It's not an old model. Sony is different than Bose. The QC45 is the successor to the popular QC-35s. Yes, the XM5s are newer, but the QC-45s are still the latest model for that line from Bose.
Nope. The QC45 is the newest Bose model.

The Sony XM5 is also very different than this one, especially when it comes to sound signature. And the price you're talking about with the XM5 is for a refurbished version.

FWIW, I actually own both, as I'm a reviewer for his kind of thing.

At $250, this is a pretty solid deal for this model, and would recommend it to anyone looking for a solid pair of general use headphones. (Unless you have tinnitus and are bothered by ANC. In that case, don't get this one because you only have 2 modes: ANC or Aware. No "all off" option.)
I believe they were as low as $229 in the past during Prime day. So I suspect they will come down again during Black Friday if you can wait.

Xm4. Bose has some NC model line which are a bit newer than these, but different form factor that some people don't like as much

NC700 has thicker ear pads, a sleeker look, slightly more noise canceling control (you can set the level vs just the on/off of the QC45), and touch controls. Some of the people I've tested with also say it has better sound, although I don't agree: I think they sound about the same.

Between the two, I like the QC45 better. The NC700 is 2-3 years old at this point, though, and considering the QC Earbuds 2 just got an update, I'd expect the NC700 to get an update sometime within the next year.

Yep. USB-C on this model. (The QC-35 II was the last mode with microUSB, I believe.)

NC on QC45 is better than on the NC700 in my experience. Bose replaced my NC700 with QC45 due to issues with bluetooth connection w/ my iphone for some reason. problem does not exist on the QC45. I like the build of the NC700 better than qc45, but the QC45 has better bass response and simpler controls than the NC700. Great price on these also.

Hmmmm I have AirPods pro and do have tinnitus. I do notice it a bit louder or more present after I use them for a long time. I don't have them playing loud, under 50 %.

Is ANC known to aggravate tinnitus!?

I have the 700 and QC35. In terms of music, IMO the 700 is vastly inferior and sounds like a $100 headphone.
