Have had these since the xm3s they're great as usual. However this generation has a habit of connecting while in the case. Never had this with previous generations. Other than that they're great as usual.

These are hands down the best earbuds I have ever owed! I use them at work and at the gym. Also great for phone calls as well. The Sony smartphone app is great as well and easy to use. I hightly recommend these. They may vost more than others but the sound and build qualities completely make up for that.

Definitely an Upgrade from the xm4s. Good sound, smaller case, totally worth the upgrade in my books.
One more thing, during a call, the transition from phone to earphone is way faster than it's predecessor. You don't miss sentences in the conversation.

I had the model before these came out. Which were a little big in my ear. when the XM5 came out I immediately jumped on the opportunity to buy them. this line of headphones is the best quality you can get in a pair of Bluetooth earbuds. the quality and sound and quality and noise Cancellation is unmatched.

These are a solid pair of headsets — the sound quality is great but it lacks GPS locator that many other high-end wireless earbuds come with and I’ve had to replace them three or four times after almost a year of casual use.

Definitely an amazing pair of earbuds to use at all times, they stay where they're supposed to and sound great. Switched over from having a pair of Samsung Galaxy Buds+, and much prefer the tail-less buds. The battery life isn't the longest, at just over 6hrs for a single bud. But the case can recharge them a few times over. The range is insane. I've gone about twice the "max range" of bluetooth and still been connected.

Thisbis a perfect Upgrade coming from an Wf-1000xm4. The bass was reduce but is due of the physical design because it seals better. Also the ANC removes the underwater sensation and feels more silence. The seal
