Customer Ratings & Reviews

Hi Andrew,

We’re sorry to hear your experience about the active noise cancellation with the WF1000XM5 earbuds. To get the most out of noise cancelling, make sure the earbuds create a secure fit in your ear—adjusting the ear tip size can really help. It’s also a good idea to check if noise cancelling is set to its highest level trough the Sony Sound Connect app. As well, a firmware update might be needed, which you can confirm in the Sony Sound Connect app, you can find more information in the following link: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/wireless-headphones-bluetooth-headphones/wf-1000xm5/software/00296561 If you’re still hearing a lot of background noise, gently cleaning the earbud microphones may also improve performance.

Thank you for considering Sony products.

Best regards
DiegoV.

Hi Nick,

Thanks for sharing your 5-star review and experience with the WF1000XM5. We're glad that you like the sound quality of the headphones. It's unfortunate that you were not satisfied with its fit and design. For optimum fit and comfort, it is recommended to wear the headphones properly. 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 also helps you determine which earbud tips suit you best to achieve the optimal noise canceling effect, sound quality, etc.

Thanks again for sharing your review and we hope you will consider Sony for your future purchases.

Hi FloridaMan,

Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the WF1000XM5. We're glad that you like the battery life, sound quality, and charging case of the headphones. Your feedback about the Ambient Sound function of the headphones is greatly appreciated.

For optimum performance, make sure to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app). You can also adjust the settings of the Ambient Sound Mode (via the Sony app) depending on your needs. Voice focus: Unwanted noise will be suppressed while announcements or people’s voices are picked up, allowing you to hear them as you listen to music.

Note: Depending on the ambient conditions and the type/volume of audio playback, ambient sounds may not be heard even when using the Ambient Sound Mode. Do not use the headset in places where it would be dangerous if you are unable to hear ambient sounds, such as on a road with car and bicycle traffic.
