Years on, the Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones still crush it, and they’re dirt cheap right now

If you thought the chance to grab premium headphones at a discount had passed since Amazon’s Prime Day sales are over, don’t worry—the retail giant is still offering deals on select models, including the Sony WH-1000XM4.

The Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones are down to $198 right now, which is $150 off the original price. And every color (silver, midnight blue, and black) is included. Even two generations in, we still swear by them. They’re easily among the best wireless headphones you can get for the price, especially with a deal like this.

What’s great about the Sony WH-1000XM4?

The WH-1000XM4s might not be the newest in the lineup, but they’re still a top-tier pick. They’re the ones that made Sony a go-to brand in ANC, paving the way for the XM5 and XM6 to build on their legacy.

Newer models are out there, but the XM4 headphones still pack serious value. You get top-notch sound, strong noise cancellation, and a feature set that holds up well. Sure, the XM6s offer upgrades across the board, but at over twice the price. For frequent travelers or anyone needing to tune out the world, the XM4s remain a smart pick, with a comfy fit and app-based customization that makes them easy to live with.

The WH-1000XM4s make life easier with multipoint Bluetooth, so you don’t have to constantly pair and unpair when switching between devices. Jumping from your laptop to your phone or console is seamless, and it’s perfect if you’re bouncing between work, workouts, and downtime.

The WH-1000XM4s come with touch controls right on the earcup: just tap or swipe to skip tracks, change volume, or take calls. They also have a handy feature that pauses your music and activates ambient sound as soon as you start talking, so you can jump into conversations without touching a thing. Once you’re done, the music picks right back up.
