      Hi ddmx21, Great choice! We are glad to hear that you are enjoying your new WH-1000XM5 headphones! These lightweight headphones are beautifully finished in newly developed soft fit leather. This material fits snugly around the head with less pressure on the ears while keeping out external sounds. Our noiseless design with stepless slider, seamless swivel and hanger, and silent joints, makes WH-1000XM5 a pleasure to wear. Thank you for choosing Sony! -Carl Sony_US

    I was so excited about these headphones because they were supposed to be great but I'm constantly being disconnected (I'm wired in), and the noise cancellation randomly turns off when I'm not even touching the headphones. The side of the headphones is the remote and it's too sensitive that even if my hair touches it will change some setting.
