Sony is a well-established brand in the world of noise canceling headphones. Over the last several years, the Big S has released some of the best ANC over-ear and in-ear products, and the brand shows no signs of stopping. Fortunately, newer headphones mean that an older generation tends to be priced cheaper. Such is the case with this great offer we found on a great set of Sony cans:

Right now, when you order the Sony WH-1000XM4 Wireless Headphones through Crutchfield or Amazon, you’ll save $50 on your purchase. Usually this model is $350. We tested these cans a few years ago and reviewer Simon Cohen had this to say: “Sony’s WH-1000XM4 are what perfect looks like.”

Why you should buy the Sony WH-1000XM4

The Sony XM4 are a very comfortable pair of ANC headphones that can last for quite a long time on a full charge. In most cases, you’ll get up to 35 hours of playback, and it only takes about 2.5 hours to recharge these headphones. But we’re all here to learn about the sound quality, right? Yeah, these Sonys are simply breathtaking in that regard. Expect brilliant highs and energetic, punchy low-end from these bad boys, which bodes particularly well for movie fans and gaming fanatics who love a lot of bass in their audio mixes.

The real reason to write home about these cans, though, is the ANC experience. The Sony XM4 are able to block out bass-heavy distractions like engine noise, construction crews, and HVAC systems. Still, it can also deaden nearby conversations and other noises, ensuring you hear nothing but your favorite music and podcasts. We’re also big fans of the Sony Sound Connect app, which lets you assign different EQ presets (as well as create your own), monitor battery level, download updates, and more.

Historically, the Sony XM4 hasn’t dipped much in price over the last few years, so any sale is cause for running out and buying these! Save $50 when you order the Sony WH-1000XM4 at Crutchfield, and be sure to check out our list of the best Sony WH-1000XM5 deals (the generation after the XM4). We also have a list of great headphone deals from other brands, too!

I didn't expect Samsung to be the one crossing the finish line first here, given how much noise Dolby Vision 2 made when it was announced (September 2025). 

The company has confirmed its next HDR format, and it’s arriving on a popular OTT platform this month, beating Dolby Vision 2 to the punch.

Google Drive steps up its video collaboration game with timestamped comments
Google Drive's timestamped comments pin feedback to exact moments in videos.

Over the years, I’ve collaborated with many video editors and content creator friends of mine, often pointing out things like how the text isn’t visible around the two-minute mark or how the transition in the opening sequence feels a little off. 

However, most of the time, they would end up scrubbing through the whole clip trying to find what I meant, or they'd ask me to send a screenshot of the exact moment I was referring to. Considering I wasn’t charging anything to spot those issues, that extra effort always stung a little. Thankfully, Google’s latest Workspace update finally fixes that.
