Hi EnriqueH,

Amazing! We're glad that you like the sound quality, noise canceling function, and battery life of the headphones. 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!

Hi Giovanni,
Thanks so much for sharing your feedback on the WF-1000XM5. It's fantastic to hear that you're loving the sound quality.
We're genuinely sorry, however, that the fit isn't quite working out for you, especially during activities like running or working out.

To help you get that perfect seal and stability you need for active use, we strongly recommend you experiment with the different sizes of ear tips included in the box. Even a slight change in size can make a huge difference in stability and overall seal.

We hope this suggestion helps you get the secure fit you need!

Thanks for considering Sony and for your feedback.
Warm regards,
Estefany

Hi AnnaF,
Thanks for reaching out about the WF-1000XM5 earbuds and your experience using them at work. We understand how important it is to be able to use a single earbud and still have full control, especially for pausing your audio.

You're right, the left earbud on its own can't pause playback. The pause function and the automatic in-ear detection are both tied to the right earbud. So when you take out the left earbud, the audio continues to play, which we know isn't ideal for your situation.

It's a great piece of feedback. We're always looking for ways to improve our products, and customer input like yours is incredibly valuable.

If you’d like to learn more about this, feel free to check out the following link, we put together extra details there that might be helpful: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2963/v1/en/contents/TP1000781982.html

We know this isn't the solution you were hoping for, but we hope this helps clarify why the earbuds work the way they do.

Thanks for considering Sony products and for your thoughtful input.
Sincerely,
Estefany

Hi Cruz,

We're glad that you like the sound quality of the headphones. It's unfortunate that you are having connectivity issues. For optimum performance, make sure that the software version of the headphones is up-to-date (via the Sony Headphones Connect app). Check that both earbuds are placed correctly on the charging case. Each headset unit will be set to the correct position in the charging case by the built-in magnet. Resetting and initializing the headset may also help resolve those issues.

Thank you for your feedback, Cbano42!

We are so pleased to hear that you are enjoying the Excellent sound quality of your WF-1000XM5 earbuds. Delivering that high-fidelity audio experience is our top priority!

We also appreciate you bringing the issue with the right earbud intermittently going blank to our attention. That is certainly not the seamless experience we intend, and having to re-insert it into the charger is frustrating. This is often a temporary issue that can be resolved with a specific troubleshooting step, such as cleaning the charging contacts on both the earbud and the case, or performing a reset of the earbuds.

We would like to help you resolve this permanently. Please reach out to our support team directly at https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=headphones so our specialists can guide you through these quick fixes and ensure both earbuds work reliably for you.

Best regards, Gus, Sony Social Media Team
