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.

Best of the Best
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best of the best. The touch controls are amazing and you put your hand on top of the right ear cup and it lowers the volume and noise cancelling so you can talk without removing them. Audio is incredible and the App you will actually will use. so many pre-sets and customization.

Sony
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent quality and noise cancelation. Bass, mids and highs well balanced running flat using EQ. You have to purchase 360 sound which is a drawback. Best headset I own at the moment.

Nice headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really like however they are a little loose for my head. The sound is great and I like the way you can turn it off and on. They are very pricey so hoping they last a long time as my Beats did not.

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.

Great sound, good fit
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overrall these headphones are for anyone who enjoys good sound quality although for the price one may look for other alternatives like the XM4s. If you can snag them on sale Id definitely recommend them. Only complain is they do get a bit warm around the ears if wearing for long periods of time.

Posted .Hello Ticopapa,
Thank you for sharing your feedback on your experience with your Sony WH1000XM5. While we're glad you like the amazing sound quality of the unit and how it fits your head, we regret to hear you're having some heat discomfort when wearing the headset due to the tight seal over the ears. Wearing the headphones correctly is essential, not just so they are comfortable but also to ensure the noise-canceling function works as intended. You can view a video or see the texts on this article for instructions on how to wear the headphones correctly:
