Hi Huhh,

Thanks for your comment. While we are pleased to know that you like our WF-1000XM5, and that you're satisfied with its amazing sound quality and superb companion app (Sony | Headphones Connect app), we are really sorry if the design of the earbuds didn't live up to your expectations and that they had to be returned.

Hi TanyaC,
Thanks for being so honest about your experience with the WF-1000XM5 earbuds.
It's fantastic to hear you're loving the sound quality for music. But we totally get how frustrating it is when the call quality doesn't keep up in those noisy spots.

Here are a few tips and settings you can check that might improve your call quality in those loud environments:

1) Try to make sure the earbuds have a snug fit using the right-sized eartips.
You can check this by opening the Sony | Sound Connect App, going to the System tab, and running the "Optimal Earbud Tips" test. Make sure the app confirms a good air-tight seal in both ears, and if it doesn't, you should try a different size foam tip from the package.

If you'd like a little more detail; with some videos to walk you through it, just click the link here:

2) Turning off the "Capture Voice During a Phone Call" setting in the Sound Connect App (found under the System tab) can help improve call clarity in loud environments.

3) Make sure your earbuds and the Sound Connect App are running the latest firmware versions.

Give those a shot!

We appreciate your review of our Sony product and apologize for your experience.
Sincerely,
Estefany

Thanks for your review, GloriaL.

It's great to hear that the sound quality is appreciated! The WF-1000XM5 is known for its exceptional audio performance, which enhances the listening experience.

For the issues with connectivity and navigating the Sound Connect app. This situation can prevent them from easily switching to a paired device. In such cases, it is often recommended to adjust the Bluetooth settings on the device or manually switch connections through the device’s Bluetooth settings menu.

Additionally, ensuring that the Sound Connect app is updated to the latest version can help resolve functionality issues. It's advisable to check for updates and, if required, initialize the headphones after the update.

If persistent issues occur, switching the connection from LE Audio to Classic Audio mode in the Sound Connect app may resolve some of the problems experienced with call connectivity or app linking.

If these steps do not improve the situation, further troubleshooting or contacting customer support may be necessary.
