I asked SONY about the auto ANC on xm5 r SonyHeadphones

I turned off the adaptive sound control in the Sony Headphones app and I haven 39 t had one issue with auto ANC The anc is amazing Easily can toggle between anc and transparency using the dedicated hardware button on the left ear cup

Wow I just placed an order on the new WF 1000XM5 because my xm4s right earbud is draining faster than my left and this post shows up You went the wrong way this is a known issue and Sony needs to replace the battery Have you tried sending your XM4 back to Sony

You have the ability to fully control the noise canceling and ambient noise feature within the Sony Headphones Connect App If you want to toggle between noise canceling and letting the ambient noises simply use the button on the side of the headphones

I use everything ANC Priroity on sound quality Ldac and and DSEE on auto So I expect lower battery life but this is a bit too much from the claimed 8 hours plus this difference in drain has me worried

XM5 or XM4 or something else are they worth it in 2024

XM5 has by far the best ANC and microphone of all Sony Headphones It 39 s the first model with a usable microphone it 39 s so good at filtering out anything that 39 s not a human voice you can literally call someone while under the shower and they wouldn 39 t even hear the water running

Since the update for the XM5s I don t have any issues with ANC I use them at my desk for work i got the xm5s a couple days ago and they actually have an option to turn off adaptive anc instead you can just choose whether you want noise cancelling ambient noise or nothing

Auto anc on the XM5s r SonyHeadphones Reddit

In my first feedback I made it clear that either the Auto function needs to be seamless or ideally add an Auto toggle and allow users to disable it and dial in the ANC level themselves Anyway I 39 m hopeful that since I have the ear of someone at Sony we can solve the problem

I read about the auto ANC issue of the XM5 Recently I went to a store and testet both headphones back to back I also download the Sony app to take a look at the ANC settings

Yes the auto ANC optimization is always on regardless The app lets you toggle a few settings the Adaptive Sound Control where the headphones try to detect where you are and automatically switch between ANC and ambient sounds useless feature for me

Question About The Xm5 Auto Anc R Sonyheadphones Reddit

r SonyHeadphones on Reddit Genuine question For the people

The XM5 ANC is one of the best so you will not be disappointed anyway Regarding the auto ANC it cannot be turned off and constantly tries to adapt to the environment meaning that sometimes you may not get the full ANC power

I have been debating on getting the XM5 or waiting until the XM6 Do you guys think the XM6 will be much different from the 5 Replaced the Batteries of my Sony WF 1000XM4 and I recommend it to everyone

Until a firmware update removes auto ANC optimization the XM5s aren t usable in any practical sense That s my take at least which is echoed all over Reddit at the moment
