Review over Sony earbuds
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound quality was amazing but the fit wasn't as great. The sound quality is worth it but the fit isn't great if you're gunna use it while running or working out. Otherwise, the sound quality is better than the Bose imo

Posted .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

Best sounding but not the best fitting
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Honestly i love Sony and have been a fan of there products for well over 10 years, these are by far the best sounding earbuds ive had since the galaxy buds pro. Idk if its just the way my ears are but for some reason the right earbud doesn't stay in as much as my left one does.

Posted .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

Sony Wf-1000xm5
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sony Wf-1000's are great the ambient sound/noise canceling is the best available and huge sound and bass upgrade compared to the Sony xm4's. U can listen to anything anytime anywhere while still being able to interact with the world around you. I highly recommend to anyone who works in a loud environment like myself to people who live with normal noise decimals on a daily basis these things are absolutely amazing.

Great Sony Ear buds
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There’s a lot of great technology built into these ear buds. Tap one to start and stop. Tap the other to switch from noise canceling to ambient sound. Wonderful sound quality and decent noise canceling. Not as good as over the ear headphones but good for earbuds. Main complaint is they don’t stay in your ears very well.

Alright
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Honestly the only reason why I bought these is because my previous model died on me. I dont think the active noise cancelation is all that great. Unless my music is real loud i still here everything thats around me. The earbuds are comfortable but wait untill these are on sale if you can

Posted .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.

Lack of ANC
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These sound great once you setup the EQ settings. What makes these terrible is the ANC, there’s an issue with voice cancellation, since I can hear people talking clearly. They do cancel sometimes other noises but even with proper sealed these let a lot of noise in. They dont feel like they hsve ANC. I will be returning these,not worth the $300 price tag.
