    Headphones are great for phone calls which is what I use them for. I have still not learned everything they can do and am thankful that the app is on my phone to help learn everything it does.

    The headphones have a very cheap plastic touch to it. Dows not feel premium for the price point. Could have been better but the sound quality is something that makes up for it

      Hello unbox2000,

      Thank you for considering Sony products.

      We sincerely appreciate your candid feedback regarding the WH-1000XM5 headphones. We’re sorry to hear that the material quality didn’t feel as premium as you expected for the price. This is not the standard we aim to deliver, and we take your concerns very seriously. We truly appreciate you pointing out both the areas where we can improve and the strengths in sound quality. Please rest assured that your feedback will be shared with our dedicated Sony team for a thorough review as we continue working to make our products even better.

      Best regards,
      -Fred Sony_US

    These headsets were a long time coming. After getting them on sale, these turned out to be my favorite headphones ever. - ANC - plane, car rides, people, door bell. I will miss everything. It works. - pause and anc turned off when you speak to some one - that works - zoom calls and phone calls - clear - music - amazing I love these headphones

    I got these headphones because I love music and I hate outside noise while listening to music so these are perfect. Paired with the Sony headphones app that allows you to build an EQ of your own you can’t go wrong. Top notch noise cancellation, a pretty good ambient mode, speak to chat, and few other bells and whistles make these worth every penny.
