Posted .Hi NoahN,
You made the right choice! We're glad that you like the sound, call quality, and dedicated app (Sony Headphones Connect) of the headphones. Your feedback about the price is greatly appreciated.
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!

Best earphones out.
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing sound and very comfortable to wear. Noise canceling is some of the best I’ve experienced in earphones.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sounding headphones. Only downside is the ear tips that come with them hurt my ears. I found some others online and the problem was fixed. They sound good but aren't as comfortable as others I've worn. I personally have a mixed ipuon about them. On one hand they sound nice and on the toebt hand they aren't as comfortable as my Jabra elite pro 7s.

solid noise canceling but mid on apple devices
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.not good for my iphone, they say it’s compatible w apple but thas cap, u gotta download a buggy sony app to see the battery percentage. the earphones themselves r hecka good tho, the noise canceling is so good. it’s very hard to be aware of the earphone percentage and the case percentage since it’s annoying ash to keep on opening the sony app.

Posted .Hi Izaac, We're glad that you like the noise canceling function. Sony takes into consideration all feedback to improve the performance and quality of our products. You can also check the battery percentage even if you're not using the app. When the headset is connected to an iPhone or iPod touch over an HFP (Hands-free Profile) Bluetooth connection, it will show an icon that indicates the remaining battery charge of the headset on the screen of the iPhone or iPod touch. The remaining battery charge of the headset is also displayed on the widget of an iPhone or iPod touch running iOS 11 or later. For more details, refer to the operating instructions supplied with the iPhone or iPod touch. Ref: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2963/v1/en/contents/TP1000781966.html?search=battery
Hope this helps.

Good quality headphones, but not worth the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphones have good sound quality, and a lot of bonus features that allow you to customize your experience. But at the end of the day, they are headphones and bonus features can only add so much. For $100 less, there are headphones with similar sound quality and less connectivity problems. These would be 5 star headphones at $130 dollars, but they don’t give enough of a noticeable quality increase to be 5 stars at $230.

Android users should buy these.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty much satisfied with these earbuds. I had the Airpods, Bose and these. Out of the bunch, I would pick either the Aipods or Sony. If you have a android phone go with these and obviously an Apple would pair well with the Airpods. Noise canceling is ok. I do work in a loud environment and it would stuggle at times to keep the noise down. The sound from these are the best in my opinion. Sony did a good job on these but noise canceling could be better but its a thumbs up for me

Great Sound Quality for NC In-Ear
|Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Whether on the bus or walking my dog, these are my favorite noise-cancelling in-ear headphones. I tweaked the EQ easily in the app, and the performance is incredible. Highly reccomend as they offer phenomenal noise cancelling and sound quality - better sound quality than the Bose equivalent in my opinion.

WOW
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely love these earbuds the noise canceling is nearly absolute. I used them in the gym and working in my shop on my truck I literally could not hear anything I was doing in the shop including hammering away steel on steel and people who tried to speak with me until I tapped off the noise canceling. Sound is extremely immersive I love the ability to choose the way you want to listen to music and the way the earbuds adapt to your usage. Definitely a great buy and well worth the money.

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Same great sound quality as the 4s, but they don't cancel noise as well. The fit is also smaller and they don't stay in place as well. Still a great quality earbud.
