Hi Jaison, Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience with your Sony WH1000XM5! We're very happy to hear you love the excellent noise canceling feature and long battery life of these headphones. To make the most of the noise canceling function, turn off the Adaptive Sound Control, and try to turn on the noise canceling function manually when you need it. Note: Because the noise canceling performance is automatically optimized by the Auto NC Optimizer function according to changes in the wearing condition and usage environment, you may notice fluctuations in the noise canceling effect.

Hi Kendall! Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback on the WH-1000XM5 headphones. We're sorry to hear that the earcups weren't as comfortable as you'd hoped and that the initial sound profile didn't quite meet your expectations.

We understand that comfort is key, especially during long listening sessions, and we appreciate you bringing the earcup size and depth to our attention. This kind of feedback is valuable as we're always looking for ways to improve our designs.

It's great to hear that you were able to customize the sound to your liking using the Sony Headphones Connect app's EQ settings! We're also glad that you found the Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) to be effective – it's something we're very proud of with the WH-1000XM5.

Thanks again for your honest review and choosing us. Your insights are helpful for us and for others considering these headphones. If you have any further questions or suggestions, please don't hesitate to reach out!
