Have yourself a very techy Christmas, with these amazing products from Sony
Experience the best Christmas hits (or block them out!) with powerful wireless noise cancelling headphones
Sony’s stylish and industry-leading headphones make the perfect gift for loved ones this year, with offerings to keep the whole family happy. The brand new and truly wireless WF-1000XM3 in-ear buds offer premium, high-quality sound so listeners can enjoy their favourite Christmas songs.
The headphones feature the HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN1e, that is an audiophile’s dream, accomplishing stunning sound with minimal distortion. The truly wireless design also allows users to move freely without the nuisance of getting tangled in wires, and are specifically designed for improved comfort and stability in the ear – perfect for the Christmas commute. They will also keep you covered for those long car journeys to see family members.
If classic over-ear headphones are more your style, then look no further than Sony’s award-winning WH-1000XM3 headphones, delivering exceptional performance in a timeless design. Whether you’re loving the festive hits or you’d rather not listen to the same Christmas album for the tenth time (!), the WH-1000XM3 have the ability to cancel out background noise completely – allowing the user to fully immerse themselves in their music. With everyone trying out their new gifts on Christmas day there’s no need to part with your beloved WH-1000XM3, as Sony’s unique Quick Attention mode allows users to communicate without removing them, simply by holding their hand next to the right ear, whilst Adaptive Sound Control automatically adjusts ambient sound to your surroundings.
Sony has also recently announced its brand new WI-1000XM2, which you can pre-order this festive season. The stable fitting structure with an angled earphone design helps prevent ambient noise from entering the ear while the Dual Noise Sensor technology catches any sound. Combined with industry leading noise cancellation, thanks to the newly-developed HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN1, it provides a new level of silence.
After something to please a fitness fanatic? Then offer them the perfect workout companion with the WF-SP900 headphones. Not only do these headphones have truly wireless connection and 4GB of storage, the waterproof design[1] means you can take your music anywhere – even in the pool or the ocean!
For those that are looking to add a bit of spice to their holiday wardrobe, then you’re in luck with the bold new colour options for the h.ear WH-H910N overband headphones and NW-A105 Walkman®. Stand out from the crowd with five colour designs to choose from — red, black, ash green, orange or blue — and you can mix or match your headphones and Walkman® to showcase your style to the world.

The NW-A105 also features a vintage cassette tape user interface and screensaver as an ode to the iconic original 1979 Walkman®, giving the impression you’re actually playing a cassette. Talking of the classic original Walkman®, for those friends and family members who love the retro style, you’ll be pleased to know there has been a release of the NW-A100TPS Walkman® celebrating the original product’s 40th anniversary. This ultimate Christmas gift comes in a specially designed box, but do be quick to buy as it is limited-edition! Both devices offer 26 hours battery life ensuring, that this little gadget makes you look cool, funky and of course classic.
