Unfortunately uncomfortable
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wonderful sound quality and amazing NC. However, they are quite uncomfortable. Its no dofferent than the mx4. If youre going tonmake a product for the passes, switch to a material that is plyable and an earbud shape that can conform to most ears. The bose qc 2 are amazingly comfortable. But their connectivity is atrocious.

Posted .Wonderful, Wonderbread26! The new Sony XM5 wireless earbuds are truly amazing when it comes to noise canceling. The WF-1000XM5 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! -Craig

Overpriced.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price, the earbuds are just OK. The noise cancelling function is not as good as on the "big" headphones. And, I had to buy generic foam tips to replace original ones, because the foam was not expanding well. Sound is good, but not better than air pods pro. Overall, I think this item is too expensive for what it is.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Love love love

Posted .Hi EricM,
We are sorry to hear that the Noise Cancelling feature on your WF-1000XM5 earbuds is activating at inconvenient times, as this is definitely not the intended experience. This behavior is most often caused by the Adaptive Sound Control feature, which automatically changes the Noise Cancelling settings based on your activity (like walking or staying put); we recommend turning this feature off within the Sony | Headphones Connect App for a consistent experience. Additionally, check the app's settings to ensure the Speak-to-Chat function is disabled, as this temporarily pauses Noise Cancelling when you start talking.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards,
Eliab

Sony wireless “in ear” headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphones are great. However, this is for all noise cancelling headphones, the technology is simply not there yet. No headphones can provide complete noise cancellation.
