Sony WF-1000XM4 vs The BEST (Sennheiser, Apple, Samsung)

The Sony WF-1000XM4 have finally arrived and they are the best noise cancelling earbuds that Sony has to offer. Packing a long list of features like ANC, Ambient, LDAC Support, along with a fully-featured App to really drive home that premium feel. I will also be comparing them to the Sony WF1000XM3, Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2, Apple AirPods Pro, and the Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro. Will the Sony WF1000XM4 be the new king?

I've had my eye on the sony ones for a few months with rumours and leaks etc but now don't know if I should get them. I can get the Sennheiser momentum 2 for £169 with the student discount from the Sennheiser website as opposed to the sony xm4 at £250. It sounds like a no brainer but I need a professionals reassurance. Should I get the Sennheisers?

Thanks for such a complete review, it helped me to understand the issue about these earbuds. I bought them 3 weeks ago and almost give up trying to adjust them and get rid of the eq shifting when raising the volume beyond 65%. I followed your advice and set de codec to AAC only and it helped a lot, but I can still hear a substancial difference in treble. When raising volume beyond 65% the highs start to fade until almost disappear at 100%. Do you know about Sony having plans to solve this problem with a firmware update? Congratulations, I really enjoy your reviews, you are really El Jefe among all reviewers.

[@ELJefeReviews]

[@robinyumnam2646]

BTW who listens to 100% volume. I can't even get past 50%, it gets too loud for me.

[@BN99239]

Honestly, these 2 earbuds had such close reviews that I had to buy both myself to compare. In the end, I decided on the Sennheiser. It really does have a wider, deeper soundstage. The bass is much more accurate. With the most recent update to the Sennheiser's mobile app, it's much easier to tune the equalizer and therefore after tuning the equalizer, the Sennheiser sounds better. I find that the bass on the Sony only sounds good for certain songs, it misses certain bass so I don't even hear it with some songs. Best part is, the Sennheiser is now $230, so it's quite a bit cheaper than the Sony's. Only downside is that the Sennheiser is a little less loud, but this would only matter for those who prefer to listen on max volume all the time.

[@ELJefeReviews]

Well said.

[@kristineve9080]

I'm actually about to do the same thing. I bought the Sennies yesterday, but truthfully.. they sound a bit muddy to me. Tweaking the EQ did help, but they're still lacking a certain something (punch.. kick?? Can't quite put my finger on it). They just don't kick, when music is supposed to 😕 .. I'm hoping the Sony's may deliver a bit more excitement.

[@thenonexistinghero]

@@kristineve9080 Could be bad luck with the hardware lottery. But it could also be that Sony's type of sound is what you prefer. I can't say I have experience with any wireless earbuds other than trying out some of Apple's a bit... which I found lacking. But the Sony XM3's brought a smile to my face the moment I listened to a song on it for the first time. I'm sticking with them until I feel like there's wireless earbuds available that truly outclass them for a reasonable price. Everything else out there right now still seems like an incremental upgrade. But I'm also not the type of person to replace things I spent good money on quickly (€160 or so a few years ago). I imagine in a year or 2 or 3 I'm ready to upgrade.

[@MMotagaly]

The volume problem with LDAC is typical; it is an LDAC thing that can be enabled or disabled on the source itself; for example, on the Sony walkman, features are available whether to raise the volume or turn it down from the receiver, in this case, the earbuds.

The only thing holding me back is the battery life tbh with the Sennheiser. You have anything to say in regards to that? Thanks!

Battery life is the biggest weak point on the Sennheiser. So it’s a trade off. Only you can decide if the increase in sound quality is worth the loss of battery life.

[@krane15]

As far as I'm concerned the battery life is many times longer than I'd be comfortable wearing earbuds in the first place. Even if I used them at work in a loud factory, I'd still remove them and put them in the charger to take a lunch break.

Based on your experience with the Momentum 2 TWS, would you recommend them over the Sony XM4s?

[@eyb0ss]

@@vacowboy75 Tough to say as the XM4s have replaced the Momentum 2 TWS as my daily driver currently. I do reach for them occasionally to do some comparisons here and there. The biggest difference is the sound stage from the TWS 2s, with the high end audio tuning it makes it even more wider than it was without it enabled and it does crispen up the vocals and separate the instruments somewhat. In terms of sound quality they are both good in their own ways, might have to start swapping them every other day to see what really makes one better than the other. ANC and Ambient mode hands down are better on the XM4s, 2 extra mics per bud makes a difference.

Great review as always, enjoying the XM4’s and I appreciate your insight to the app usage. Have a great one El Jefe!

[@ELJefeReviews]

Thanks, you too!

[@AboutThings_byTarif]

Dude that's one of the most thorough and methodical reviews I've ever seen for any piece of tech that's not a car. Super useful.

[@ELJefeReviews]

Glad you found it useful!🙏🏼

[@HM-vo1jf]

Agree with most of comments. Best (detailed) review on this product I've seen. Glasses indoors though 😎

[@ELJefeReviews]

You're goddamn right!😎

[@HM-vo1jf]

Subscribed 😎 ! I'll go get my glasses.

[@zpolt]

Nice review, and super detailed as well. Liking the look on these vs the prev.

[@ELJefeReviews]

Thank you bro! Me too.

[@michaelcorcoran8768]

On my 1more neckband Ldac burns through battery twice as fast. It's worth the trade off though most of the time, depending on use case.b

[@ELJefeReviews]

I hear you on that!

[@lifeordeath7435]

Bro you absolutely did not have to do a breakdown like this but damn! I respect you so much for it by far the best video i have ever seen about these sony earbuds incredible work thank you! Gonna go get me a pair now 👍

[@ELJefeReviews]

Thank you!

[@Mr.CrazyJay]

Great review, I just ordered them today I'm looking forward to getting them I listen to rock, metal, pop and electronic

[@ELJefeReviews]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@Joel-np6tz]

Great review Jeff. Thank you for bringing these! I'm definitely getting these I was just waiting on your review

[@ELJefeReviews]

Glad I could help!

[@vincenthuang9857]

Best review of xm4 on KZbin so far, I've the MTW 2 and pre-ordered the xm4, may I know if it's possible to adjust the EQ of xm4 to make it similar to MTW 2 sound tuning? And may I know if the volume issue exists if only LDAC is enabled without DSEE?

[@ELJefeReviews]

1. No. I tried to bring more balance to the sound but the bass is still too strong. 2. Still happens with or without DSEE.

[@Punisher-1]

So which one do you like best the XM4 or the MTW 2?

[@amskumar]

Awesome review. I love that you sectioned the video on different topic and I could cursor over to the relevant ones.

[@ELJefeReviews]

Glad it was helpful!

[@7bkdanbabu707]

Thanks for this video i orderer xm4 i.m jumping to it from Samsung buds 2 it's going to be big jump your video gave me clear answers to my questions Thanks buddy

[@ELJefeReviews]

Glad I could help.

[@respondent5226]

Sennheiser/Sony Which of the two is more compatible with the iPhone?(sound Quality)

[@ELJefeReviews]

Both are equally compatible with iPhone. Same as any other bluetooth headphones outside of Apple's own products.

[@talisman8311]

My concert was, how about its latency when it comes to gaming? Iphones wanted to remove everything from their units to make more space for batteries!

[@myrrhsee1]

Phenomenal. Great content, pace, tonality... Just a great job. Ty

[@ELJefeReviews]

Thank you for the kind words!🙏🏼

[@HHowardHH]

wow that live test made yours the best review that I've seen so far. well done

[@ELJefeReviews]

Glad you liked it!

[@user-yu9ro1yw5o]

Thanks! great review! Please, do Bowers&willkins pi7!

[@ELJefeReviews]

Waiting for Bowers & Wilkins to send them.

[@user-yu9ro1yw5o]

@@ELJefeReviews I’ve read about a serious problem using them - dropouts. Please, test them for such an issue! That’s could be an absolute dealbreaker.

[@DeeEfSea]

THIS! Thank you in advanced :)

[@holehelo1797]

For smaller ears ( I always use xs ear tips), which one do you think fit the best, and the second. Thank you!

[@SpeedyPalomino]

I tend to listen to a lot of down tempo/deep house and audio books daily,,, I think I need to try these???

[@ELJefeReviews]

Right on!

[@sean-michaeloriordan6198]

I got the xm4 just after Christmas this year and I have to say I was astounded by the adio quality it’s amazing but most of all the anc it’s just super

[@ELJefeReviews]

Glad you're enjoying them.

[@bonnie1430]

This is the best review among all the ones I watched for the xm4. You answered all of my questions, some of which are honestly kinda nitpicky.

[@ELJefeReviews]

Glad I could help!

[@andrewferri7732]

11:31 I absolutely DIED at "dummy quiet" 😂 great review dude, just subscribed! I couldn't decide between these or the Galaxy Bud Pros But seeing that these have nearly all of their features plus superior noise cancellation, fit, and audio I'm DEFINITELY going with these!🔥

[@ELJefeReviews]

Ayyeee! Thats the best way to describe the prowess of the ANC here!😂

[@MrPrizziceless]

Love the review - thank you. LDAC > DSEE, you shouldn't need to have DSEE if listening to lossless and LDAC is enabled. not sure how this relates to your volume issues though.

[@ELJefeReviews]

It’s not related. It appears to be an issue when using custom EQ settings. If I leave the EQ set to “Off”, there are no more volume issues.

[@elgatofeo6180]

GREAT REVIEW!! I'm getting a pair d Sennhiheiser Momentum 2!!! Thanks

[@ELJefeReviews]

Glad I could help!

[@joymiller9668]

I have small ears, but they don't hurt me, I ve had them for 4m and I am in love, even without music playing you can turn on noise canceling and, if you have a fan and dryer and washer going, it's like u instantly turned off all your electronics with a touch of a button, I love the ambient sound too I can where them at work and never miss what someone has said, you can even have noise canceling set up to shut off if it detects voices! The 360 is amazing its like the music is in my brain lol, having Amazon music really let's you take advantage of what they are capable of. And even with small ears I have a hard time knocking them out, but if ur worried about that you can usually get a rubber necklace that fits over them so if it comes out it's still on your neck, I like having one just in case I want to take them out for a minute, and you can get it with a. Case, keyring, cleaning brush, all in one order for like 10$ on Amazon, you may end up getting a different color than the one you picked but it's about the cheapest combo deal they have, I also still wanted to be able to use wireless charging so I just wanted a thin rubber case, but they have sturdier options. Thanks to your video here, I feel like I got the best deal for my money. They have been updating software pretty regular and I think they actually sound better than when I got them. I think they really do well with both Apple and Samsung, I have both.

[@IkesTechTalk]

The one opinion I was waiting for, dope vid as always

[@ELJefeReviews]

Appreciate you bro!

[@DHRME]

Solid job as usual bro. 👊🏽

[@ELJefeReviews]

Appreciate you checking out the review bro!

[@pbamma]

First listen to you man. Your voice and content is great. Subbed.

[@ELJefeReviews]

I appreciate that!

[@TransformationDetail]

Thanks for your review. I just purchased the sennheiser with sound/bass being my main focus. I'm satisfied after watching your video. I'll stick with these

[@ELJefeReviews]

Good choice my dude!

[@TechFit360]

The Sennheiser's sound quality is Amazing! EL Jefe ***EXCELLENT review as always my Brother! Blessings***

[@ELJefeReviews]

Thanks you bro!

[@AvalonEndures]

This video was EXACTLY what I needed. Your comparisons where the best I've seen and helped me make the decision to purchase The Sony WF-1000XM4. Impressive video for sure! UPDATE: I used your link to purchase them via Amazon. Thank you again for this helpful video!

[@ELJefeReviews]

Glad I could help!

[@zaynalim9248]

My man you're doin a great job here, also your voice is soothing

[@ELJefeReviews]

Glad you think so!

[@mikeecalvary]

Good job with all the comparisons. Helped me a lot.

[@ELJefeReviews]

Glad it helped!

[@ahmaddafasalam5615]

How the Anc, Transparansy &, SQ compare to 1more ComfoBuds Pro ?

[@ELJefeReviews]

ANC: Sony Transparency: Sony Sound: Different. Winner is determined by your own preference.

[@googlereviewer2743]

I love my Sony XM4s until I saw the reviews comparing and testing it against the Bose QC Airbuds and the Bose seemed much better at ANC and call quality during noisy backgrounds. Would you be comparing the Sony's next to the Bose anytime soon?

[@ELJefeReviews]

Absolutely!

[@omaryabby9444]

Nice job, Jefe (Sorry, too many people incorrectly add the EL in normal conversations). I'm very torn about what wireless in-ear buds to get with ANC for when I fly- but also want to be able to take a job and just use them for audiobooks. Based on your tests, it seems the Sennheiser ones perform the best! thanks for the comparisons.

[@deltazero6]

Another thoughtful and critical assessment from the Big Homie! These damn health battles been hassling me, but I had to tell you hom much we all appreciate what you doing... Big Homie Doin' Big Things!

[@ELJefeReviews]

No doubt homie! I appreciate you coming through.

[@richardcowan4720]

I was going to go for the bowers and Wilkins p17 for sheer sound quality. However the fact they don't have an eq was a complete deal breaker and I went with these. Now I don't know if the sound on the bowers is better? But boy oh boy these are absolutely fantastic in every way. They absolutely smash my airpods pro in sound quality and ANC! They smash my galaxy buds pro in sound as well. They're on a par if not slightly better than my brother's Senheisser momentum 2s! And you can play around with the eq which imo Sony's is the best out there. It actually makes a huge difference to the sound you hear unlike others that literally make no difference. In short I'm.glas I picked these. If the bowers do sound better then they must be using some form of magic!!! Trust me the sound of these Sony's are out of this world. They're compatible to over hear headphones and good ones at that.

[@wilberberrios6420]

I just got these yesterday, and the sound is just n another level from others they sound sooo good, on all genres. Now thats the good thing, fit is good as well, BUT if you have iphone the convinience of the m1 chip is just to much of a big factor. Atleast for me. I love the sound of these, amazing sound. But I will be returning them just cuz the beats fit pro go better with my phone and the sound is also good.

[@ELJefeReviews]

Fair enough! The Beats are surprisingly good.

[@wilberberrios6420]

Im gonna update this and Say, These xm4s sound soo good, i said Fudge the apple eco system and went to get them again, with not a single regret love the sound

[@_Maciex_]

great work dude, just searching for this comparison, testing testing 1 2 3;) I choose Sennheiser's as the sound quality is the best, too much ANC isn't too good to me - making me feel alienation

[@ELJefeReviews]

Glad I could help!

[@kenhiett5266]

First time on your channel and I'm impressed with the comprehensive and well produced format. I'm going to buy these new Sony headphones based on this review. Subscribed and liked. Thank you
