Experience flagship noise cancelling with the Sony WH-1000XM5 Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones – Sony’s most advanced over-ear headphones yet. Designed for everyday commuting, office work, flights and deep-focus sessions, the WH-1000XM5 uses multiple microphones, powerful processors and smart software to dramatically reduce ambient noise across low, mid and high frequencies.
Dual processors (Integrated Processor V1 and HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN1) work together to control eight microphones and continuously adapt to your surroundings. Whether you’re on a plane, in a café or walking through the city, Auto NC Optimizer fine-tunes the noise cancelling based on your fit, movement and even air pressure, so you always get the best isolation.
Inside each earcup, a specially designed 30 mm driver with a lightweight, rigid carbon fibre dome delivers clear, detailed sound with tight bass and smooth treble. With support for High-Resolution Audio Wireless via LDAC and Sony’s DSEE Extreme upscaling, your music sounds richer and more lifelike – even from compressed streaming services.
The WH-1000XM5 is also built for crystal-clear calls. Four beamforming microphones and AI-powered noise reduction isolate your voice and suppress background sounds, while a wind-noise reduction structure keeps conversations clear outdoors.
Finished in soft, “soft fit” leather with a lightweight, noiseless design, these headphones stay comfortable all day. Smart features like Adaptive Sound Control, Speak-to-Chat, wear detection, multipoint Bluetooth pairing and support for voice assistants (Google Assistant / Alexa) make them ideal for modern, connected life. With up to 30 hours of battery life and quick charging, the Sony WH-1000XM5 is a premium choice for anyone who wants best-in-class ANC, sound quality and comfort in one sleek package.
