Great Christmas Present!

A great set of headphones. Good sound and excellent noise cancellation. Lots of functionality too, although I'm still learning the full extent of what's possible. The headphones come with an excellent case and easy to follow instructions, accessible via a QR code.

Bluetooth keeps cutting out.

Excellent head phones. Noise canceling is great. However, the blue tooth connection keeps cutting out. I've followed all the advice and the settings are such that it ought to work. No problem with Bluetooth from my phone to any other device. But these city out every 2 minutes. They are becoming unusable

Great noise cancellation and really comfortable

These were great when I bought them months ago, but they became lifesavers on an 11-hour flight next to a crying toddler (10 hours of nonstop crying, no exaggeration). Noise cancellation: 10/10. Battery life: amazing. Comfort: bonus win. Thanks to these, I enjoyed my K-drama and kept my sanity. Highly recommend.

Excellent headphones

Bought these as an upgrade from the XM3 headphones which I've been using for many years. I've definitely noticed an improvement in sound quality from these new headphones and the noise cancelling is also an improvement over the XM3 headphones. The only thing I'm not so sure about is how comfortable they are for long listening sessions when compared to my older headphones. Overall though I'm very happy with these headphones and would certainly recommend them to anyone looking for great sound quality and noise cancellation.

WIRELESS SET WH-1000XM5

Product is generally good in sound quality but ear muffs materials seems artificial and warm. Also the ear set cannot be folded.

Faulty ANC

The noise cancelling feature on this thing looks faulty, I have had XM-4 for about 6 months , I bought XM5s beacause my XM4 got water damaged. I can feel the ANC difference between XM4 and XM5. I have just updated driver for this headphone but the ANC is still faulty.

Good but traps hair

So the reason I upgraded from my WH4 was that this model is not foldable, and I thought it would not trap my hair as the previous one, but somehow it still traps my hair so that's kinda disappointing

Rubbish and third class plastic hinges

I bought it with a very happy heart but I really am very disappointed by the design flaw that results in broken hinge. Despite using it very delicately I still ended up with broken hinge.

Bought XM5 recently and so far very happy with it. Highlights are lightweight design and super-comfortable wear feel, top notch ANC, superb microphone quality. Also, the usability is great with touch panel on right earcup which features all needed controls. Highly recommended for anyone looking for top notch headphones. The only gripe is they cannot be folded compact unlike old XM4 or new XM6 but not a big deal for me.
