The Sony WF-1000XM5 earbuds have dropped to their lowest price ever on Amazon after a substantial 40% discount. The earbuds are among the top-rated models available for active noise cancellation and audio performance.

Amazon has given the Sony WF-1000XM5 ANC TWS earbuds their largest discount ever. The earbuds are now priced at $179.99, a 40% discount off the $299.99 MSRP.

The WF-1000XM5 earbuds are among the best true wireless stereo (TWS) models with active noise cancellation (ANC) that have been reviewed. Some reported negatives include less bass than some top earbuds and a difficult fit for some wearers due to the size.

These earbuds are packed with convenient features. They can respond to requests for the Google or Alexa voice assistant, allowing users to adjust earbud settings, make calls, and play music touch-free. Additionally, head gestures can be used to control the earbuds without touch. The earbuds can automatically play music at certain times of the day, while Speak-to-Chat automatically pauses music playback when users start speaking to others.

The ANC uses triple microphones in each earbud along with the Sony HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN2e to analyze and cancel out unwanted background noise from music and calls. Adaptive Sound Control actively monitors the ambient noise and uses AI to optimize sound settings for the best music playback. Bone conduction sensors and AI-powered Precise Voice Pickup technology separate voices from background noise so users are heard clearly during calls.

The 8.4 mm drivers have a frequency response of 20 Hz to 40 kHz when playing Hi-Res Audio files using the LDAC Bluetooth codec. Lower quality audio files are AI-upscaled using DSEE Extreme to restore lost details. The earbuds are certified for 360 Reality Audio with head tracking to reproduce immersive music recorded in a three-dimensional sound field.

The WF-1000XM5 earbuds have a runtime of up to 8 hours, with a total of 24 hours with the charging case. A 3-minute quick charge adds 60 minutes of runtime, and the case can wirelessly charge using Qi chargers.

Buy the Sony WF-1000XM5 ANC TWS earbuds on Amazon before the tariffs drive great deals away.
