Sony introduces the new WF-1000XM5 headphones with better noise cancellation.
Sony Electronics Inc. announced the WF-1000XM5 headphones. The latest model of the award-winning 1000X series offers the best noise cancellation, reducing ambient noise from low to high frequencies so you can focus on your music. The WF-1000XM5 raises the industry standard with stunning sound and superior call quality from Sony, in a smaller size and weight. Innovations include real-time sound processors and high performance microphones that amplify the speaker, Dynamic Driver X for wider frequency reproduction, deeper bass and more detailed vocals.
Best Noise Reduction
The WF-1000XM5 now includes three microphones in each earcup, including dual feedback microphones that improve low-frequency rejection. Sony’s newly developed V2 embedded processor unleashes the potential of the QN2e HD noise reduction processor. A unique combination of technologies drives all six microphones in both ears, delivering unparalleled noise cancellation that automatically adapts to work best in your environment.
Designed by experts for amazing sound quality
With the specially designed Dynamic Driver X, the WF-1000XM5 lets you enjoy richer and more detailed vocals. The diaphragm structure combines several different materials for the dome and rim, resulting in low distortion and excellent sound quality.
Combining Sony’s newly developed QN2e noise reduction processor and V2 integrated processor, the WF-1000XM5 headphones feature 24-bit audio processing and high-performance analog amplification. The result is low distortion and extremely pure sound reproduction.
The WF-1000XM5 supports high-definition wireless audio with LDAC, an industry-accepted audio coding technology. LDAC transmits approximately three times more data than Bluetooth audio, delivering exceptional high-resolution sound quality that’s closer than ever to a studio recording.
With Edge-AI, DSEE Extreme improves the quality of compressed digital music files in real time, including from the most popular streaming services. It dynamically recognizes the instrumentation, musical genre and individual elements of each song and restores the audio frequencies lost during compression.
Head tracking provides a real and engaging listening experience by automatically adjusting acoustic changes to compensate for head movement. Sounds match your smartphone’s screen exactly, even as you move, for a fully immersive visual experience when connected to a compatible smartphone/service.
The best call quality from Sony
Silence the outside world with Precise Voice Pickup and advanced audio processing. The person on the other end of the line will hear your voice clearly even in noisy environments. The noise reduction algorithm of the WF-1000XM5 was developed with artificial intelligence (AI) machine learning using over 500 million voice samples to suppress ambient noise, improve accuracy and extract your voice clearly in various environments.
Stylish and comfortable design
The WF-1000XM5 features improved glossy texture and smoother appearance, fits comfortably in your ears and isolates external sounds. After reducing the size of the earcups and optimizing component placement, they are about 25% smaller and 20% lighter than the WF-1000XM4. The size of the charging case has also been reduced to make it easier to carry in your pocket.
The noise-isolating earbuds are made of a unique polyurethane foam that reduces noise in the high frequency range. Soft and flexible, they maximize the contact area between the hearing aid tip and the ear canal, isolating sound and reducing noise. They also improve the grip in the ear canal for a more secure and stable fit.
Optimal listening experience
The WF-1000XM5 has an Auto Play feature that delivers music and sound notifications when you need them. Music plays at your chosen time when you put on your headphones or start a relaxing walk, effortlessly lifting your spirits. Sound notifications remind you of all important events, so you don’t have to take your phone out of your pocket. Connect to Spotify, Endel and Apple Music and get your favorite music and relaxing settings.4 Like the W-1000XM5, the W-1000XM5 now also supports auto play.

The WF-1000XM5 also supports popular Sony features such as Adaptive Sound Control and Speak-to-Chat, as well as multipoint connectivity, allowing you to connect multiple Bluetooth devices at the same time. The built-in V2 processor transmits the Bluetooth signal to and from both ears at the same time so that you can enjoy stable sound. In addition, with one touch, the WF-1000XM5 provides quick and easy Bluetooth pairing with your Android devices.
