  DAYJOY Wooden Case for Sony WF-1000XM5
  

  Premium pick

  Looking at the DAYJOY wooden case, it becomes evident that it is not your average WF-1000XM5 case. What makes it markedly different from most of its plastic or silicone-clad competition is that it is made of real wood. While it is an unusual choice of material, the fact that the case is not coming out of an assembly line (it’s handmade, too) gives it an old-world charm.

  WOFRO’s WF-10000XM5 silicone case may look similar to several other silicone case offerings available in the market. However, what sets it apart is its interesting, secure lock mechanism—a physical lock that prevents the case from accidentally opening during falls. This mechanism also prevents users from accidentally opening the case and the possibility of the earbuds falling out. A lanyard and a carabiner are included in the retail box.

Sony WF-1000XM5: Best cases that ensure optimal protection

Sony’s WF-1000XM5 earbuds cost a premium price. While they offer some incremental improvements over the WF-1000XM4, their durability is similar to their predecessor. So, protecting these expensive earbuds with quality cases is essential to ensure their longevity. Since the XM5s are a recent release, cases from more popular brands are not yet widely available, unlike cases for the WF-1000XM4. If you only trust cases from well-known brands, it may be best to wait a while. However, if you are open to investing in cases with good reviews that get the job done, there are a few options worth considering.

Our current favorites are cases made by LOPIE, especially those wrapped in a leather finish. This case has earned rave reviews from XM5 users worldwide and comes in various color and finish options. For those seeking something more affordable, Geiomoo’s silicone case, which retails for less than $10, makes for an excellent choice and is affordable enough to function as a stopgap protection option until you get hold of a case of your choice. You may also consider generic cases like the LTGEM Hard Case, compatible with the WF-1000XM4 and other famous earbuds.

There are a handful of quirky options as well, with the notable ones being the wooden case made by DAYJOY and the Nintendo JoyCon lookalike case made by Caseverse. Ultimately, which case you choose will depend on your personal preferences and budget, but we hope the detailed list above has helped narrow down your options.
