WH-1000XM5
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good noise cancellation with an app that helps with its updates. The only problem would be its overtime wear and tear like any headphones, but overall the quality is great.

Good purchase
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones definitely have excellent sound quality. Initial use of The noise-canceling and ambient sound features are great also. One small minor critique I have with the headphones is that they're not sweatproof or water-resistant. You think for the price, they would have at least some type of water resistance. But the sound quality is impressive.

Not what you're expecting... but in a good way!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They're *just* great sounding headphones. I read reviews and got myself hyped and nothing too complain about, at all, but they're slightly over hyped. Not over rated though, just amazing sounding headphones.

Okay headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good headphones, the sound quality and noise cancelling are top notch. I am a medical student and using these to study were amazing. But the build quality isn’t the best. I ended up returning them and buying AirPod maxs instead.

build material
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound, anc, and ambient on these are great but the only issue I didn't like was that the black accumulated tons of hair oil and had to be cleaned often. I have returned these for Airpod Maxes due to my personal hair putting so much oil on them.
