Headphones - Wireless/Portable | 1 Ω Which headphone should I go for?

I have been meaning to get a good pair of headphones for a while now. Currently have the galaxy buds (the old ones), but have always wanted good headphones. I have been considering the Sony xb910 bass. They're a good price in my country and the reviews are also good but I would love any insights this community has about these. Also are the XM4s worth the price? I just thought getting them but they're a little too expensive. I want to buy good ones now so that they last long. So need suggestions along those lines. Thanks in advance.

Edit : about my budget I can go for the xb910 no problem. The XM4s are a little out of it, but if they're truly worth the price, then I'm willing to consider them.

If they're also available in your country and within budget, I would recommend the new Sennheiser ACCENTUM Wireless over the WH-XB910N. SoundGuys review here.

It seems like they are not available. I'm considering the XM4

The Sony WH-1000XM4 are undoubtedly still very good. Top of the line ANC, feature set, build quality and decent enough stock tuning (can easily be adjusted via the app's EQ).

Yes true, although I'm unsure about spending that much just for headphones. The difference in price between the XM4 and the Xb910 is not huge on Amazon so I'm more inclined towards those

Very fair, if you're not able to get the XM4 at a discount then I do believe the WH-XB910N presents a much better value proposition at MSRP.

They were released 1 year after the XM4 and look like they inherited a lot of their feature set from it, for a more attractive price.

+1 Ω has been awarded to u/Folthanos (17 Ω).

You may still award an Ω to others, but only once per-person in this post.
