Sony has yet to make an announcement on its newly unlaunched WH-1000XM4 noise-cancelling headphones. However, full specifications of the headphones have been leaked in a new listing on Walmart’s website.

According to the listing, the headphones will feature new AI features to enhance compressed music, the ability to connect to multiple devices at once, and a $348 price tag, via Android Police.
