MTW2 very meh for the price according to this youtuber.


You can find them on the online shops for as low as SGD$359 now. For that price, his review is moot. Assuming you don't have fit issues, the MTW2s have wonderful tuning, an expansive soundstage, firmware upgradability plus an app that's being actively developed. They're expensive when compared to a pair of Soundpeats, for example, but the MTW2s are worth it, especially if you can find them cheap.

Would have gotten the mtw2 if they supported mono use on both earbuds.

Leaked Sony WH-1000XM4 promo video shows the upcoming noise cancelling headphones in action

Ryne Hager
14 hours ago

A promo video for Sony's upcoming WH-1000XM4 noise-canceling headphones has leaked, confirming most of the various details we already knew about the awaited XM3 successor, while showing off that near-identical design in action.


Although almost all of the of the headphone's rumored specs have been confirmed between an app teardown and a prior Walmart leak, here's everything from the video in an easily parsed table:


Drivers --- 40mm "HD hybrid drivers."

Misc. Audio features ---
DSEE extreme real-time audio upscaling tuned to specific genres/types; "adaptive sound control" for ambient speech and sound pass-through, tunable by location; "speak-to-chat" that pauses your music while you're talking.

Active noise cancellation ---
"HD noise canceling processor QN1" with "dual noise sensor technology."

Battery ---"30 hours," with fast charging — 10 minute charge for 5 hours of playback.
Controls --- Earpiece capacitive/touch controls, on-ear detection.
Integrations --- Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa.


Most of the headlining changes since the (outstanding) XM3 are sort of "smart" features. Things like the various adaptive sound pass-through modes, further tunable on a per-location basis. It also has DSEE extreme audio upscaling, which ostensibly recognizes the type of music you're listening to and upscales it to sound better. Note that the XM3s had a similar tech, but this is purported to be better. And while the XM3s had great sound and a built-in Assistant, they didn't pause while you spoke or dynamically adjust themselves to allow ambient noise in certain circumstances, but the upcoming XM4 will.

Though the video doesn't mention it, multi-device pairing has also previously leaked for the headphones, though there are a few caveats like giving up certain codecs or having to manually disconnect to switch between more than two devices.

Surprisingly, these new smarts don't mean a reduction in longevity. Sony advertises up to 30 hours of battery life, with a ten-minute charge (at sufficient power levels) providing up to 5 hours of playback. Those are the same numbers Sony advertised for the XM3.

More pricing details have also leaked via a (since removed) product listing, which points to a £349 cost in the UK — though we were already sure the US price was somewhere around $350 based on Walmart's earlier leak.

As before, it looks like we're getting them in two colors: Black and Silver-which-is-sort-of-gold.

With full promo videos now leaking, I don't anticipate we'll have much longer to wait for an official announcement.
