Los WH-1000XM5 son otro par de auriculares con cancelación de ruido fantásticos que nos llegan de la mano de Sony. La compañía ha ajustado y perfeccionado la calidad del sonido, el ANC y el diseño, y todo para mejor.
Aun así, sin duda algunos echarán de menos la posibilidad de plegarlos para que quepan en un bolsillo.

Sony’s WH-1000XM5 improve over their predecessors in small ways that add up. The new design assists noise-cancelling performance, but it also means the headphones are no longer foldable; the ANC makes all types of environments spookily quiet, while the audio has received incremental gains for a better sound. Overall, the 1000XM5 are another superb all-round set of wireless headphones from Sony.
