[Seconds] Sony WF-1000XM5 Wireless Noise Cancelling Earbuds (Silver/Black) $211.65 (Targeted $190.48) Del (RRP $329) @ Sony eBay

510
SONYTVSEP15TECHYRETECH

Not an all time low but a great price on probably the best ear buds on the market. Factory Sony seconds are quite often actually brand new with box damage or something else (Sold as seconds to avoid upsetting major retailers). Comes with a 1 year warranty.

Use SONYTVSEP15 for $211.65. If you were targeted, stack with code TECHY or RETECH for $190.48.

I believe black is available also.

Silver Sold Out

I'm buying a second pair in case I lose my current pair (*I've had a few heart attacks!) LOL

    Good find, ordered a pair, my XM4 set are dying.

      I just use a sleep mask that has Bluetooth speakers built in. 30 bucks off aliexpress

          That setup would be very awkward for me when I'm mowing the lawn, but your perspective has been noted.

    Great ANC, ok battery, good but not great sound.
    I have JBL's in my ears from yesterday's deal, with the foam tips they are great.
    Not for everyone, case is huge.

    • I also have the Sennheiser momentum 2 earbuds and after some EQ tweaking the sound quality is nearly as good, the noise cancelling superior and the battery life smashes the Sennheiser buds. At this price it's a no brainer.

    • I got a set of these when they first launched with the return guarantee and found them pretty mediocre.

      As you said, great ANC but sound was average (not even in the same universe as a 15yr old 3.5mm Klipsch pair for $80). I also found the controls incredibly unintuitive. In the end I went back to Edifier NB2 for ~$70, more bass, but slightly worse overall sound and ANC, but otherwise a much better experience even if they’d been the same price.

    • Is there some setting to tweak ANC, mine is absolutely horrendous. Worse sound than xm4.

      • There are some settings but nothing significant. You could try reset them and make sure they're up to date.

        Think the stock silicon tips aren't very good, or maybe the seal just isn't right for you. Try the included foam ones or get 3rd party tips. The XM4 stock tips are foam and foam tips in general are better for ANC.
        Also the app has a setting to switch between silicon and foam tips which adjusts the tuning/ANC.

    I ordered these the other day but the quantity was too low to post. I was able to combine with TECHY and got them down to 190.48. Worth a try!

      Thanks!

        It's RETECH not TECHY and that makes it $190.48

        • Thanks, my bad!

        • Techy worked for me and RETECH didn't??

          • +1

            @Homerlovesbeer: Didn't for me, but the RETECH option for an extra 10%. I have ebay plus, maybe it differs?

        • TECHY not RETECH worked for me.

      I ordered these the other day but the quantity was too low to post. I was able to combine with TECHY and got them down to 190.48. Worth a try!

      Thanks - That prompted me to try a few different codes.

      In the end it came down to $181.65 using code: PL30S

  • these or the AKG n9 JB deal? same price

    • N9s are pretty good headphones and these are pretty good earbuds. I got the N9 since I have plenty earbuds.

    Neither TECHY or RETECH works for me - not sure why?

      same here… :(

    How is the experience with calls? I have been trying to find a headset that is suitable for working from home that will not pick up background noise especially when my child is at home.

    • +1

      In my experience it's not terrible, works pretty decently. People can hear you which is what's important. The other party sounds really good.

    • I got them and they are no good for calls in noisier environments like a busy street or a cafe. It's a known weakness of these buds. Plenty of people complaining on reddit.

  • OOS :(

      Black still showing in stock for me?

      • +1

        Oh yep my bad, thanks - got the black

  • damn just clicked on this deal and expired.

    great deal though!

    • Black in stock? Why is this deal expired?

      • Yeah they are showing stock again so you can log a report saying they're available again, I did one just now

  • Fwiw I've bought these twice and both times came in refurb boxes.

    • I find when its super cheap it will be refurbished returns. When its a little higher around the $240 range, you will get the original packaging and its usually a cosmetic blemish.

      • These are $249 before the codes are applied so what does this mean?

        • When on sale, like now, with a code, it is likely to be refurb. You might get lucky and get a second.

          When it's not on sale, that is no code or discount and you are actually paying around the $240 mark, it will likley be a second (not used).

          Hope that clears it up. This is my experience. I've bought them loads of times

        • This or wait for EarPods 3 pro which is coming out this month?

  • +1

    FYI: Black still seems to be available and Smoky Pink is available for $10 more, starting price at $259.00 (before discount applied).

    • Thanks, black were out of stock, but got some pink ones for 215.

  • Lost my ones a few times but luckily I have an air tag and a moto tag on them to track them down with ease which are attached to a soft rubber case.

  • Sony eBay is great.

  • Good to see this deal, my friend's earbuds just broke, time to buy some for his birthday.

  • How do these compare to my soundcore a20i's :P

  • Anyone know how to reset to a new case?

  • I got these in the last deal and was very very disappointed with the sound quality which is the main priority for me and I have been into audio for 40+ years , I just don't understand the hype , now they are just collecting dust , I tried lots of different foam and rubber tips with very little improvement in the sound also purchased and downloaded wavelet but just could not get them to sound good , waste of money for me , my moto buds sound way way better in fact they blew me away with how good their bass response is and I got them for free with my phone which I also purchased from a deal on here.
