      Hi Sentana, Amazing! We're glad that you like the noise canceling function and battery life. The WH-1000XM5 headphones have 2 processors that control 8 microphones for unprecedented noise cancellation and exceptional call quality. With a newly developed 30mm driver, DSEE – Extreme and Hi-Res audio support they provide awe-inspiring audio quality. Our Voice Pickup Technology uses 4 microphones that are calibrated to only pick up your voice, resulting in crystal clear calls. The automatic Speak to Chat feature will stop your music once you start talking and let in the ambient sound. With up to 30 hours of battery life and a quick charge feature. The new lightweight WH-1000XM5 headphones provide all day comfort in an elegant design. Thanks for choosing Sony. Erin Sony_US

      Hi koaabs, Thank you so much for choosing Sony! We are so glad to hear that you are happy with your purchase! These lightweight headphones are beautifully finished in newly developed soft fit leather. This material fits snugly around the head with less pressure on the ears while keeping out external sounds. Our noiseless design with stepless slider, seamless swivel and hanger, and silent joints, makes WH-1000XM5 a pleasure to wear. -Carl Sony_US

      Hi Kaayla,

      We’re truly sorry for the inconvenience you’ve had with our product. We understand how frustrating it can be when a product doesn't meet expectations. Your feedback matters to us, and we’d like to help resolve this.
      To address the issue with the background noises, you can try the following steps:

      Confirm that your headphones are running the latest firmware version. You can check this link with more information: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/wireless-headphones-bluetooth-headphones/wh-1000xm5/software/00278246

      Use the Sony | Sound Connect app to adjust the noise cancelling settings. Specifically, make sure that the Ambient Sound Control is properly set or fully deactivated if necessary.

      Ensure there are no other devices causing interference with the Bluetooth signal. Moving to a different location may help identify if the issue is place-related.

      If the steps above doesn't resolve the issue, you can initialize the headphones to restore factory settings. Open this link to check the steps for this procedure:  https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm5/v1/en/contents/TP1000541013.html

      If the problem persists after trying these steps, we recommend reaching out to our product support team via phone call at 239-245-6366 or chat through this link: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US Hours of Operation: Monday - Friday 9:00 am - 9:00 pm ET Saturday - Sunday 10:00 am - 8:00 pm ET
