    Overall I like them, they have great sound and noise cancelling ambient noise etc. however,, they have a really poor fit, they barely stay in my ears despite changing the size of the tips. they need some securing or slim them down like the galaxy buds. App is bad.

      Hi Alex, Thank you for the feedback on your experience with your Sony WF1000XM5. While we're glad you like the great sound quality and noise canceling feature, we regret to hear that these earbuds didn't fit great on you. We understand that finding the perfect fit can vary from person to person. We also recommend experimenting with the positioning to achieve a snug fit. If you've already tried changing the eartips to another size and you're still having issues with fit, we suggest trying out third-party eartips. Hope this helps and thanks for choosing Sony! -Sam Sony_US

      Hi JeffreyH, we're glad you like the sound quality of our product. We're sorry to hear that you had returned your Sony unit because of the fit. It is recommended changing 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.

      We have our Support team that is always happy to assist. You may email anytime us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details: Name: Username: Model Number: Issue: Telephone Number:

      We hope you consider Sony again. ~Earl Sony_US

      Hi crussell, we're glad you love our product! The WF1000XM5 features cutting-edge technology to deliver premium sound quality and the best noise-canceling performance on the market.

For total convenience, the WF1000XM5 can be paired with two Bluetooth devices simultaneously so, when a call comes in, your headphones can automatically connect to the right one. With an IPX4 water resistance rating, splashes and sweat won’t stop these headphones – so you can keep moving to the music. Thank you for choosing Sony! ~Earl Sony_US

    Will not be total noise cancelling but very good earbud nonetheless. Like the app to set up the pods and control sound settings. Adaptive sound control is great as well and will let ambient noises around you in. When I’m on a moving vehicle and resting my head agains the vehicle frame all noise comes in through the earbuds, think the vibrations disrupts the adaptive sound control
