    These earbuds have been excellent. Great for work and using it in the car when needed. Even managed to suppress the sound of my dogs barking during Zoom calls. Highly recommend.

      Hi franksink,

      Thanks for your comment. While we are thrilled to hear about your satisfaction with the amazing sound quality of your WF-1000XM5, we are really sorry if its loudness and fit didn't live up to your expectations. This is certainly not the news we'd like to hear from you. The earbuds may not work as designed if they are not worn properly, or the size of the earbud tips doesn't match the size of your ear canals. The following information on this article is important in order to maximize the volume, noise canceling function, and sound quality for music and calls.

    Buds don't wanna come out of the case. This leads to fumbling a bud here or there. If you don't mind chasing em down a time or two then these are FANTASTIC!

      Thank you for your feedback on the WF-1000XM5, ThomasC. We're glad to hear you find them fantastic overall. We understand your concern about the buds being a bit tricky to remove from the case, which can lead to fumbling.

      A potential solution might be to ensure the buds are magnetically secured when docked in their case, providing a more secure grip for easier removal. Additionally, adjusting the angle or grip when removing them can help prevent drops.

      If you have further concerns or need assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out to our customer service. Thank you for choosing Sony!
