Best Headphones I've Owned!
on October 20, 2022
Posted by: Nurselynn123
Gender:Female
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am BEYOND happy with my new Sony WH-1000XM5 Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones! The sound quality is absolutely amazing. I listen to many different genres of music- from Rock, Rap, Country, EDM, and more. They all sound fantastic! It offers the perfect mix of sound!
When I am not listening to music- I also watch videos and listen to lectures. As an online student, I have to wear headphones hours on end to do my homework, lectures and more. These are by far the most comfortable headphones I have ever owned. I can wear these for 8 hours straight and experience zero discomfort. My old pair of headphones would start to hurt and I would need a break- but these Sony Headphones are so comfortable that I do not have to!
I also love the Noise Cancelling Feature. I am a Mom of a 5 year old and when he is playing it can be quite noisy. The Noise cancelling allows me to muffle out some of the surrounding sounds so I can still manage to focus on what I am doing.
I am also impressed with the battery life! The batteries last me quite a few hours without needing a charge which is important to me when it comes to doing study sessions. I honestly do not have anything negative thing to say about these headphones.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Absolutely amazing noise canceling headphones
on October 19, 2022

Gender:Female
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sony 1000XM5 Noise Canceling Headphones are truly amazing. The sound quality is like no other it’s crystal clear and you really can hear the acoustics unlike other headphones. They are light weight and fit very comfortably on my head the ear cushions don’t smush my ears.
The battery life is another wonderful feature, the headphones can last me days before needing to be charged. The noise canceling aspect is perfect you can’t hear a thing when they are on. This is great when you want to tune out or have to focus on something and can’t be distracted.
Sony these are amazing!!

Amazing headphones!
on October 19, 2022
Posted by: antv
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are an amazing pair of bluetooth headphones. When listening to music, the sound is rich and the bass is deep. They fit snugly over your head and not too tightly over the ears. The most outstanding feature I would say is the noise cancellation. For work I am often on conference calls. These headphones do a great job of getting rid of the ambient noise and focusing on just my voice. Definitely recommend!

Very comfortable, large case
on October 19, 2022
Posted by: Jbubman
Gender:Female
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first pair of over the head style head phones and I’m shocked at home comfortable these are. There is slight padding at the top of the head and the ears are very nicely padded. The noise canceling is pretty impressive. To get the full ability to optimize you will have to download the app. Out of the box there is a setting that pauses your music if you start talking, the ability to turn this off is easy to do in the app. The only negative I can see is that because these headphones don’t fold the case is very large. They sound great and you can dial in whatever sound mix you want in the app.

I compared these headphones to the Apple AirPods Max, and the Sennheiser Momenthum 4 wireless headphones. After several days of evaluating the sound and features i selected the Sony's because I felt the sound quality was the best.
