Superb Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use these mostly with my phone because my hearing isn't very good. They work really well and I have been complimented on the sound clarity. Music sounds great, too. The app has an incredible level of detail concerning things you can adjust with the app.

Perfect
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound and they truly block out the background noise. I have used these mowing and they are great. One thing I don’t care for is if you talk, the sound pauses but I suspect this is something I have to figure out.

So good I bought two
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got the black ones. I liked these so much I got the white one as a gift. I did drop two stars because the mic does not work with the Sony Playstation which is dumb. But it works amazing when switching from my pc and phone and handling calls.

Posted .Thank you for the review, MuzT!
We are so glad to hear you love the WH-1000XM5 enough to gift a second pair! It’s great that you’re enjoying the seamless switching between your PC and phone.
Regarding the microphone with your PlayStation, while these are primarily designed for mobile and PC use, you can actually use the mic with your console by connecting the included 3.5mm cable directly into your controller! For a fully wireless mic experience on PS5, we usually recommend our INZONE gaming headsets.
Thanks for choosing Sony!

Pretty neat sound
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really responsive. Amazing sound. Walked down a busy street during rush hour. All I heard was my music. I am worried about the material in regards to the cushion. Sweating while walking can damage them so try and keep them dry. Works great with my galaxy. Download the app to utilize the headphones full potential.

I didn’t know music could sound like that
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve never been one to throw an obscene amount on headphones because how different could it be. But man, these are built DIFFERENT. All the joys of listening to music on a record player with that crisp clarity and the modern confidence of high tech.

Better than expected
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have the Sony earbuds (wf-1000xm4) which are amazing and needed a new set of over ear headphones. Got these and I'm hooked. I'm not one to stay with just one brand but it's going to be hard for me to try anything else going forward.

Beyond Amazing Sound
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best headphones I have ever owned. Will never go back to subpar headphones ever again. The sound quality is immaculate. I highly suggest listening to any John Williams music at full volume with your eyes closed. It's so immersive. I've got 10+ ear piercings and these don't bother any of them!
