Posted .Hi HarryG,
We're sorry to hear that you are having some issues with your WF-1000XM5 earbud headphones and it hasn't performed to your standards. This is not the experience we want you to have. Your feedback is extremely important to us and is very much appreciated.
To ensure optimal performance, as well as to obtain the best fit and prevent the headset from falling out, change the earbud tips to ones that fit more snugly in your ears. 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. When wearing them, gently pull up on the top of your ears, put the earbud tips in your ear canal, and then twist the earbuds into place. This makes sure the earbuds are firmly in the ear canal.
Please make sure to follow the guide from this link: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/wireless-headphones-bluetooth-headphones/wf-1000xm5/articles/00262839
By using the Sony Headphones Connect app, you can make few adjustments to your headphones settings to suit your needs. This will give you more control over your headphones and their performance. For more details, you may refer to this link: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/wireless-headphones-bluetooth-headphones/wf-1000xm5/articles/00286844
If you still have the unit and you need further assistance regarding your concern, you can email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details:

So-so ear buds
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I did not like these, ended up, returning them the next day after purchasing. It doesn’t seem to fit in my ear the way I’d like it to. These ear buds were just not my forte lol. Not worth all that money.

Posted .Hi Alaska907,
Thank you for sharing your experience with the Sony WF-1000XM5. We're truly sorry to hear that the earbuds didn't provide the fit and comfort you were hoping for.

Quality does not match high price tag
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Earbuds fall out easily and one earbud disconnects and reconnects especially if you are moving around while wearing. Bluetooth range is very small. I have to stay within 15 feet of the device even when the space between is open. I wish I had purchased the Bose for the same price.

Too small, Too slick
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not a fan, i passed them off to my daughter who encountered the same problems. Theyre hard to get a hold of and slip out of your fingers all the time. They also tend to fall out of you ears at the wrong moment. Imagine searching the floor of an airliner….lucky it wasnt crushed. The sound quality didnt match my previous Bose and my ears never felt quite sealed in terms of noise cancellation. Overall, i had expected better. Lastly, they become dislodged from their charging posts inside thwir case. Its common to find one with a depleted battery even though theyre seated in their case when you close it.

Good sound but the fit is awful
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These had great sound. Unfortunately they did not fit in my ears and caused great irritation in my right ear. I tried every single little ear tip size and there was no difference in the way they fit.
