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.

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

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.

I'm very satisfied with the product. The earpads are very comfortable for me and the bluetooth connection is also very good. I don't have to fiddle with settings much like cheap ones.

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.

Love these headphones. Noise cancelling is the best I have seen (even compared to similar spec Bose etc), easy to use and look great in midnight blue.

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

Bought this a month ago due to the student discount, very pleased with how it is but also how quickly it arrived. Noise cancellation is amazing with ambient mode.

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.

There is an serious issue with hinge. It broke with basic daily usage. I purchased it in May and within 6 months it broke. It was really unbelievable, no accident drop and no harsh usage. I

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

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.

Highly recommended The sound is great and ANC is really good
Great product which ticks all my requirements
By sivgv88
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.
Take complete control of the listening experience. Your music, audiobooks and podcasts have never sounded so brilliant, with crystal clear hands-free calling and up to 30-hour battery life with quick charging, the Sony WH-100X5 take sound to a completely different level.

The WH-1000XM5 headphones rewrite the rules for distraction-free listening. Two processors control eight microphones for unprecedented noise cancellation and exceptional call quality. With a newly developed driver, DSEE f Extreme and Hi-Res audio support the WH-1000XM5 headphones provide awe-inspiring audio quality.
