    The transparency mode or ambient sound mode is greatly improved. The sound quality is slightly diminished. I prefer the sound profile of the wf-1000 xm4’s. However, I do like that these can be used with the LDAC codec while connected to 2 devices at the same time. The xm4’s were only capable of one or the other but not both at the same time.

At Sony, we are always looking to improve our product quality and features. We have noted your input about the sound quality and will be sure to forward this feedback to the appropriate department. Please make sure to adjust the equalizer via the Sony Headphones Connect app to ensure optimal listening experience. Hope this helps!
      The WF1000XM5 features cutting-edge technology to deliver premium sound quality and the best noise-canceling performance on the market.

    Perfect headphones, only a slight improvement if it was possible for me to use the app to find it if it was lost and also Sonia use some memory foam for the earbuds and the inside of the ears to make it more of a custom fit. Even if it was the cost $100 extra, I think people would’ve paid for the custom fit but perfect headphones for the current technology/desgin.

    Literally was hoping these earbuds would be the ones to replace my galaxy buds+. However even though the audio is top notch the biggest issue with the line up remains. Inconsistent battery life where one of the buds has a disproportionately high battery life remaining vs the other. The worst part is its random which one. Honestly sony needs to overhall its software

      Hi Terps90,
      Thank you so much for sharing your experience with the WF1000XM5 earbuds. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the audio quality.
