Review on Sony WH-1000XM5 wireless headphones, silver by Bhavin Patel ᠌

Sound. No, it's not bad, but it's not the same as the XM4. It is drier and monitorier, somewhat reminiscent of the HD450. At the same time, when you put on the headphones for the first time, the feeling that the sound is kind of muffled, “like from a barrel”, does not leave, but over time you get used to it and generally listen with pleasure. LDAC cannot be used in the mode of connecting to two devices at the same time - why? The same Soundcore Q35 can do this, so why are headphones with a price tag three times higher - no ? Maybe later they will add firmware . The sound quality over the wire is autumn and very sad - in a fully pixelated mode, the resistance of the headphones is only 8 ohms, which is why the sound is very loud, booming, details disappear - it is impossible to listen. If you turn on the power of the headphones in wired mode, then the resistance rises to 40 ohms - in this case, you can already listen, but the sound is still worse than via bluetooth, which is not strange. Perhaps the problem is in the bundled wire, which, by the way, does not fall under the cost of the headphones at all - a thin, cheap cable without a braid and a headset. Why is that, you ask? A very strange solution with loose ear pads. That is, yes, they turn around, but not with the speakers out, not in, like most other headphones The case is huge - 1/2 backpack Bobby Hero Small kills. It’s a nitpick, but the Type-C cable in the kit made me laugh (its length is only 10 cm)
