In our rave review, Kevin Lee declared the Sony WH-1000XM5 "hands down the best-sounding and most impressive noise-canceling headphones around." While premium-priced, the audio quality justifies the cost.
Building on the already excellent Sony XM4, the XM5 boasts superior noise cancellation and comfort. A second processor and doubled microphone count dramatically improve noise reduction. Redesigned earcups provide a tighter seal, enhancing passive noise isolation. The noise cancellation surpasses the XM4 and most competitors in its price bracket.
The XM5 also features a sleeker design with a wider headband for better weight distribution and luxurious synthetic leather earcup padding for increased comfort during extended use. However, unlike its predecessor, the XM5 doesn't fold inward, only swivels, making it slightly less compact.
Battery life remains exceptional, exceeding 30 hours on a single charge with ANC enabled, and USB Type-C fast charging is supported.
At this price, the XM5 significantly undercuts competitors like the Bose QuietComfort Ultra and AirPods Max. This is a must-have deal for anyone seeking premium noise-canceling headphones.
