Slightly bigger than the 4’s
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are great and the noise canceling is the best you can get of any over ear headphones right now, but they are too big for my head. I had the 4’s and they fit a little big too, but the 5’s are a good bit bigger. Because they don’t clamp tight enough and the head band is too long, they don’t seal well and pull away from my ears when I turn my head side to side. This effects the noise canceling because it won’t seal around my ears consistently. And because it doesn’t have enough clamping force, the headband puts more pressure on the top of my head and hurts after awhile. I love Sonys, but I prefer the fit of the 4’s. I don’t have an abnormally small head either!

Posted .Hi Carly, Thank you for choosing Sony. While we are glad to hear that you are happy with your new headphones, we are sorry to hear that it did not meet all of your expectations. The WH-1000XM5 is for All day comfort with an elegant design! These lightweight headphones are beautifully finished in newly developed soft fit leather. This material fits snugly around the head with less pressure on the ears while keeping out external sounds. Our elegant design with stepless slider, seamless swivel and hanger, and silent joints, makes WH-1000XM5 a pleasure to wear.
Regards,
Carl

These headphones have no competition.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The audio quality is superb. You think your airpod pros are nice? Put these on and you will want throw your cute earbuds in the food disposal. Whats most impressive about these headphones is the voice isolation feature when on phone calls. You can be in a car with loud music on the phone, and the person on the other end of the line will only hear your voice. The technology is so good it makes everyone else look bad. It doesnt make sense
