Sony Noise Cancelling WH-1000XM4C
Wireless headphones with ambient noise cancelling
These Sony wireless headphones deliver improved sound quality, noise cancelling and an iconic design. Four precision microphones capture ambient sounds and pass them to the HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN1. The Personal Noise Cancellation Optimiser adapts the noise cancelling to the unique fit of your headphones, while Adaptive Sound Control learns your daily routine. When you want to be aware of your surroundings again, just switch to Ambient Sound mode. Quick Attention mode lets you instantly let ambient sounds in. The precisely tuned 40mm driver delivers richer and clearer vocals, more pronounced bass and a wider soundstage. With Hi-Res Audio Wireless certification, it delivers clean detail without cables. DSEE Extreme technology uses Edge-AI to restore detail lost during compression. The Sony headphones are also certified for 360 Reality Audio. You can further customise the sound with the new 10-band equaliser in the Sony | Sound Connect app. They fold easily into an ultra-compact hard case. Soft, padded earpads and an adjustable headband ensure comfort even during long listening sessions. The battery life is up to 34 hours, or 27 hours with noise cancelling on. The headphones have five built-in microphones with Precise Voice Pickup technology for clear hands-free calls. In the Sony | Sound Connect app, you can customise the individual features to your liking.

Exceptional noise cancelling
The headphones feature four precision microphones that power the HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN1. As a result, the headphones offer perfect noise cancellation. The Bluetooth Audio SoC processor analyses sound, noise, and acoustics more than 700 times per second and adapts in real-time to any environment. Whether you're walking through a crowd, riding a train, or escaping the hustle and bustle of the city, the WH-1000XM4C headphones will help you immerse yourself in your own private world of sound. The Personal Noise Cancellation Optimiser fine-tunes noise cancellation based on how you wear them – analysing your head shape and whether you wear glasses – while Adaptive Sound Control learns your daily routine and automatically adjusts noise cancellation and ambient sound according to your location. When you need to hear what's happening around you, switch to Ambient Sound mode. Or use Quick Attention mode: just cover the right earcup and the volume will instantly lower without you having to take the Sony headphones off.

| Manufacturer information |
Sony Corporation is a Japanese company founded in 1946. Its headquarters is located in Tokyo. Its beginnings were humble. The first product sold under the Sony brand was a transistor radio. It was those radios that played a pivotal role in the company's expansion in the 1960s and the world quickly began to associate Sony products with a reliably stellar price-performance ratio. In the 1970s, Sony was severely affected by the global economic crisis. Many analysts considered the company effectively defunct and could see no future for it. However, they underestimated the famous Japanese perseverance and courage. The crisis was not a disaster for Sony; on the contrary, it served as a launching pad to even greater heights. The company recovered and soon changed the media landscape with the development of the CD and later the DVD. In the early 1990s, Sony achieved another major success with the introduction of the PlayStation gaming console. It is the gaming consoles that best represent the intersection of the three key areas in which the company operates today – electronics, video games, and the entertainment industry.
