    I got these as a gift for my sister and she said that everything about these headphones are amazing; sound, feel, and size are all good. However, she did mention that she wishes she could use them for a workout or something similar but they are not sweat resistant.

      Hi Review, Awesome! We are so glad to hear that you are happy with your new WH-1000XM5! 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. -Carl Sony_US

      Hi TanishkaK, it's great to hear that you appreciate the feel and sound quality. However, I'm sorry to hear that they sometimes cause headaches. Please make sure that the headphones are not too tight. Sometimes, adjusting the headband or the position of the ear cups can make a significant difference. If you are using the headphones for extended periods, try taking short breaks to give your ears and head some rest.
