Best Noise Cancelling Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony WH-1000XM5 are a must have for the person who enjoys their music isolated away from outside disturbances and surroundings. Their noise cancelling processing can't be beat. Paired with Sony app allowing the user to bring out the exact style of audio with the built in EQ.

A Worthy Upgrade.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So to start I had the MX3 before I bought these and I loved those headphones for sure but after some time I decided it was time to buy the MX5 and honestly I'm upset I didn't buy these way sooner because they're the same as the MX3 but BETTER.

Top quality headphones but tiny inconveniences
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For someone who has never owned premium headphones these are amazing, the noise cancelling is great and the sound is definitely better than the $20 ones. The 2 things that bothered me was when the noise cancelling was on it would feel weird when not playing anything. The second thing was the charging cable being way too small. But overall these headphones are really good.

Posted .Hi hipo23, Awesome! We are so glad to hear that you are enjoying your new WH-1000XM5! If the effect of noise canceling is not sufficient, please check our help guide link: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm5/v1/en/contents/TP1000534745.html
These lightweight headphones are beautifully finished in newly developed soft fit leather. This material fits snugly around the head with less pressure on the ears while keeping out external sounds. Our noiseless design with stepless slider, seamless swivel and hanger, and silent joints, makes WH-1000XM5 a pleasure to wear.
Regards,
Carl
