||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ive got a pair of Bose noise canceling phones (QC 35) and QC earbuds that i thought were as good as it gets.

So good I bought two
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got the black ones. I liked these so much I got the white one as a gift. I did drop two stars because the mic does not work with the Sony Playstation which is dumb. But it works amazing when switching from my pc and phone and handling calls.

Posted .Thank you for the review, MuzT!
We are so glad to hear you love the WH-1000XM5 enough to gift a second pair! It’s great that you’re enjoying the seamless switching between your PC and phone.
Regarding the microphone with your PlayStation, while these are primarily designed for mobile and PC use, you can actually use the mic with your console by connecting the included 3.5mm cable directly into your controller! For a fully wireless mic experience on PS5, we usually recommend our INZONE gaming headsets.
Thanks for choosing Sony!

Review for Headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good headphones but if you have glasses, might be hard to get the perfect noise cancellation. other than that no complaints.

Posted .Hi Camm,
Thank you very much for the 4-star review! We are honored to hear you find the WH-1000XM5 to be great headphones and that you have no other complaints about the overall experience.
We sincerely appreciate your detailed feedback regarding wearing the headphones with glasses. We often recommend making sure to run the Noise Cancelling Optimizer feature in the Sony | Headphones Connect app while wearing your glasses, as this can help the headphones adapt the ANC to the slight difference in fit.
We really appreciate you choosing Sony!
Best regards,
Dominick
