Overview: The Sony WF-1000X Truly Wireless Noise Cancelling
In-ear Headphones feature two independent ear buds with absolutely no connecting
wires or headband. You simply insert the earbuds, start your music, and leave
your phone in your pocket or purse. With Digital Noise Cancellation, Adaptive Sound Control, and
onboard controls, the headphones make it easy to get the sound you want from
your digital music files. The headphones include a Charging Case, USB charging cable,
and seven pairs of ear tips.
Truly Wireless Design: The WF-1000X includes left and right
ear buds that sit securely in your ears. The music playback controls are located
on the bottom of the right ear bud. You can answer an incoming call by pressing
the button on either ear bud. When using the Sony Headphones Connect app, you
can control many more functions and features on your device.
Supplied Ear Tips: The in-ear headphones come with seven
pairs of ear tips. The proper fit of the ear tips into your ear canals maximizes
the audio performance, and the noise cancellation system. Four sizes of long
hybrid silicone rubber ear tips are provided (large, medium, small, and
super-small). The slightly thicker triple-comfort ear tips provide a snug fit
for effective attenuation of ambient noise. The triple-comfort tips come in
three sizes (large, medium, and small). Two pairs of Fitting Supporters are also
included to help keep the ear buds in place. The Fitting Supporter's fin
conforms to the shape of the upper ridge of your ear for a secure fit.
Bluetooth/NFC: The WF-1000X has Bluetooth 4.1 for wireless listening from your
smartphone, tablet, or Bluetooth music player. Compatible profiles include A2DP, AVRCP, HFP, and HSP, with SBC
and AAC codecs. For NFC-enabled devices, you can easily pair to the headphones
by simply touching the device to the N-mark on the bottom of the charging case
when the ear buds are nearby. Bluetooth wireless range is approximately 30 feet.
Digital Noise Cancellation: The headphones are equipped with built-in
microphones on the sides of the ear buds that capture outside noise and send and
equal-but-opposite cancelling signal to the unit. You'll be able to hear more of
your music and less of the outside distractions.
Adaptive Sound Control: Sony's Adaptive Sound Control can detect your
activity and adjust the sound settings to you. When traveling, you can immerse
yourself in your music with the highest level of noise cancellation. If you're
walking, the noise cancellation adapts so you can stay aware of your
surroundings while listening to music. While waiting, such as in an airport or
train station, the noise cancellation is reduced so you can hear important
announcements. These settings can be customized to your personal tastes in the
Sony Headphones Connect app.
Sony Headphones Connect App: The Sony Headphones Connect app gives you
control over the sound of your headphones right on your smartphone or tablet. In
addition to Adaptive Sound Control (mentioned above), the app's Sound Position
Control lets you choose the direction from which you hear your music (Front,
Front Right, Front Left, Rear Right, or Rear Left). You can select from
available presets for the Equalizer, and control your music (play/pause, skip
forward/backward, fast forward/backward). The Sony Headphones Connect app is
compatible with iOS devices (iOS 9.0 or later) and Android devices (Android 4.4
and up).
Rechargeable Battery: The Sony WF-1000X in-ear headphones are equipped
with 3.7-volt Lithium-Ion rechargeable batteries in each ear bud to power the Bluetooth and ANC
functions. The ear bud batteries are charged in the included charging case,
which includes it own rechargeable battery. The ear buds cannot be charged
without the case. The ear buds require approximately 1.5 hours to fully charge,
while the case takes about 3 hours. The batteries charge via USB using the
included Micro USB cable. With a fully charged battery in the charging case, you
can charge the ear buds about 2 times. (See battery life estimates below in Specifications.)
