    Overall super great. They're the most comfortable ones I tried in-store. They feel weird after a while but I'm also not used to headphones to begin with.

      Thank you for the great review, Ruthy!

      We are thrilled to hear that you found the WH-1000XM5 to be the most comfortable ones you tried in-store! We designed them to be lightweight for exactly this reason.

      We understand that it can take time to adjust to wearing any headphones for long periods, especially if you are not used to them. We hope that with continued use, they will feel completely comfortable.

      Thank you again for choosing Sony!

      Hi SayWhaatSara, we're glad you are enjoying your new headphones! The WH-1000XM5 headphones have 2 processors that control 8 microphones for unprecedented noise cancellation and exceptional call quality. 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. Thanks for choosing Sony. ~Earl Sony_US

    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.

    Hands down the best headphones I have ever owned. They are totally worth the cost. They fit comfortably over my ears and don’t press in a way the other ones do, which caused ear pain and headaches.

      Hi NickiD,

      Thanks for the 5-star review! We're so glad to hear that you feel the WH-1000XM5 headphones are the best you've ever owned and that you find them so comfortable. The design of these headphones was a key focus, and it’s great to know that it's preventing the ear pain and headaches you experienced with other headphones. The newly developed "Soft fit leather" ear pads and a streamlined, noiseless design were specifically engineered to reduce pressure and fit snugly around the head, ensuring you can wear them comfortably all day long.

      Thanks for choosing Sony, have a nice day!
