Hi NickiD,

Thanks for the 5-star review! We're so glad to hear that you feel the WH-1000XM5 headphones are the best you've ever owned and that you find them so comfortable. The design of these headphones was a key focus, and it’s great to know that it's preventing the ear pain and headaches you experienced with other headphones. The newly developed "Soft fit leather" ear pads and a streamlined, noiseless design were specifically engineered to reduce pressure and fit snugly around the head, ensuring you can wear them comfortably all day long.

Thanks for choosing Sony, have a nice day!

Thank you for the feedback, MatthewWolowitz.

We're glad you like the headphones but sorry the noise canceling isn't hitting the mark. We recommend disabling "Adaptive Sound Control" in the Sony Sound Connect app to keep the ANC at its maximum level. Ensuring a snug fit around the ears and checking for the latest firmware update can also significantly improve performance.

Thank you for choosing Sony!

Best regards, Gus, Sony Social Media Team
