Sony WH-1000XM5 Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones (Midnight Blue)

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 optimised based on wearing conditions and external environmental factors such as atmospheric pressure.

Incomparable Noise Cancelling

Specially developed by Sony, the Integrated Processor V1 unlocks the full potential of our HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN1. This unique combination of technology controls eight microphones to deliver unprecedented noise cancelling quality.

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 fiber composite material realizes light weight and high rigidity dome and improves sound clarity, especially in high frequency ranges.

Enjoy High-Resolution Audio With And Without Wires

For Everyday Convenience, Just Speak-To-Chat

As soon as you start a conversation, Speak-to-Chat automatically stops your music and lets in ambient sound - handy if you want to keep your headphones and advanced audio signal processing to recognise and react to your voice. Once your chat is over, your music starts playing again automatically.

Plays Music Automatically

You can enjoy music exactly when you need them by turning on Wear to Play and each scene. Playback starts automatically when you put your headphones in - no need to touch you smartphone - and plays the right music for the moment, based on your daily routines or sensing activities like a daily walk, gym, workout, or commute. And, with Voice Cue you'll still be notified of important information like appointments and reminders, so you can always stay connected to both life and entertainment wherever you go.

Instant Pause. Instant Play. 

Just take the headphones off and the music stops - a capacitive sensor knows when you are wearing them. It also helps improve detection accuracy and design. Put the headphones back on and the music starts again.
