Great quality and sound
|Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.[Employee of bestbuy] The headphones sound great and are have a high quality build. I also likemhow they sound compared to my Beats Studio and Apple Airpod Max. However, I do not like that they don’t fold. The carrying case is nice though.

Only small drawback is the headband, after a long movie or gamming session the head band digs into my head almost that gives a slight discomfort. other than that, its fantastic

Excellent Quality Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome sound quality! My husband's an over the road truck driver and he swears by these things. Doesn't feel heavy on his head after several hours of wear and doesn't put a lot of pressure on his head, as compared to the Apple headphones.

We are absolutely delighted to hear that you find the WH-1000XM5 headphones to have amazing sound quality.
It's especially rewarding to know that the Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) is making such a difference for you, allowing you to listen comfortably and audibly even in very loud scenarios.

Too sensitive
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the Headphones and thought they were cute but i did not like the fact that I could not wear them to the gym because they can’t get wet and because they were so sensitive on the outside I couldn’t lay in my bed with them! However the sound quality was amazing and they were pretty comfortable!
