      Hi GaryO, We're glad that you like the noise canceling function. We'll take note of your feedback with regards to the controls. The WH-1000XM5 headphones have 2 processors that control 8 microphones for unprecedented noise cancellation and exceptional call quality. With a newly developed 30mm driver, DSEE – Extreme and Hi-Res audio support they provide awe-inspiring audio quality. Our Voice Pickup Technology uses 4 microphones that are calibrated to only pick up your voice, resulting in crystal clear calls. The automatic Speak to Chat feature will stop your music once you start talking and let in the ambient sound. With up to 30 hours of battery life and a quick charge feature. The new lightweight WH-1000XM5 headphones provide all day comfort in an elegant design. Thanks for choosing Sony. Erin Sony_US

    This is challenging. They sound really good, but I got them because of their ability to connect to multiple devices. First issue was they have problems with windows 10. So I had to jump through hoops to get them to work. I have been using them at work for about a week now. To be honest I plan on returning them. After a few hours of wearing them my ears are very sore. Their features are very cool for the noise cancelation. The way you can have the sound stop when you talk. Really cool while wearing them in an office setting....unless you have a cold or cough. Yeah they shut down for 10 secs with every cough. My main reason for returning them is I don't feel they are worth the $300.00 I spent on them.

    Had to get over-the-ear headphones after I started using a hearing aid. The headphone feels and sounds very good. When I first started using it, for the first week or so, I was getting very dizzy. Had to get used to it little by little, i.e. not using it when I'm outside walking, etc. Thankfully, I got used to it and don't get dizzy anymore. The switch between 2 devices could be faster. The app could also be better.

    This is my 3rd pair of headohones and imhave to say the noise cancelling has really improved in my opinion. They are also easier to stow away since the previous versions felt like they had tombe tangked and untangled respectively when taking them out and purting 5em back in the case. The design chane is a welcome one with the headband being more comfortable.
