    Best noice cancellation and great sound quality. Very comfortable to wear even for long periods of time. I personally prefer the folding style the xm4 has but these are still ok.

    I enjoy the headphones while studying but they are not for working out! They slip off my head constantly & when I’m moving my arms with weights the headphones think I’m trying to change the song, etc. so the music is constantly being interrupted. The music sounds great though & the noise canceling option works extremely well! Great for studying but not for working out!

      Hi ElishaT, Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experience so far using your Sony WH-1000XM5. We're glad you love the exceptional sound quality and excellent noise cancellation of your headphones. Having read your review regarding the fit and waterproof performance, these headphones have great cushioning and adjustability. This will help the headphones stay on your head while working out. These will work great for you while working out “Non-Hardcore”. That being said, these headphones are not specifically designed for sports activities as the unit is not sweat resistant. If the proximity sensor part inside the left unit housing gets fogged up or there are water droplets on it due to condensation or humidity from sweat, etc., wearing detection may not work properly. We recommend you practice caution when working out with these headphones so they don’t fall or become damaged during your exercise. Thanks for choosing Sony! -Jess Sony_US

    All around happy with these headphones. I often work driving loud trucks and heavy equipment. While I need to hear alarms, horns or changes in the sound of the machinery the dull roar can become incredibly exhausting. However with these headphones I can adjust how much of the ambient noise I hear so I do not interfere with the safe operation of said equipment. I am also very pleased with the call quality and I am told that I sound much clearer when on the headphones whether or not I'm operating equipment

      Hi NicolasC,

      Thanks for the 5-star review! We're so happy to hear you're enjoying the magnificent sound quality of the Sony - WH1000XM5. We also appreciate your feedback on the volume; for a more personalized sound, you may want to explore the equalizer settings in the Sony | Headphones Connect app. It allows you to customize the sound profile to your liking, which might help you get a little more out of them.

      Thank you for choosing Sony!

      Hi S54CM3! Thanks for the review!
      It is most rewarding to hear that your WH-1000XM5 is working out so well for both your meetings and your personal time.

      These headphones include Multipoint Connection, allowing you to stay connected to your laptop and phone simultaneously, and an Auto NC Optimizer that automatically adjusts noise canceling based on your surroundings.

      Thanks for selecting Sony headphones!
