Description
The best noise cancelling
The WF-1000xM5 headphones reduce ambient noise over a wide range, from low to high frequencies. They feature two proprietary processors that suppress more ambient noise than ever before, a new Dynamic Driver X high-performance driver unit, two feedback microphones and innovative noise-insulating ear plugs for a more stable fit. Real-time noise cancelling can be optimized for best performance in your environment, so you'll hear a big difference, especially in the airplane, train or bus.
Multi noise sensor technology
Three microphones on each headphone, including two feedback microphones, improve the suppression of low frequencies. This is our greatest step forward to noise cancelling and results in an even more accurate detection of ambient noise. With that you can enjoy one of our purest sounds.
Unbeatable noise cancelling
Designed exclusively by Sony, the integrated V1 processor lets you fully realize the full potential of our QN2e HD noise cancelling processor. The unique combination of different technologies controls six microphones on both ears and achieves a previously unprecedented noise-cancelling quality that can be adapted to your environment.
New high-quality driver unit for high sound quality and noise cancelling
The improved Dynamic Driver X driver unit, specially developed for low frequency playback, consists of the membrane structure and the membrane edge of different materials and are separated in order to enable a more precise generation of counterwaves in the lower frequency range.
Stable sitting ear plugs
The noise insulating ear plugs are made of a unique polyurethane foam which reduces high-frequency noise. The soft and elastic ear plugs maximize the contact area between ear plug and ear canal, insulate the sound and reduce noise. It also improves the adhesion in the ear canal, which results in a safe and stable hold.
Astonishing sound quality
The special Dynamic Driver X driver unit provides for a broad frequency reproduction, which enables deeper basses, fine voices and higher details, especially with tweeter instruments. The outstanding power over the entire frequency range provides for a uniform and natural sound, no matter how WAS you hear.
Enjoy richer, more detailed vocals
You can experience richer voices and even finer details thanks to the special Dynamic Driver X driver unit for a broad frequency reproduction. The diaphragm structure and the diaphragm edge are made from various materials, while WAS results in low distortions and a clear sound.
Constructed for less distortion
Combining our QN2e HD Noise Cancelling processor and the integrated V2 processor, the WF-1000xM5 headphones have precise 24-bit audio processing and powerful analogue amplification. The result is low distortion and crystal-clear sound playback.
Enjoy high-resolution audio
With LDAC™, our industry-standard audio encoding technology, the WF-1000xM5 headphones support high-resolution audio wireless. LDAC™ delivers approximately three times more data than traditional Bluetooth® audio for exceptional high-resolution audio that is closer to studio recording than ever before.
KI-technology for precise sound
Using Edge-AI (Artificial Intelligence), DSEE Extreme™ scales compressed digital music files, including those from popular streaming services, in real time. It dynamically recognizes the instrumentation, music style and the individual elements and reproduces the treble range lost through compression HER. A = Advanced audio dynamics (string instruments and particularly low-noise sounds) B = High frequency restoration (live character of instruments and voices).
Head tracking function
The Head Tracking provides for a realistic and captivating hearing pleasure by automatically adjusting the sound fields to your head movement. The sound is tuned exactly to the screen of your smartphone, even when you move to provide a captivating experience when connected to compatible smartphones and services.
Certified headphones – individual experience
With Sony's 360-reality audio-certified headphones and the Sony Sound Connect APP, you can optimize the experience and immerse yourself in captivating sounds by analyzing your ear shape. An elaborate personal optimization algorithm ensures an even greater feeling of sound space, distance and height, whereby you can immerse more in the music.
360 Spatial Sound Personalizer
With the Sony 360 Spatial Sound Personalizer APP you enjoy a sound experience that is optimally tailored to you. The APP determines and analyzes your ear shape so that when paired with a BRAVIA XR TV, the headphones create your personal spatial sound field. The firmware update has been available since January 2022 and is required to enjoy 360 Spatial Sound via BRAVIA XR™. The firmware update for BRAVIA XR™ requires a network connection.
The best call quality ever from Sony
Thanks to an AI-based noise suppression algorithm via a Deep Neutral Network (DNN) as well as bone line sensors, your voice is played back clearly and naturally even in a loud environment. Outdoor, noise-suppressing construction minimizes wind noise so you can always be heard.
Detects voice vibrations to improve clarity
The bone conduction sensors absorb the vibrations of your voice directly from the skull bones and help isolate your speech from ambient and background noise - for clear conversations even in loud environments.
Hide the outside world for a clear call quality
The precise voice pickup technology and the advanced audio signal processing transmit your voice clearly, even in loud environments. The noise reduction algorithm was developed with machine learning using over 500 million voice patterns to suppress ambient noise - for higher precision and clearly understandable voices in different environments.
Always listen and be heard
A design for reducing wind noise and a mesh mesh in the microphone minimizes the noise during speaking so that you can be heard clearly even in the wind.
Small and elegant
These headphones sit comfortably in the ears thanks to an improved glossy surface, offer a more luxurious feel and at the same time keep away the ambient noise. By reducing the size of the headphone housing and optimizing the placement of the components, the headphones are now around 25% smaller and 20% lighter than the WF-1000XM4. In addition, we have reduced the charging case so it fits even better in your pocket.
Pleasant and safe
The WF-1000xM5 headphones fit perfectly with their ear-fitting, ergonomic shape. In developing the WF-1000XM5, we have used extensive data on ear shapes that we have collected since the first in-EAR headphones in 1982. Our continuous evaluation of different ear forms and sensitivities has helped us to develop an ideal headphone shape that can be worn safely and comfortably by almost all people.
Comfortable fit and better sound insulation
The new noise-insulating ear plugs are made from an exclusive material that improves fit and increases comfort as the pressure in the ear is reduced by the redesigned shape. Earbuds are available in four sizes.
Smooth switching
With the multi-point connection you can quickly switch to a ringing device and then switch back again by simply continuing the playback on the other device.
A clear, stable Bluetooth signal
These headphones have a new, powerful integrated V2 processor, which transmits a Bluetooth signal to and from both ears simultaneously, so that you can enjoy a stable sound. These headphones are compatible with LE audio (beta version), a next-generation Bluetooth audio with ultra-low latency, which is suitable for Ideal gaming. A) Conventional forwarding BT transmission L to RB) WF-1000xM5: Simultaneous BT transmission to L and R.
Adaptable to the world around you
Adaptive Sound Control detects where you are and WAS is doing, and then uses AI to change the ambient sound mode settings to ensure the best listening experience. Over time, the system learns your behavior, recognizes places where you are, and adjusts the sound to your location.
A new sound experience for AR gaming
Are you looking for entertainment that can do more than music and videos? The sensors and spatial sound technology of the WF-1000xM5 headphones deliver captivating sound for AR games such as Ingress by Niantic. When playing Ingress with the WF-1000xM5, sensor and surround sound technologies provide a new experience: Head Tracking brings the sound from different directions to perfectly match the action on the screen.
Seamless music and audio notifications
Auto Play plays music and messages only when needed. Music starts for easy relaxation when you want it, for example when you put the headphones on or go for a walk. Audio notifications remind you of all important appointments. Your mobile phone remains safely in the case. You can use Spotify, Endel and Music-Apps to play your favorite music and relaxing soundscapes. The Auto Play APP is currently in beta. Functions and controls can be modified or improved.
Only hear ambient noise while talking
You can set Speak to Chat to stop music as soon as you talk to someone. So you hear only ambient noises and can talk comfortably. This is especially useful if you do not want to remove the headphones or have no hands free. As soon as you have finished your conversation, the music continues automatically.
Pause immediately. Play it back immediately.
1. As soon as you remove the headphones from your ears, the music stops - an proximity sensor detects whether you are wearing both or only one headphone. 2. When the headphones are back in the ear, the music continues to play.
Quick access to your favorite music and sounds
Quick Access allows you to set up wireless headphones so that Spotify music or Endel sounds are replayed after tapping twice or three times, without having to remove the phone.
Control headphones with headgestures
You can operate your headphones with natural head movements, such as accept and reject calls or use Auto Play by pitching or shaking the head.
Control with your fingertips
Tap the left headset to switch from noise cancelling to ambient sound mode. With a long tap you can switch to Quick Attention mode. Tap the right headphone twice to jump to the next track. You can even increase or decrease the volume by tapping on the headphones at least four times in a row. With the free Sound Connect APP you can simply assign the desired functions to each headphone.
Optimal comfort, perfect adjustment
With the Sound Connect APP the WF-1000xM5 is even better. Using the simple, intuitive interface you can make your ideal sound and short command settings and call up the last heard tracks. With safe hearing loss, you can check your hearing habits according to WHO recommendations.
