    Great headphones, works great, the aux plug in option is great for saving battery and when working off of a laptop or playing on my switch. Just be careful when doing pull ups, the touch controls can be set off due to your arm touching it also. Lol

      Hi Belly,

      We are sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues with the WH-1000XM5 touch sensor control panel doesn't work properly. When you swipe your finger forward/backward or up/down on the touch sensor control panel, the touch sensor control panel may not work correctly depending on the angle at which the headset is worn or the direction your head is facing. Make sure that your headphones are running on the latest firmware version. If the touch sensor control panel does not work, follow the steps on the links below to resolve the issue.
