Sony Revisits Its Acclaimed XM4 Headphones Six Years Later
The Verge reports Sony is returning to its widely praised WH-1000XM4 design, according to a report referencing a new XM4C model.
Sony is revisiting its widely praised WH-1000XM4 headphones six years after their debut, according to a report from The Verge.
The outlet recalled that in the fall of 2020, Sony and Bose were engaged in an intense competition over noise-canceling headphone technology, with each company releasing successive models aimed at outperforming the other.
The WH-1000XM4, released by Sony that year, was met with wide acclaim and topped "best headphones" lists for years afterward, The Verge reported, citing the model's sound quality, competitive active noise cancellation (ANC), and compact size as key strengths.
According to the report's headline and accompanying URL, Sony has now announced a new headphone model referred to as the XM4C, though further details on the new product were not included in the available excerpt of The Verge's report.
The Verge's report did not specify additional technical details, pricing, or release timing for the new model at the time of this summary.
