    I prefer the XM4s Because you only need an auxiliary cord and can have them turned off to plug into a PC. The XM5s To be used by Bluetooth, which uses battery and has a bit of delay versus using the auxiliary

      Hi Kh22!
      Thanks for the great review! We are thrilled to hear that you find the WH-1000XM5 such a good value.

      These headphones are packed with awesome features. They block out background noise completely so you can focus on your music, and they stay comfortable even if you wear them all day. Plus, the battery lasts a very long time, and the sound quality is incredibly clear.

      Thank you for choosing Sony headphones!
      Best regards,

    Truly the best pair of headphones I've ever owned. The audio quality is incredible and the call quality is quite impressive too according to my colleagues who've noticed. I love the feature that connects to multiple devices and is able to switch between the two. The noise cancelling is very impressive and make these an all around great everyday pair of headphones.
