Hi DanielB!
We are excited to hear you're enjoying your WH-1000XM5 headphones! It's great that you were able to get them on sale and that they're working so well for music.
However, we apologize that you're not completely satisfied with the sound stage for gaming with your headphones. We understand it can be frustrating when sounds in front and behind sound similar. We also appreciate your feedback on the bass and the app's functionality.

We do have a great Inzone H9 Gaming Headset that's specifically designed for gaming and spatial sound. We hope you'll give them a try!

Thank you for considering Sony products and for your feedback!
Best regards,
Estefany

Thank you for your feedback and for highlighting the excellent audio quality and noise cancellation of the WH-1000XM5, ChaseP. Regarding your concern about the touch controls being overly sensitive, we understand that accidental activation can be frustrating.

While there isn’t an option to directly adjust the sensitivity of the touch controls on the WH-1000XM5, there are some best practices that may help reduce unintended touches:

- Ensure that you are making swipe gestures perpendicular (forward/backward) or parallel (up/down) to the headband, as the angle and direction can impact how the touch sensor interprets your input. Using correct gesture alignment may help avoid accidental activations.
- Be mindful of how you wear the headphones, as the orientation and how snugly they fit can affect the response of the touch sensors.
- When setting the headphones down or adjusting them, try to avoid contact with the touch control panel to minimize unintended input.

We appreciate your input, as it helps us continually improve our products and user experience.

Thanks for choosing Sony!

Best regards,
Gus
