Posted .Hi best4buyer, thanks for choosing and purchasing our product. We're glad you like it. We appreciate your feedback regarding the headband of your Sony unit. Thanks for choosing Sony! ~Earl
I wouldn't buy them.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I found these headphones to be uncomfortable. They do not provide enough padding on top of the head. Also they hurt my ears because they don't have enough that in the ear pads.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from SonyListens
Posted .Hi AlexanderM
We're genuinely sorry to hear that the WH-1000XM5 headphones didn't provide the comfort you need, particularly with the padding on the headband and earcups. We understand how important a comfortable fit is for an enjoyable listening experience.
If comfort is a key concern, you might be interested in exploring our newest model, the WH-1000XM6, which features a redesigned headband and earcups that many users find offers enhanced comfort for longer listening sessions.
Thanks for considering Sony Products.
