Posted .Hi EdgarjM, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on the WF-1000XM5. We're glad to hear that you appreciate the features and design of the case. However, we sincerely apologize for any disappointment regarding the sound volume and battery life.
Your comments are invaluable to us as we continuously strive to enhance our products.
Regarding the battery life, consider the following factors:
- Features like the equalizer, DSEE Extreme, and noise canceling can significantly reduce battery life. For instance, using high-quality playback settings can consume more power.
- Ensure that the charging case is adequately charged and the earbuds are properly seated for charges.
- You can also perform a factory reset if you face persistent issues. Detailed instructions can be found here: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2963/v1/en/contents/TP1000783925.html

Posted .Hi Daniel, nice! We're glad you are enjoying our product. The WF1000XM5 features cutting-edge technology to deliver premium sound quality and the best noise-canceling performance on the market. Noise reduction algorithms developed with AI machine learning suppress ambient noise and ensure the person on the other end of the phone can hear your voice clearly even in noisy situations. For total convenience, the WF1000XM5 can be paired with two Bluetooth devices simultaneously so, when a call comes in, your headphones can automatically connect to the right one. With an IPX4 water resistance rating, splashes and sweat won’t stop these headphones – so you can keep moving to the music. Thank you for choosing Sony! ~Earl

Definitely water resistant
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well, I almost never write a review when something works like it advertises but; these just survived a trip thru the washing machine and work like day 1. Just a little spot drying and all good. Though if you're smaller of stature these may be too big for your ear lobes to stay in.

Posted .Hi ScottC,
That's quite a feat! While the WF-1000XM5s are water resistant, they're not waterproof. In the future, it's important to be cautious when handling your earbuds near water sources. We do have good information on how to care for the headphones here:
