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! ~Earl Sony_US

    I upgraded from Sony’s previous model, the XM4, and the biggest changes was the appearance of the headset. The sound quality remains stellar with clear highs and deep bass you can feel. The biggest con is that I cant fold these up like the XM4s, otherwise these do very well if these are your first nice headphones. If you are upgrading from the XM4, its pretty much a coin flip, but if the XM5 will be your first nice headset, its worth every penny!
