    Uncomfortable, headstrap starts to hurt after just 30 minutes or so. Replacing the too shallow ear cups messes with convenience features. Read up on the hinge breaking issues. Would also just simply turn themselves off at random times (this feature was disabled in the app, and it still happened)

      Hi DavidA, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your experience with the WH-1000XM5 headphones. We sincerely apologize for the discomfort you’ve encountered with the head strap, as well as the issue of the headphones turning off unexpectedly.

      We understand how important it is for headphones to provide a pleasant listening experience. We recommend considering a few adjustments to improve comfort, such as ensuring the headphones are not too tight on your head and taking short breaks during extended use. Additionally, using a cushioned headband cover can help alleviate pressure points.

      To address the issue of the headphones shutting off, we suggest referring to our troubleshooting guide, which includes additional steps that may help you resolve the problem: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00278419?utm_source=glean

      If the problem persists after following the steps provided in the link, we suggest contacting our technical support team at https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=headphones

      Thank you for being a valued Sony customer and for your feedback.
      Best regards,
      Estefany Sony_US
