Sony WF-1000XM4 firmware update, version 2.0.1

Sony WF-1000XM4 firmware update, version 2.0.1

Even though the WF-1000XM5 release coming soon, Sony is still updating the WF-1000XM4. A new firmware has been released, version 2.0.1.

The firmware fixes an issue with speak-to-chat, specifically:

  • Fixes an issue where music does not resume automatically when the Speak-to-Chat mode ends

I do not use speak-to-chat, so I have not encountered this issue, myself, but I am also still on firmware version 1.5.0.

The firmware update includes all past updates as well:

  • Allows you to simultaneously connect 2 devices to the headphones
  • Reduces the burden on the battery
  • Reduces the loss of battery capacity due to long-term use
  • Improves the stability of music playback
  • Improves call voice quality
  • Improves general performance
  • Improves the stability of Bluetooth connection and music playback
  • Enhances other functions to improve general performance
  • Improves Bluetooth connection stability
  • Fixes an issue where the Noise Canceling function or Ambient Sound Mode is momentarily interrupted
  • Improves other functions 

It is great to see Sony still updating the WF-1000XM4, shame that it will not get the LE Audio update, but that was expected. So if you do not want to wait for the WF-1000XM5 and want to grab a cheaper WF-1000XM4, there are some discounts on Amazon right now.

  1. Well i learned one thing in my life, do not update when is coming a new model, There's a possibility that new firmware will downgrade old device, so that later it seemed that the new model is better than the old one...
