Our Verdict

Drop + THX Panda Wireless

Sony WH-1000XM4 Wireless

The Sony WH-1000XM4 Wireless are more versatile headphones than the Drop + THX Panda Wireless. The Sony are more comfortable, are better built, and have a more bass-heavy sound profile, which some users may prefer. They also have a companion app and an active noise cancelling system that can block out a significant amount of noise, and their continuous battery life is longer. However, the Drop have a planar magnetic transducer, which some users may prefer.
