You made the right choice! 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!

Good but…
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound quality is excellent, but the design leaves something to be desired. For the price, it could be more elaborate and less ugly.

Mediocre ear buds
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I tried these buds out for a week. I work construction and wanted something that i could wear during the day in order to take calls without holding my phone. Honestly, they worked, but my 2 stars is in comparison to the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro. The Sony buds are big and bulky, and one actually fell out of my ear while walking. The sound of music and bass is mediocre, compared to the Galaxy buds. The price was also big and bulky. All in all, not enough product or quality for double the price of the Galaxy Bud 2 Pros.

Not as comfortable as i had hoped
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound is good. Noise canceling is good. But th ear pieces makes the experienced almost not worth it. I still find myself using my airpod pros because they are so much more comfortable and the sound quality is hardly even distinguishable between the two.

Posted .Thank you for your review of the Sony WF-1000XM5, Julio. We appreciate your positive remarks regarding the sound quality and noise-canceling features. However, we regret to hear that you find the ear pieces uncomfortable.
Comfort is a crucial factor when it comes to headphones. It can sometimes take a little time to adjust to new earpieces, especially if you are accustomed to a different style. We suggest experimenting with the various sizes of ear tips included with the WF-1000XM5, as finding the right fit can greatly enhance comfort. If the provided tips do not suit your needs, consider exploring third-party alternatives specifically designed for improved comfort.
We are dedicated to delivering high-quality products and value your feedback, as it plays a vital role in our ongoing improvement. If you continue to experience discomfort, please do not hesitate to reach out for further assistance. Thank you once again for your support and understanding.
If you have any additional questions or require further help, please feel free to contact our support team directly.

the best earbuds ever
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These were amazing until I accidentally broke them. Make sure to keep the charging case clean, if not earwax and sweat can eventually form a mild glue that causes a little resistance when pulling the earbud out, eventually this resistance weakens the seal until you rip the earbud in half.

Just Okay
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not worth the expense. Noise cancelling is average. Though more comfortable than the XM4's, the 5s were not as comfortable as the Bose Quiet Comfort II (or Ultra). These also kept falling out of my ears.

Connectivity Issues
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the single worst headphones I have ever owned. Not because of the sound but the continued connectivity issues. They won't connect to my Samsung frame tv. They frequently discconect from my laptop, requiring me mid conference call to put them in the case to reset them. Sound is awesome but cannot stand this connectivity issue.
