Sony Reportedly Planning Cheaper WH-1000XM4 Headphones
Sony may release a more affordable version of its WH-1000XM4 noise-canceling headphones next month, according to leaks. The new model is expected to offer similar performance at a reduced price.
Sony is reportedly planning to launch a less expensive variant of its popular WH-1000XM4 wireless noise-canceling headphones in early September. The move follows the recent release of the company's high-end $650 The Collexion headphones.
Details obtained from reliable leaker billbil-kun suggest the upcoming model, potentially named WH-1000XM4C, will retain the core performance and specifications of the original WH-1000XM4. Pricing is expected to be around €249.99 or £219.99, which translates to approximately $289 to $297.
The new headphones are anticipated to be available in black, silver, and lavender color options. This strategy could aim to broaden the appeal of Sony's 1000X headphone line by offering a more accessible entry point.
The company has not officially confirmed these plans. Further details regarding availability and specific features are expected closer to the rumored September launch.
