While Sony’s next WH-1000XM4 headset will sound like its popular predecessor like two drops of water, it will also have better battery life.

In any case, this is what we learn in a leak relayed by the American site The Verge on the highly anticipated successor to the WH-1000XM3 on-ear headphones. The latter had charmed users and our team with its unrivaled noise reduction system.

The leak that revealed Sony's WH-1000XM4 helmet

In fact, the first images of the helmet were published by Anatel, the Brazilian agency that must, among other things, validate an electronic product before marketing it. We are therefore far from the millimeter scenography of manufacturers' promotional photos.

However, we can already see that the M4 is practically identical to the M3. But Anatel also published the user manual. Yes most of the technical specifications remain secret, the manual partially reveals what Sony has in store for its WH-1000XM4 headphones.

What the M4 does better than the M3

Among the novelties that we can hope for, we can cite the presence of Bluetooth 5 instead of version 4.2. The power consumption also goes from 8 watts to just 2. In addition, a feature called " Speak to chat »Could signal better integration of voice assistants. As a reminder, you must currently press a button to activate Google Assistant, Siri or Alexa on the M3.

However, audiophiles will especially appreciate the autonomy of the Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones which goes to 40 hrs wired connection with noise reduction to its maximum. The presence of Bluetooth 5 and a power consumption reduced to a quarter of that of the M3 also augurs a good autonomy even in wireless use.

If Sony manages to maintain the price of the WH-1000XM4 at 379 euros for the M3 at its release, the brand may well appeal to consumers with a second helmet. We should know more soon.
