Best Buy Support is the Best! Also headphones good
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphones are excellent, but the customer service was extraordinary. I bought these not at a sale and almost a month later saw that they were on sale. Best Buy does price match with purchases as long as it fits the qualifications, so I talked to Best Buy support and they refunded me the difference with no hassle!

Not great for work
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The boom mic on my Jabra 75 headset started failing. After reading an amazing review on soundguys.com for the WH1000XM5 I drove to Best Buy and bought them. The sound is great. The noise cancelling is great (I work from home in a room with a window AC unit). However, I can't hear myself talk when on a call unless I turn off the ANC, and that defeats the purpose of the ANC for me. I'm going to have to return them and find something else.

Posted .Hi JamesF, While we're glad you like the great sound quality and noise cancellation of the Sony XM5, we regret to hear that you're unable to hear yourself talk during phone calls and it had to be returned. For this specific issue, I would suggest adjusting the noise cancelling function using the Sony Headphones Connect app and find the right spot where the noise cancellation still blocks out outside noise but still hear your voice during phone calls.
For future reference, we can offer assistance on how to set up or operate the features and functions, and troubleshoot the issue of your Sony product by visiting our Sony Support website to download the help guide and look for additional information about your product. Also, you can reach out to one of our agents through this link: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/service?language=en_US. who would be glad to help. I hope you consider our Sony products in the future. Thank you for sharing your feedback. -Sam

Posted .Hi Meddy,
Thank you for sharing your feedback—We are sorry to hear that call quality on your WH1000XM5 headphones didn’t fulfill your expectations, even though music playback has been great. For clearer calls, try resetting the Bluetooth connection and ensuring the headphones' firmware is up to date using the Sony Sound Connect app; you can find the troubleshooting steps on the following link: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm5/v1/en/contents/TP1000534602.html. Also, make sure the microphone openings are clean and free from dust, and that you’re using the headphones in a quieter environment when possible, as background noise can affect performance. Your experience is important to us, and we appreciate you letting us know how the headphones are working for you.
Thank you for considering Sony products!
Best regards
DiegoV.
