    Disappointment is the only feeling I have for these. They are a downgrade from the WF1000XM5. They are smaller but it feels like that came at a high cost. They don't want to stay connected to my phone, not completely dropping, but microdrops were they drop and re-connect super quick. Phone is in my pocket and wasn't an issue with the XM4s. They don't seat as well in the travel case and seem to auto-default to noise cancelling on just one of the two headphones no matter the setting i adjust on the app. Phone quality is good to great according to those i speak with while on them.

    Great sound and calll quality but uncomfortable unfortunately. Your results may vary! At least there’s a return window! They are uncomfortable to me in the same way the AirPod pros one and two are. So if you have comfort issues with those you will likely have the same here.

      Hi ZekkaryKendar,

      Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the WF1000XM5. We're glad that you like the sound and call quality of the headphones. Your feedback about its comfort is greatly appreciated.

      For optimum fit and comfort, make sure that you are wearing the headphones properly. Put the headset units into both ears. Put the headset unit with the (left) mark into your left ear and the headset unit with the (right) mark into your right ear. The left headset unit has a tactile dot. Adjust the fit of the headset to your ears. Twist the headset unit to fit it snugly into the ear canal, and adjust the positioning of the headset unit until it fits comfortably. Wait for about 10 seconds for the earbud tip shape to stabilize.

      Hint: If you feel earbud tips are difficult to put into your ears, change the size of earbud tips or squeeze earbud tips lightly before wearing the headset.

      You may also find these steps helpful:

      -Change the earbud tips to ones that fit more snugly in your ears. When changing the earbud tips, try the earbud tip sizes in order from the larger ones to the smaller ones. The most suitable size of the earbud tips for left and right ears may be different.
      -The “Sony | Headphones Connect” app will help you to determine which earbud tips suit you best to achieve the optimal noise canceling effect, sound quality, etc.
      -Wear the headset so that the earbud tip is comfortably situated as deep in the ear canal as possible.

      Hope this helps. In case you need further assistance, please email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details:

    Sound is good. Noise canceling is good. But th ear pieces makes the experienced almost not worth it. I still find myself using my airpod pros because they are so much more comfortable and the sound quality is hardly even distinguishable between the two.

      Thank you for your review of the Sony WF-1000XM5, Julio. We appreciate your positive remarks regarding the sound quality and noise-canceling features. However, we regret to hear that you find the ear pieces uncomfortable.

      Comfort is a crucial factor when it comes to headphones. It can sometimes take a little time to adjust to new earpieces, especially if you are accustomed to a different style. We suggest experimenting with the various sizes of ear tips included with the WF-1000XM5, as finding the right fit can greatly enhance comfort. If the provided tips do not suit your needs, consider exploring third-party alternatives specifically designed for improved comfort.

      We are dedicated to delivering high-quality products and value your feedback, as it plays a vital role in our ongoing improvement. If you continue to experience discomfort, please do not hesitate to reach out for further assistance. Thank you once again for your support and understanding.

      If you have any additional questions or require further help, please feel free to contact our support team directly.
      Thank you for choosing Sony!
