Hi Derose,

Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the WF1000XM5. We're glad that you like the sound quality of the headphones. Your feedback about the glossy design, charging case, and fit is greatly appreciated.

For optimum fit and comfort, make sure that you are wearing the headphones properly. Put the headset unit with the (left) mark into your left ear and the headset unit with the (right) mark into your right ear. The left headset unit has a tactile dot. Adjust the fit of the headset to your ears.
Twist the headset unit to fit it snugly into the ear canal, and adjust the positioning of the headset unit until it fits comfortably. Wait for about 10 seconds for the earbud tip shape to stabilize.

You may also find these steps helpful:

-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.

Hint: The function that determines the optimal earbud tips for you measures the air-tightness of the earbud tips and determines whether or not the headset units are being worn in your ears correctly. Select a size that fits comfortably.

Hope this helps. In case you need further assistance, please email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details:

Hi Drizzly,

We are very sorry to hear that your charging case has stopped responding. We understand how disappointing this is, especially when you have only owned them for a month. Before considering a return or replacement, please try the following troubleshooting steps to see if we can restore the connection:

1. Please ensure you are using the original Sony USB-C cable provided in the box.

2. Connect it to a USB AC adaptor capable of supplying an output current of 0.5 A (500 mA) or more.

3. Leave the case plugged in for at least 2 hours. Even if the LED stays dormant initially, it may eventually turn on once it reaches a minimum threshold.

4. If the earbuds are not "detecting" the case, it is often due to a buildup of microscopic skin oils or dust on the charging interface. Use a dry cotton swab or a soft cloth to gently clean the gold contact pins inside the charging case and the corresponding contact points on the earbuds.

If the hardware is clean but the issue persists, please attempt the following:

Reset the headset: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2963/v1/en/contents/TP1000783924.html

Factory Reset the headset: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2963/v1/en/contents/TP1000783925.html

If these steps do not resolve the issue. Please contact our technical support team for personalized assistance:

Hello MarkT,

Thank you for considering Sony products.

We apologize for the inconvenience you’re experiencing with the noise canceling and ambient sound modes switching unexpectedly on your WF-1000XM5 earbuds, as well as the issue with “Hey Siri” on iOS. We understand how frustrating this can be and want to help you resolve these problems.

To address these concerns, we recommend the following steps:

Firmware Update to Version 6.1.0: Installing the latest software can improve performance and functionality. You can find detailed instructions here: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/wireless-headphones-bluetooth-headphones/wf-1000xm5/software/00296561

Reset the Headset: This clears temporary bugs without deleting pairing information. Instructions are available here: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2963/v1/en/contents/TP1000783924.html

Initialize (Factory Reset): If resetting doesn’t help, a factory reset may be necessary. Please note this will erase all pairing information. Instructions can be found here: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2963/v1/en/contents/TP1000783925.html

After these steps, please follow the instructions to activate the voice assist function (Siri) here: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2963/v1/en/contents/TP1000781979.html?search=siri

Additionally, we suggest disabling Adaptive Sound Control, as this feature automatically switches between noise canceling and ambient sound based on your activity or location, which might cause the mode flipping. Details on how to disable this feature are here: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00229328

If the issues persist, our dedicated support team is ready to assist you with advanced troubleshooting. You can reach them through this link: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=headphones
