Hi KenA,

We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback; we're happy to hear you find the WF-1000XM5 earbuds comfortable and that the noise cancellation is performing so well for your daily 8-9 hour use! Regarding the battery life, please note that features like ANC, DSEE Extreme, and high-quality codecs like LDAC can reduce the operating time, which is rated up to 8 hours with ANC on. To address the intermittent connection, please try navigating to the Sony | Headphones Connect app and changing the Bluetooth Connection Quality setting to Prioritize Stable Connection under the Sound tab, which often resolves minor dropouts. If the connection issue persists, a simple headset reset may be necessary: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2963/v1/en/contents/TP1000783924.html.


Thanks for choosing Sony.

Hi ihasbestbuy,

We are sorry to hear you're occasionally experiencing grainy audio with your WF-1000XM5 earbuds, as this is definitely not the intended experience. We appreciate you troubleshooting it by rebooting.

This symptom is sometimes related to an interference issue. Please try the following steps, which often resolve intermittent audio quality drops:

Disable DSEE Extreme: If you are using the Sony | Headphones Connect app, try turning off the DSEE Extreme feature to see if it stabilizes the connection and audio processing.

Prioritize "Stable Connection": In the Sony | Headphones Connect app, go to the Sound tab and set the Bluetooth Connection Quality to "Priority on Stable Connection" instead of "Priority on Sound Quality." This often prevents drops or static, especially in high-interference environments.

If the issue persists, please check for and install any available firmware updates via the app.

Thank you for your feedback.
Best regards,
Eliab
