  • Super comfy headphones, Fantastically warm and balanced sound, Excellent noise cancellation, GPS tracking can shift the various cancellation modes, Solid battery life
  • Case isn't as portable as it once was, More expensive this time around, Not much has changed beyond design
  • If you can get over the alarming price, Sony's noise cancelling headphones are still absolute bangers, delivering quality and volume.Make no mistake, the Sony WH-1000XM5 are among the best noise cancelling headphones around. Yes, they're more pricey than...

  • The Sony WH-1000XM5 is priced at Rs 34,990 with a one-year warranty, but can still be purchased for its introductory price of Rs 26,990 online and offline. While the official price is higher than that of the XM4 at launch, the introductory price is actual...

  • Abstract:  There are few better companions for long-haul flights than good noise-cancelling headphones which are comfortable to wear for long hours, especially if the long haul you are taking is going to take you from Delhi to San Francisco in just about 24 hours. O...

  • Good, Looks good, comfortable fit, Very good app and features, Detailed, well-tuned, flexible sound, Impressive active noise cancellation, Excellent battery life
  • A bit expensive, Does not fold fully, less portable
  • Sony has long been a leading brand for high-end wireless headphones, and the WH-1000XM5 firmly helps to keep that title. With small improvements to the sound quality and ANC performance, along with reliably good battery life and connectivity, the Sony WH-...

  • Exceptional Active Noise Cancellation, Supremely comfortable, LDAC codec support, Great battery life, Convenient features like Multipoint and Quick Attention
  • Slightly boosted bass and low mids, Less portable than before, No IP rating
  • Sony has done it yet again! Expectations are always soaring when it comes to Sony's flagship WH-1000X series of headphones and the Sony WH-1000XM5 more than just meets it. The Sony WH-1000XM5 are, without a doubt, best-in-class noise-cancelling headphones...

  • Sleek and contemporary design caters to modern taste, Touch controls are really seamless once you get a hand of it, Non-folding design definitely reduces fragility anxiety, Reasonable comfort with soft ear cups allows long hours usage, Bass-heavy sound pr
  • Attractiveness to fingerprints, Inconsistent sound tuning as the emphasis on bass often overshadows the mids and highs, leading to a somewhat skewed sound profile, Limited soundstage, Affordability almost never synonymies with Sony
  • The Sony WH-1000XM5 needed to up the ante from its 4th generation and I can only say that Sony is slowly running out of ideas on how to further improve it. It does bring goodness to the table, but considering the price point, the 4th gen seems to be a muc...

  • Abstract:  The sound of music is just as valuable as the sound of silence. But with how inconsiderate and noisy our island's denizens can be, both are scarce luxuries in Singapore. That is, until you invest in a pair of headphones capable of Active Noise Cancellatio...
