Perfect Quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased these for work, I make phone calls constantly throughout the day. I compared them with Bose 700s that my co-worker tried swearing up & down was better. Of the 2, yes the Bose are better at music wuality honestly, but for phone calls… Sony all day! Perfect sound quality in and going out, and i even made a call once while vacuuming and the person on the phone with me could not hear my very loud vacuum at all!

Big Head - Sony vs Max
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Airpods max vs sony XM5 I brought both and I returned the airpods after I used these. Most of my devices are apple and this works super smooth between them, its easy to connect and everything. The transparent mode is unmatched for the maxs, but I think everything else is better on the 5s. I have a bigger head and to me these fit much better than the maxs, I would suggest this for bigger head people the maxs had a lot of force and did not feel good for long periods.

Amazing sounds and comfortable.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm about 2 weekish in wearing these as my daily set. I've have the new gen airpods pro's and a fresh new pair of wf1000xm4 from sony as a replacement. After having all tried them all, these hand downs are my favorite and hard to put down once there on. Earbuds are cool when needed especially workingout but man these are just great for working from home and just lounging. Get them if you CAN!

Sony WH-1000XM5 Headphones Review
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased a Samsung OLED S95B 4K Smart Television in 2022 as soon as it was release. I tried using earbuds watching my favorite television series and movies but they hurt my ears. I had been waiting for the Sony M5's to go on sale Black Friday 2023 and they did. I purchased the Sony - WH1000XM5 noise canceling headphones and the sound quality is fantastic, better than the M4's. I prefer the M5's case oppose to the M4's.

Meh, wish I hadn't bought them
|Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality is good. The noise cancelling is not good. I had the WH-1000xm3 for several years and "upgraded" to these. The noise cancelling doesn't work in many situations. The settings also revert often when switching between devices. The design is also less portable and the case is larger. I am really disappointed in this headset. I would rather use my old headset with the battery that doesn't last - at least it works to block out noise.
