Sony WF-1000XM5 Truly Wireless Noise-Canceling Earbuds (Black)

its really good, but expensive, the features are very good, i didnt read the manuel, i just learned on my own what the taps on the ear buds do, the noise cancelation doesnt get rid of all noise in the background, it just causes u to hear it less, but it does cut out the static or air that u would hear without it, so i do prefer it, but sometimes after being in my ear for 1hr or more, it starts to give pain, most of the time i can wear them for hrs pain free, & if u use the smallest size earbud replacements, & bend down they almost fall out of your ear, but to me those are the most comfortable, so i keep using them. 1 thing i noticed when trying take them out of case its easy to drop them, due to the magnetic pull in the case, i have drop them twice that way, because when pulling them out, the magnets keep fighting u, to not let them go easily. but overall very good product, just expensive, i wish the price was lesser, but if i take care of them, i think they would last a long time.

These Sony WF-1000XM5 Earbuds provide a great listening experience for my Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra Android phone and my Windows 11 Pro PC. They pair easily and maintain their Bluetooth connection flawlessly. They also support being paired with both of my devices simultaneously. Additionally, with the phone transmitting sound over Bluetooth 5.3 using the LDAC codec, they support an audio precision of 32-bit sample size at a 96 kHz sample rate and a total bit rate of 960 kbps Stereo which delivers sound quality rivaling Earbuds at twice the price. They come with three sets of foam-type ear cushions for which the medium size adaptors fit comfortably in my ears. They also have excellent battery life and hold their charge as advertised. In summation, I am extremely pleased with my purchase and find these earbuds to be a great value for the money and also extremely functional with respect to their noise canceling performance and high sound quality.

I do love the earbuds but ppl have a hard time hearing me

These are absolutely impossible to get to work. All the included instructions are in Chinese and all the QR codes linked to other instructions in Chinese. I used my AI app Copilot to get me started, but once I finally got them connected to my iPad by Bluetooth, 10 minutes later the connection dropped and I could not get it reestablished. the earbuds do not fit in my ear canal and if that is the case, then the earbuds don’t work correctly as they can sense there’s not a snug fit. Customer Service was by a very nice lady who didn’t speak understable English. So, these earbuds may have great features, but if they are impossible to set up, those features, don’t mean a damn thing.

I have the 1000XM4 noise cancelling headphones - the big bulky ones - and I love them. These earbuds do not compare, don't cancel well, and don't get very loud. Been wondering if I got a knock off but nope - came from the sony store. Also, all the paper instructions came in Japanese.

I love these earbuds. They have incredible sound and very comfortable to wear all day. Battery life is good and connectivity range is also good.

Ergonomically these are terrible. They look sleek and refined but in practice they are impossible to grip when putting them in or taking them out. The decision to use touch instead of normal buttons for functionality was not thought out at all. Anything that lightly brushes up against them, or just trying to adjust them, will cause unwanted function like skipping tracks or changing the audio playback. This happens constantly and is very annoying. Also, sometimes one ear bud will have signal and the other wont which leads to one earbud constantly going in and out, something I have never experienced with many bluetooth earbuds I have owned in the past.I have had earbuds that are 1/10th the price that I would take over these. 2 stars because the audio quality is still quite good.Save yourself (a lot of) money and buy something less expensive with logical design.

These are excellent in every way. Great sound fantastic noise cancelation and comfortable

Är sååååå nöjd…

De compacte bouw past goed in mijn oor. Qua comfort toch 1 ster er af omdat ik (volgens de app van Sony) een grotere maat eartips nodig heb voor een goede seal dan wat ik normaal voor mijn eigen comfort zou gebruiken. Gelukkig zijn de meegeleverde eartips redelijk qua comfort, en is het na een beetje wennen wel acceptabel. Dat neemt niet weg dat ik wel andere opties qua eartips ga proberen.Het geluid is over de hele linie goed, de sound signature is vrij typisch Sony, maar wel iets neutraler en gebalanceerder dan hun goedkopere draadloze in ears.Tot nu toe stoorde ik me bij alle draadloze in ears met actieve noise cancelling aan hoe deze de klank beinvloedde of het gevoel dat deze in mijn oren veroorzaakte. Dit is de eerste draadloze in ear waarbij ik dat niet heb. Het effect van de ANC is echter nog steeds ruim voldoende. Het werkt het beste bij constant geluid, zoals een afzuigkap of een koelsysteem.Ik ben er blij mee.

Ces écouteurs sont excellents ! La qualité sonore est au rendez-vous et les basses sont bonnes. Les touches tactiles sont réactives (plus sensibles que mon ancienne paire samsung, mais on s'y fait) et il n'y a pas trop d'erreurs. Le Multipoint Connection est génial (première fois que je l'utilise), cela permet de passer d'un appareil à l'autre de manière automatique sans aller dans les paramètres.Attention si vous n'aimez pas les embouts en mousse dure (qui permet de mieux isoler le son que des embouts en silicone), passez votre chemin car cela peut être désagréable. Pour moi aucun problème.

I've tried for months for find a decent set of premium wireless earbuds that don't have issues or significant downsides... The Sony MX5s are the winners!Take them out of the case and they connect to your device straight away. Multipoint worries perfectly, both devices connect and switch without issues every time.Sound QUALITY is great, the EQ is helpful. The bass is pronounced and clear without drowning out the mids or highs. The vocals are clear and the treble is crisp. Volume is great, I have my phone set to 50% in most scenarios with ANC on and that's more than enough.The ANC is brilliant. Wore these on a few flights and you can't hear the engine noise, passengers or babies. You will hear that an announcement is happening, but you'll need to use the transparency mode to actually hear/understand it. Noise in cafes and airports is barely noticeable with ANC on.Removing a bud promptly pauses music and jumps to transparent mode in the other one. Putting it back in starts again and turns ANC back on. Works every time.App is easy to use after you work out where everything is. It connects every time, but if you are using multipoint only 1 device can connect at a time in my experience. Not really a problem.I've got android devices so use LDAC codec. Works great, no disconnecting in normal use cases (phone in pocket while walking around). Battery life using LDAC is about 6hrs (maybe a bit more) per bud, then a couple of charges from the case.Ear tips are ok, but a bit firm/uncomfortable for me. They do the ANC. I bought a set of comply tips from Amazon (£12, various sizes) and the comfort is so much better and ANC is better to. Had to tweak the EQ slightly but no degradation is sound or volume.Tap controls work great. However I would of liked more customisation. I regularly just use one ear buds and the most annoying thing is Sony has "sets" of controls that you can assign to the buds. One "set" is playing controls (play/paused skip forward/back), the other is feature controls (toggle ANC mode, start Spotify/Amazon music/ press and hold for temporary transparency/pause). It annoys me that I can't have play controls and a toggle for ANC/transparency on one bud. The volume controls are done with 4 taps on either bud to tun up/down, it's awkward so I just use the device. Not the end of the world, see what I've had on other buds to understand why...So, what did I try before these and why did I return them?1. Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX - great sound quality, fit and controls, non-existant ANC but worst of all constant disconnects from any device I tried (like once a minute). Returned.2. Bose Quiet Comfort Ultra - great controls, great ANC (5% better than Sony's at most though), ok fit but comply tips would have been better. mediocre sound but they had terrible issues with going out of sync with each other and one or the other losing connection. Had to resync with the case every 30mins or so. Case is huge, no wireless charging and felt like it was going to break. Returned.3. Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 - good sound, great controls, great integration with android, great connectivity. Mediocre ANC, but had 2 pairs both with ANC weakness in one ear (ear seal ok, it's a sw problem). Fighting for a return with Google.Sonya are by far the best experience I've had. Worth the extra and if you can find a deal, go for it.

El sonido es excelente la cancelación de ruido es excelente la duración de la batería es excelente el único problema que tiene son las almohadillas que no se adaptan a mis oídos ninguno de los tamaños que trae se adaptan a mis oídos y no aislan del ruido pero he comprado almohadillas viscoelásticas de otro tipo aquí en Amazon por poco más de diez euros y el aislamiento del ruido la comodidad la adaptación al oído todo perfecto conozco a otra persona aquí en mi ciudad que también los ha comprado y tiene problemas con las almohadillas que ya trae estos auriculares pero con esta sustitución de almohadillas viscoelásticas que son suaves al tacto y se amoldan bien al oído puedes llevarlas puestas a ir andando sin que se caigan y aíslan muy bien el ruido estoy bastante contento con estos auriculares porque sé que son premium y tienen una calidad de sonido excelente un aislamiento de ruido excelente una batería excelente y además tiene el modo transparencia que permite oír a través de los micrófonos y es como si no los llevarás puestos puedes oír perfectamente con ellos y escuchar música al mismo tiempo cuando se activa la función hablar por chat con la aplicación del móvil cuando hablas el auricular lo detecta se apaga la cancelación de ruido se pone en pausa la música y puedes hablar y oír a otra persona perfectamente al cabo de varios segundos ya configurado con la aplicación se activa la cancelación de ruido y se activa la música de nuevo y tiene también otras muchas funciones recomiendo estos auriculares para aquellos que quieran una buena experiencia de sonido ya he probado otros tipos de auriculares más baratos y estos son los mejores por experiencia pero hay que comprar otras almohadillas viscoelásticas de sustitución porque las que trae no son cómodas ni buenas al menos para mí.
