Our Verdict
Sony WF-1000XM4 Truly Wireless
Beats Fit Pro True Wireless
The Sony WF-1000XM4 Truly Wireless are better in-ears than the Beats Fit Pro True Wireless. The Sony are better-built and have a better noise isolation performance. They also have a significantly better battery performance, and their companion app offers a graphic EQ and presets to help you adjust their sound to your liking. However, the Beats have an H1 chip for seamless pairing with your Apple devices, and they support Spatial Audio on iOS devices.
