    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

    The Sony WH1000XM5 Wireless Noise-Canceling Over-the-Ear Headphones are a game-changer in audio technology. Sony has once again set the bar high with these headphones, delivering outstanding sound quality that is both clear and rich in detail. The noise-canceling feature is truly impressive, creating an immersive listening experience by effectively blocking out external noise.

      Hi NicolasC,

      Thanks for the 5-star review! We're so happy to hear you're enjoying the magnificent sound quality of the Sony - WH1000XM5. We also appreciate your feedback on the volume; for a more personalized sound, you may want to explore the equalizer settings in the Sony | Headphones Connect app. It allows you to customize the sound profile to your liking, which might help you get a little more out of them.

      Thank you for choosing Sony!

    I came from the 1000XM-4. It's a good headset depending on what you like and what you're coming from. If you don't mind Bose sound tuning of less bass and more mids it's not bad. I not the Google Assistant is a little more consistent than the XM-4. The charging on this headset is a massive upgrade in speed. In less than an hour at work they went from empty to full. By default the auto pausing is a little sensitive. My main gripe with these is the noise canceling microphones while on a voice call. While the canceling and voice isolation is incredible it's inconsistent. I was able to have real conversations on the phone while mowing my lawn speaking normally. At the same time the connection was shaky and inconsistent. Nice that connection becomes more solid this will be a game changing headset.
