Smarter talking, smarter listening
As soon as you speak to someone, Speak-to-Chat automatically pauses the music and lets in ambient sound so you can conduct a conversation 7 - handy if you want to keep your headphones on, or your hands are full. And once your chat is over, your music starts playing again automatically. 8 Speak-to-Chat recognizes and reacts to your voice. It is based on Precise Voice Pickup Technology, which combines four microphones and sensors with advanced audio signal processing 7 .
Superior call quality
Precise Voice Pickup Technology uses beamforming microphones and a bone-conduction sensor to allow the WF-1000XM4 headphones to pick up your voice clearly and accurately for hands-free calls - at home, in a café or wherever you are. In addition, Noise Cancelling lets you hear the person on the other end of the call more clearly, even in noisy situations.
Ergonomic surface design for a better fit
Since introducing the world s first in-ear headphones in 1982 (MDR-E252), we ve surveyed huge amounts of data relating to ear shapes from around the world. The WF-1000XM4 headphones are the product of that research, combining a shape that matches the ear cavity with a new ergonomic surface design for a more stable fit.
Water resistant for everyday use
With an IPX4 water resistance rating 2 , splashes and sweat won t stop these headphones - so you can keep on moving to the music.
