Sony has introduced its latest flagship TWS earbuds, the WF-1000XM5, in India. These earbuds come with various enhancements, including a more comfortable design that reduces size and weight by around 25% compared to the previous model, the WF-1000XM4.
The WF-1000XM5 earbuds are equipped with three microphones on each earbud, including dual feedback microphones that enhance low-frequency noise cancellation performance.
Sony’s newly developed Integrated Processor V2 works in conjunction with the HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN2e, offering advanced noise cancellation capabilities adaptable to different environments. The technology utilizes six microphones across both ears.
These earbuds also feature LDAC technology, real-time audio enhancement through Edge-AI, head tracking for an immersive listening experience, up to 8 hours of battery life (16 hours with the charging case), and quick charging that provides 60 minutes of playtime in just 3 minutes. Additionally, they have an IPX4 rating, making them water-resistant.
