Sony’s noise-cancelling earbuds have been praised for their exceptional audio quality and ability to block out external noise. The WF-1000XM4 earbuds were the last addition to Sony’s line of earbuds, and they featured a V1 processor that allows for improved noise cancellation and audio processing. Well, those looking forward to the Sony WF-1000XM5 earbuds have good news coming their way – latest leaks have revealed the design and some other aspects of the upcoming noise-cancelling earbuds.
The leaked images show a more compact design compared to the previous model, with the model number and place of manufacture printed on the section holding the ear tips. This design change likely helps to facilitate a better fit in the ear. Unfortunately, the leaked photos only show one side of the earbuds, so there may be more to the design than what we can see.
The exterior of the earbuds is a shiny black plastic, although this may change for the final product. On the left side, a tactile dot and a microphone hole are visible, although it is unknown which microphone it is. A proximity sensor will be located on the bottom, according to reports. The earbuds will also feature a touch panel on the top surface, integrated with the Bluetooth antenna.
The charging case has undergone some significant changes as well. The new model will feature two pins for recharging and communication, compared to the three pins of the previous model. The case material looks to be matte, like the current model, and will also support wireless charging. While the size of the new case cannot be determined from the leaked images, the increase in charging capacity suggests some sort of an upgrade for the earbuds.
Despite the exciting news, we still do not know the official battery capacity of the earbuds, although leaked photos show the battery taking up a significant amount of interior space. With the WF-1000XM4 as a point of comparison, it seems likely that the new earbuds will feature a smaller battery. Nonetheless, fans of Sony‘s earbuds will no doubt be eagerly awaiting the WF-1000XM5’s release, eager to see how the company has improved on an already impressive product.
