If you’re in the market for a pair of premium ANC wireless headphones this holiday season, you’re in luck. Sony's critically acclaimed WH-1000XM5 headphones have hit a new all-time low price just in time for Christmas.
Originally launched at $399, Sony’s amazing WH-1000XM5 can be had for just $278 on Amazon right now. That’s a solid $132 discount on the best ANC headphones on the market and beats their previous lowest price by $32. All four colors—Black, Midnight Blue, Silver, and Smoky Pink—reflect the discounted price. Best Buy also has these headphones on sale for roughly the same price.
Sony really knocked it out of the park with the WH-1000XM5. The latest model comes with a striking new design that makes these headphones even more comfortable and durable. And while noise cancellation on the WH-1000XM4 was already top-notch, it’s even better on the WH-1000XM5—Sony says the new pair can more effectively suppress higher frequencies. The sound quality is quite superb out of the box, and those who care about things like high-resolution audio, sampling rate, and latency will be pleased to learn that these headphones offer LDAC codec support and can be used in wired mode.
They also deliver significantly better voice call quality than the 1000XM4, thanks to four beamforming microphones and AI algorithms that isolate your voice from background noise. The battery life is rated for 30 hours of continuous playback and support for multipoint connection means the headphones can be connected to two devices at once. Other notable highlights include wearing detection, touch controls, Speak-to-Chat, adaptive sound control, and fast charging support.
