Baseus Inspire XH1 Review: Budget ANC cans trying to play in the big league

★★★★★ ★★★★★

After using the Sony 1000X THE COLLEXION as my main headphones, my takeaway is pretty clear: they’re a luxury spin on Sony’s already strong WH series, not a full technical leap.

★★★★★ ★★★★★

The Sony WH-1000XM5S are strong all-round wireless headphones with very good noise cancelling, comfortable design, and a lot of smart features that genuinely help in daily use.
