Hi Lulu, Thank you for your feedback regarding the WH1000XM5 headphones. I'm sorry to hear about the issues you're experiencing with noise canceling, volume, and the touch sensor.

For the noise canceling issue, please ensure the headphones are worn properly, as an improper fit can significantly affect the noise canceling performance. You can also try adjusting the settings using the Sony | Headphones Connect app. Make sure the Adaptive Sound Control is turned off and manually set the Noise Canceling function to its maximum level. If the issue persists, you might want to reset or initialize the headphones to see if that resolves the problem. For more details, please refer to this link: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm5/v1/en/contents/TP1000534745.html

Regarding the volume not being loud enough, it might be helpful to check the volume settings on both the headphones and the connected device. Additionally, ensure that any volume limiting features on your device are disabled.

For the touch sensor issues, make sure the sensor area is clean and free from any obstructions. If the problem continues, resetting the headphones might help.

If these steps do not resolve the issues, please consider reaching out to Sony support through this link: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/service?language=en_US.
