Hello ErikWest,

Thank you for your insightful review of the WF-1000XM5 earbuds!

We're thrilled to hear that you find them to be a great product to enjoy your music. That's exactly what we aim for with our premium audio devices.

You've hit on a really important point regarding noise canceling: you're absolutely right that the noise canceling capabilities of compact in-ear headphones, while exceptional for their size, won't quite match the performance of our larger, over-ear WH-1000XM series headphones. The larger physical seal and different driver technology in over-ear models allow for a broader and often deeper reduction of ambient noise.

And we completely understand the challenge of practicing golf with over-ear headphones—that's a perfect scenario where the WF-1000XM5s truly shine, offering high-quality sound and effective noise reduction in a much more compact, activity-friendly form factor.

Thanks again for your great feedback and for choosing Sony!

Sincerely,
Jenn.

Hi DavidD, Awesome! We're very happy to hear you like the excellent noise canceling feature and comfortable fit of your Sony WF1000XM5. Thanks for choosing Sony! -Sam

You made the right choice, KiyonEllison! 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! -Craig

We designed these earbuds to excel in all of these areas, so your feedback is truly valuable.

Thank you for choosing Sony!

Best regards,

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
