Hi Dilldog, Awesome! We're glad that you are enjoying the sound quality of your headphones. We regret if the build quality did not meet your expectations. For sound related issue, please try the following:

Turn down the volume of the connected device if it is too loud.
When playing music, if the headset and the transmitting Bluetooth device are connected via an HFP or HSP Bluetooth connection, switch the Bluetooth connection to A2DP with the connected device.
Some devices that emit ultrasonic sound waves designed to repel rodents may occasionally be installed at the entrances of commercial facilities or subway stations. Near such devices, the ultrasonic sound waves may cause noise or unusual sound to be heard from the headset. Leave the place where the noise or unusual sound is heard. Or turn off the noise canceling function/Ambient Sound Mode from the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app.
When using a video calling application on a computer, switch the Bluetooth connection to HFP or HSP with the computer.
During a video call, sound quality may become low due to the conditions of the communication line.
If the headset connects to the previously connected Bluetooth device, the headset may only establish the HFP/HSP Bluetooth connection when it is turned on. Use the connected device to connect via an A2DP Bluetooth connection.

Thank you for your feedback on the WH-1000XM5 headphones, IsaiahP. We appreciate your honest review regarding both the sound quality and comfortability.

Regarding the sound quality, the WH-1000XM5 headphones offer a high-standard audio experience, particularly considering the price point. The headphones feature different sound quality modes during Bluetooth playback, which can be adjusted using the "Sony | Headphones Connect" app. You can choose between the "Priority on sound quality" mode, which prioritizes audio fidelity, and the "Priority on stable connection" mode, which ensures a more stable wireless connection depending on your environment.

Regarding comfortability, we regret to hear that the headband padding and ear pads did not meet your expectations. The headband on the WH-1000XM5 indeed has padding, but feedback like yours may help us improve future models. This aspect is something we continually look into to provide a better user experience.

Your detailed input aids us in better understanding customer needs and enhancing product designs.

Thank you again for sharing your thoughts and for choosing us.
