TheSonyWF-1000XM4 wireless earbuds could be revealed as early as next week, if the wording of Sony’s upcomingYouTube livestream– titled “Sony Announcement for Music Lovers June 2021” – is to be taken literally.
Spotted byGSM Arena, the livestream is taking place on June 8 at 12pm ET, 9am PT and 5pm BST. The slogan on the livestream’s placeholder thumbnail reads: “Truly silent. Tailored 4 you,” potentially hinting at a reveal for the WF-1000XM4 wireless earbuds.
It’s of course important to note that the Sony WF-1000XM4 wireless earbuds haven’t been officially confirmed, and the reveal and release date are at this point speculative. However,recent leaksmay have revealed the specs and design of the WF-1000XM4. As such, a full reveal may be imminent and potentially in Sony’s upcoming livestream.
The Sony standard
Much like the superbSony WF-1000XM3wireless earbuds, the rumored WF-1000XM4 buds are suspected to feature active noise cancelling if the leaks are accurate. However, the WF-1000MX4 could go one step further, potentially being powered by the new Sony V1 processor which should better help to counteract external noise.
The WF-1000XM4 leaks also make mention of the price point, suspected to be around $340 / £240 / AU$440. That’s a tad more expensive than the WF-1000XM3 wireless earbuds at launch, but that’s to be expected given the extra power the WF-1000XM4 supposedly packs.
Whether we’ll see the Sony WF-1000XM4 wireless earbuds on June 8, or a bit later, we’re still expecting another best-in-class showcase from the tech giant. Of course, we’ll keep you updated if and when the Sony WF-1000XM4 wireless earbuds are announced.
