Sony's ultra comfortable WH-1000XM5 headphones rewrite the rules for distraction-free listening and exceptional call clarity. Two processors control multiple microphones for unprecedented noise cancelling while Auto NC Optimizer automatically optimizes noise cancelling based on your wearing conditions and environment. The specially designed 30 mm driver unit delivers superior sound quality for all your entertainment.
The best noise cancelling
From airplane noise to people's voices, the WH-1000XM5 wireless headphones with multiple-microphone noise cancelling keep out more high- and mid-frequency sounds than ever. And with Auto NC Optimizer, noise cancelling is automatically optimized based on your wearing conditions and environment.
Multi Noise Sensor technology
With four microphones on each earcup, this is our biggest ever step forward in noise cancelling. Ambient sound is captured even more accurately for a dramatic reduction in high-frequency noise. Thanks to Auto NC Optimizer, noise-cancelling performance is always and automatically optimized based on wearing conditions and external environmental factors such as atmospheric pressure.

Specially designed 30mm driver unit
The specially designed 30mm driver unit featuring a soft edge enhances noise cancelling, helping you enjoy your music precisely, without ambient noise. The carbon fibre composite material realizes light weight and high rigidity dome and improves sound clarity, especially in high-frequency ranges.
Superlative sound, engineered to perfection
The specially designed 30mm driver unit with light and rigid dome using carbon fibre composite material improves high frequency sensitivity for more natural sound quality. Sony unique technologies include a premium lead-free solder containing gold for excellent conductivity, Fine Sound Resistor for even power distribution and optimized circuitry for an improved signal-to-noise ratio to ensure clear, consistent sound.
Enjoy High-Resolution Audio with and without wires
The WH-1000XM5 supports High-Resolution Audio and High-Resolution Audio Wireless, thanks to LDAC, our industry-adopted audio coding technology. LDAC transmits approximately three times more data than conventional Bluetooth® audio for exceptional High-Resolution Audio quality.
Real-time restoration of all your compressed files
Using Edge-AI (Artificial Intelligence), DSEE Extreme™ upscales compressed digital music files in real time. Dynamically recognizing instrumentation, musical genres and individual elements of each song, it restores high-range sound lost in compression.
Industry-leading call quality
Sony's Precise Voice Pickup Technology uses four beamforming microphones and an AI-based noise reduction algorithm to isolate your voice precisely. A newly developed wind noise reduction structure minimizes wind noise during calls. Wherever you are, you'll always hear and be heard clearly.
Multiple microphones, focused on your voice
Equipped with four beamforming microphones, these headphones are calibrated to only pick up your voice. An improved signal-to-noise ratio enables them to catch every single word, even when there's a lot of noise around.
