Good Sound/Not Convenient Size
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound in these headphones is really good. Even folded up they are quite a bit bigger than I expected. Not all that convenient for carrying on a plane without a backpack.

Posted .Hi Hal9000, 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
