Best sounding but not the best fitting
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Honestly i love Sony and have been a fan of there products for well over 10 years, these are by far the best sounding earbuds ive had since the galaxy buds pro. Idk if its just the way my ears are but for some reason the right earbud doesn't stay in as much as my left one does.

Great Sony Ear buds
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There’s a lot of great technology built into these ear buds. Tap one to start and stop. Tap the other to switch from noise canceling to ambient sound. Wonderful sound quality and decent noise canceling. Not as good as over the ear headphones but good for earbuds. Main complaint is they don’t stay in your ears very well.

Buds battery uneven
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound is great, IMO better than WH1000XM6. Noise cancelling is insane. But just like the 4th gen I fear, one of the buds is already not aligning on battery life (10% difference) and likely going to go out rather soon. For the price, I want it to last at least 2 years....

Posted .Hi Edward,
Thanks for your feedback. We're glad to hear that you're so impressed with the sound quality and noise cancellation of the WF-1000XM5 earbuds, especially since you've used previous generations. It's a key feature that the HD Noise Canceling Processor QN2e works together with the Integrated Processor V2 to deliver our best-ever noise cancellation, which is what gives you that "insane" experience you mentioned.
We're sorry to hear about your concerns regarding the battery life disparity between the two earbuds. We understand your frustration, and we want you to have a product that lasts as long as you expect it to. We would recommend trying a "calibration" of the battery by fully discharging and then recharging the earbuds a few times. If the issue persists, please reach out to our customer support team at: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=headphones
Thanks for choosing Sony, have a nice day.

Sony Wf-1000xm5
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sony Wf-1000's are great the ambient sound/noise canceling is the best available and huge sound and bass upgrade compared to the Sony xm4's. U can listen to anything anytime anywhere while still being able to interact with the world around you. I highly recommend to anyone who works in a loud environment like myself to people who live with normal noise decimals on a daily basis these things are absolutely amazing.

Posted .Thank you for your review, Consumer.
We are sorry to hear that the WF-1000XM5 earbuds are not meeting your expectations regarding volume and bass, and that you are experiencing difficulty with them falling out of your ears. This is definitely not the comfortable, high-performance experience we intend to deliver.
The fit of earbuds is crucial for both comfort and audio performance, especially bass response and noise canceling effectiveness. We recommend trying the following:
Change Ear Tips: The WF-1000XM5 comes with multiple sizes of noise isolation earbud tips. Please experiment with the different sizes (L, M, S, and SS) to find the one that creates the tightest, most secure seal in your ear canal. A good seal is essential for maximizing bass and volume.
Check the App EQ: If you still desire more volume and bass, you can adjust the equalizer settings directly within the Sony | Headphones Connect app to customize the sound profile to your preference.
If you continue to experience discomfort or poor sound quality after trying different tips and EQ settings, please contact our support team directly. They can provide more personalized guidance to ensure you get the reliable performance and fit these earbuds are designed to deliver:
