Sony whx5 headphone

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 WF-1000XM5 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! -Sam

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound if you can get the ear tips to fit, if not its a complete mess, the ANC doesn't work properly, then the tips love earwax, then the materials used for the construction of the headset aren't great, they feel like cheap $100 plastic, let them go on sale if your considering them, they are not worth the $300 dollar price tag

Posted .Hi carlos57,
Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the WF1000XM5. Your feedback about the design, fit, and noise canceling function is greatly appreciated.
If the size of the earbud tips does not match the size of your ear canals or the headset is not worn properly in your ears, tap operations or Speak-to-Chat speech detection may not work correctly, or you may not obtain the correct sound qualities, noise canceling effects, or call performance. If any of this is the case, try the following.
-Change the earbud tips to ones that fit more snugly in your ears. When changing the earbud tips, try the earbud tip sizes in order from the larger ones to the smaller ones. The most suitable size of the earbud tips for left and right ears may be different.
-The “Sony | Headphones Connect” app will help you to determine which earbud tips suit you best to achieve the optimal noise canceling effect, sound quality, etc.
-Check that you are wearing the headset properly in your ears. Wear the headset so that the earbud tip is comfortably situated as deep in the ear canal as possible. You may also find this link helpful:

Lacking bass , uncomfortable.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These earbuds may not be suitable for individuals who prefer a bass-heavy sound profile. Additionally, I experienced discomfort in my right ear during use, and on one occasion, the foam tip became lodged in my ear.
