      Hi JCas Great! We're glad that you like the design, noise canceling function, and sound quality of your new headphones. The WH-1000XM5 headphones have 2 processors that control 8 microphones for unprecedented noise cancellation and exceptional call quality. With a newly developed 30mm driver, DSEE – Extreme and Hi-Res audio support they provide awe-inspiring audio quality. Our Voice Pickup Technology uses 4 microphones that are calibrated to only pick up your voice, resulting in crystal clear calls. The automatic Speak to Chat feature will stop your music once you start talking and let in the ambient sound. With up to 30 hours of battery life and a quick charge feature. The new lightweight WH-1000XM5 headphones provide all day comfort in an elegant design. Thanks for choosing Sony. Erin Sony_US

    Sound quality is great and so is the noise canceling feature. Can get a little uncomfortable wearing it for too many hours consistently but mostly very comfortable if adjusted well to fit head.

    I have previously owned the xm4s and just got the xm5, and these headphones don't disappoint! The noise cancelling is great as well as the feel of the headphones itself have a premium quality to them. Overall would recommend sony to anyone who is looking to get some premium audio quality! Especially if you are a commuter these are a must!

      Hi Termi, we're glad you like the noise canceling feature and sound quality of our newest industry-leading noise canceling headphones. 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! ~Earl Sony_US

    I use it for tv listening so I am not looking for headphones of audiophile quality, just clear dialogue. Sound quality is great so it meets my needs. A little pricy so I hope the plastic holds up and does not start breaking like my last pair (a different brand).
