Product details

With four microphones in each ear cup, these headphones are the biggest advance in noise cancelling to date. Ambient noise is detected even more precisely to reduce high-frequency noise even more effectively.
The Auto NC Optimizer automatically optimises noise cancelling according to fit and environmental factors such as air pressure. The integrated V1 processor, which was specially developed by Sony, fully exploits the potential of the QN1 HD processor for noise cancelling. This unique combination of technologies accurately controls eight microphones to deliver the unrivalled noise-cancelling quality for which the 1000X Series is renowned. The WH-1000XM5's precision-engineered 30 mm driver unit with soft TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) edge improves noise cancelling, especially at low frequencies. This allows you to enjoy your music without being disturbed by ambient noise. The lightweight, rigid driver ensures clear sound and improved bass reproduction.

ImTestder Klang der StilleReleaseApril 2024

The IMTEST comparison test shows that although more expensive doesn't necessarily mean better, the red pencil is clearly noticeable, especially with a very affordable model like the Soundcore Space Q45. There is a lack of sound quality, but savings are also noticeable in the microphones and ANC...

ImTest5 Over-In-Kopfhörer im TestReleaseMarch 2024

Modern over-ear headphones are good sound all-rounders. The Technics EAH-A800 won the test thanks to their long battery life, great sound and a powerful app. The solid Space One from Soundcore deliver a lot of headphones for little money.
