Sony’s award-winning WH-1000X series headphones are highly renowned for supreme noise cancellation, sound quality, and comfort. Now say hello to the WH-1000XM5. Upgraded for an even finer listening experience they feature four mics on each ear-cup for premium levels of distraction-busting noise cancellation, unique Sony sound architecture, plus High Resolution Audio, Adaptive Sound Control, and up to thirty hours of battery power… yes, with noise cancellation on. However you listen, the WH-1000XM5 sound supreme.

Supreme Sony sound
Sony’s unique technologies, including a premium lead-free solder containing gold for excellent conductivity, a Fine Sound Resistor for even power distribution, and optimised circuitry for an improved signal-to-noise ratio ensure clear, consistent sound. High-Resolution Audio and High-Resolution Audio Wireless are supported, thanks to LDAC, transmitting approximately three times more data than conventional Bluetooth audio for exceptional sound quality, without the wires. Plus, Adaptive Sound Control automatically senses your environment and your activity, adjusting settings to optimise your listening.

    Wife has xm4 . I bought the xm5 . Luckily bought on Amazon and sent xm5 back . 4’s sound better to me and the AI ANC didn’t do anything for me either. Plus the case is huge for the 5’s .

    How are these for TV use? With latest LG TV 2022 series

    7-8 years ago I tried some expensive wireless hps, they would not sync correctly to movies, tv series at all so back they went.

    My xm3 work fine with my lgc2, and these are newer, so I wouldn't expect problems

    Yes the sound better no doubt. Larger diameter drivers on the XM4s.

    I just got a pair of Xm4's free from Amazon. 2022 has been a good year for free stuff from Amazon:

    2x free LG Gram 16" laptops - price was incorrectly £0 for an hour or so but they honoured. Got the laptops on release day.

    1x free Sony XM4 - lost my original order, but then it turned up 6 months later at the Amazon locker. Amazon CS insist I keep it at no cost.

    That's over £3k worth of stuff

    I’m waiting for a good deal on these as I hear the call quality is much better than the earlier models. Does anyone have these who can comment?

    It's stupid how long it took but since I use headphones all the time xm5s were an important purchase, when I had the xm3s I had to switch to my earbuds cuz the sound quality of the xm3s were disgusting

    I used to own XM3s and I bought these on release. I used to call a lot with my XM3s and now XM5s, nobody ever complaint about the sound quality of the microphone to me. So I believe even XM3s was good enough. Personally, I prefer the comfort of new XM5s. Small improvement on sound quality too. I also upgraded to far better siund quality with Tidal over crappy Spotify. If you decide to buy these premium headphones, go also for the premium streaming service.
