We're here to help. If you haven't already, we recommend that you try the alternative eartip sizes included in the box.

About the Bluetooth issues, here are some troubleshooting steps that may help resolve the problem:

- Set the earbuds Bluetooth connection mode to "Priority on stable connection" on the Sound Connect app.
- If possible, connect your earbuds to a different smartphone or Bluetooth device to see if the issue persists. This can help determine if the problem lies with the earbuds or the initial device.
- Initialize the earbuds and try reconnecting them to your device. Find the steps here: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2963/v1/en/contents/TP1000783925.html

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.
