Acerca de este Headphones
About Sony WH-1000XM4 Sony WH-1000XM4.ONLY MUSIC.NOTHING ELSE.Sony’s intelligent industry-leading noise canceling headphones with premium sound elevate your listening experience with the ability to personalize and control everything you hear. Industry-Leading Noise Cancelation.Industry-leading noise cancellation technology means you hear every word, note, and tune with incredible clarity, no matter your environment. These noise canceling headphones feature additional microphones that assist in isolating sound for a reduction of even more high and mid frequency sounds. The Technology That Makes It Happen.Dual noise sensor technology, featuring two microphones on each earcup, captures ambient noise and passes the data to the HD Noise-Canceling Processor QN1. Using a new algorithm, the HD Noise-Canceling Processor QN1 then applies noise-canceling processing in real time to a range of acoustic environments. Working together with a new Bluetooth® Audio SoC (System on Chip), it senses and adjusts to music and noise signals, as well as acoustic characteristics between the driver unit and ears, at over 700 times per second.
Optimizing Noise Canceling.To maximize noise-canceling performance, the WH-1000XM4 headphones incorporate two technologies: Personal Noise-Canceling Optimizer, designed specifically for you, and Atmospheric Pressure Optimizing, designed specifically for air travel. Ambient Sound Control.Adjust ambient sound with the Sony | Headphones Connect app to cancel noise while still allowing essential sounds, like overhead announcements, through when you're listening on the move.
Wireless Freedom, Premium Sound.LDAC transmits approximately three times more data (at the maximum transfer rate of 990 kbps) than conventional BLUETOOTH® audio, allowing you to enjoy High-Resolution Audio content in exceptional quality, as close as possible to that of a dedicated wired connection. Sound You Can Believe In.A built-in analog amplifier integrated in the HD Noise-Canceling Processor QN1 realizes an unmatched signal-to-noise ratio for low distortion and exceptional sound quality for portable devices. Powerful 1.57" drivers, with Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) diaphragms, make the headphones perfect for handling heavy beats and can reproduce a full range of frequencies up to 40 kHz.
Real-Time Restoration Of All Your Compressed Files.Using Edge-AI (Artificial Intelligence) co-developed with Sony Music Studios Tokyo, DSEE Extreme™ (Digital Sound Enhancement Engine) upscales compressed digital music files in real time. Dynamically recognizing instrumentation, musical genres, and individual elements of each song, such as vocals or interludes, it restores the high-range sound lost in compression for a richer, more complete listening experience
Smart Listening Technology To Enhance Your Listening.The WH-1000XM4 headphones use an array of smart technologies to create a seamless, hands-free listening experience. For example, simply start speaking to automatically pause your music in Speak-to-Chat, or enjoy adaptive playback thanks to the proximity sensor and two acceleration sensors that detect whether your headphones are being worn or not. For Everyday Convenience, Just Speak-to-Chat.As soon as you speak to someone, Speak-to-Chat automatically stops the music and lets in ambient sound so you can conduct a conversation—handy if you want to keep your headphones on, or your hands are full. Based on Precise Voice Pickup Technology, this smart feature uses five microphones built into your headphones and advanced audio signal processing to recognize and react to your voice. And once your chat is over, your music starts playing again automatically. Traveling.Lose yourself in your journey, with no background noise to interrupt your favorite tracks.
Waiting.Hear important announcements while you wait without noticing other background noise. Learns Your Favorite Locations.Over time, Adaptive Sound Control learns to recognize locations that you frequently visit, such as your workplace, the gym, or a favorite café, and tailors sound to suit the situation.
Headphones That React To You.Proximity sensor and two acceleration sensors in your headphones can detect whether you're wearing them or not, then adapt playback accordingly to help save battery power. Pause The Music.Take off your headphones and the music pauses automatically.
Resume Playing.Put the headphones back on and the music automatically resumes. Quick Attention.Need to quickly hear voices or sounds around you? Just place your hand over the housing to instantly turn your music volume down and let ambient sound in.
Wear All Day In Total Comfort.WH-1000XM4 headphones blend sophisticated style with exceptional comfort. Super-soft, pressure-relieving ear pads in foamed urethane evenly distribute pressure and increase ear/pad contact for a stable fit. And with a lighter-weight design, you'll barely notice you're wearing them.
All Day Power & Quick Charging.With a huge 30 hours of battery life, you'll have enough power even for long trips. And if you need to top up in a hurry, you can get 5 hours' worth of charge after just 10 minutes with the optional AC adapter
Be Smarter With Voice Assistant.Manage your day, just by asking your assistant. Enjoy entertainment, connect with friends, get information, listen to music and notifications, set reminders, and more.
Clearer Hands-Free Calling.Conversation flows freely with easy, hands-free calling. Leave your phone where it is, just speak with a double tap. Thanks to Precise Voice Pickup Technology, which combines five built-in microphones with advanced audio signal processing, WH-1000XM4 delivers clearer voice quality to the other person on the phone.
Control At Your Fingertips.Change the track, turn the volume up or down, and take or make calls just by tapping or swiping the panel. Sony | Headphones Connect App.With the Sony | Headphones Connect app, Ambient Sound Control lets you adjust the volume of background sound and gives you the option to allow voices alone to be heard. Meanwhile the Equalizer lets you customize sound levels to suit your music.
Swivel Foldable Structure.The ear cups swivel inwards so they pack up neatly in a compact case.

En 30 segundos
Los Sony WH-1000XM4 siguen teniendo una de las mejores cancelaciones de ruido del mercado, un sonido de altísimo nivel y 30 horas de batería con carga rápida. Por menos de $225 son una ganga comparados con rivales como Bose o Sennheiser. La comodidad es correcta pero no sobresaliente, y los micrófonos en llamadas podrían ser mejores. Si lo que buscas es silencio puro y no te importa un ajuste normal, van a encantarte.
Resumen
Los Sony WH-1000XM4 llevan ya un tiempo en el mercado, pero todavía son el punto de referencia para cualquiera que busque pasar desapercibido en un avión, una oficina ruidosa o simplemente disfrutar de su música sin que el mundo exterior se cuele. Han bajado de precio de forma considerable y ahora se encuentran en esa zona dulce donde el rendimiento top se cruza con una relación calidad-precio difícil de ignorar. Si alguna vez has dudado entre gastar más en los últimos lanzamientos o apostar por un clásico probado, este es el momento de prestarles atención.
Hablamos de unos cascos circumaurales cerrados con drivers dinámicos de 40 mm, Bluetooth 5.0, soporte para LDAC y una cancelación de ruido adaptativa que, según nuestra base de datos, roza la perfección. No son los más nuevos del catálogo de Sony, pero el hecho de que sigan vendiéndose como churros y acumulen más de 265.000 valoraciones con una media de 4.6 sobre 5 te da una pista: aquí hay algo que funciona muy bien.
La gran pregunta no es si cancelan bien el ruido (spoiler: sí, y mucho), sino si sus puntos flacos han envejecido mal frente a lo que ofrecen Bose, Sennheiser o incluso los propios XM5. Nosotros los hemos puesto a prueba, hemos buceado en las opiniones de miles de compradores y te contamos sin filtros lo que realmente importa.
Rendimiento
Aquí el plato fuerte es el ANC. Sony consiguió con los XM4 un nivel de aislamiento que todavía hoy está en el podio, y los números no mienten: se sitúa en el percentil 98 de todos los auriculares que hemos analizado. En la práctica, eso significa que el zumbido de un avión o el traqueteo del metro se convierten en un murmullo casi imperceptible. La cancelación adaptativa ajusta la intensidad según el entorno sin que tú tengas que tocar nada, y el modo de atención rápida bajando el volumen con la mano en el auricular derecho es un detalle que se agradece cuando te cruzas con alguien.
El sonido es otro de sus pilares. Con LDAC activado y una fuente de alta resolución, los 40 mm ofrecen una escena detallada, graves contundentes sin empacho y unos agudos nítidos que rara vez resultan fatigantes. Dentro de nuestra base de datos, la calidad de audio roza el percentil 97, dejando claro que estamos ante unos auriculares que contentan tanto al que escucha podcasts como al que exige matices en sus discos favoritos. El micrófono, con sus cinco unidades y cancelación de ruido para llamadas, cumple de sobra en interiores, aunque en la calle el viento le pasa factura y se defiende peor que en algunos rivales más recientes. En cuanto a batería, las 30 horas con ANC encendido están por encima de la media, y los 10 minutos de carga rápida para 5 horas de uso son un salvavidas cuando te pillan con prisas.
Ventajas y desventajas
Pros
- Cancelación de ruido prácticamente insuperable, ideal para viajes y oficina 98th

- Conectividad multipunto para saltar entre el móvil y el portátil sin complicaciones 94th

- Construcción mayoritariamente plástica, correcta pero sin sensación premium
- Micrófono para llamadas solo aceptable en exterior, por debajo de Bose
- Algunas unidades presentan fallos de fábrica puntuales, como ANC desbalanceado
- No incluyen estuche rígido que esté a la altura de su precio original

Relación calidad-precio
El recorrido comercial de los XM4 ha sido curioso: llegaron a costar más de $350, pero ahora los encuentras entre $224 y $430 dependiendo del vendedor. El precio más bajo, $224, es una ganga para lo que ofrecen. Piensa que los Bose QuietComfort Ultra rara vez bajan de $300, y los Sennheiser MOMENTUM 4, aunque estiran la batería hasta 60 horas, suelen moverse en una franja similar. Por menos de $250 te llevas el que para muchos sigue siendo el rey del silencio.
Eso sí, ojo con el vendedor: la diferencia de hasta $206 entre tiendas es enorme. Si compras en el extremo alto de ese rango, los XM5 o los propios QC Ultra empiezan a tener más sentido. Nuestra recomendación es buscar el mejor precio disponible (a menudo en Amazon) y entonces sí, dar el salto sin remordimientos. A esa tarifa, el rendimiento por dólar es difícil de batir.
Frente a la competencia
Comparados con los Bose QuietComfort Ultra, la pelea está reñida. Los Bose ganan en comodidad absoluta y ofrecen un audio espacial más envolvente, pero su ANC no es claramente superior; además, suelen costar más y no se pliegan de forma tan compacta. Si pasas muchas horas con los cascos puestos y tu prioridad es no sentir presión, quizá los Bose sean más tu rollo. Si prefieres un sonido más dinámico y un precio más amable, los XM4 se llevan el gato al agua.
Frente a los Sennheiser MOMENTUM 4, la decisión se reduce a batería y firma sonora. Los Sennheiser doblan la autonomía y tienen un perfil ligeramente más cálido y detallista, pero su cancelación de ruido no llega al nivel de Sony. Los Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S3 apuestan por materiales de lujo y una escena sonora amplísima, aunque su ANC es menos quirúrgico y el precio de partida es notablemente más alto. Los Technics EAH-A800 son una alternativa sólida si buscas buen sonido y controles físicos, pero carecen de la magia de Sony en la cancelación. Y los JBL Live 770NC juegan en otra liga: cuestan mucho menos, pero su ANC y su definición sonora no pueden competir con este grupo. En conjunto, los XM4 siguen siendo el comodín más equilibrado.

Preguntas frecuentes
Q: ¿Cuánto duran realmente con la cancelación de ruido activada?
Los XM4 alcanzan hasta 30 horas de reproducción con ANC encendido, según nuestras pruebas. Además, con solo 10 minutos de carga por USB-C obtienes 5 horas de música, lo que salva cualquier olvido antes de salir de casa.
Q: ¿Puedo conectar dos dispositivos a la vez?
Sí, soportan Bluetooth multipunto de forma que puedes estar viendo una película en el portátil y cambiar a una llamada del móvil sin necesidad de reemparejar. La gestión es fluida aunque a veces la conmutación no es instantánea.
Q: ¿Se pueden usar con cable si se agota la batería?
Sí, incluyen un cable de 3.5 mm que te permite usarlos de forma pasiva incluso sin encenderlos. Ten en cuenta que en modo pasivo la cancelación de ruido no funciona y el sonido cambia ligeramente, pero cumplen como auriculares cableados básicos.
Q: ¿Merece la pena comprarlos ahora que existen los XM5?
Los WH-1000XM5 mejoran ligeramente el ANC y son más cómodos, pero cuestan bastante más y no se pliegan. Si valoras la portabilidad y encuentras los XM4 por debajo de $250, la diferencia de precio hace que sigan siendo una opción muy sensata.
Para quién no es adecuado
Si trabajas en producción musical y necesitas una respuesta plana de monitorización, estos Sony no son la herramienta adecuada porque, aunque detallan mucho, colorean el sonido con un perfil de consumo que enmascara ciertas frecuencias. En ese caso, unos auriculares de estudio como los Audio-Technica ATH-M50x o los Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro te servirán mucho más. Tampoco te los recomendaría si la máxima prioridad es una comodidad celestial para jornadas interminables: los Bose QuietComfort Ultra se llevan de calle la ergonomía, y para ti esa pequeña ventaja en confort puede marcar la diferencia entre usarlos a diario o dejarlos en el cajón.
Veredicto
Si te mueves por el principio de "mejor cancelación de ruido posible sin arruinarte", los WH-1000XM4 son una apuesta segurísima. Su capacidad para aislarte del mundo es difícil de superar, suenan fenomenal y la batería aguanta un vuelo transatlántico de sobra. Además, al plegarse ocuparán menos espacio en la mochila que los XM5, un detalle que los viajeros agradecen.
Ahora bien, no son para todo el mundo. Si tu prioridad es una comodidad de ocho horas diarias sin pestañear, mejor mira hacia los Bose QC Ultra. Si necesitas un perfil de sonido totalmente plano para mezclas y producción, estos Sony tiñen el audio con un carácter de consumo que no te servirá. Para el resto de mortales que buscan unos cascos inalámbricos con ANC bestial, buena autonomía y un precio que ahora mismo está por los suelos, los XM4 se mantienen como una de las recomendaciones más fáciles de hacer.
