Sony | WF-1000XM5B Wireless Earphones - Black

The Best Noise Cancelling*

The WF-1000XM5 feature cutting-edge technology to deliver premium sound quality and the best noise cancelling performance on the market, reducing external noise over a wide bandwidth, from low to high frequencies. They contain two proprietary processors that cancel more external noise than ever, a new high-performance driver unit, dual feedback microphones, and innovative Noise Isolation Earbud Tips for a more stable fit. Real-time noise cancelling processing can be optimised to provide the best performance for your environment, so you get a personalised, optimised experience wherever you listen.

These noise cancelling earbuds utilise Multi Noise Sensor technology. Three microphones on each earbud, including dual feedback mics, improve low-frequency cancellation performance. This is Sony’s biggest ever step forward in noise cancelling, resulting in ambient sound captured even more accurately.

Astonishing sound quality 

Thanks to our new Dynamic Driver X, a specially designed driver unit for wide frequency reproduction, you will experience richer vocals and enhanced fine detail. The diaphragm structure combines several different materials for the dome and the edge of the ear buds, achieving low distortion and clear sound quality. 

Designed for less distortion, we've combined our HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN2e and Integrated Processor V2, to incorporate precision 24-bit audio processing and high-performance analogue amplification. The result is low distortion and crystal-clear audio reproduction.  

The WF-1000XM5 support Hi-Resolution Audio and Hi-Resolution Audio Wireless, thanks to LDAC, our industry-adopted audio coding technology.

With these earphones, you can also enjoy precision upscaling. Using Edge-AI (Artificial Intelligence), DSEE Extreme upscales compressed digital music files in real-time, including those from popular streaming services. 

These Sony headphones are also 360 Reality Audio Certified – optimise your experience by analysing your individual ear shape on the Sony | Headphones Connect app and enjoy the ultimate immersive music experience.

Sony’s best-ever call quality**

Thanks to an AI-based noise reduction algorithm based on Deep Neural Network (DNN) processing, and bone conduction sensors, your voice will come through clear and natural, even in a noisy environment. And if you’re outdoors, the wind noise reduction structure will minimise any wind whooshes, so you always know you’ll be heard.

Bone conduction sensors pick up the vibration of your voice directly from your skull bones, helping to isolate your speech from ambient sounds and background noise. As well as this, the Precise Voice Pickup Technology and advanced audio signal processing in these Sony wireless headphones will ensure that the person on the other end of the call hears your voice clearly, even in loud surroundings.

Small and beautifully designed

With an improved, glossy texture and a more luxurious feel, the WF-1000XM5 fit comfortably in your ears while keeping out external sounds. 

The earbuds embody a shape that perfectly matches the human ear with an ergonomic design for a more stable fit. We’ve designed them utilising extensive ear-shape data collated since introducing the world’s first in-ear headphones in 1982. These earbuds also provide a comfortable fit and better sound insulation. 

New Noise Isolation Earbud Tips are made from an exclusive material that improves fitting and increases comfort, thanks to reduced pressure in the ear due to a newly designed shape. The earbuds come in four sizes, including SS.
