The headphones come with an aux port on the left ear cup that is perfect for plugging in other audio devices. On the right ear cup there are controls for volume and power and the small door that is a MicroUSB port for charging. We like the fact that these headphones come with the Lightning connector however we're disappointed that they don't support USB-C.

2. Headphones Sony WH-1000XM5

The new model features the same great noise cancellation, but comes with four beamforming microphones for hands-free calling. One obvious improvement is the location awareness, which adjusts the ambient sound control settings depending on the location where you are. If you're at home, they may change to a less subtle noise cancelling level than when you're traveling to work. They can also bring in more outside audio to help you remain aware of your environment on walking around town.

Another feature is multipoint that lets you connect the headphones to two devices simultaneously. This can be a lifesaver when you want to listen to music on your laptop and make calls from your phone.

There's a drawback to this however: when you turn on multipoint, you lose the ability to use the high-quality Bluetooth codec LDAC.

The Sony WH1000XM5 features the same controls for touch as the WH1000XM4s. You can manage music playback, and make phone calls. Swipe forward and backward on the touchpad to skip tracks or back and forth to pause and resume playback. The right ear cup contains physical buttons for volume and power.

If you have an iPhone and you want to customize the headphones with Siri commands. You'll also have access to other features, such as a personal assistant and battery meter. Sony is also introducing voice prompts to guide users through the headphones' functions but I did find that they could be a little too tense for certain users.

The WH-1000XM5s' battery lifespan of 30 hours with noise cancellation on is similar to the previous model, while 40 hours without it is less than what competitors are offering. The headphones come with a soft bag that protects the headphones from scratches, dust and impact.
