Hi Drizzly,

We are very sorry to hear that your charging case has stopped responding. We understand how disappointing this is, especially when you have only owned them for a month. Before considering a return or replacement, please try the following troubleshooting steps to see if we can restore the connection:

1. Please ensure you are using the original Sony USB-C cable provided in the box.

2. Connect it to a USB AC adaptor capable of supplying an output current of 0.5 A (500 mA) or more.

3. Leave the case plugged in for at least 2 hours. Even if the LED stays dormant initially, it may eventually turn on once it reaches a minimum threshold.

4. If the earbuds are not "detecting" the case, it is often due to a buildup of microscopic skin oils or dust on the charging interface. Use a dry cotton swab or a soft cloth to gently clean the gold contact pins inside the charging case and the corresponding contact points on the earbuds.

If the hardware is clean but the issue persists, please attempt the following:

Reset the headset: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2963/v1/en/contents/TP1000783924.html

Factory Reset the headset: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2963/v1/en/contents/TP1000783925.html

If these steps do not resolve the issue. Please contact our technical support team for personalized assistance:

Hi Pilotjs152,

We regret to hear that you are not satisfied with the WF1000XM5. Your feedback is extremely important to us and is very much appreciated. For optimum performance, make sure to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app).

If the size of the earbud tips does not match the size of your ear canals or the headset is not worn properly in your ears, tap operations or Speak-to-Chat speech detection may not work correctly, or you may not obtain the correct sound qualities, noise canceling effects, or call performance. If any of this is the case, try the following.

-Change the earbud tips to ones that fit more snugly in your ears. 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 will help you to determine which earbud tips suit you best to achieve the optimal noise canceling effect, sound quality, etc.
-Check that you are wearing the headset properly in your ears. Wear the headset so that the earbud tip is comfortably situated as deep in the ear canal as possible.

Hi ALLENZ470,

Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the headphones. We're glad that you like the comfort of the headphones. Your feedback about the sound quality is greatly appreciated.

For optimum performance, make sure to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app).

If the size of the earbud tips does not match the size of your ear canals or the headset is not worn properly in your ears, tap operations or Speak-to-Chat speech detection may not work correctly, or you may not obtain the correct sound qualities, noise canceling effects, or call performance. If any of this is the case, try the following:

-Check that you are wearing the headset properly in your ears. Wear the headset so that the earbud tip is comfortably situated as deep in the ear canal as possible.

Hint: The function that determines the optimal earbud tips for you measures the air-tightness of the earbud tips and determines whether or not the headset units are being worn in your ears correctly. Select a size that fits comfortably.

You also have the option to adjust the equalizer function of the Sony Headphones Connect app to tailor-fit the sound quality to your needs. For more information, please refer to this link:
