So good I bought two
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got the black ones. I liked these so much I got the white one as a gift. I did drop two stars because the mic does not work with the Sony Playstation which is dumb. But it works amazing when switching from my pc and phone and handling calls.

Posted .Thank you for the review, MuzT!
We are so glad to hear you love the WH-1000XM5 enough to gift a second pair! It’s great that you’re enjoying the seamless switching between your PC and phone.
Regarding the microphone with your PlayStation, while these are primarily designed for mobile and PC use, you can actually use the mic with your console by connecting the included 3.5mm cable directly into your controller! For a fully wireless mic experience on PS5, we usually recommend our INZONE gaming headsets.
Thanks for choosing Sony!
Best regards, Gus, Sony Social Media Team
