    Definitely an upgrade from the prior model. Much smaller which is great. The case is also smaller which is also good. Both were too big before. Easier controls and better options for sound management.

      Hi BBall, Great! Thank you for upgrading to your new Sony WF1000XM5! We're glad you appreciate the XM5's more compact design, intuitive controls, and sound adjustment options to fit your preference. The WF1000XM5 features cutting-edge technology to deliver premium sound quality and the best noise-canceling performance on the market. Noise reduction algorithms developed with AI machine learning suppress ambient noise and ensure the person on the other end of the phone can hear your voice clearly even in noisy situations. For total convenience, the WF-1000XM5 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! -Sam Sony_US

    Excellent product, noise cancellation is slightly improved from the previous xm4's. I'm not a fan of the coating they used compared to the xm4's, although that may be more of a personal preference.

    Great earbuds except for the fact that you can’t really track them on IPhone and have to directly get an entire accessory just to find them. This all leads to the fact that they are expensive, which you would think they would have a good way to track them.
