      Hi Logan,

      You made the right choice with the Sony WH-1000XM5! 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. Thank you for choosing Sony!

    I bought this one for my wife since I bought a black one for my self. I made a review about this one earlier but I think this is the best bang for your buck if you’re a music type of person. The ambient mode is amazing as well and when you start talking it minimizes the music so you can hear what people are saying to you.
