I was fortunate to get to hold of one of the very first pairs of the new Sony WF-1000XM5 wireless earbuds ahead of the official launch that took place earlier this week on July 24. With over a month of living with Sony's newest wireless earbuds under my belt, the eagerly anticipated next-gen flagship version has really impressed me. In fact, so much so that I've ranked them top in the best wireless earbuds you can buy right right. I've also rated them as one of the best noise-cancelling earbuds I've heard, and they outperformed Apple's best earbuds in our Sony WF-1000XM5 vs AirPods Pro 2 face-off.
With some of the strongest feature sets I've seen on any a pair of wireless earbuds via the awesome Sony Headphones Connect app that now has spatial audio support, the new design elevates the listening experience beyond any other wireless earbuds I've heard.
