The WH-1000XM4 are built from the ground up to deliver stellar sound, no matter the listening environment you find yourself in. It all starts with Sony’s Dual Noise Sensor technology. Two microphones (one per cup) actively capture ambient sound and filter the data to the onboard HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN1. Your headphones will then adjust your listening experience, based on what the QN1 decodes. Not only will your music and podcasts sound perfect everywhere, but so will your phone calls. The 1000MX4 use five dedicated microphones that isolate and enhance your speaking. We also love the speak-to-chat function. If you need to talk to another human (crazy, right?), just start talking and your music will automatically pause.

Bluetooth pairing is quick and easy, and intuitive touch controls are mapped to each headphone, making it easy to play/pause, rewind, skip, and answer calls. If you’ve got Alexa at home, you’re in luck. Alexa-compatible, the 1000XM4 can also be used to access music, news and weather, and more. Oh, and did we mention that these are amazing wireless headphones? The rechargeable battery will last up to 30 hours on a single charge, and only 10 minutes of charging will net you five additional hours of listening. If you like balancing your own EQ and soundstages, the Sony Headphones Connect app (iOS and Android) lets you adjust sound presets, including Ambient Noise. Best of all, this deal also comes with a $25 Amazon gift card.

High-quality headphones typically go for $300 or more, so this is a big deal. Down $75 from their normal selling price of $373, the 1000XM4s deliver breathtaking sound, impressive active noise cancellation, and easy Bluetooth pairing for all your preferred devices. There’s not much time left to get the best deals for Prime Day, but do check out some of the other great deals you can find on Amazon right now.

Marshall launches Acton IV and Stanmore IV

Marshall has refreshed two of its most popular wireless speakers. The company has officially unveiled the Acton IV and Stanmore IV, bringing a series of meaningful upgrades that go beyond simply making them louder. While improved bass and cleaner sound are part of the package, Marshall is also making a welcome push toward repairability, allowing owners to replace several external components instead of replacing the entire speaker.

I was skeptical of clip-style open earbuds. After trying my first pair, I don’t want to go back
No pressure, no plugged-up feeling, no fatigue. After months of all-day wear, open-air audio earclips have earned a permanent spot in my routine.
Baseus Bowie MC2 earclip earbuds.

I am not what you would call an audiophile. I don't obsess over terms like LDAC and DSEE upscaling. For me, they're just another utilitarian gadget to get the job done. Somewhere along the way, however, I stopped judging earbuds purely on how they sound and started paying closer attention to how naturally they fit into an ordinary day.

So much of this category now chases bass, noise cancellation, and a spec sheet full of features that comfort has quietly become an afterthought. I recently got a chance to try the Baseus Bowie MC2, my first pair of earclip-style earbuds. It came as a revelation for me. I picked them up from Amazon at $40, so it wasn't a big hit on my wallet either. The leap of faith, I'd say, was well worth it.
