In addition, it seems that the WH-1000XM4 itself monitors the surrounding sound and automatically stops noise canceling when someone speaks to it, making it easier to hear the voice.
Intensifying competition with other companies’ products
AirPods Studio is rumored to appear in the over-ear headphones market in this price range, and BOSE, a pioneer in this market, releases a complete wireless earphone with active noise canceling function that Apple and SONY can compete with.
