Hi MICHAELM,
Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the frustration you're experiencing with the WH-1000XM5 headphones, both with the Bluetooth connectivity and the difficulty determining the power status. This is certainly not the experience we want for our customers and we're sorry for the inconvenience.
To address the Bluetooth connectivity issue, we recommend trying the following troubleshooting steps:

-On your smartphone or computer, go into the Bluetooth settings and "forget" or "unpair" the WH-1000XM5. Then, restart your device and try the pairing process from the beginning.
-Initialize the headphones. You can find the instructions here: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm5/v1/en/contents/TP1000541013.html
-Ensure your headphones are running on the latest firmware. You can check for and install updates using the Sony | Sound Connect app.

Regarding the difficulty in telling whether the device is on or off, the headphones have an LED indicator. When you turn on the headphones, the indicator will flash blue. Please check this link for a detailed explanation of the indicator lights and their meanings: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm5/v1/en/contents/TP1000534536.html

If these steps do not resolve the issue, or if you need further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact our technical support team at https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=headphones

Thanks for considering Sony products and for bringing this to our attention.
