Sony is teasing the arrival of the upcoming TWS earphones that reads “What happens when #TheBestSilence Drops by Sony?” The upcoming offering is scheduled to debut on September 27 at 2 pm IST. The event will be live-streamed on the company’s official YouTube channel. The teaser image does hint at the WF-1000XM5 as we can see a Black color surface and a Gold circular component that could be the speaker.  

The Sony WF-1000XM5 Indian variant is expected to be the same as its global counterpart. The earphones have an in-ear design for a comfortable fit. On the audio front, they are equipped with a Dynamic Driver X. There is LDAC and DSEE Extreme for enhanced and original sound quality. The TWS earphones feature 360-degree audio for an immersive experience and the head-tracking technology adjusts the sound based on the user’s head movements. 

The Sony WF-1000XM5 features active noise cancellation with three microphones. There is an AI-based noise reduction algorithm and bone conduction sensor for clear and natural sound on calls even in noisy places. Additionally, there is wind noise reduction that minimizes wind sound during calls outdoors. The audio device is claimed to offer 8 hours of usage and 16 hours with the charging case. Other features include multipoint connection, speak-to-chat, and support for Spotify, Apple Music etc. 

The Sony WF-1000XM5 are priced at $299 in the US. We will have to wait till next week to learn about the India pricing.
