Worth every penny
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The audio and noise cancelling are both phenomenal. The mic quality is also fantastic - it’s super clear and noise cancels anything youre doing (washing dishes, crinkling paper, etc). The battery life is amazing, you probably will only need to charge once or twice a week. Can’t recommend these enough, its miles better than the XM3 i had.

One of the best
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I upgraded to the XM5 headphones from XM3. The improvement was evident. The touch controls are more responsive, the battery life longer, the noise cancelling outstanding... and the sound quality quite excellent. Definitely one of the best options out there, even compared to the much more expensive Apple AirPods Max.

Wear a pair and be amazed with the XM5
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are very light and comfortable to wear. Easy to adjust. The touch controls are very responsive. When powered on and placed on ears, they immediately drown out the outside nose. The mics work perfectly when on conference calls for which I use for work. The audio quality is superb which you can adjust through the Sony app to make it sound the way you want. The price was a little steep but well worth It!
