Good buy
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased the Bose headphones before this one and exchanged for the Sony. The noise cancellation was better quality during long flights. I was able to speak with mic and not sound muffled to others

Good Service, Great Product.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.AMAZING Product. You get what you pay for. I was gifted these headphones and initially thought to return due to the price. We went to Best Buy looked at others, spoke to staff and I decided to keep and try them. I'm so glad I did, I wouldn't trade them for anything now.

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.

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.

Best ANC over the ear headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had Sony Headphones in the past. They wee great. These are a major upgrade. Excellent all around. They do the best job of cancelling low frequency noises that I have experienced. Think foot steps and door closing stuff.

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:
