Sony’s WF-1000XM4 noise-canceling headphones are on sale for under $200 during Prime Day. ILLUSTRATION: FORBES / PHOTO: RETAILER The Sony WF-1000XM4 usually retails for $280, but can usually be had for around $250. Honestly, we’re surprised to see these headphones selling for under $200 right now. They are relatively new and represent Sony’s flagship headphones. All things considered, we don’t expect to see the price this low again until Black Friday later this year. This product is also sold at Best Buy for $198. Make no mistake: As headphones go, these are the best of the best. We also love competitors like the Bowers & Wilkins PI7, Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 and even the Apple AirPods Pro, but the WF-1000XM4 has amazing active noise cancellation, great sound quality and fits most ears perfectly. These headphones are overflowing with extremely useful features. If you want to hear the ambient sounds around you, the WF-1000XM4 has a transparency mode with adjustable ambient noise detection. Want to go out in the rain? They stand out for IPX4 water resistance. You can use them hands-free with Siri, Google Assistant or Alexa. And you can get up to eight hours of battery life between charges. Plus, they look pretty cool. The only real complaint we had with the WF-1000XM4 is their high price, but right now you can get the best wireless noise-cancelling headphones money can buy for under $200. AirPods Pro are currently cheaper at $170, but we’d be fooling Sony. They are worth it.
