Sony WH-1000XM5 Active Noise-Canceling Wireless Headphones

When you’re looking for the absolute best in terms of Bluetooth or noise-cancelling headphones, look no further than the Sony WH-1000XM5. This awesome headphone is packed with all the latest audio and lifestyle-enhancing features you could need in a pair of Bluetooth over-ears.

The Ultimate Noise Cancellation Headphone

The Sony WH-1000XM5 offer superior noise-cancelling capabilities with the help of the newly-developed integrated Processor V1 and QN1 HD Noise Cancelling Processor. 8 microphones, four on each earcup, precisely capture ambient sounds resulting in a significant reduction of noise. The noise-cancelling performance is constantly optimised by the Auto NC Optimiser, which takes into account the atmospheric pressure and wearing conditions.

Listen to the Best

Sony's 30mm driver unit with a soft edge is designed to give you a clear listening experience without any background noise. The use of carbon fibre composite material in constructing the lightweight and highly rigid dome of the unit enhances sound clarity, especially in high-frequency sounds. This specific driver unit is created to increase high-frequency sensitivity, resulting in more realistic sound quality.

Designed with the Best

Sony utilises various technologies, such as a premium lead-free solder with gold for excellent conductivity, a Fine Sound Resistor for uniform power distribution and optimised circuitry for a better signal-to-noise ratio to provide a clear and consistent audio performance.

Hi-Res Audio Wherever You Go

Experience high-resolution audio even wirelessly with LDAC, a widely recognised audio coding technology. LDAC transfers about three times more data than standard Bluetooth audio codecs, which results in exceptional high-resolution audio quality.

AI For Even Better Audio Performance

DSEE Extreme is an Edge-AI (Artificial Intelligence) technology that can upscale compressed digital music files in real time. It restores high-range sound lost in compression by using advanced algorithms to recognise musical genres, instruments and individual elements of each song.

Pick-ups Only What You Want

The WH-1000XM5 use Precise Voice Pickup Technology, which includes four beamforming microphones and an AI noise reduction algorithm, to isolate and enhance your voice. A new wind noise reduction structure also helps to reduce wind noise during calls. This technology ensures that you can hear and be heard clearly in any environment.

Be Heard Clearly

Thanks to an improved signal-to-noise ratio, the four microphones are calibrated to pick up your voice with high accuracy, even in noisy surroundings. The noise reduction algorithm, which was developed using AI machine learning and over 500 million voice samples, is effective in a wide range of settings and will suppress ambient noise to provide clear voice output during calls.

Adapts to Your Surrounding

Adaptive Sound Control modifies ambient sound settings according to your location and activities. It also analyses your routine and identifies your frequently visited places to adjust the music accordingly.

Smart Sensors That Understand You

Speak-to-Chat instantly pauses your music when you start talking so that you can communicate hands-free while wearing your headphones. It utilises the Sony WH-1000XM5's built-in microphones and advanced audio signal processing to recognise and react to your voice and resumes the music automatically once you're done talking. When you remove the headphones, they automatically stop playing music, thanks to a capacitive sensor that recognises when they're not being worn.

2-Device Pairing, 30-Hour Battery Life

Connect to two devices at the same time with the Sony WH-1000XM5. It recognises which device is ringing when you receive a call and connects automatically. You can also switch between the two devices by pressing a button. With a battery life of 30 hours, it's perfect for long journeys. If you need a quick charge, you can charge it for three hours in only three minutes with a USB-PD-compliant AC adapter.

Blazing Fast Pairing

Fast Pair allows you to easily connect your WH-1000XM5 to your Android devices while Swift Pair lets you connect them to your Windows 10 or Windows 11 computer with just one tap. You can also quickly locate your headphones by calling them or checking their last known location on your smartphone.

Built to Be Snug

The WH-1000XM5 are designed with a lightweight and comfortable soft-fit leather material that blocks out external noise while fitting snugly around the head to reduce ear pressure. The headphones' stepless slider, seamless swivel, and headband offer a pleasant noiseless experience while wearing them.

Protects Your Hearing

You can determine if you're listening to music at safe sound pressure levels based on data recorded by the Sony WH-1000XM5, in accordance with the World Health Organization's recommendations with the Sony | Headphones Connect App.

Seamless Controls

Customise your headphones with Quick Access to quickly resume your Spotify music with just a few taps without touching your phone. Voice assistants like ‘Google’ or ‘Alexa’ offer hands-free assistance with tasks such as listening to music, receiving notifications, and setting reminders. The WH-1000XM5 also features intuitive touch controls to switch between noise cancelling and ambient sound, play or pause music, skip tracks and adjust the volume.
