Hi YeQ1,

We appreciate your feedback regarding the noise cancellation on your WH-1000XM5. While these headphones feature an Auto NC Optimizer designed to automatically adjust to your environment, we understand that this can feel different compared to the manual settings of the XM4. To ensure the strongest performance, please verify that you have a firm seal around your ears and consider disabling Adaptive Sound Control in the Sony | Headphones Connect app to prevent the headphones from automatically switching to Ambient Mode.

Thanks for choosing Sony.

Best regards,

Eliab
