Sony Wireless Noise Cancelling Earphones WF-1000XM5 VGP2025 Gold Award Completely Outstanding performance Compact lightweight design High-performance

World-class noise canceling (＊) is made possible by the integrated processor V2 and the high-quality noise canceling processor QN2e, enabling high-level noise canceling processing and sound quality signal processing. Additionally, the "Multi Noise Sensor Technology" features dual feedback microphones and feedforward microphones, with three noise canceling microphones in each ear, achieving overwhelming noise canceling performance. This allows for a further 20% noise reduction compared to the WF-1000XM4, providing an unprecedented level of sound quality in complete silence. ＊ As of April 10, 2023, according to Sony research, based on standards set by the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA). Captivating ultimate sound experience with Sony's uniquely developed 8.4mm driver unit "Dynamic Driver X." The diaphragm structure combines different materials for the dome and edge, with a soft edge that sinks for low frequencies and a lightweight, high-rigidity dome that reproduces extended high frequencies. High-quality processing from signal processing to playback minimizes distortion, achieving overwhelmingly high sound quality. High wearability and minimal design realized through miniaturization and lightweight construction. Sony's uniquely developed thin driver unit and the SiP (System in Package) of the main circuit board have achieved miniaturization. The wearing part, which was 7.3g in the previous model WF-1000XM4, has been reduced to 5.9g in the WF-1000XM 5. By reducing the volume of the earphone body by about 25% compared to previous models, interference with the ear is minimized, ensuring comfortable wearability. The inner side of the wearing part adopts an "Ergonomic Surface Design" that supports the earphone body at the contact surface with the ear, featuring a curved shape that fits the inner ear. Furthermore, the design minimizes height, resulting in a smaller protrusion from the ear, achieving excellent wearing stability. The microphone section employs a design with a smooth surface processed with fine holes in metal to reduce wind noise. call quality in Sony's true wireless history (＊) has been achieved while miniaturizing the device. By adopting a wind noise reduction structure along with high-precision voice pickup technology and bone conduction sensors, the highest call quality in Sony's true wireless history has been realized. Simultaneous connection to two devices regardless of the operating system is possible, eliminating the need for Bluetooth connection switching. For example, by connecting to a personal smartphone and a company computer, users
