SONY WI-1000XM2 Wireless Noise Cancelling In-ear Neckband Headphones

Only music. Nothing else.

Discover a world of uncompromising silence where you can enjoy music without noise or distraction in all-day comfort. Industry-leading noise cancellation, superior sound quality and the comfort of an angled earphone design take listening to a whole new level.

Industry-leading noise cancellation

The noise cancelling technology in the WI-1000XM2 is the most advanced ever in wireless neckband headphones, thanks to the power of our HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN1. So you can lose yourself completely in your music.

Dual Noise Sensor Technology

Dual microphones – one feed-forward and one feed-back – on the surface of the headphones catch more of the ambient sounds of your surroundings, whether it’s in-flight noise, city traffic or office chatter.

HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN1

Having caught the ambient sound, the dedicated HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN1 gets to work. It not only cancels significantly more noise across almost all frequencies but also uses less power.

Atmospheric Pressure Optimizing

Our noise cancelling is made to fly with Atmospheric Pressure Optimizing. Enjoy in-flight cinema by wired operation with headphone cable and relax with your favorite music, with noise cancelling optimized for high altitude. 

Exceptional sound quality

Packed with advanced audio technology, the WI-1000XM2 wireless noise cancelling headphones not only deliver noise-free listening but breathtaking sound quality.

HD Hybrid Driver System

Sound is optimized across the frequencies with the HD Hybrid Driver System. The 9mm dynamic driver, custom-designed for the WI-1000XM2, provides deep bass and clear mids, while the matched Balanced Armature driver reproduces delicate, natural high tones.

The power your music deserves

The multi-talented HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN1 combines Digital Noise Cancelling, 32bit Audio Signal Processing, and a Digital-to-Analog converter with headphone amplifier. The result? Stunningly clear sound.

Fits securely in the ear

Designed to fit securely in the ear and stay there comfortably, these lightweight headphones with flexible silicon neckband are made for all-day wearing, wherever you go, whatever you do. Easily store them in a bag or case while travelling.

Angled earphone design

With an angled shape, the earphones sit deeper and more securely in the ear for a stable, comfortable fit. Even when walking around, they won’t slip out unexpectedly.

Up to 10 hours of listening

No need to worry about battery life on the go. With up to 10 hours of battery life, the music just keeps on playing.

Up to 80 minutes on quick charge

If your headphones are running low on power, a 10-minute quick charge gives you up to 80 minutes of play time.

Automatically adjusts to whatever you do

The Sony | Headphones Connect app offers Adaptive Sound Control, a smart function that automatically detects what you’re up to – for example, travelling, walking, or waiting – then adjusts ambient sound settings to suit the situation. You can also customize the settings to your preferences.

Be in control of your listening

With the Sony | Headphones Connect app, Ambient Sound Control lets you adjust the volume of background sound and gives you the option to allow voices alone to be heard. Meanwhile the Equalizer lets you customize sound levels to suit your music.
