With a newly developed 30mm driver, DSEE – Extreme and Hi-Res audio support they provide awe-inspiring audio quality. Our Voice Pickup Technology uses 4 microphones that are calibrated to only pick up your voice, resulting in crystal clear calls. The automatic Speak to Chat feature will stop your music once you start talking and let in the ambient sound. With up to 30 hours of battery life and a quick charge feature. The new lightweight WH-1000XM5 headphones provide all day comfort in an elegant design. Thank you for choosing Sony!

    I like the comfort & sound of the Sony brand. The app is a game changer. Only downside I have is the Bluetooth connection cuts out sometimes & then comes back in.

    I enjoy the headphones while studying but they are not for working out! They slip off my head constantly & when I’m moving my arms with weights the headphones think I’m trying to change the song, etc. so the music is constantly being interrupted. The music sounds great though & the noise canceling option works extremely well! Great for studying but not for working out!

      Hi ElishaT, Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experience so far using your Sony WH-1000XM5. We're glad you love the exceptional sound quality and excellent noise cancellation of your headphones. Having read your review regarding the fit and waterproof performance, these headphones have great cushioning and adjustability. This will help the headphones stay on your head while working out. These will work great for you while working out “Non-Hardcore”. That being said, these headphones are not specifically designed for sports activities as the unit is not sweat resistant. If the proximity sensor part inside the left unit housing gets fogged up or there are water droplets on it due to condensation or humidity from sweat, etc., wearing detection may not work properly. We recommend you practice caution when working out with these headphones so they don’t fall or become damaged during your exercise. Thanks for choosing Sony! -Jess Sony_US

    The audio quality is superb. You think your airpod pros are nice? Put these on and you will want throw your cute earbuds in the food disposal. Whats most impressive about these headphones is the voice isolation feature when on phone calls. You can be in a car with loud music on the phone, and the person on the other end of the line will only hear your voice. The technology is so good it makes everyone else look bad. It doesnt make sense
