These or the XM5s when they're on sale for $200? I've got a pair of XM2s but would like to upgrade. I know these fold which is a big plus compared to the XM5
Xm5 doesn't even fold. So if you travel, I'd got the xm4
That said, if you travel over 6 hours, the signature sony headphone ear cramping will come to play ( I don't know why, but they have had this poor ear chamber design since 1990), I would get bose instead if you do long haul flights

And yes, I have them all

Snagged a silver pair for 151.99 on their site! Thank you for the heads up. My XM2s will happily go to the wife.

is it really a big upgrade over the xm2? how so? have the xm2s now, that are on the way out..

"The Sony WH-1000XM4 Wireless are better headphones than the Sony WH-1000XM2 Wireless. The WH-1000XM4 are more comfortable, their ANC can block out even more background noise, and their continuous battery life is longer, too. You can also pair them with up to two devices at a time."

Generally it was worth it for me for the better ANC and USB-C. The headphones were my last micro-usb device (other than my dualshock 4)

Bought these via the open box deal from Buydig the other week for $156. They came factory sealed.

I am astounded at how well the ANC works - you turn them on and everything just disappears. They're fantastic.

Seems like a good price. FWIW I ordered the XM5s from Secondipity last month and they were practically new. Free shipping. Includes 2 year warranty from Allstate.

Which Bose model do you recommend? I have a long flight coming up in less than 2 weeks and have been considering getting some ANC headphones.

I bought the XM5s from secondipity last month too, but the condition they come in seem to be hit or miss. I purchased the white/ivory ones, and was hoping to receive one in like new condition that many others rave about when purchasing refurbished from secondipity. But the pair I got were clearly used with some browning in the ear cups. I ended up returning it because I thought there was something wrong with it as it was making hissing sounds and odd suction noises that I never heard on my previous XM3s.

Bose QC45?
they were on sale during holiday season from costco or ticktock shop for around 200 dollar, new, or around 160 refurb.

but if you don't care usb -c, the QC 35 is just as good.

Does the heaphone band above the ear cups break all apart like the XM3's?
I have had my XM3s since 2019 and the band is in perfect condition still FWIW.

Last time I got headphones it turned out a bunch were counterfeit (sennheiser) so my question is are these authorized sales as well as not 3rd party mixing of product like Amazon?
I think Secondipity is an authorized Sony seller. I bought 3 Sony branded headsets from them the last few years and all were authentic with all accessories, cases, cables included. Refurbs just dont come in original packaging.

I own the WH-XB910N headphones and honestly I'm pretty happy with the pair, but am willing to upgrade if it is a good step up. Is the ANC and audio quality of this set significantly better?

You can check rtings or a bunch of other review websites.

Bottom line is that XM5 may only be a slight upgrade with regard to ANC, however this may not even be noticeable. Both are great options. I don't think you would regret purchasing the XM4's and saving ~$50.
you won't notice difference in sound or anc but it will be a deal breaker if you need them to fold

IMO folding is overrated. I had the Bose QC45 before. You still have a bulky case even folded. Get a clip and hook to the outside of your bag.

I agree the ANC will be close enough. From what I experienced, the XM5 has better bass. Also the mic on the XM5 is significantly better if you need to get on calls.

Like the XM4 but the clamping makes my ear sweat after 30mins. Because of this I only use them on flights. The Bose options are much more comfortable but at a slight degrade in sound QA and ANC. Try at BestBuy first before buying.
