Customer Ratings & Reviews

Hi YeQ1,

We appreciate your feedback regarding the noise cancellation on your WH-1000XM5. While these headphones feature an Auto NC Optimizer designed to automatically adjust to your environment, we understand that this can feel different compared to the manual settings of the XM4. To ensure the strongest performance, please verify that you have a firm seal around your ears and consider disabling Adaptive Sound Control in the Sony | Headphones Connect app to prevent the headphones from automatically switching to Ambient Mode.

Thanks for choosing Sony.

Best regards,

Eliab

Hi MilesH,

It brings us great joy to hear that you are enjoying the crisp audio quality and that your WH1000XM5 are working well for you! While the design has evolved from previous generations to prioritize a sleeker profile and improved comfort, we are glad the sound performance is standing out.

Thank you for choosing Sony.

Best regards,
Dominick

Hi CrystalM,

We are elated to hear that your WH-1000XM5 is living up to its reputation! It is wonderful to know that you are enjoying the clear sound quality and the comfortable design. We strive to ensure our products deliver exactly what we promise, so hearing that they are "everything it claims to be" is the best feedback we could receive.

Thank you for the fantastic review, ErickN!

We are absolutely thrilled to hear that you love the look of your WH-1000XM5 headphones and that you have no complaints about the amazing sound quality! Delivering a high-fidelity listening experience is what we strive for.

We do appreciate your feedback regarding the non-folding design. The new sleek, fixed headband design was chosen for enhanced comfort and acoustic performance, but we understand that the inability to fold them compactly is a trade-off for users who prioritize portability. Your input on this design choice is valuable for our future product considerations.

Thank you again for choosing Sony!
