Sony’s latest top-end Bluetooth earbuds are smaller, lighter and more comfortable, promising class-leading noise cancelling and quality sound – but that is no longer enough to stand out from the crowd.
The WF-1000XM5 cost £259 ($299.99/A$419) and are the fifth generation of the firm’s standard-setting earbuds, replacing the excellent XM4s from a couple of years ago.
