4 still have the problem that many XM3 users had reported. Literally no one else did this test so THANK YOU !

Too late. I already have them and I'm watching this video with them on.

Hi. I just discovered you as I want an over-ear headphones and looking for bose vs sony. I love your vids, very professional and far from boring! And I think you live in The Netherlands from some pics; if so, regards from a Spanish guy living in Tilburg (Noord Brabant).

Finally pulled the trigger, the ANC is unbelievable on xm4

[michaelakaw.i.e.]

I have a question: on 2:26 you have mentioned that you've managed to change the custom button to cycle between Noise Cancellation, Wind Reduction and Ambient Mode. I would really like to know how you managed to get the wind reduction as your "middle custom button" since I also cycle a lot.

Now that Apple Music has Dolby Atmos and its ALAC format for lossless. Will you recommend this product for iPhone users.

I had the ATH-M50X and purchased they Sony WH-1000XM4 and I thought I was going to be blown away with the sound and I think the ATH-M50X sound better. The instruments are a little bit more noticeable. Someone help me! Do I have to adjust the sound on the Sony WH-1000XM4?

Hi, I wanted to ask, do you know if the headband cracking are still a problem in the xm4? I’m wondering if I should get these or risk getting the xm3
