The third gen were better
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wanted to upgrade from my third gen headphones but the noise canceling was worse on these pair. The earcups were a bit smaller as well which made it less comfortable. The audio was about the same though which is still excellent for listening to music.

Posted .Hi SACC,
Thank you for the review! The longer you wear headphones, the more your ears may get sweaty. You may need to limit your headphone usage. 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!
