      Hi Alex,

      Amazing! We're glad that you are enjoying the noise canceling function of the headphones. The WH-1000XM5 headphones have 2 processors that control 8 microphones for unprecedented noise cancellation and exceptional call quality. With a newly developed 30mm driver, DSEE – Extreme and Hi-Res audio support they provide awe-inspiring audio quality. Our Voice Pickup Technology uses 4 microphones that are calibrated to only pick up your voice, resulting in crystal clear calls. The automatic Speak to Chat feature will stop your music once you start talking and let in the ambient sound. With up to 30 hours of battery life and a quick charge feature. The new lightweight WH-1000XM5 headphones provide all day comfort in an elegant design. Thank you for choosing Sony!

    I’ve had these for a few months and I love them! I like that there is an app to get the most out of the headphones and you have a lot of options for customization of your sound. I was on the fence between these and the AirPod Max but I’m glad I got these! These are also able to be controlled by the touch sensors on the outside of the earphone, which is a cool option.
