Quality
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had the XM4 and exchanged it for these. Sound qaulty is more smooth on these but bass is nowhere near the xm4. The xm4 eould make your ears vibrate. Not the same feeling with these.

Posted .Hi Anonymous,
While we're glad that you like the sound quality, we would like to apologize if you feel the bass is not sufficient on your WH-1000XM5 headphones. If you haven't yet, please try to follow the troubleshooting steps below.
To ensure an optimal listening experience, downloading the Sony Headphones Connect app lets you adjust your bass levels and gives you different sound modes. There is even an EQ in there—which can be customized to fine-tune your music to your liking. You can edit the volume of the CLEAR BASS. Increasing the CLEAR BASS setting value allows your headphones to reproduce dynamic deep bass without distortion, even at a high volume.
NOTE: When the audio source does not contain much bass sound, the bass sound may not be audible.
If you are unable to resolve your concern, you can email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details:

Broken Headband within a few months
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had the xm3 I believe gifted to me and I loved the sound quality. It ended up breaking and when I contacted customer service they said it was "cosmetic damage" and they could not fix it. So I ended up buying a new pair and they just broke. I swear to you I did not do anything unusual. I did not sleep with them. I always used the case. I legit had them on and I myself fell. (the headphones did not) and the hinge part just broke off. I paid over 300 dollars for this to say I am disappointed would be an understatement.
