"Dual noise sensor technology employs external and internal microphones on each earcup to pick up and eliminate ambient noise with surprising accuracy. External mics pick up external noise such as airplane engines, traffic, or air-conditioning systems, and internal mics are listening for what actually ends up in your ear and make adjustments on the fly. This dual-pronged attack creates an area of silence that's truly impressive, eliminating low-rumble growl of engine noise and higher-pitched chatter of nearby conversations."
"Battery life stretches to 30 hours with noise cancellation active which covers multiple cross-country flights or weeks of daily commuting before you need to recharge. Quick charging adds another convenience layer: a 10-minute charge via the included USB-C cable delivers five hours of playback, so even if you forget to charge them overnight, a quick top-up during breakfast gets you through the day. This battery performance beats AirPods Max which manage around 20 hours and lack any fast-charging capability."
Sony's WH-1000XM4 headphones are available at a steep discount, dropping to $198 from $348, making them far less expensive than AirPods Max, Bose, or Sonos alternatives. The headphones use dual noise sensor technology with external and internal microphones on each earcup to accurately detect and cancel ambient sound, removing both low-rumble engine noise and higher-pitched chatter. Noise cancellation performance remains practically on par with newer XM5 and XM6 models. Battery life reaches 30 hours with noise cancellation active, and a 10-minute USB-C quick charge provides about five hours of playback, supporting long commutes and travel.
