Google Assistant and Sony XM5 retail packaging confirm worse battery life than initially anticipated.

The sleek new design of the upcoming Sony XM5s was showcased last week in leaked photographs that appeared to be legitimate, coupled with information indicating that the battery life of these new headphones will be up to 40 hours. Even more recent retail package leaks indicate the opposite.

The Sony WH-1000XM5s are surrounded by many unanswered questions, such as what kind of drivers these new ANC headphones will have and how much the audio quality will improve over the XM4s. We initially got a look at the hardware and design that go with it last week. All things considered, these appear to be a remarkable development of Sony’s immensely popular wireless headphones, and we can’t help but feel a little excited.

Sony’s WH-1000XM5 retail packaging has recently surfaced in new photographs on Reddit , which both confirm and refute prior rumors and reveal a wealth of previously unreported information. The Sony XM5s was said to have a 40-hour battery life last week, which sounded like a significant advancement for the time being. Sony is claiming the same battery life as the XM4s, but only for 30 hours, based on the packaging visible in the photographs.

Via Reddit While the battery life of the XM5 is somewhat disappointing, this examination of Sony’s official packaging verifies a few additional facts. One of these is the presence of Google Assistant, about which we previously wrote that it would probably remain the primary digital assistant in Sony’s cans. The 360 Reality Audio advertising, which is present on the XM4s as well, is another element to watch for. There aren’t much further specifics to gather in terms of addition to the verified design. Sony makes a superb job at concealing what is inside with its distinctive minimalist package.

Overall, Sony’s WH-1000XM5s release is unquestionably imminent, so we won’t have to wait long for the complete set of characteristics to be revealed. Regarding battery life, we were a touch underwhelmed, but 30 hours is still a respectable performance and can get you through several workdays of nonstop listening.
