The WH-1000MX4
Looks identical to the XM3.It’ll be able to change some (if not all) headphone settings based on your location (set locations or your own) and uses Google Maps API for it. New DSSE Extreme (also on X1ii), probably AI Upscaling pic.twitter.com/7hpGMIE7Bb — JustPlayingHard (@justplayinghard) May 21, 2020 According to the report, the initial teardown was from a twitter user, JustPlayingHard, and then looked into more detail from the folks over at XDA Developers. The main feature that they took out from it was that the headphones would now feature multiple device support. This would be similar to the one offered by Microsoft on their Surface Headphones. Although people would have to connect over to the other device to move towards it, but it would definitely be a seamless pair as compared to what we have now with the unpairing. Additionally, this would mean that Sony would be letting go of LDAC support. It seems a bummer but we guess the company didn’t find it important enough to satisfy a specific number of customers out there. The headphones would feature DSEE Extreme, a version of their AI system which allows the headphones to upscale the audio output from lower resolution files. This is an enhanced version of the current DSEE HX found on the headphones currently (WH-1000MX3). There is also a new smart-talking feature included in the new headphones. What it would do is detect voices automatically and enable ambient sound mode without users having to enable it by themselves.

Perhaps there may be some improvements to the battery and the fast charging. Even if it doesn’t, there isn’t much wrong with them in that area. These headphones, the WH-1000MX3s, are actually top-notch!
