The Sony WH-1000XM5 is the predecessor to the current generation WH-1000XM6 (which is also currently on sale ). Even though it's no longer the "latest and greatest," the XM5 is still an excellent headphone at a price much lower than its successor. IGN's Kevin Wong reviewed these headphones and considered them to be the best wireless noise canceling headphones at the time. The XM5 features excellent sound quality, great noise-canceling performance, and comfortable ergonomics. It's also sleek looking as far as headphones go and features an excellent 30-hour battery life with convenient USB Type-C recharging. It competes with other premium headphones like the Bose QuietComfort Ultra and AirPods Max.
