Some pieces are metal, but key components are low-quality plastic. Mine failed in less than a year of normal use and Sony would not provide repairs, refunds, or refurbishment despite it being covered under the 1-year limited warranty.

At Sony, we are dedicated to creating headphones that not only uphold the highest quality standards but also enhance your listening experience. Every detail of our design process is meticulously considered, with a strong emphasis on both durability and functionality. You can enjoy a personal audio experience free of distraction thanks to Sony's processor and microphone combination. Even in noisy environments, Sony's Integrated Processor V1 lets the HD Noise Canceling Processor QN1 control eight different microphones to cancel out ambient noise, with the WH-1000XM5 improving on high and midrange frequency blocking. Then there's Sony's Auto NC Optimizer that automatically maximizes proper noise cancellation based on your wearing conditions and environment, such as taking atmospheric pressure into consideration.
