Hello,
I lost charging cable and was wondering if there are other ways to charge.
There are mixed opinions on internet - some people suggest use wall charger. As I dont have my cable I cant do it.
Apart from bying a new cable from Sony is there alternative to connecting charging cable to computer?
Thanks for any advise.

  A Micro USB Cable should work to charge it.

  I mainly (almost always) charge my devices via wall charger. I don't really use the cable that came in the box.

  You can use charging cable from any (preferably reputable brand) of matching cable type.

  The WH-1000XM2 uses micro-USB cable

  Something like this.

  My 1000XM2 is not charging! Unfortunately the warranty just expired but still this is a Sony product and did not expect this. Every time I try to charge, the red light comes on and then dissapears. Why is this is happening.
