Sony WH-1000XM5 ANC Headphones (Silver)

Meet the headphones built for a world that never stops making noise. The Sony WH-1000XM5 in Silver puts you in complete control of your listening environment, combining a dual-processor architecture with eight precision microphones to deliver noise cancellation that outperforms anything Sony has produced before — especially across high and midrange frequencies.

Audio That Goes Beyond Wireless

At the heart of the WH-1000XM5 is a newly developed 30mm driver engineered with a carbon fiber composite dome for high-frequency clarity, a soft TPU edge for low-frequency noise isolation, a Fine Sound Resistor for even power distribution, and premium gold-containing lead-free solder for superior connectivity. Optimized circuitry raises the signal-to-noise ratio, while LDAC Bluetooth support streams roughly three times the data of a standard Bluetooth connection — bringing Hi-Res Audio directly to your ears from compatible devices. Compressed files get a second life too, as Sony's DSEE Extreme uses Edge-AI in real time to identify instruments, genre, and song elements, restoring lost high-range detail on the fly.

Engineered to Keep You Heard

When it's your turn to talk, Precise Voice Pickup technology — trained on over 500 million voice samples via AI machine learning — uses four beamforming microphones to lock onto your voice and filter out surrounding noise. Sony's Auto NC Optimizer continuously adapts cancellation settings to your environment, even accounting for atmospheric pressure changes. All of this inside a lightweight design that comfortably carries you through up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge.
