Sony's earlier live stream officially unveiled the WF-1000XM5 wireless headphones to the world, with the device highly-awaited by the public for a long time now. The company also brought its release video that highlights several of the tech and features it included for the device, improving from its last year's release of the WF-1000XM4.

One of the trusted names in audio history, Sony pieces together a massive release for its audio wearable, bringing forth its latest design and engineering for the audio device. It promises a better active noise canceling feature that blocks out all ambient sound, as well as High-Resolution audio thanks to its latest processors on each piece.

The company also partnered with R&B star, Miguel, in introducing the device to the world.

Apart from its better ANC and Hi-Res audio promises, the device also features its latest Dynamic Driver X that promises an enhanced listening experience with rich sound outputs via DSEE Extreme.

Sony also debuts a 360 Reality Audio experience that "surrounds" the user with music right with head tracking capabilities. The company also promises better calling features with six mics built around it, with three on each earbud.

The new WF-1000XM5 is now available for pre-orders, with its selling price coming in at a premium $299.99, expected to deliver by August 8 to 9.

Sony's Iconic Audio Wearables

The world may have gotten an iconic sound from Apple's AirPods lineup, as well as its Beats, and the smartphone manufacturers dominating the audio device industry, but the likes of Sony are still relevant with their developments. For years, Sony has proven that its wireless audio wearables are some of the best in the world, from wireless over-the-ear headphones, to its in-ear devices.

Earlier this year, the last-gen wireless earphones, WF-1000XM4, have dropped its prices to as much as $200 only, with a $100 price slash on the high-quality wearables. It was believed to be a cue from Sony regarding its next-gen wireless earphones that will update its current lineup, with the device's announcement coming three months later.

Sony is regarded for its quality, rich sounds, iconic drivers, and overall form factor for its TWS earphones over the years, making them a significant contender against Apple's tech and the others. The long-awaited update of the WF-1000XM series is now here, featuring the latest developments for all audio listening needs for $299.99.
