I bought. the original WI-1000mx From Sony which had better battery like and actually vibrated when you received a call, Those were defected and was separating from the metal neck piece. so I receive these WI-1000XM2 as a replacement within a couple of months I had connection issues the headset would randomly connect and disconnect from the headset but I thought maybe it was just software issues. Then the. headphones completely locked up and didn't or would connect to bluetooth period unless I put it on the charger for a couple of hours. The last straw now is that it started crackling and have a hissing sound in the left speakers when I called Sony they won't replace or exchange or give me a comp to get another pair. To be honest these headphones are 300 dollars they should last longer then one year... I am disappointed since I own two Sony over the HeadPhones the XM4 and XM2... I want to speak to rep.
