    Great headphones, works great, the aux plug in option is great for saving battery and when working off of a laptop or playing on my switch. Just be careful when doing pull ups, the touch controls can be set off due to your arm touching it also. Lol

      Hi Meddy,

      Thank you for sharing your feedback—We are sorry to hear that call quality on your WH1000XM5 headphones didn’t fulfill your expectations, even though music playback has been great. For clearer calls, try resetting the Bluetooth connection and ensuring the headphones' firmware is up to date using the Sony Sound Connect app; you can find the troubleshooting steps on the following link: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm5/v1/en/contents/TP1000534602.html. Also, make sure the microphone openings are clean and free from dust, and that you’re using the headphones in a quieter environment when possible, as background noise can affect performance. Your experience is important to us, and we appreciate you letting us know how the headphones are working for you.

      Thank you for considering Sony products!

      Best regards
      DiegoV. Sony_US

      Hi BrendaO, We are sorry to hear about your concern. For more comfortable listening experience, please make sure to adjust the slider of your headphones to a length where the headband touches the top of your head and adjust the orientation of the left and right units so that the earpads fit snugly all around your ears. Refer to this link on how to wear your headphones correctly: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm5/v1/en/contents/TP1000539062.html. Despite your concern, it's nice to know that you still like them, especially the noise canceling feature. With our WH-1000XM5 headphones, you can enjoy magnificent sound quality which is engineered to perfection and have a battery life that can last up to 30 hours with quick charging (3 min charge for 3 hours of playback). With 8 total microphones, these headphones are our biggest step forward in noise canceling technology. Thank you for choosing Sony! Vincent Sony_US
