Also on 1.4.2 here. Even after factory resetting my buds, the left side still drains at an incredible rate from full to off in just 30 mins.

Prior to 1.4.2, it's working perfectly fine.

Maybe 1.5.0 is some pre release fw off the factory before a final drops. Hope these help with the battery drain that I sent in previously to service for.

My left bud drains very fast. In an hour, full charged to 20%. Still under warranty so dropped it off at Somerset. Only can collect back after 2 weeks....

My left bud drains the same rate as you, from full to disconnect in 30mins. But I'm holding out till next firmware update, so not using my XM4 for now.

Anyone had issue with the noise cancelling?
My set went for service about a month then now I feel the noise cancelling is not as strong?
When I rub 2 fingers with each other right beside the earpiece I can hear the rubbing sound when noise cancelling is on?
Or when in mrt I can hear the announcement even though I have music playing?

Luckily I saw this post, I taught mine defective also as I can hear the announcement.

Using the Azla Crystal Eartips also the original tips wore out in less than a month... Not sure if warranty can claim new pair anot. Anyone can advise?

Sadly, my ear hole size is in between S and SS I guess, so maybe the seal not so good & sound can still leak in.

Now that you've mentioned it try to achieve seal using eartips first. If you want try size, maybe you go Zepp&Co at sim lim ask for acoustune AET07, AET08 try the sizes and see if the sounds fits what youre looking for

I just sent in my WF-1000XM4 to Sony this morning, thought for a while better to send it in instead since I'm still within my extended 3 mths warranty so let them have a thorough check. Waiting time estimated 1-2 weeks, but I'm not in a hurry.
