    Such amazing headphones and I’m writing this review after a year with them and they’re still good. Great sound and I love the noise cancellation feature. However, I don’t recommend these if you’re running because they do tilt depending on your posture and personal speed as you jog/run but overall great to listen to music sitting down, studying, or just to play Roblox with but I don’t use the mic feature as I have my own mic but I use them to hear the in-game sound.

    Fantastic noise cancelling ability. Very comfortable, probably the most comfortable headphones I've had. The app isn't terrible and not required after initial set up, but still fun to play with occasionally. Would buy again.

    Very nice headphones, but takes a while to learn all the features entirely. I don't like how to melody is separated from the base on each ear cusp. The ear cusps can get very hot and a little itchy if wearing for 4 hours or more. Battery life is great Fantastic bluetooth and noise cancelation though. The look of these headphones are very nice.

      Hi JennaP, Thank you for the 4-star rating! 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. Thank you for choosing Sony! -Carl Sony_US

    I have the Airpods Pro and others from Soundcore. Nothing compared to these ones. The noise cancellation is better. Lightweight and able to control audio with single taps is an advantage.
