Video Description

Sony WF-1000XM5 Earbuds ๐ŸŽง๐Ÿ”ฅ | InsideTech Review. Apologies for the inconsistent voice over on this one, I was losing my voice but did my best! Sony used to consistently rank at the top of earbuds lists and even held the noise cancelling crown in the past. They have a great reputation, but the industry has since moved on very quickly and they've started to fall behind the competition. Sony calls their new WF-1000XM5 the 'best noise cancelling headphones'...which is a pretty bold claim in 2023. This video will look at everything the earbuds have to offer, what's changed from the mark 4s and crucially...how these actually compare to the rest of the market. If you (like me) find that the Sony ear tips donโ€™t fit very well, try these instead: Get your Sonicfoam ear tips here: ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ https://amzn.to/45kHJ5z (Amazon UK) ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ https://amzn.to/44WBRzC (Amazon US) ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ https://amzn.to/3OIwLlf (Amazon CA) p.s.
