WF-1000XM4 Replacement Ear Tips

Jalapeno22 — Tue, 22 Feb 2022 16:33:56 GMT

Good afternoon guys,

Just wondered if anyone knew how to obtain some replacement ear tips for the WF-1000XM4 headphones. Mine are starting to deteriorate from use. I follow the instructions regarding cleaning them and always keep my headphones in their charging case when not in use. I accept the face that the tips are delicate and won’t last forever. But I am having difficulty in tracking down anywhere that stock replacements. Any ideas when I can get some replacements. I mean official Sony ones, I know there are some 3rd party ones available online. Thanks for your help.

I know you’re asking about official Sony ones but I just want to recommend Sonicfoam earbud tips. Their large size is more like XL. I’m so happy with the passive noise cancellation and comfort these offer. They’re really cheap for 10 pairs. I won’t use any other tips now.

Thanks for the recommendation. For that price will likely give them a try. Can never have enough spares. Would have thought it would have been easier than it is to get some replacement tips. Ah well. How is the noise cancelling on them, as good as the stock tips ?

Hey Jalapeno22, if you're following the instructions you should contact Sony to send you new ones, I know someone who did the same and they sent him new pair

Hi Hannah, I did this and obtained some new ones as the headphones were still in warranty. Thank you

Just to clarify, these are the official SKUs for the replacement polyurethane noise isolation earbud foam tips for the WF-1000XM4:

EP-NI1000S EP-NI1000M EP-NI1000L

These cannot be found in any store where I live and it seems Sony is not offering them, which is weird. The WF-1000XM4 is extremely popular. The foam tips are extremely fragile. One scratch with the nail and they will crack. They are very hard to clean.

Here is what I could find regarding the cleaning of the earbuds in the manual:

A word of warning: All of the third-party foam buds I could find on the internet are not of the same material or quality as the original. I would advise against buying these. Rather demand that your local store stock up on these official buds from Sony.

Sony, please make these available to us or I will return my WF-1000XM4. No use having them if I can't use them.

Hi @Jimmooo,

I mean you can always contact Sony and they will provide you with the part number of the ear tips that you want based on the color and size. Then you can ask them where to buy it from.

Hope that helps.

FYI for those following this thread, I have raised another one here. I have been getting nonsense from Sony Support this week.

Comply offers awesome replacement tips, better than the originals in my estimation.

Yes i have a similar problem got hold of the help at sony they told me the number

i have looked round i cannot find any in the UK and absolutely ridiculously expensive

does anybody know where i can buy a set of large tips at a reasonable cost

i am going to get in contact with Sony again and put my views across

find it crazy after a year they slip out of my ears and dont hold any grip and have to pay £50 for one large ear piece so £100 for a pair of pence earbuds

i have tried other brands they only last a month before loosing grip and have to be replaced

the sony ones are the best at noise cancellation but not paying £100 for a set

Hi @KillingJoke1 You can find them available for purchase with a lower price here, as well as here, just make sure to contact them first, and they will be able to provide you with a local retailer where you can purchase it from. I hope this helps.

Dear friend, this is completely a matter of luck, one of my earrings fell into the water channel, it took me ten minutes to save it, but it works without the slightest problem.

Thanks but this is a dead link now - do you know if they are still available?

Hi @nigreav , I think they are currently out of stock at yourItdelivered, but you can also try and purchase them from online stores here, if no luck, you'll need to contact Sony support directly and they would be able to help here.
