Sony WH-1000XM5 Noise Canceling Wireless Over-Ear Headphones

The specially designed 30mm driver unit featuring a soft edge enhances noise cancelling, especially in low-frequency ranges, helping you enjoy your music precisely without ambient noise. The carbon fibre composite material realizes lightweight and high rigidity dome and improves sound clarity, especially in high-frequency ranges.

With four microphones on each earcup, this is our biggest-ever step forward in noise cancelling. Ambient sound is captured even more accurately for a dramatic reduction in high-frequency noise. Thanks to Auto NC Optimizer, noise cancelling performance is always and automatically optimised based on wearing conditions and external environmental factors such as atmospheric pressure.

With Precise Voice Pickup Technology and advanced audio signal processing, the person on the other end of the call will hear your voice clearly, even when you are in noisy situations. Our noise reduction algorithm was developed with AI machine learning using more than 500 million voice samples to suppress ambient noise and extract your voice clearly in a wide range of environments. [1 = With noise 2 = Without noise]

As soon as you start a conversation, Speak-to-Chat automatically stops your music and lets in ambient sound – handy if you want to keep your headphones on or talk hands-free. This smart feature uses microphones built into your headphones and advanced audio signal processing to recognise and react to your voice. Once your chat is over, your music starts playing again automatically.
