    Excellent quality, but it hurts my ears when the noise canceling is on, also it doesn't compact itself with bending, and noise-canceling feel subpar compared to earlier Sony Headphones.

      Hi RedS, Amazing! We're glad that you are enjoying your new headphones. We're sorry if they hurt your ears when noise canceling is on. You have the ability to fully control the noise canceling and ambient noise feature within the Sony Headphones Connect App. If you want to toggle between noise canceling and letting the ambient noises, simply use the button on the side of the 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.

    Noise canceling was adequate, but when mowing lawn it did not perform as well as my last Sony wireless headphone.

      Hi MarkW,

      Thank you for considering Sony products.

      We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you may have encountered with the noise-canceling feature on the WH-1000XM5 while mowing your lawn. While our advanced noise-canceling technology, featured in top Sony headphones, excels at reducing steady, low-frequency noises—such as those from buses, trains, or air conditioning—it may not perform as effectively against higher-frequency, non-steady sounds like lawnmowers, leaf blowers, and other power tools. Rest assured, we will forward your comments to our dedicated Sony team for their review as we continue to work diligently to improve our products.

      Best regards,
      -Fred Sony_US
