SONY XM5 - QUIET Please!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.More bulky then the WXM4s but lighter, much better noise cancellation, if you use these for work or making phone calls it is well worth the upgrade

Not what I expected. XM4’s are Better!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Tried out these headphones for about 3 days and I will say they do have premium feel and look to them. From my experience with the past XM4’s, theses new headphones surprisingly lack the control of noise cancellation. A huge downgrade from the previous gen, not only that but they lack the portability of the previous gens. I will be returning the XM5’s and stick with the XM4’s. If you want a solid pair of headphones with portability and great noise cancellation, I’d say you are better off with the XM4’s. These headphones are way too expensive for what they offer.
