The Sony WF-1000XM5 launch appears to be just around the corner. We have already covered a leak which revealed some of its key specifications. And now, a certification sighting has further hinted at its imminent release.
The latest sighting of the Japanese tech
giant’s flagship grade truly wireless earbuds was on the Wireless Power
Consortium. Previously, the device was even spotted on the FCC certification
website and even had its design leaked a couple of months prior. The latest certification
has confirmed that the upcoming WF-1000XM5 will feature Qi wireless charging
with up to 2W wireless charging support, similar to its predecessor. It even
revealed that the device carries the model number Y2963.
Based on previous leaks, the flagship
grade earbuds are expected to feature a design similar to the WF-1000XM4 model.
However, each earbuds will weigh just 5.9 grams, which is lower than the 7.3
grams of the XM4. Furthermore, a previous report has hinted that the Xm5 will
offer up to 24 hours of audio playback when paired with a charging case. Rumors
have claimed that just 3 minutes of charging can deliver around 1 hour of
playback.
Unfortunately, finer details regarding
these earbuds are still unclear. But the Sony WF-1000XM5 is previously believed
to launch sometime later this month or possibly even in August 2023. We can
expect these earbuds to offer top notch features like multi point connectivity
and ANC (Active Noise Cancellation).
