    I was worried these wouldn’t work with my apple products but I was wrong. It seamlessly pairs and the noise canceling is out of this world.

    The Sony WH1000XM5 Wireless Noise-Canceling Over-the-Ear Headphones are a game-changer in audio technology. Sony has once again set the bar high with these headphones, delivering outstanding sound quality that is both clear and rich in detail. The noise-canceling feature is truly impressive, creating an immersive listening experience by effectively blocking out external noise.

    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

    Slightly bigger than the 4’s

    These headphones are great and the noise canceling is the best you can get of any over ear headphones right now, but they are too big for my head. I had the 4’s and they fit a little big too, but the 5’s are a good bit bigger. Because they don’t clamp tight enough and the head band is too long, they don’t seal well and pull away from my ears when I turn my head side to side. This effects the noise canceling because it won’t seal around my ears consistently. And because it doesn’t have enough clamping force, the headband puts more pressure on the top of my head and hurts after awhile. I love Sonys, but I prefer the fit of the 4’s. I don’t have an abnormally small head either!
