Our take on the Sony WF-1000XM5 Industry Leading Noise Canceling Truly Wireless Earbuds

The WF-1000XM5 is Sony's flagship true wireless earbud, built around a new driver and the Integrated Processor V2 for stronger noise canceling and clearer sound than the WF-1000XM4. It adds a bone conduction sensor and AI noise reduction for calls, plus adaptive sound control and Speak-to-Chat. It suits commuters and frequent flyers who want top-tier ANC in a small, light bud. Against the AirPods Pro and Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds, it matches or beats them on noise canceling and battery, though some owners find the touch controls fiddly and the foam tips wear out.

About the Sony WF-1000XM5 Industry Leading Noise Canceling Truly Wireless Earbuds

The Sony WF-1000XM5 are truly wireless noise-canceling earbuds. A Dynamic Driver X unit handles wide frequency reproduction. Two processors, the Integrated Processor V2 and the HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN2e, control six microphones across both ears for noise cancelling. The earbuds also support High-Resolution Audio and 24-bit audio processing with high-performance analog amplification.

For calls, Precise Voice Pickup Technology, an AI-based noise reduction algorithm and a bone conduction sensor pick up your voice. A wind noise reduction structure and a mesh wrap on the microphone reduce noise in windy conditions. Adaptive Sound Control uses AI to adjust ambient sound settings to your location and activity. Speak-to-Chat pauses the music when you start talking.

The earbuds have an ergonomic shape designed for a stable fit. They are rated IPX4, so they resist splashes and sweat. They can be paired with two Bluetooth devices at once. The packaging uses no plastic, except for coatings and adhesives, and the earbuds are made with recycled plastic.
