||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I listened to every pair in the store, the Sony WH-1000XM5 sounded better than any other brand they had by far.

Best on the market.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sorry headphones always been high quality products, and this model has all you need specially for long flights you are in your own world, without a doubt def a keeper. Only a small adjustment on the cushion over the head would have to be wider I think they corrected it on the latest version, again this definitely also depends on the shape of the person's head its gone get some time of use but would work fine, other than that all is perfect. I would recommend it specially it been on sale for a lot less.

Sound quality is great
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality is better than my Bose 45. Has deep bass and clear vocals. Noise cancelling works great, I fly a lot and when these are on, I don't hear the engine noise and fall asleep quickly. Highly recommended

great, but too expensive.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comfortable ear pads. Sound is great. Downside is the price. Really expensive, so it takes away from the value. Because of the price, I do not recommend.
