Our Verdict
Sony WH-1000XM4 Wireless
Beats Studio Pro Wireless
The Sony WH-1000XM4 Wireless are better than the Beats Studio Pro Wireless for most purposes. The Sony's ANC feature blocks out more noise across the entire range. They're more comfortable for most, have a longer battery life, and offer more robust sound customization features. However, the Beats support audio via USB-C, which lets you stream high-fidelity audio and use the headphones while charging.
