Can the anc function be used while using a 3.5mm aux cable? i'm interested in using the headset cabled.

Not sure why Sony are saying the ANC function doesn't work with the cable connected - it works fine via bluetooth and cable

Hi, does the mic work over a wired connection? (it does not with the mk4)

U can buy a v-moda boompro mike that plugs into 3.5mm jack on sony headphones and the other end works in consoles and smartphones

Can you charge and listen wirelessly at the same time?

Hi Lewis, We can confirm that charging and listening isn't possible on this headset. If you want to know more about the headphones' specs, we recommend checking the following link: http://bit.do/fUqrC. (Copy and paste the link in your browser). Sony support UK

Do the xm5 make the same beep sound as the xm4 when adjusting volume with the touch pad?

Hi, Yes, it makes a beep sound when adjusting the volume and this procedure takes an interval of about 0.4 seconds as clarified here: http://bit.do/fUjus. We'd also like to highlight that you're able to turn the voice guidance feature off from the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app as clarified on the following links: http://bit.do/fUjuX & http://bit.do/fUjuZ.
