Hi CharlesL, thank you for sharing your experience—losing an earbud during a run can be very frustrating, especially when you’re unable to notice right away due to continuous playback on the other side. We understand how important it is to maintain a complete set for the best listening experience.

Your feedback is greatly appreciated as we strive to enhance the design and features of our earbuds. However, it's important to note that the loss of an earbud is generally not included under the standard warranty or repair policies, which primarily address manufacturing defects and technical issues. In the event of a lost earbud, the standard course of action is to purchase a replacement. We suggest contacting Sony Support for further assistance. Our support team can help clarify your options and, when feasible, guide you in acquiring a replacement to ensure you can continue enjoying your listening experience.

If you require assistance with this process or wish to have a further discussion, please reach out to our customer support team directly. They will be more than happy to guide you through the next steps.

Hi TanyaC,
Thanks for being so honest about your experience with the WF-1000XM5 earbuds.
It's fantastic to hear you're loving the sound quality for music. But we totally get how frustrating it is when the call quality doesn't keep up in those noisy spots.

Here are a few tips and settings you can check that might improve your call quality in those loud environments:

1) Try to make sure the earbuds have a snug fit using the right-sized eartips.
You can check this by opening the Sony | Sound Connect App, going to the System tab, and running the "Optimal Earbud Tips" test. Make sure the app confirms a good air-tight seal in both ears, and if it doesn't, you should try a different size foam tip from the package.

If you'd like a little more detail; with some videos to walk you through it, just click the link here:

2) Turning off the "Capture Voice During a Phone Call" setting in the Sound Connect App (found under the System tab) can help improve call clarity in loud environments.

3) Make sure your earbuds and the Sound Connect App are running the latest firmware versions.

Give those a shot!

We appreciate your review of our Sony product and apologize for your experience.
Sincerely,
Estefany

Thank you for your valuable feedback, Adrian.

We're so glad to hear that you find the WF-1000XM5 earbuds "pretty good" and more refined than the previous model. We designed them with several enhancements, including a more compact size and improved audio processing, to provide a premium listening experience.

We understand your perspective on the upgrade from the WF-1000XM4. We appreciate your honest insight, as feedback like this helps us understand what is most important to our customers.

Thank you again for your review and for being a Sony customer.

Best regards, Gus, Sony Social Media Team

Hi Acw00, Thank you for your feedback on the WF-1000XM5. We appreciate your detailed review and are sorry to hear about the issues you've encountered.
Regarding the fit of the earbuds, we understand that comfort and secure fit are crucial. If you've already tried different sizes and types of ear tips and you continue to experience discomfort, please reach out to our support team for further assistance.

For the noise-canceling feature, we acknowledge that it should ideally activate automatically when using a single earbud. We will pass on your feedback to our development team.

The concern about the earbuds falling out of the case is noted. We will look into the magnet strength and case design to ensure the earbuds remain secure during everyday use.

We're glad to hear that you are satisfied with the battery life, connectivity, and sound quality of these earbuds.

Thank you for choosing Sony. If you have any further questions or need assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our support team through this link: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/service?language=en_US.
