      That's great to hear, TheresaK! We're happy to hear that you are enjoying your new Sony WH1000XM5 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! -Craig Sony_US

    Good headphones, good sound, but I personally had a problem - after 1-2 hours of use my ears start to hurt from the pressure of the headphones themselves. Maybe it's just not my headphone format
