Product overview
True Wireless Sony WF-1000XM5 earbuds: top-tier active noise cancellation and exceptionally rich sound, so you can shut out the world and listen without distraction. Noise cancelling: two high-performance processors and two feedback microphones reduce outside noise across a wide frequency range — a real difference on planes, trains and buses. Sound: the Dynamic Driver X diaphragm reproduces deep bass, subtle vocals and fine detail for natural sound across the whole frequency range. Calls: a bone-conduction sensor and AI-based noise reduction isolate your voice, even in noisy or windy surroundings. Also: earbuds around 25% smaller and 20% lighter than the previous model, noise-isolating ear tips for a stable fit, touch controls, water-resistant, Sound Connect app to personalise your listening.

Frequently asked questions about this product
What makes the noise cancellation on the WF-1000XM5 so effective?
A combination: two dedicated processors, two feedback microphones and noise-isolating ear tips that give a stable fit. Noise reduction covers a wide frequency range, from low to high frequencies — the difference is felt most on a plane, train or bus.
Does the noise cancellation adapt to the environment?
Yes: noise-cancelling processing works in real time and optimises itself for the environment you are in. A shared office, a metro and a street do not have the same sound profile, so the setting cannot stay fixed.
How good is the Dynamic Driver X diaphragm?
It was designed specifically for earbuds and covers a wide frequency range: deeper bass, more subtle vocals and finer detail, particularly on high-pitched instruments. The stated aim is smooth, natural sound across the whole spectrum.
How do calls hold up in the street?
Through a bone conduction sensor that picks up the vibration of your voice, backed by an AI-based noise reduction algorithm and deep neural network processing. A dedicated structure also reduces wind noise.
Are they more compact than the previous generation?
Yes: about 25% smaller and 20% lighter than the WF-1000XM4, thanks to a rearrangement of the components. The charging case has also been made smaller, so it slips more easily into a pocket.
Can you adjust the volume without touching your phone?
Yes: just tap twice on the earbud. Depending on the settings, you can even launch your music service without opening the app, and assign a different function to each earbud in the free Sound Connect app.
Are they water-resistant?
They are stated as water-resistant, which makes them usable every day without special precautions — a downpour on your commute or sweat from a brisk walk is not a problem.
Are these Sony earbuds new and under warranty?
Yes, new and genuine, with the invoice serving as the warranty document for 1 year. The exact reference is WF-1000XM5/BME: it is what identifies the product for any warranty claim.
A dedicated woofer and tweeter in each earbud, backed by a dual amplifier: bass and treble no longer tread on each other. Wireless audio reaches up to 24-bit/96 kHz on compatible Galaxy devices.
•2-way driver, dedicated woofer and tweeter
•Dual dedicated amplifier for high-fidelity sound
•Audio up to 24-bit/96 kHz with the Samsung Seamless codec
Two-way speaker and dual amplifier: bass and treble are driven separately. Noise cancellation adapts to the environment on its own, opens up when you speak and lets sirens through.
Galaxy AI continuously adjusts the equaliser and noise cancellation to the shape of your ear. Up to 6 h of listening per charge, 5 h with noise cancellation, and 30 h in total with the case, which charges wirelessly.
Nothing in the ear canal: the sound arrives by air conduction and the ear stays on the street, on colleagues or on announcements. The SonicArc design limits sound leakage so only the wearer hears it.
Eight hours of music in the earbuds and three more charges in the case, 32 h in total. Ten minutes on a USB-C cable give back three hours of listening.
6.5 g per ear and a soft memory-wire hook calibrated to just the right pressure: no pinching, no wobble, from morning to evening. No tip blocks the ear canal.
Three microphones per ear and wind-cutting processing keep the voice intelligible mid-run. Up to 12 h of listening from the earbuds with noise cancelling off, and 48 h in total with the case.
Sweat, rain, salt water and sand do not stop them: the IP68 rating protects them from water and dust alike. Up to 8 h of listening with active noise cancelling, 48 h in total with the case.
The silicone ear hook with memory wire bends to any ear shape and stays put during exercise. 10.5 g per earbud, touch controls and Ambient Aware mode to stay aware of the road.
Four microphones analyse the surrounding noise and cut it automatically; Smart Ambient mode does the opposite and lets voices back in. Multipoint to move from the tablet to the phone without disconnecting.
•Adaptive active noise cancelling
•Smart Ambient mode: hear your surroundings without taking them out
Up to 30 dB of ambient rumble removed by active noise cancelling: open-plan office, train or plane. Five hours of listening per charge of the earbuds, 25 h in total with the case, and four microphones for the voice.
Two-way speaker and dual amplifier: bass and treble are driven separately. Noise cancellation adapts to the environment on its own, opens up when you speak and lets sirens through.
Three microphones per ear and wind-cutting processing keep the voice intelligible mid-run. Up to 12 h of listening from the earbuds with noise cancelling off, and 48 h in total with the case.
Two battery regimes: 10 h from the earbuds alone and 40 h in total with the case, noise cancelling on; 12 h and 48 h with it off. Ambient Aware and TalkThru let outside sounds back in.
