First from series that i Like
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.More character sound than the previous model. It is very light. Good quality of materials. I like more my B&W PX7 S2, but I was pleasantly surprised when I tried this one. Because I am wasn't fun of Sony - WH-1000XM4 and Sony - WH-1000XM3.

Posted .Thank you for your fantastic review, AngelC!
We are absolutely delighted to hear that you find the WH-1000XM5 headphones to have amazing sound quality.
It's especially rewarding to know that the Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) is making such a difference for you, allowing you to listen comfortably and audibly even in very loud scenarios. We engineered the XM5s to deliver that world-class silence and sound quality, and your feedback is a great validation of that effort.
Thanks again for choosing Sony!

Worth every penny
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are by far the best headphones I have ever bought. After asking around and trying another major competitor I settled on them. The sound quality is as you’d expect from higher end headphones from Sony, very good. I love the deeper end of the sound. I use them when I work outside because I love the noise canceling. It removes at least half the noise from the lawnmower. I was told they wouldn’t work well with my Xbox because the dialogue would be off. That is wrong. I use them every day and never notice any dialogue or other sounds being “off”. It was well worth what I paid.
