      Hi Zoewgs,
      Thank you for your time writing this review! While we are glad you like your WH1000XM5 noise canceling headphones, we're sorry to hear that you are having issues when connected to your iPhone. Let's work together and resolved the issue.

      Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:
      Ensure that the headphones software is updated as it includes key features, applications, bug fixes, and feature improvements.
      Set the headset to “Priority on stable connection”.
      Remove any obstacles between the iPhone and headphones.
      If you are enjoying music with your smartphone, the situation may be improved by closing unnecessary apps or restarting your smartphone. If you are enjoying music with your computer, close unnecessary applications or windows and restart the computer.
      Connect the headset and the Bluetooth device once again.
      Turning off [Service Link] on the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app may reduce the amount of audio dropout.
      Reset the headset.
      Initialize the headset, and pair the headset and the device again.
      For reference:

    SOOO GOOD. I love it so much. It doesn’t push down on your hair, the boise cancellation is really good, and the touch pad comes in handy a lot. I’ve had it for around 1 year now and no issues. I also love how you can connect it to multiple electronics at once.

    Best purchase I’ve made for myself so far. I actually didn’t think I could love headphones so much. I did a bunch of research on different types of headphones, sound quality, durability, etc. and these consistently popped up. They still are as loud as the day I bought them and I constantly listen to music at full volume!
