Excellent noise cancellation

I've only been using these earbuds for a day. I purchased them specifically for noise cancellation. I live adjoining a busy street and work at night, so getting restful sleep is a luxury. I slept really well last night - so 5/5 for noise cancellation. I've used other noise-cancelling earbuds and headphones in the past. The WF100XM4 is better in that department than all of those, but it was also very comfortable to wear while sleeping. The others get irritating after a couple hours of wearing.

Regarding the sound quality, note that I have only used these for a day, but first impressions, I didn't love it. It's alright, but it's not why you'd want to buy these earbuds. I am still rating it a 5/5 because my purpose in buying them wasn't about the sound quality but for it to afford me a restful sleep.

Hey there, thank you for the great review and ratings! So delighted that you are loving your purchase. Hope you had a comfortable shopping experience. Cheers!

Sony the king of all

Sony usually does all things right, These earphones are one of them. You get the best of everything except price. But now that the XM5s are almost here, these will get easier on the budget side.

Thank you for the review! we appreciate it.

Valuable birthday gift

I always felt, I love the sounds than lyrics, may be because I enjoyed my first song in Bose, my wife is never a fan of expensive ear pods but before few days of her birthday her ear pods stopped working, then I thought of my favorite brand and gifted it, now she is enjoying it like anything

Hey Varun, thank you so much for the amazing feedback! It means a lot to us. We are so happy to hear that you are loving our products and services.

"I think this might just be my new Masterpiece."

The smile on Aldo's face when he drew out the Nazi symbol on Hans Landa, was the exact same smile I had on my face as I found out the perfect EQ setting. The tech is great! Like exceptionally great, it's got everything you could ask for. If you speak then the music drops, of course you can switch that setting off when you want to sing along. Its ambient, and ANC feels like I have tech ears, weird right? But to be honest its actually really cool when on a tap you can just remove any sound you want.
Really Cool Features:
1) When you have the ambient mode on, and you're shutting the door of your car, the slap of the wind doesnt hit you. You'll have to try it to really understand.
2) When you speak the music shuts off and plays back again in 10 seconds.
3) it knows where you are and activates NC automatically.
4) Sounds so good, you ll cry.

Cool Features:
1) It looks great. Like a really fancy earpiece.
2) Wireless charging... WTH
3) SUCH a long battery life, I had it for a week, and I only charged it once.

Not as cool Features:
1) The ear tips feels kinda rough on the ear... I had almost 0 earphone usage for 2 years (not kidding), and putting this on for more than 30 mins kinda made my ears rough.
2) cant sleep with it if you sleep on 1 side of your head. keeps clicking buttons.
3) Not as great a connectivity with apple as with android. I would have loved if it would have features like the Airpods for ANC and ambient. But cant complain because you can download an app and do all that stuff.

I would 100% recommend this if you care for sound. This is a premium product, with excellent sound, so respect the sound. Airpods pros dont even come close to this sound.

Thanks a lot for your detailed and genuine feedback, we're glad that you have such positive thoughts about the product and we'll share your thoughts with the brand as well. It'll also help our fellow customers to make the right choice!

Best pair of TWS

I upgraded to these from my 3 year old wf1000xm3s mainly for their LDAC support. On listening to Lossless music from Apple music, I can hear the difference. Noise cancellation also got a nice upgrade but still don't expect wh1000xm4 levels from these. They are mainly for music quality in a convenient form factor. I am using these with Pixel 7 Pro which does support LDAC and these sound awesome with those. Overall a no nonsense, convenient, beginner audiophil-ish set up.

Active Noise Cancellation

Everyone enjoys a little peace at some point and wants to shut themselves off from the outside world. This is where Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) comes into the picture. So what exactly is Active Noise Cancellation?


Noise Cancellation refers to blocking out background noise/ambient noise. But let's be clear: No Noise-Cancelling Museum can eliminate all sound; they can only considerably reduce outside noise, creating the impression that the noise is suppressed. However, when the phrase "Active Noise Cancellation" is used, it signifies that the Museum are actively searching for noise to block it out.


ANC is a technology that reduces or cancels out the surrounding or ambient noise. It reduces low-frequency noise like the sound of a jet engine or car engine. ANC specifically reduces low-frequency noise well. However, it is not capable of cancelling out high-frequency noise optimally. Museum with ANC deliver class-leading ambient noise reduction, significantly improving sound quality.


If you're someone who is a frequent flyer, ANC helps eliminate constant droning noises from jet engines so you can sleep more easily during long-haul flights.

Gesture Controls

Gestures Controls in Museum give you control of various functions at the tip of your finger (literally). The easy-to-use touch control interface allows intuitive gesture controls for volume and music playback – you can swipe forward/backwards to switch tracks and up/down to adjust volume (may vary with devices).


With Gesture controls onboard you don’t have to reach for your source device to execute simple tasks. This elevates the listening experience.


Voice Assistant

These Museum offer you the convenience and functionality of using Voice assistants like Google Assist and Siri (dependent on your source device, be it Android or iOS) without having to disconnect them from your source device.


If you’re someone who summons the voice assistant on your device regularly to accomplish tasks, then these Museum are designed to be your friend.


You can expect these Museum to come equipped with a high-quality microphone to activate your voice assistant and mediate your voice commands. There is no complication or hassle as these Museum come with seamless support for voice commands.


These are simply the top-tier True Wireless earbuds made. The only competitor that is worth comparing it to is the Airpods Pro. And this beats it in every way. It's much more comfortable, sounds great, and is much more compact. But perhaps the biggest USP is the Active Noise Cancellation, which is simply the best anywhere.
