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! -Sam

Great sound and calls, comfort not so much
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Posted .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:

Fine I guess, but hoped for better
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Posted .Hi Masterskz,
While we're glad that you like the amazing audio and noise cancellation, we're so sorry to hear you are having issues with your WF-1000XM5 Truly Wireless Noise-Canceling Earbuds, particularly with mic during a call quality. This is not the experience we want you to have. If the size of the earbud tips does not match the size of your ear canals or the headset is not properly worn on your ears, tap operations or the speech detection of Speak-to-Chat may not be successful, or you may not obtain proper sound qualities, noise canceling effects, or call performances.
If any of this is the case, please make sure to follow the guide from this link: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/wireless-headphones-bluetooth-headphones/wf-1000xm5/articles/00262839
