Sony WF-1000XM5 via Amazon India amzn.to/3Qci3lw
using WH1000XM4 over the ear headphones from sony, since a year and they have been amazing so far. battery life is still on point, sound signature, multiple device connectivity, customisation from app. Each and everything makes me happier for choosing this product. I use it on daily basis and they have been running good so far.
yes bro the sound is like booom boom
Yes I am using it from 2021 and battery back up is miles better than others. I use it with L DAC
Mine is also working fine i got a extra pair of buds let me know if anyone interested 🙌🏻
How much battery did u get with ANC?
Around 5 hrs with ANC AND LDAC
The important feature apart from sound quality is the dedicated app compatibility for both Android and iOS. Sony is the best at it.
Agreed! I personally use the app a lot for customisations
For Android it's special because of ldac capability 96 khz with Max 990 kbps bitrate
Nowadays missing Ranjit Sir’s videos a lot.
Finally he is back. Take care of yourself sir.😊
Thanks a ton
@@geekyranjitMy Pleasure ☺️
Maybe he is busy with other professions?, I am curious to know what professional life he has apart from yt.

Been watching for more than 6-7 years. The quality of review is always the highest.
Excellent review Sir..
I've been using these beauties (WF-1000 XM5 TWS) since a couple of weeks and I'm absolutely loving them. It took some time for me to adjust to the memory foam buds, but they are super comfortable than the regular silicon buds. Music and Call quality is great. The App has a lot of options to customise the sound profile. There's some room for improvement in noise cancellation though in comparison with Bose QC Ultra earbuds.
Overall, a great product from Sony!!
How did you goyt this product delivered? Purchased from India?
@@DhanushBManoj I bought in Canada bro
Does the case head slightly move when it is closed?
@@sunnyanan480 did you check the case battery?? Is it draining fast even without using the case
@@DhanushBManoj didn't notice what you said. Actually I am using it for 5 days only.
Yesterday my xm5 case dropped on the floor. So I'm doubting that the case head is ok or originally like this.
Still using WF 1000 XM3 since 2020 & loving them. Not the most comfortable or compact. Has the worst mic for calls, decent battery life. But EXCELLENT Noise cancellation & Sound quality.
The sound tuning done on that is IEM Level.
Long time no see
Reynolds pen has gone😅
No it hasn't.
Please try googling before posting tik-tok viral news flashes.
Cause Reynolds discontinued that pen. They are not producing that famous pen anymore.
Nooooooooo😮
No!
@@abhilashg1368they did not. It was fake news. Reynolds has clarified on this situation.
Great video! If i may give a suggestion, please use a light background table or maybe use a lighter colour sheet of paper for darker/colored products as it would make the product pop out and more details would be visible. Right now that tan leather kind of backdrop affects the legibility. Also little bright lights on product shots please.
Your reviews are just awesome always, classic and professional..
Glad you like them!
@@geekyranjitbro should i buy samsung galaxy buds2 pro or buy sony wxm1000 5 should i buy which one as i am cureently using samsung phone
@@geekyranjit but you don't heart comments. Who are you?
The best and honest reviewer in CZcams is back❤
Agree
💯
Straightforward and honest review dependable when going for tech purchases.
I own the XM4s and for me personally the design of the buds itself is more premium and distinct and captures attention whereas the XM5s are just too small not noticeable like people actually ask me which earphones are these that I am wearing
For show off get the apple 🍎
@@parimalpatel1973 Naa bro I don't like apple and sound quality is priority plus the Sony ones look more unique
@@sohamchaudhari9998Jabra elite 10 has very good sound quality and excellent anc
I orderd Samsung galaxy buds 2 pro in Sale . Hope they will be great also like sony xm4 ?
@@ALLINONE-it5ch they r great but anc is mediocre but sound quality is good
"Hey Ranjit! Can you please do a comparison video on Oppo Enco X2 vs Sony XM5 vs Sony Link Buds S vs Nothing Ear 2? Your detailed insights would be really helpful. Thanks!"
Hey Ranjit, I really like the content you create. One small request I wanted to make was if the table top being used is of a lighter colour the product would be better. Though I acknowledge that I was viewing the video dead in the night on low brightness.
sir,
I am your huge fan.
This msg is regarding the content of your videos.
I have watched a lot of this tws segment. I myself have bought an ATH M50x, Pixel earbuds, Yas 109 and some other tech related elements after your recommendation and I am completely happy with my purchases also . But....
Sir...This tws segment is relatively less important in my opinion. Continuous keeping an ear bud in your ear(Air pods) even without a usage ( expecting a call some time) for a whole day can definitely damage your ears..
This can also ache your ear also as it's holding them for long time . .
Neck band instead is lot more practical choice..you can hang them in neck if not in use..and it won't fall down easily as earbuds if you sleep with it in your ears...
I am just trying to mark a reminder as you have done a lot of earlier generations of tws of sony, bose , senhisers etc....and still reviewing their successors..But are they having that much improvement with its predecessors for an detailed review or an upgrade??
Whether a normal person need to shell out that much money for an ANC now a days??
Actually whom all require this tws over a neck band or a premuim headphone??(cost is more for ANC tws)
It might be my ignorance...kindly ignore it if I am wrong..
Always praying for you good health.
Thank you sir..
Sorry for the correction. I am using xm4. It has multiple connectivity. You can connect to 2 devices at the same time. It was not there in the beginning, but Sony introduced that by a software update.
Hi Ranjit, massive props to you for your work. Have been watching your videos for over 10 years now. I had a question regarding one of the points you made regarding the microphone quality. I've recently bought these earbuds, they work great, but during calls, people complain about the ambient noises. They say they can hear a lot of ambient noise. On the contrary, you said in the video the complete opposite of it. Could you please let me know what settings you had used? Or maybe what I might be doing wrong?
Huge fan of your channel! Your tech videos are always informative and entertaining. I'd love to see you tackle a topic that's been confusing me lately: the differences between headphones, earbuds, and all their variations.
Specifically, I'm curious about:
On-ear vs. over-the-ear headphones: What are the pros and cons of each type, and who would benefit most from each?
In-ear vs. on-ear earbuds: How do these two types differ in terms of sound quality, comfort, and noise isolation?
Headphones vs. earphones: What's the fundamental difference between these two categories, and are there any specific use cases where one might be better than the other?
A video on this topic would be incredibly helpful for people like me who are trying to navigate the vast world of audio equipment. You'd be doing a great service to your viewers!
Thanks for your time and consideration. Keep up the fantastic work!
Been using the Sennheiser MTW3 for about a year and a half. Thinking of trying the Sony XM5's after watching your review 😅
U better think twice... xm4 were notorious post update failure issues..
@@DeepakKumar-uj6br Yeah I read... but it's not like I'm going to throw away my Sennheisers 😂
As of right now, I go back and forth between my MTW3 and Galaxy Buds Pros, so got bored of them. Let's try the XM5's and see what happens 🤞
Nailed the conclusion! It is a good choice for around INR 20000, over which it will be overpriced. 👌🙌
I wanted to convey one thing. I have been using Sony WF-1000XM4 from the last 13 months. Warranty completed just a month ago and suddenly from 2-3 days ago the battery of the buds became very weak. It lasts less than an hour. I am not even a heavy user. Searching on the internet I found many users facing this issue.
I now doubt that the XM5s could be the same, not just XM5 but any other Sony product.
13k just for a year of battery life is a joke for me.
I also had battery life issue on the WF-XM4 I have mentioned about that in the end of the video, I heard Sony was offering warranty replacement as it's a known issue on the XM4.
@@geekyranjit Sad part is mine is out of warranty by just 29 days and then this issue started.
u could mail them, there is a chance of replacement@@lalithmailipilli
@@lalithmailipilli Do you notice a drastic change in audio quality when connecting to phones of different brands?
@@rohans6900 Not yet. But today I noticed that earbuds were slightly getting warm.
Hope they sorted out all the battery issues with the XM4s. The previous version was plagued with battery issues.
What kind of batter issues?
Amazing review, thanks
Please do a top 5 android phones video , for 2023 ! For premium as well as mid range.
I was confused between Sony c500 and pixel buds a series and then I watched your review of pixel buds and bought it at 4k from Flipkart in the sale. Thanks for your review ❤️🔥
go for pixel buds a
At this price realme air 5 pro and oppo enco 3 is way better then Pixle buds a ...you miss ANC in many conditions also that support tip gonna pain in some case
@@parimalpatel1973best for gaming ? Pls mention 🙏
I have 2 questions:
1. Is it just the equalizer or does each and every setting tweaked in the app gets stored inside the TWS?
2. Does it work as well with desktop/laptop (particularly Windows) as it does with phones? Does each functionality: sound quality, latency, microphone, everything else, work as expected?
(I think there's not a dedicated app for Sony TWS on Windows but I hope that I can just change settings using the phone app and everything will be working fine on PC as well. If I'm buying such an expensive TWS I'm ofc gonna be using it on my PC to experience that beautiful sound and ANC and stuff. Also, the dual connectivity feature makes it tempting to use it with a combination of phone and laptop.
Ranjit Sir, I'm curious to ask you this Can u tell me which "Garmen Watch" do you use all the time in your videos ??
Upgraded from xm3 to xm 5 loved it btw
❤❤❤❤
How is the ANC?
Sudden notification of your video make me smile and lots of thoughts started running in background...
Good to see you back. Hope you are well now
You can buy premium TWS easily but their battery degrades extremely fast, I mean you can't use any TWS in long term you have to buy again in 1.5-2 years
Is it better than Samsung buds 2 pro
I wanna know the same
@geekyranjit bro been following you even before i brought my oneplus 5!! Good to see you back posting new new videos and on track,looking forward to more sch videos🤟🤟🤟
The only 2 things left for Sony to bring are WI 1000XM3 with IP68 certification and a WH with a larger CCAW Hybrid coil than the 1000XM5 which will have an even wider soundstage and better bass as well as more prominent mids and vocals.
Hi Ranjit Sir, I'm currently using the XF 1000xm4. I'd bought these for Rs 13500. Is it worth upgrading to 1000xm5?
Thank you 😊
Can you please make a tws video for under 3k and 5k budget... Most tech youtubers don't talk tech these days. No mention of codec support and neither low mids or highs... Please do make one... 🙏
Hey there... Amazing review as always.... Was wondering what would your suggestion be for someone who is looking to buy tws strictly for watching movies on tv?
HATS OFF TO YOU SIR , FOR YOUR HONESTY
Jabra Elite 10 Vs Sony XM5 , which would be better to choose ?
@geekyranjit I am planning to upgrade from XM4's to XM5's. Can you confirm if the battery is holding up in the long run ?
Sony’s great approach to product build the best noise cancellation earbuds here too
Sir siblings with different face
Iphone me face unlock khul ja raha hai both siblings sister use iphone 12 and 12mini both can open each others phone even only one face registered in both then what kind of security is it what kind of secure face id is this my old realme 1 dont open but this iphone with all technology security opening like that just In one try everytime
What is this apple doing please talk about it
And my sibling frirnds not alone facing this a simple Google search shows multiple cases regarding this.
Why no one is talking about Jabra Elite 10 which can give a tough time for all top tier TWS at a cheaper price.?
Hello Ranjit Sir,
Lag while watching videos - I am using Boat Airdopes 170, having Bluetooth 5.3. The lag sometime comes but as you told, if we just pause and play, it goes.. same is happening with my TWS. I think its related to BT 5.3. Also if i rewind the video, by double tapping, the lag goes away.. ( Happens very rarely)
Big fan sir, i have came and met in Mumbai's Event of ROG phone.. please do visit Mumbai and do some kind of meetup..😇
Sony XM4 battery drain problem, when I went to the Sony service center near the Mumbai airport with my XM4, they replaced them immediately even though it was no longer under warranty.
Happy Dusshhera Ranjit Sir 🙏🏻, i am watching your videos since 2013
Enco X vs WF 1000XM5, which one would you choose?
Easy XM5 the sound quality is just more punch and impacting but Enco X is slightly more comfortable.
@@geekyranjit Thank you!
Still using xm3, loving the music quality of Sony. However, battery im getting only 2hrs with ANC on!
gonna wait for the next festival sales for the price to come down more and also to see whether these will have the battery issue 😁😁
review of samsung galaxy buds fe vs samsung galaxy buds2 pro or buy sony xm5
Enco x2 vs xm5, sir which one will you choose?
Obviously xm5 😂😂...what a comparison
Sirji im planning to buy the new type c airpods now after your review which one should I buy? I have 13 pro
I bought it from Amazon in sale it cost 17000₹ with sony Bluetooth speakers. Nice earbuds and nice sound but jabra elite 10 also good in sound and bass.
Dissappointed that you didn't mention the fact that they postponed all pre-orders by 3 months from October delivery to December anytime and they are no longer available to buy from amazon either, hope anyone who's interested in these can get this information
How do I have that info, or do I work for sony or does Sony India give me that info. If Sony is not honouring the pre-orders it's very bad on their part already this product was launched about 4 months ago in the international market.
But they are providing a compensation of 2k for all after delivery
After a long time
Good review. Pls review the Sony WH-CH720Ns too.
Sir, don't you have to speak little bit louder when you are on any tws? Yes, it can cut background noise, but does tws capture your voice when you speak on a normally? I am a heavy call user & need to buy the best sounding neckband or tws. Price is no bar..
This may be a bit too much to ask, but can you please review the CH720Ns by Sony? I just want to see where they stand compared to the other very premium offerings like the QC45s and the XM5s...
Ranjit just wanted to ask do u still prefer/suggest airpods or Sony Xm5 for Iphone User's & i will use sometimes with WIndows laptop for movie watching
Ofcourse there is no replacement for airpods pro 2 for iOS airpods is very good no comparison
Hi sir, does it have surrounding effect EQ settings? I mean if i love 3d effects then is it possible in sony? I cant find any device which has a theatre/surround Eq in settings. Could you pls suggest me?
Any type c earphones recommendation Or wch is the best value for money - c to 3.5mm adapter
Hi sir, im a huge fan of your videos, i watch all the videos which you post, last year I've purchased WF-1000xm4 after watching your review video, in WF-1000xm4 model has an battery drain issue on 1 earbuds. After fully charged while using both at same time on 1 earbuds battery drains out. Sony is not fixing it.
So please answer me on this in technical questions and answers video.
Ranjit can you suggest a bluetooth or wireless speaker for tv, not soundbar
Hello Ranjit sir! Hope you’re doing fine. I was planning to buy a smartwatch. I have an iPhone 11 and Apple Watches are too expensive for me. The Samsung galaxy watch 4 comes under my budget, but it is not compatible with iPhones. Just wanted to check via Bluetooth what features are available for iPhone user on the galaxy watch 4. Can I receive and make calls, can I get notifications like WhatsApp, Instagram and other apps on my watch, and the main thing is can I use Google maps on the watch? I watched the review of the watch on your channel and is a great VFM product. Would be helpful if I get a reply😅 coz I need to purchase one at the earliest
Much awaited review
Happy Dushera Ranjit. Quick question, purely in terms of sound quality and nothing else, which one would be your pick: XM5, Airpods Pro Gen 2, Bose QC Ultra or Sennheiser Momentum TWS 3?
Galaxy buds pro 2 has the best tuning (Harman target). 2nd is Airpods pro 2 (V shaped Harman target). XM5 will be even more V shaped (but that's good for commuting).
I have both airpods pro 2 and buds 2 pro clarity and bass on airpods are better than galaxy buds there is no comparison but recently I bought Jabra elite 10 it sounds better than airpods pro 2 and anc is almost same level of airpods
Does it support LDAC and Hi-Res on the Pixel 8? I currently have the 8 Pro and I am planning to get the WF-1000XM5 for Hi-Res streaming.
boAt Airdopes 500 ANC vs Sony WF-1000XM5
Which is better to buy ?
How wide is the soundstage? Especially compared to Galaxy Buds 2 Pro?
Hi Ranjit, Why you are not reviewing iPhone 15? Any specific reason!
I mean seriously. I see so many reviewers spreading false information. It is absolutely possible to use LDAC and connect two devices simultaneously with Sony WF-1000XM4. Double check your facts please. Thank You.
What's the difference between memory foam and silicon?
Silicone tips are durable, washable, and generally more affordable. They provide a comfortable fit and good sound isolation. Foam tips, on the other hand, offer superior sound isolation and tend to conform better to the ear
@@RajeshKumarbme thankyou very much!
Sir just yesterday I ordered wf 1000xm5 , I don't buy Airpod pro 2nd gen did I suffer when using it on iPhone 15 Plus
Pls do a comparison of Airpods Pro 2nd gen, Sony Xm5s , Samsung buds, Sennheiser and other flagships TWSs.
sir please make a video on oppo enco air3 pro and realme buds 5 pro
I am facing the same battery issue with my link-buds-S. Bought it about 6 months ago. The right one lasts 3-4 hrs, but the left dies in 30-40 mins.
samsung galaxy buds 2 pro or sony xm5
Obviously xm5 but there is a huge price gap between those. Buds 2 pro was sold at minimum 7k on the recent sales. So..
Sir please review nothing cmf buds pro, are they the best option at 3000 or below?
Sir can you review the oppo enco air3 pro? It seems to be a good product but I'd like to know your honest opinion on it.
what if we use both xm4 or xm5 with silicone tips and which one to go qc 45 or wh xm5
Sir...do the xm5s have block touches feature.....can we use them while sleeping.....i want to buy them and it is a deal breaker for me
sie please suggest among jabra elite 10, bose qc buds 2, senheiser momentum true wireless 3
Hi Ranjit im just eagerly waiting for your pixel 8 pro review
Because next month on Black Friday day im about to purchase it please help me on that
Xm4 get update and currently it can connect two devices simultaneously
Hi Sir, On the comfort category, do you think that this new Sony XM5 is better than the Samsung Buds 2 pro ?
No the Samsung are more comfortable
@@RanjitKumar Thanks Sir.
Long term review please😢❤
Just wanted to clear out one thing. Do not order this right now from Amazon as price is showing 64000.
Sony officially started the pre-order from 27 September, promising the delivery around 26th October. The price was 20000 with sony sbs speaker as pre-order bonus. Now it is out of stock and all the pre-order delivery has been postponed till December 2023 first week.
I know this because I pre-ordered this as well from Amazon.
Currently at 19k on Amazon. Is it a good buy?
which one to buy samsung galaxy buds2 pro or buy samsung buds fe or buy sony xm5
Under 10000 which is better sony wh series or newer soundcore space one
Oppo enco's
What about Soundcore liberty 4NC...please suggest sir...love from 0disha.
Ranjitbhai apne iphone 15 series ka ek bhi video hi nai dala we are waiting
I’m stuck between Bose QC45 2 and Sony xm5 😩😩 I’m confused please help
Hello Sir
My 1000-XM5 anc is not working well can you help to resolve it?
As compared to xm4 the design is more compact,also the earbud shape is small ,but why do they give foam tips and not silicon
3:35 Can connect to two devices at the same time on XM4.
