Customers are saying

While many also appreciate its good bass, snug fit, and decent active noise cancellation, some concerns have been raised. These concerns primarily revolve around its portability, price, occasional connectivity issues, and a desire for louder volume and water resistance.

      Hi Joseph, We're glad that you like the sound, comfort and noise canceling function. If the effect of noise canceling is not sufficient.
      Make sure the noise canceling function is turned on.
      Adjust the headset into a comfortable position.
      The noise canceling function is effective in low frequency ranges such as airplanes, trains, offices, near air-conditioning, and is not as effective for higher frequencies, such as human voices.
      When the Adaptive Sound Control on the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app is turned on, the wearer's actions, like walking or running, are detected. The noise canceling function is automatically adjusted and the Ambient Sound Mode may be activated according to these actions.

      Hi KymberlyP,

      While we are glad to know about your satisfaction with the very comfortable fit design of your WH-1000XM5, we are really sorry if its sound quality didn't live up to your expectations. This is certainly not the experience we wanted you to have. We want to make sure you are getting the most out of your headphones. If you haven't yet, please make sure that you have downloaded the Sony Headphones Connect app. There you will find all sorts of tools to fine-tune your WH1000XM5 and maximize the volume to your liking. There is even an EQ for bass and treble sound. You can also change the Sound quality mode of these headphones to "Priority on sound quality" to improve your overall listening experience.
