In our detailed review of the Sony WH-1000XM5, Kevin Lee praised them, stating, "The Sony WH-1000XM5 delivers unparalleled sound quality and the most effective noise cancellation available. While they come at a premium price, the investment in audio excellence is justified with these headphones."
While the previous model, the Sony XM4, was already exceptional, the XM5 introduces significant enhancements in noise cancellation and comfort. It now boasts a second processor and double the microphones focused on eliminating ambient noise. The redesigned earcups provide a snug fit, improving passive noise isolation and making the noise cancellation superior to that of the XM4 and most competitors within its price range.
The Sony WH-1000XM5 also features a sleeker design with a new headband adjustment mechanism. The wider band helps distribute weight more evenly, and the earcup padding, now made from a softer synthetic leather, enhances comfort for extended wear. However, one minor downside is that the XM5 cannot be folded inward, only swiveled, which makes it less compact for travel.
Despite these upgrades, the XM5 maintains the impressive battery life of the XM4, offering over 30 hours of use on a single charge with ANC on. Additionally, it supports fast charging via USB Type-C.
At this price point, the XM5 is significantly more affordable than its rivals, the Bose QuietComfort Ultra and AirPods Max. If you're in the market for premium noise-cancelling headphones, this deal is not to be missed.
