    I had to return these despite wanting to love them, I really like the app that comes with it but they feedback unlike any buds I’ve ever had and I tried all sizes of the ear plugs, not one kept them in my ear.

      Hello Nburn9000,

      Thank you for considering Sony products.

      We apologize that the WF-1000XM5 earbuds did not provide the comfortable fit you were hoping for, despite your efforts with different ear tip sizes. We understand how important a secure and comfortable fit is for an enjoyable experience. This is certainly not up to the quality standards we strive for, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. Rest assured, we will forward your comments to our dedicated Sony team for their review as we continue to work diligently to improve our products.

      Best regards,
      -Fred Sony_US
