    Connects to my phone and work laptop. Nobody at work hears my background noise from home life. I can have my volume on high and nobody else hears it, at all!

    My dog literally tore my old xm4's to bits, with the money I got for her, I got these. I missing the folding of the ear cups, I miss the more practical case. Outside of that these headphones are pricey, but worth every penny, they just rock.

      Thank you for the fantastic review, ErickN!

      We are absolutely thrilled to hear that you love the look of your WH-1000XM5 headphones and that you have no complaints about the amazing sound quality! Delivering a high-fidelity listening experience is what we strive for.

      We do appreciate your feedback regarding the non-folding design. The new sleek, fixed headband design was chosen for enhanced comfort and acoustic performance, but we understand that the inability to fold them compactly is a trade-off for users who prioritize portability. Your input on this design choice is valuable for our future product considerations.

      Thank you again for choosing Sony!

    Bought this for my husband for Christmas. He loves it. He has a Sony noise canceling headphones now and he said these are better. He likes the ability to turn on/off the noise canceling when we are out to dinner. He can turn it off to talk to me, then turn it back on easily afterwards.

    I had the XM4s for awhile, but they developed a crackling noise after a month or so. I returned those and got these XM5s as a replacement, and I must say that these are without a doubt the best sounding headphones I’ve ever had the pleasure of listening to. The clarity of these headphones are amazing. These are far more superior than any Bose headphones you can buy, and far better than even the Sony XM4s I had previously. Very happy with this purchase.

    Overall good headphones, coming from the XM4s the earmuffs are a lot more comfortable. Sound quality stays just as good with adjustability within the app. Unfortunately it doesn’t have optimizer noise canceling like the xm4s did so you can’t manually adjust NC on the go. The headphones do adjust NC automatically but that little key feature would’ve been nice to see on these. These no longer have NFC connectivity, but still connect to two devices at once.

      Hi MusicReview, Awesome! We're glad that you love the comfort, sound quality. This has Auto NC Optimizer for automatically optimizing noise cancelling based on your wearing conditions and environment, and a specially designed driver unit, WH-1000XM5 headphones with industry-leading noise cancelling rewrite the rules for distraction-free listening and call clarity. When you wear the headset, this function always automatically optimizes the noise canceling performance by analyzing the wearing condition of the headset according to the shape of your face and your hairstyle, or the presence or absence of glasses, and the pressure change in an airplane, etc.

      There is no need for the wearer to press a button or use the touch sensor control panel to use this function.
