Amazing headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I consider myself an audio file. I spend a lot of money on audio. I was very skeptical about buying these headphones. Typically I buy beats / Apple products Just because they pair well and are easy to use But don’t always have the best sound. I did a lot of research on these headphones and read a lot of good reviews and gave them a shot. Now that I’ve had them for a few weeks, they are my headphones and I think they are absolutely amazing and worth every penny I spent. They’re very easy to set up. The equalizer is very easy to use.

Best earbuds I've purchased
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best sound quality I have had with earbuds. Setup was easy, the buds are comfortable. I use them mostly in the gym and on runs and they stay out and are comfortable. They are pricey but worth it.

Sony's best
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very nice product, you can feel the quality. Also great specs like the noise cancellation for true wireless earbuds. Ive had a couple different wireless earbuds from Samsung, google and apple but this are the best ones I've tried so far.

Great sound, uncomfortable fit
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound was honestly amazing! But the noise canceling and comfort of the headphones made them 3-4 stars to me. The headphones were very uncomfortable to wear after a long periods of time or if you fall asleep on them (like on a plane). Compared to the AirPods they AirPods for me have a better fit and noise canceling. For sound though it definitely goes to the Sony. It may be because I have smaller ears so the more average ear may have better luck with fit and noise canceling.

Posted .Hi Carolina, Thanks for the feedback! We're glad that you like the sound quality. We recommend trying different ear tip sizes and experimenting with the positioning to achieve a snug fit. You can 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. Please follow this link for more details:

They are smaller than You might think !!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.EveryThing about these WF1000xm5's is very well done. There is no option, tweaking, or setting that was not appreciated !!! Only one slight issue: They are way smaller than You would think. Easy to drop when handling them in and out, of your ears or the charging case. I repeat: EveryThing else about these Buds is Industry Leading and ahead of the competition. Just go ahead and purchase them, You will not be sorry.

Good But Not For Me
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good sound quality, but I don't like the feel in my ears. Feels like I have earplugs in. Bose are WAY more comfortable and just as secure. These earbuds are also VERY slippery and hard to get ahold of while in the case.

The best so far
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've tried almost every wireless earbuds from apple, LG, Sony, Jbl, LG, anker, etc and these are simply the best and the only pair honestly worth over $100. The sound quality is similar to wired earbuds in the 250-400$ range, they can connect to any 2 devices at a time (not just Apple or just Android or just pc) so you can hear your phone and pc without having to reconnect to Bluetooth, the noise canceling is good. The only real issue is that the foam tips it comes with are too rubbery and chafe my inner ear canal where they sit. I got comply foam tips instead and now these earbuds are pretty much perfect to me
