Sony headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise canceling is awesome. The sound could be better but with the app, you can get it to where you want it. My one complaint is the sides of the headphones are very sensitive. While I'm working out its constantly pausing or skipping my music. One thing I love though is it cancels out all gym noise. So for me that makes it worth every penny.

Posted .Thank you for your review, buyer11345!
We’re glad to hear that you’re enjoying the amazing sound quality of your WH-1000XM5! We put a lot of focus into the audio engineering of our flagship headphones, so it’s great to know that part is hitting the mark for you.
We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding the comfort. While we designed these with a lightweight "Soft Fit Leather" headband to be very comfortable for most, we understand that fit can be a very personal experience. We suggest adjusting the sliders slightly to find the best weight distribution for your head shape, as this can often help during longer listening sessions.
Thank you for choosing Sony!
Best regards,
Gus, Sony Social Media Team

Dog ate my XM4, these are different but great!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My dog literally tore my old xm4's to bits, with the money I got for her, I got these. I missing the folding of the ear cups, I miss the more practical case. Outside of that these headphones are pricey, but worth every penny, they just rock.
