Best Headphones Ever, just wish water resistant
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The ones I was waiting for. I didn't think they were coming until August. My Bose 700 were stolen and so I wound up getting these and have to say, the Sony are better in sound isolation, sound quality using Tidal (3d audio, eq) and they cancel out everything! The hand over the right ear to amplify the outside world for you hear is an amazing touch. I use these for remote working all over town. I'm always in my headphones but can let in people as I want. A blessing for my social anxiety. The only spot that Bose has these beat is on the device switching. This may be a familiarity thing at this point. TBD

Super comfy and great sounding!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comfortable and high quality sound along side excellent active noise cancellation make these top tier wireless headphones. I’ve owned the Airpods Max in the past and surprisingly enough I like the way the XM5’s sound much better.

Posted .Hi AmmadN,
We are sorry to hear that the fit of your WH-1000XM5 feels loose and heavy. To ensure a more secure feel, we recommend extending the sliders fully before putting them on and then adjusting them until the headband rests softly on the top of your head, which helps distribute the weight more evenly and stabilizes the earcups. Since these headphones feature a "soft-fit" leather and a lightweight design, finding that specific "sweet spot" with the slider length is key to preventing them from shifting while you move.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

Great product!!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have owned Sony XM4s, Boses, etc. Bose has released a competive model. It costs $100 more and have been able to compare in store it depends on concern with sound or noice cancellation. Best buy had this model and sell for $299 and even looked for a price without me asking. The manager, Keith, is really a super person. He told mechechas been at Best Buy for 17 years. I haveckbown him for 12 years, since day I moved back to Gainesville Store. I check online, but purchased most of items at this store I was cocerned with both. My opinion this model is better than the new Bose.

Great Headphones - Great Musicality and Great NC!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had these headphones for a few weeks now, and primarily bought them for the work environment. Later in the year, I will be transitioning to a noisy open cubicle floorplan, and that is why I bought this noise cancelling headphones. So far I am very impressed with the high quality musicality of the headphones, as well as the noise cancelling capabilities; my last corded NC headset was nowhere close to either in capabilities, but was fantastic at the time I bought them. This Sony headset has set the bar even higher! I now use them almost every workday, and some weekend days, just because they are so good. I highly recommend them to anyone, especially anyone using an Android phone.

Amazing wireless headphones
|Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super comfortable, super sturdy, and amazingly warm sound signature for the price. These are by far the best wireless ANC headphones I've used, blowing the AirPods Max and Bose QC45s out of the water.
