They are ok
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the sound quality but the bass seems to be lacking comps to cheaper quality earbuds. My biggest isssue is the ear tips. They completely fell apart in about a month and a half. Got aftermarket tips afterwards bc I couldn’t fine OEM at the time and they have done the same. Probably going to trade them in for a different pair.

Very good sound quality.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very nice sounding earbuds. They come with 4 different sized rubber ear plugs. The app for them is very good. There is sound presets along with an equalizer. Phone calls are clear with no distortion. The noise canceling is decent but could be better in my opinion. Overall sound quality is very good. I highly recommend these earbuds.

Great audio experience... mostly
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product. Passive hearing is a bit blasty when you first activate it. Battery life usually last longer than noted on packaging.

Great Earbuds!!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My first Sony earbuds were the WF1000XM3...then I upgraded to the WF1000XM4...now I've upgraded again to the WF1000XM5. So, if you see a pattern, then you're correct - these are really great overall earbuds. If you have the budget and are looking for one of the best earbuds, then I highly recommend giving these a try.
