It's time to compare my two favorite wireless noise cancelling headphones: Apple's AirPods Max and Sony's WH1000XM4.

What Most people never talk about of XM4 in Android is NFC. One touch and not only the headphone start but connect immediately. The second advantage for me is LDAC, where if you have better audio quality files, it really makes a difference. Thirdly, the case is so much better in XM4
@lowkey7671
@lowkey7671 2 жыл бұрын
The thing is ldac isn't supplied on iOS devices, so xm4's ldac streaming only takes affect for android users. So it wouldn't rly be an advantage over airpods maxes, as they aim straight for ios users.
@PurushNahiMahaPurush
@PurushNahiMahaPurush 2 жыл бұрын
I found the ldac thing to be alright. If you have lossless audio on your phone, you most likely also have a portable DAC. And the upgrade to LDAC was noticeable but not worth the sacrifice in battery life of both my phone and my headphones. Also multipoint connectivity does not work with ldac. I would rather prefer to have quality of life features over ldac, if I had to choose. AirPods Max already prove that even with 256kbps bitrate, you can have great sounding headphones.

I don’t know about everyone but I’d like to mention one small advantage for us students in the xm4... I use them especially for their noise cancellation and can keep them on without any ear fatigue for at least 5-6 hours at a stretch....I don’t know if you can achieve that with the Apple since the weight and high clamp force will tire your ears easily.....anyways this is for us students who’d love to emulate a quiet surrounding and for long periods.... -

So it's certainly not the intended use, but I've had XM2 & 3s that I used on the flight line as PPE. I wear gloves often and the touch controls still worked even when wet. I have been out in the rain, snow, and sands with em with no issues either. The adjustable noise cancellation is great because you can find the right setting and still be able to hear people talking or the radio and keep your ears protected.

One feature of the XM4 is the Speak to Chat which activates Transparency mode and pauses the audio when you speak. Can be useful without having to use your hand to cover the sensor pad. People who sing along will find it annoying, but a short cut to turn the feature on and off without needing to reach for the app is to a two finger press and hold on the earpad, toggles the mode. Most reviews don't mention this. A draw back with the XM4 multipoint feature is that bluetooth connections defaults to only SBC codec when actively connected to two devices.. LDAC is only available when connected to one device.

That aside, I decided on the XM4s, because I wanted the freedom of the EQ and my wallet. They are simply amazing.

I know this doesn't apply to everyone, though arguably more these days, but the importance of call quality is an issue. If you plan to use headphones for video conferencing, the Sonys are not a great option on Bluetooth mode. I got lots of complaints about not being to hear me clearly at times. I tested them by recording video and occasionally the sound will grow tinny, staticky and muffled. It has happened enough that I only used them with the wired jack now on video. I wouldn't think much of it if they weren't essentially supposed to be one of Sony's best. I looked into it and it's a pretty common issue going back to the XM3's. I don't know how the AirPods Max fare, but regular AirPods seem to do much better. So I guess the suggestion at the end of buying both makes sense if you plan to do any video conferencing.

the power saving mode on the Max is great. it also enables location tracking which no headphones offer. the max go on power saving after 5 mins of not using them. when you put them in the case, it also does the same thing, it’s not going to turn off the headphones after a couple days of not using it. it will stay on. Apple has a different way of “battery management” on their phone, phone case and headphones. they just want customer to use their pair of headphones without worrying about on/off switch.

Two things I just wanted to add: - The AirPods Max don't come with a manual equaliser but it does have an adaptive one that automatically adjusts it for you. - Also, the XM4s may have LDAC but in order to use LDAC bluetooth codec you will have to use an android phone as iOS does not support anything other than AAC as of right now. Either way, great video! I think this was a wonderful review and very informative :)

Tested them both at bestbuy, went with Sony instead. If you’re the average listener you wouldn’t notice at all unless you pay attention to these small details, only things y’all notice would be the price and weight. Apple does cancel out the noise a bit better during my testing but not to the point of a deal breaker or justification for the huge price gap.

It’s not entirely true that you can’t adjust the sound profile on AirPods Max, but it’s hidden under Settings / Accessibility / Audio & Visual / Headphone Accommodations.

You can also turn on the XM4's by running your phones NFC over the headphone's NFC pad. I think that small detail is pretty cool as well.

XM4 is more cost friendly. Airpods Max is overall better ( slightly better ) but more expensive. The cost friendliness of the XM4 is what makes it the best headphones to buy. When it comes to sound quality and comfortability, I’d go for AirPods Max any day. Plus Airpods Max goes better with the Apple Ecosystem

Something this review I believed didn’t go enough into detail was the build quality issues the Sony XM4’s have, along with its previous model the XM3’s. They all eventually develop creaking issues on both the ear cups and the headband, my model XM4 had this issue after the second day. Just googling this will bring up hundreds of cases of people trying to troubleshoot something that’s just inherently bad design. They sound great (especially when you EQ them to your taste), but +$300 headphones shouldn’t be making so much noise by simply walking. After returning them and using the Bose QC 45 (and actually returning them too, wasn’t fan of the neutral sound), I settled with the AirPods Max and couldn’t be happier. Funny enough I tried a demo pair of XM4’s yesterday at Best Buy to see if maybe I was unlucky that time I bought them, and they creaked way worse then the one I owned 🤷‍♀️. Just my 2 cents.

You sir just made me buy the Max. Was thinking of going for the XM4, but then I read your comment. It seems it is indeed common complaint with many Sony users about the squeak problem. I don’t mind spending a little more if I know that It’ll last more.

I bought Max at first. It was very heavy and my husband heart all, what I was listening. I gave it back to the shop. Then I found Sony xm4 and bought it. My family says they are too loud by calling. But I like this device. (Please sorry for my English)

I am using my Sony XM3. I have for a few times accidentally swiped volume way up high when doing something else and as a result thrown my headset from my head in agony 😁. I've also used them as hearing protection but sadly if there is no music XM3 shuts itself in a few minutes, hopefully AirPods / XM4s are not so picky about the use. But great review. Seems AirPods is the new ANC king.

That is incredibly subjective. I would say as many people think the Max’s sound better as do others thinking the XM4s sound better.

Grabbed some xm4s a while back for £230 in the uk. Legitimately less than half the price of the AirPods - honestly not really a competition imo (especially since I recently swapped my old iPhone for a OnePlus)

I used Sonys AirPods once was very excited about the purchase as it was my 1st expensive earphones but after a while it started paining and it was impossible to take calls with it. Decided never to buy any Sony product after that , took a Bose headphone Q 35 and it’s amazing.
