Hi Sumanth,

Amazing! We're glad that you are enjoying the sound quality, battery life, and charging case of the headphones. 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!

Hi Tastey,

We're delighted to hear that you appreciate the sound quality and noise cancellation of your WF-1000XM5 earbuds. However, we're sorry to learn that you're encountering charging issues and that some features aren't functioning as expected. Your feedback is extremely important to us and is very much appreciated. The WF-1000XM5 earbud headphones may fall out or feel uncomfortable during use if they are not worn properly or the earbud tips doesn't match the size of your ear canals. Check that you are wearing the headset properly in your ears.

We have a recommended way of wearing these earbud headphones to reduce discomfort. Please make sure to follow the guide from this link: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/wireless-headphones-bluetooth-headphones/wf-1000xm5/articles/00262839

For the Speak-to-Chat function, you can use the “Sony Sound Connect app" (formerly Sony Headphones Connect app) to switch between enabled/disabled, change the sensitivity of the automatic audio detection, and change the time until the Speak-to-Chat mode ends. The Speak-to-Chat mode activates when the WF-1000XM5 detects the speech of the person wearing the them, but in rare cases it may activate in response to vibrations caused by devices such as electric toothbrushes, electric massagers, and electric shavers, or by activities such as brushing your teeth, coughing, or humming. In cases where the Speak-to-Chat mode frequently activates by accident, set Speak-to-Chat to “L Sensitivity”.

If the earbuds do not charge, please visit this link to help resolve the issue: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00298367?utm_source=glean

Hi HusnuK,

Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the WF1000XM5. We're glad that you like the sound quality and battery life of the headphones. Your feedback about its fit is greatly appreciated. For optimum fit and comfort, make sure that you are wearing both earbuds properly. 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. If you feel it is difficult to put the earbud tips into your ears, squeeze the earbud tips lightly before wearing the headset. Adjust the fit of the headset units to your ears. Hold and rotate the headset unit with your thumb, index, and middle finger to adjust the headset to fit your ear. After putting the headset unit into your ear, hold the side of the headset unit with your fingers and slowly push the earbud tip into your ear canal. Check if there is a gap between the earbud tip and your ear canal because the earbud tip is not inserted all the way into your ear or the earbud tip is the wrong size.
