Noise cancelling
From the sounds of aircraft to the voices of people, our WH-1000xM5 wireless headphones with multi-microphone noise cancelling screen even more high and medium frequency noise than ever before. Thanks to the automatic NC optimization the noise minimization is automatically optimized depending upon the fit and the environment.
Multi noise sensor technology
Thanks to the four microphones in each ear cup these headphones are a huge advance in terms of noise minimization. Ambient noise is recorded with more precision in order to reduce high-frequency noise even more strongly. Thanks to the automatic NC optimization, the noise minimization is always and automatically optimized depending on the fit and environmental factors such as air pressure.
Unbeatable noise reduction
With the built-in V1 processor, you can take advantage of the full potential of our QN1 HD processor for noise cancelling. With this combination of various technologies, 8 microphones are controlled to offer the best noise-cancelling quality.
Specially developed 30 mm driver unit
Better noise-cancelling thanks to the specially designed 30 mm driver unit with soft edges. So you can enjoy your music without the disturbing surrounding noises. The carbon fibers form a light and resistant calotte and improve the sound quality, especially in high-frequency ranges.
Excellent sound, perfect design
The specially developed 30 mm driver unit with a light and resistant carbon fiber dome improves high-frequency sensitivity. The sound quality is therefore more natural. The unique technologies of Sony include a high-quality lead-free solder with gold content for excellent conductivity, fine sound resistor for a uniform distribution of the power and an optimized circuit for an improved signal-to-noise ratio to ensure a clear, rich sound.
Enjoy high-resolution audio via cable and wireless
With LDAC, our industry-acquired audio encoding technology, WH-1000xM5 supports high-resolution audio and high-resolution audio wireless. LDAC delivers approximately three times more data than traditional Bluetooth® wireless audio, so you can enjoy high-resolution audio.
Restore all compressed files in real time
With Edge-AI (artificial intelligence), DSEE Extreme™ optimizes compressed music files in real time. Dynamic detection of instrumentation, music style and other characteristics of each song restores high frequencies lost during compression.
Industry-leading call quality
Our precise voice pickup technology uses four beamforming microphones and an AI-based noise reduction algorithm to precisely isolate your voice. A newly developed structure for reducing wind noise minimizes wind noise during conversations. No matter where you are, you hear clearly.
Several microphones that are aligned to your voice
These headphones have four beamforming microphones and are calibrated to record your voice only. The signal-to-noise ratio has been improved, so the headphones can capture every single word, even in high ambient noise.
Crystal-clear calls without noise
The precise voice pickup technology and the advanced audio signal processing transmit your voice clearly and sharply to the person at the other end of the line, even in loud environments. Our noise suppression algorithm was developed using artificial intelligence and machine learning from 500 million voice patterns. So surrounding noise can be suppressed and your voice can be clearly filtered out even in different environments.
Comfortable to wear for the whole day thanks to noiseless design
The material lies close to the head, exerts very low pressure and hides ambient noises. The low-noise design with infinitely variable slide control, seamless swivel and hanger are reasons for the wearing comfort of the WH-1000xM5.
The Adaptive Sound Control adapts automatically to your activity
The Adaptive Sound Control detects where you are and WAS you do, and adjusts the ambient noise settings accordingly for an ideal listening pleasure. When this feature is enabled, it learns your behavior and recognizes places where you are, such as your work station or home café, and adjusts the sound to suit your environment.
Daily operation with Speak to Chat
The intelligent Speak to Chat stops the music automatically and switches to surrounding noise as soon as you talk to someone. This allows you to talk with headphones on the phone, such as when you have no hands free. Intelligent technology uses built-in microphones in your headphones and advanced audio signal processing to recognize and respond to your voice. After the conversation, the music continues automatically.
Pause immediately. Play Immediately.
Remove the headphones and the music starts playing. A sensor detects when you are wearing the headphones. This also optimizes the detection precision and the design. When you put the headphones on again, music continues.
Quick access to your favorite music
Quick access allows you to set up your headphones to start Spotify playback on just two or three touch, without having to remove it from your smartphone.
Voice control
Activate your preferred voice control hands-free with "OK Google" or "Alexa". So you can listen to music, contact friends, retrieve information, set reminders and much more. You can even control headset features such as noise cancelling via voice commands, interact with e-mail in Outlook via Google Assistant or Siri, or participate in Microsoft teams meetings.
Comfortable and completely adjustable
With the Sound Connect APP, the WH-1000xM5 are 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 the safe hearing feature, you can check your hearing habits according to WHO recommendations.
Multipoint connection
For maximum comfort, the Bluetooth® headphones can be paired simultaneously with two Bluetooth® devices. The headphones recognize the device and automatically select it when there is an incoming call. Besides this, you can quickly switch over the headphones to one of the two devices by pressing a button.
Find your headphones by Fast Pair
The WH-1000xM5 supports the useful fast-pair function of Google. This feature allows you to quickly locate the headphones you're wearing: Either via the audible signal or the last known location in the Google APP smartphone, Find My Device.
