The model provided more depth and more clarity than the WH-1000XM4, which made the listening experience more immersive.

The model, released in 2020, has dated features by now compared to the newer iterations of the headphones. But Sony's WH-1000X headphones have always been some of the best, and a five-year-old model could be better than some newer devices out there. </p>This article originally appeared on Engadget at
