The Sony WH 1000XM4 stands out as a strong noise cancelling over ear headphone for mowing, travel, and podcast listening. It is described as comfortable, effective at cutting mower noise, and easy to use for music or podcasts, with solid build quality and a foldable design that suits travel better than the XM5. The main cautions are that sound quality is not ideal for hearing protection use, dust and sweat can wear ports and cushions faster, and hinge issues are worth checking. A practical pick when portability and ANC matter most.

  • People mowing a lawn or riding a zero-turn while listening to podcasts, because the noise cancelling makes the mower hard to hear and the headphones stay comfortable.

  • Travelers who want foldable over-ear headphones, because the design folds for packing and the XM5 does not.

  • Listeners who want strong all-around build quality, because the XM4 is described as more solid than the XM5 and better than Beats in build.

  • Workers who need hearing protection while mowing or using loud equipment, because the sound quality is not great and hearing-protection earmuffs may be a better fit.

  • People who want the newest folding-free design for travel, because the XM5 does not fold and the XM4 is chosen instead for portability.

  • Buyers worried about hinge durability, because the XM4 has reported hinge issues worth researching before purchase.

Before anyone buys these, make sure you research the hinge issues for the xM4s and XM5s on Reddit.
I think you mean the xm5 and 6. These are the 4 the one before that

BEST DEAL I have seen this BF or for that matter 2024 or 2023... I have the XM3's and XM4's, never have seen these this low for NEW from a top store. I skipped XM5's because they DO NOT FOLD for travel! I don't need to buy a set, but I can guarantee you that it is an incredible deal for these... AND Sony updates the Firmware at least once a year. Only competition this has (according to Consumer Reports...read years ago) is BOSE.

Questions From the Feed:

1) Is this going to work for me to wear while mowing my yard on a tractor? I mainly need it for the ANC to listen to podcasts.

ANSWER: YES! Thought I would use my older XM3s for this (and for running/gym) and keep the XM4s for travel and indoors. Be aware that when doing a large lawn, dust can get into the ports, AND sweat breaks down the cushion material faster, meaning (example) 3 years versus 5.

You are right... I should have said 2023 (when I got my XM4s)... Bought at $180... I must have missed 2024 pricing, I don't remember it (or I would have jumped in and commented how excellent they are!)... Either way, the value is ultra high as I use both version 3 and 4... But have stayed away from 5 with the folding/portability issue.

Wow I just picked up a pair. Amazing for the price! Less than half the price of the AirPod Pro Max and I'd say equally as good.

That is exactly what I use mine for. You won't regret the purchase.
They are comfortable and I can hardly hear my Zero Turn as I listen to podcasts.
