      Thank you for your wonderful review, LilBeauty!

      We are truly delighted to hear that your son loves his new WH-1000XM5 headphones. It brings us great joy to know they were a hit for Christmas and are perfect for both his school and gaming needs. We designed these headphones with industry-leading noise cancellation, powered by our integrated processors and eight microphones, to ensure he gets exceptional sound and call quality for studying.

      It’s also a fantastic choice for gaming! The immersive audio and spatial sound technology are designed to make every game come alive, providing a truly engaging experience. We hope he enjoys every moment with them.

      Thanks again for choosing Sony for such an important gift.

      Best regards,

      Hi Roman, We are glad to hear that you are happy with your purchase! These lightweight headphones are beautifully finished in newly developed soft fit leather. This material fits snugly around the head with less pressure on the ears while keeping out external sounds. Our noiseless design with stepless slider, seamless swivel and hanger, and silent joints, makes WH-1000XM5 a pleasure to wear. Thank you for choosing Sony! -Carl Sony_US

    Great Headphones, Okay App & A Little Frustration

    Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The app is okay and the headphones are nice, not perfect but they are nice. The app can be a lot to deal with and apart from just pressing buttons and getting a feel of it, it is not really intuitive. That being said there are some very kool features with it. As for the headphones, I wish there was more than 3 levels of noise cancellation and I wish the cancellation was on a higher level. Comparing them to the Bose, I'd say the headphones themselves work well and there are more options with the app but the noise cancelation is not as good. These are still great headphones with many features and are worth the price but I would have been happier if they costed around $325 vs $400. There are also paid app features that I have not used yet and that is frustrating because of the price.
