Thank you for sharing your fantastic review, Case!

We are absolutely thrilled to hear that the WF-1000XM5 earbuds are a "perfect fit" for you and that you find them so much better! The fit and comfort were key design goals for this model, and it's incredibly rewarding to know that the efforts to make them smaller and include multiple sizes of our noise-isolating foam tips are delivering a superior wearing experience.

Thank you again for choosing Sony!

Thank you for sharing your feedback on the WF-1000XM5, GooberBooger84. We are very glad to hear that you find them to be great and that you are impressed with the overall quality of the sound they produce.

We understand your point about the bass not being as "punchy" as you would have liked. We designed the WF-1000XM5 to deliver a balanced and accurate sound signature across the entire frequency range, aiming for clarity and detail. However, we also know that bass preference is a very personal aspect of listening. If you haven't already, you might find that adjusting the equalizer (EQ) settings within the Sony | Headphones Connect app allows you to customize the sound and boost the bass to your liking.

We truly appreciate your detailed and honest review. Your insights are invaluable as we continue to refine and improve our audio products. Thank you for being a Sony customer.

Best regards,

Gus

Hi Edwin,

Thank you for this excellent review! We are pleased to hear you are experiencing the stunning sound we engineered into the WF-1000XM5. It's great to know that the low-end is deep and clear, achieving that perfect balance where the bass is powerful without being muddy or overpowering the treble. We appreciate you highlighting the meticulous audio tuning!

Thanks for choosing Sony, and enjoy your pristine listening experience!

Regards,
Dominick

Hi NicholasP,

Thanks for your review of the WF-1000XM5 earbuds, it's fantastic to hear you're enjoying them!

We understand your desire to connect to more than two devices simultaneously, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. The WF-1000XM5 earbuds are designed with a multipoint connection feature that allows them to be connected to two devices at the same time. This is a great feature for switching seamlessly between a phone and a computer, for example.

While we recognize that many users would benefit from connecting to more than two devices, this is a limitation of the current Bluetooth technology used in the earbuds. We are always working to improve our products and features, and we will be sure to pass your feedback on to our engineering team for future consideration.

Thanks for choosing Sony!

Sincerely,
Jenn | Sony Social Media Team

We designed these earbuds to provide a truly immersive and spatial audio experience, and your feedback is a wonderful validation of that effort.

Thank you again for choosing Sony to elevate your daily listening experience!
