Hi DannyT,

Thank you for sharing your great experience!

We're so glad you're enjoying the sound quality of your WH-1000XM5 headphones. The new drivers were specifically designed to deliver a clear and balanced audio experience, so it's wonderful to hear you're noticing the difference.

It's also fantastic that you're finding the Sony | Headphones Connect app useful. It's designed to be a powerful tool for personalizing your listening experience, whether you're adjusting the equalizer, fine-tuning the noise canceling, or using the Adaptive Sound Control feature.

Thanks for choosing Sony!

Sincerely,

Hi ElishaT, Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experience so far using your Sony WH-1000XM5. We're glad you love the exceptional sound quality and excellent noise cancellation of your headphones. Having read your review regarding the fit and waterproof performance, these headphones have great cushioning and adjustability. This will help the headphones stay on your head while working out. These will work great for you while working out “Non-Hardcore”. That being said, these headphones are not specifically designed for sports activities as the unit is not sweat resistant. If the proximity sensor part inside the left unit housing gets fogged up or there are water droplets on it due to condensation or humidity from sweat, etc., wearing detection may not work properly. We recommend you practice caution when working out with these headphones so they don’t fall or become damaged during your exercise. Thanks for choosing Sony! -Jess

Awesome, Damaged! We're glad she's happy with her new headphones. Thanks for choosing Sony. -Craig
