    Despite everything that happened in 2020, the smartphone launches didn't stop. Now, we're a month into 2021 and a lot of major smartphone brands are gearing up to launch their new devices. A lot of brands like Samsung, Xiaomi, Oppo, etc. have already launched their phones in India, and a lot more are rumored to come out next month.

    Xiaomi is looking to bring the world's first Snapdragon 888-powered smartphone, the Mi 11 to India next month. The phone is already out in China and it's an all-in-one device with flagship specs. The Mi 11 will be a successor to the Mi 10 flagship and it's expected to cost around Rs 40,000 in India. It'll be interesting to see how the phone turns out and how it's received by the consumers here in India.

The phone is also said to feature AMOLED panels and more. We'll be learning more about these devices soon, so stay tuned.

    The battle of the two noise cancellation headphones is something we’ve been looking forward to as much as you. The two headphones are known for being amongst the best noise cancellation headphones and we couldn’t resist pitting both of them against each other. We will be evaluating both headphones in terms of design, sound, value and features to determine which one is the best headphone to purchase in 2021. Here’s our comparison of the AirPods Max and the Sony WH- 1000XM4 that might interest audiophiles and sound enthusiasts:
    1. Design  © MensXP_Akshay Bhalla
    When it comes to the design, Apple knows how to craft premium devices and the AirPods Max have got the same treatment as well. Sony’s WH-1000XM4 is by no means basic but in comparison to the AirPods Max, it does lack that premium feel. Having said that, due to the WH-1000XM4’s plastic body, it is fairly lighter and easier to use than the AirPods Max. Both headphones offer great functionality as well, however we prefer Apple’s Digital Crown for volume control and the dedicated noise cancellation button more. Overall, AirPods Max’s design is much more convenient and feels great to use. 

    Winner: AirPods Max 
    2. Sound Customisations  © Apple and Sony
    When it comes to sound quality, both headphones offer great performance, highly controlled mids and well-tuned drivers. Having said that, the Sony WH- 1000XM4 offers more customisations via its proprietary app and adjust the sound to your liking. The AirPods Max, however does not offer any solution and instead forces users to choose from presets that can be found in the audio settings. In this department, the WH-1000XM4 has a clear edge over the AirPods Max until Apple lets users fine-tune different frequencies according to their liking. Apple does have something called ‘Adaptive EQ,’ however it isn’t as comprehensive as Sony’s EQ levering feature within its app. 

    Winner: Sony WH-1000XM4
    3. Sound Quality  © MensXP
    The AirPods Max and WH-1000XM4 both come from companies who have a long history with audio products. There’s no doubt that both headphones offer one of the best sounding experiences you can get from a wireless over-the-ear headphone. If I had to choose between the two, I won’t be able to as both sound incredible. You can read more about the WH-1000XM4 and the AirPods Max on our website where we go in more detail. That said, Apple has a slight edge over the Sony WH-1000XM4’s thanks to its ‘Spatial Audio’ feature. 

    Winner: Draw 
    4. Noise Cancellation © Apple
    Sony has been at the forefront of noise-cancellation technology for the past few years and we can finally see Apple catching up to the competition with the AirPods Max. Having said that, we do prefer Apple’s easy to use noise cancellation mode by simply tapping on a button to switch between transparency mode and noise cancellation. On the Sony WH-1000XM4s, one has to use the touch sensor to activate or deactivate the ANC feature which is not as intuitive as Apple’s offering. 

    Winner: AirPods Max 
    5. Accessories  © Sony
    Both the Sony WH-1000XM4 and the AirPods Max come with accessories, however the former offers a more robust set of add-ons. The AirPods Max only come with a case that doesn’t even protect the headphones from drop damage. In the case of the Sony WH-1000XM4, the headphones come with a proper carry case that protects it from fall damage, scratches and other types of damage it may experience in a carry bag. Apart from the case, the WH-1000XM4s also give other accessories such as an AUX-in cable and a travel adapter which you can plug into an Airplane’s audio system as well. 

    The AirPods Max just comes with a charging cable that you can’t even connect with the iPhone to listen to music if the battery runs out. You will need to purchase a separate 3.5mm to USB-C cable or dongle to listen to music with the iPhone in case you run out of battery. 
    Winner: Sony WH-1000XM4
    6. Value and Affordability  © Youtube_Marc Taraz Steiner
    The AirPods Max retails in India for Rs 59,990 whereas the Sony WH-1000XM4 retail in India for Rs 24,990. The difference between the two is massive and if you look at which headphones offer more value for money, it has to be the Sony WH-1000XM4. They come with more accessories, are compatible with both iOS and Android devices and offers proper protection with a solid carrying case. If you're looking at sound quality for the price, the WH-1000XM4 wins on affordability.

    Winner: Sony WH-1000XM4
