    This has the best sound quality, however, I did not like the size and how hard it is to take it off the case. There simply is not enough grip to take it out of the charging case. You have to try it to understand what I am talking about.

      That's awesome, ColbyA! We're glad that you are impressed with its performance. 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! -Craig Sony_US

    These were OK. They didnt grip in my ear very well, and I did not like the smooth finish on the buds. Noise cancelling and audio quality was OK, but did not adequately block out the construction noises I work around.

    Noise Canceling Features Didn't Work

    Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I recently purchased these. They have a nice premium weight and feel. However, the earbuds did not fit well no matter what tips I used. Additionally, the noise-canceling features that I was looking forward to did not work as expected. I would not recommend these earbuds to others, as I believe there are better options available on the market in the same price range. It's essential to consider other options before investing in this pair of earbuds, as the overall experience can be frustrating and disappointing if the fitment and / or features do not meet your expectations.
