Awesome sound quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony always make the best quality products, though you won't enjoy them if you don't have big ear holes. And they might fall out when you talking or eating.

Posted .HI ChristianG,
We are glad you appreciate the quality of our products! We understand that comfort and fit are crucial for enjoying the WF-1000XM5. For the best seal and stability, please ensure you have tested all four sizes of the noise-isolating earbud tips, as a snug fit is essential for both noise cancellation and preventing movement while talking or eating.
Thanks for choosing Sony.

Fantastic noise canceling earbuds.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had these earbuds for several weeks and have been pleased with my purchase. I went to a concert the music was not my jam. I popped in the earbuds and had my own personal concert while the rest of my group enjoyed the music. The buds filtered out the sound fron the concert but not the feel from the base. It was unbelievable how well the noise canceling worked. I would recommend these earbuds if money is not a concern.

I've tried a number and these are my favorite.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had the previous model and liked those and these simply improved on a great set. I tried the Bose and disagree with those who say the ANC is better on Bose. I think the foam earpads add passive NC that puts this above other options including the Google Buds Pro with added foam pads. Sound quality is the best. I get feedback that the mic isnt the best but i live in NYC where noise is everywhere and everyone complains regardless of what earbuds im on.
