Sony XM5
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a must cop if you look for good sounding earbuds for a fair price. But using a different app to change the setting is weird. But overall a must if you are looking for something good.
