Great upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Much improved upgrade over my previous M3s. In choosing between the WH1000XM5s and Apple's AirPod Max, these were the clear winner.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have been a loyal sony user for many years - it never disappoints me! I've had a XM2 for 6 years which worked so well, but I unfortunately lost it during a trip. Upgraded to XM5 last month and it delivers moreeeeee than expected. Sound is a personal taste but I prefer Sony's profile to Bose and Apple. Definitely recommend :)

Best sounding mainstream wireless headphones, few negatives though, the touch sensor panel seems to have a kind of its own!I wear them all day for work all year round so I wish they had less wear fatigue but if you wear them for shorter periods of time they are perfectly comfortable!Otherwise my favorite headphones!

Actually Noise Cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Omg. I've never purchased such expensive headphones...these were WORTH it. They completely block out sound. I went to a car wash, sat close to the machine tunnel, played music and could not hear the car wash AT ALL. The smart features are super convenient. If they were waterporoof I would never removw them. Super amazing.

Spectacular headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got these as a Christmas gift for my wife and she has absolutely loved them. She is a musician and records from our home studio quite a bit and these have fantastic headphones for recording or just sure listening casually. Normally she does not care about this kind of thing but she has absolutely been in love with these headphones and will not go back to any others.
