      That's great to hear, TheresaK! We're happy to hear that you are enjoying your new Sony WH1000XM5 headphones. 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 noiseless design with stepless slider, seamless swivel and hanger, and silent joints, makes WH-1000XM5 a pleasure to wear. Thank you for choosing Sony! -Craig Sony_US

    I liked the sound quality, it was pretty good. But the build quality wasn’t great. Also I thought they were too big, as in the earcups stuck out too much. To me they looked goofy. I didn’t keep them.

    Sounds amazing and it isn't made in Apple's horrible factories. Being able to use a cord is also an amazing feature that I use often with an old CD player.

With a newly developed 30mm driver, DSEE – Extreme and Hi-Res audio support they provide awe-inspiring audio quality.

The automatic Speak to Chat feature will stop your music once you start talking and let in the ambient sound. With up to 30 hours of battery life and a quick charge feature.
