    Exceptional noise canceling
    I'll start with why I returned these earbuds: I couldn't get them to fit in my ear, specifically the right side. I tried the different size tips that it comes with and no matter how I put them in, there was always outside noise sneaking in around the earbud. I blame that mostly on my own anatomy, but I think it does have something to do with how these earbud tips are a foam-like material similar to earplugs, rather then your usual rubber/plastic material. The earplug material on these Sonys makes me wonder if they'll eventually break down and become soft and require replacing every few months.The good: the sound quality on these earbuds is amazing. The highs are crisp and the bass is a rich and deep. All the EQ settings are adjustable in the app which I found easy to set up. No account required, just go through the usual tips and tours through the features which I found helpful. I didn't have any glitches or problems connecting with the app, which is a huge win over other earbud apps like Bose for example, whose app is almost useless for how often it can't connect to the earbuds. The only thing I didn't like about the app is how the shortcut controls aren't customizable. For example volume up is tapping the right earbud 4+ times and there's no way to change that to something simpler. As far as the charging case, it is small and sleek, and charged the earbuds very quickly.The noise canceling! It's an unreal experience when you put these little things in your ears, turn on active noise canceling, and just listen to the world melt away around you. You don't need the volume up too high because the ANC is that good. I tested these and two other earbuds on a vacation which included a flight to Las Vegas and the noise canceling made an enormous difference on the plane and to help mute the background noise within casinos and on the strip.These are a solid 9 out of 10. The only reason I didn't keep them is because (most likely due to the shape of my own ear and ear canal) I couldn't get the right side to fit snugly and effectively. They also made my ears kind of sore after keeping them in for more than 30 minutes. With some slight design improvements, and maybe using a better material instead of the squishy earplug foam, these would be a keeper for me.

    For all the hype on the Internet about the sound quality.... these live up to their cyber-reputation.... solid quality sound, especially if you have an EQ app on your phone/tablet. Noise-cancelling? Not so much. If you have small ears, these may not fit so well, regardless of the size earbud.

    I used the XM4 for over two years and loved it. In comparison the XM5 is better in every way. Smaller, more ergonomic, somewhat better sound (XM4 sounded amazing).
    I left the XM4s in an airplane and was bummed.
    XM5 and Tidal HiRes music is an unbeatable combination. Incredible how much functionality is packed in such a compact product. Sony has done an amazing job improving a product that was already best in class.
    The spatial effect or sound stage is unbelievable. The low end is clean and the vocals are very neutral and somewhat austere. If there is anything remotely negative about this product is the fit of the spongy/foam. I tried a couple of different sizes and finally found one that fit comfortably.
    Overall, I am very happy about this upgrade, and recommend. Perhaps, if you are patient and wait for a sale, it won’t hurt your wallet as much. At >$270 they are definitely not cheap. You have to try this product to really understand how good it is.

    very good quality sound. decent battery life, though it is never as good as advertised. it needs to come with smaller, snugger, softer fitting ear plugs. All the ones that come with the unit are too big, and therefore don't quite deliver the noise cancelling one would like.

    I did my research on ear buds form numerous electronic sites and personal calls to retailers. After about three months I settled on the updated 2023 Sony WF-1000XM5 buds for my son's Christmas. The only thing I can complain about is I would like more bass, not "cow bell", if your old enough you will get it.
    THE USAGE, FEATURES/CONTROLS, ARE A LITTLE HARD TO GET USED TO. YOU MUST DOWN LOAD THE OWNERS MANUAL. NO ONE MAKES/PACKAGES THEM ANY MORE???!!!

    I even left them on top of the mailbox, don't go there, and they still worked AFTER A WHOLD DAY OF RAIN. No rice baths. I thought they were toast, but not one issue since three weeks ago. And, I use them a lot!!! Bowers & Wilkins, JBL, Skull Candy, Apple Air Pods/horrible sound, and Samsung are commendable, but these are the best and that is what most other people say.

    These are the ones you need to buy. As a musician for 48 years and singer for 58, I know sound and how to write REAL reviews, not one liners that tell you nothing specific/useful!!

    These headphones were intended to be an upgrade from my Bose quiet comfort earbuds, which have worked great until I recently broke the case after nearly 3 years of use. I decided that I wanted to upgrade earbuds, as I was sure there was a better product out there by now. Everywhere I looked said that these headphones were overall the best earbud you could but before moving onto IEM, so after some moderate research I went ahead and ordered. I was already familiar with Sony headphones, purchasing the WH-XM5's (over ear) headphone model, and quite pleased with that product, despite some design flaws.

    Once I got every set up and had adjusted to the new sound of these earbuds, I was amazed with how clear my music sounded. I noticed, however, that I could easily hear all the things around me, and found that the settings for "optimizing" this product more cumbersome that I remember from my over ear headphones- with the addition of earbud fitting that the mobile app suggests you do. Within a day I noticed that my commutes were just as loud and overstimulating as if I were not wearing headphones at all, and quickly jumped to the idea that I must not have set these up correctly. It wasn't until I wore these at my job, which has white noise machines, that I knew something was very off because I could hear the white noise loud and clear. After checking every setting on the app and switching between every earbud size, I could still hear the white noise loud and clear.

    I decided to ignore the professional product reviews and after looking on Reddit, I could see that many had had the same exact issue even a year ago and had yet to be fixed. I learned that for these to work as intended, there needs to be a sufficient seal in your ear to block out all other external sounds, but with an oversimplistic earbud design I and others could never achieve that. I am overall confident that the terrible noise canceling is not simply a user-error considering how much trouble shooting I have done- but even so, why does this process have to be so difficult and unclear? So much of this felt needless complicated, and in the end I decided to return them, because without the ANC I really have no use for these. Huge disappointment for an otherwise great sounding pair of headphones.

    The good:
    -The sound quality is fantastic on these. Both in calls and listening to music. People can hear me very well.
    -The battery life is fantastic. I can easily get a full day out of these.
    -They are very comfortable. I know this can vary person to person, but they didn't hurt my ears.
    -The ability to connect to two devices at once is hold. They will seamlessly switch between them two.

    The bad:
    -Sound cancellation is pretty much non existent. From what I've read they supposedly have the best sound cancellation of any earbud on the market, but I can't tell that they are really doing anything. I in even sent a pair back thinking surely they were defective, but the second pair was equally disappointing in this department.
    -Expensive. One of the priciest earbuds on the market. I would have hoped the noise cancellation would have been better at this price point.

    Would give 5 stars if not for the nose cancellation thing.

    5.0 out of 5 stars AMAZING: Elevating the True Wireless Experience
    Reviewed in Japan on April 8, 2024
    As an avid audiophile, I have always been in pursuit of the perfect balance between convenience and sound quality in the realm of true wireless earbuds. Enter the Sony WF-1000XM5, a remarkable addition to Sony's esteemed lineup that undoubtedly sets a new standard in the realm of wireless audio. After extensive testing, I'm thrilled to rate my experience with these earbuds a solid 9 out of 10, with each aspect contributing to an unparalleled listening journey.

    Bass Quality (9/10):
    Let's dive straight into the bass, which is undeniably one of the most crucial aspects for many music enthusiasts. Sony has mastered the art of delivering deep, punchy bass without overwhelming the rest of the sound spectrum. With the WF-1000XM5, every beat resonates with precision and depth, providing a satisfying low-end experience whether you're enjoying hip-hop, EDM, or even classical compositions where bass lines are subtly integrated.

    Noise Cancellation and Sound Quality:
    The WF-1000XM5 excels not only in bass but also in overall sound quality and noise cancellation. Sony's industry-leading Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) technology ensures that you're immersed in your music, free from distractions even in bustling environments. Combined with Sony's renowned LDAC codec support, the audio fidelity is nothing short of exceptional, delivering crisp highs, lush mids, and that aforementioned impactful bass.

    Comfort and Fit:
    Comfort is paramount for extended listening sessions, and Sony has engineered these earbuds with precision to ensure a snug yet comfortable fit. The ergonomic design, coupled with multiple ear tip options, allows for a personalized fit that stays securely in place, whether you're commuting, working out, or simply relaxing at home.

    Battery Life and Connectivity:
    With up to 8 hours of playback on a single charge (and up to 24 hours with the charging case), the WF-1000XM5 ensures uninterrupted listening throughout your day. The inclusion of fast charging means you can get hours of playback with just a few minutes of charging—a lifesaver for those on the go. Plus, seamless Bluetooth connectivity and compatibility with voice assistants make for a hassle-free user experience.

    Overall, the Sony WF-1000XM5 stands as a testament to Sony's commitment to innovation and audio excellence. From its impressive bass quality to its unparalleled noise cancellation and comfort, these earbuds elevate the true wireless experience to new heights. With a score of 9 out of 10, I wholeheartedly recommend the WF-1000XM5 to anyone seeking premium sound quality and unmatched versatility in their earbuds.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Good replacement for Sony's WF-1000XM4, much better than Sennheiser's TW3.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 28, 2023
    My old pair of Sony's WF-1000XM4 needed to be replaced due to a known issue with a battery.

    I've decided to give Sennheiser's Momentum True Wireless 3 a go and they were a disaster. Could never fit my ears correctly, the noise cancelling seal was never good enough. They kept randomly disconnecting and I could hear noticeable sound quality drops every now and then.

    I have returned TW3's and bought Sony's WF-1000XM5.

    They are noticeably smaller and lighter than their predecessor. Both the case and earbuds. Sound quality is amazing, noice cancelling works great. Fitting them in the ears is not a problem, it's very straight forward, you don't even have to think about it. Also, they sit in the ears very well.

    No issues so far. I am hoping they will not have a problem with battery, same as WF-1000XM4's. Sony claim this problem has been resolved - we shall see. I decided to buy an additional 3 year insurance for these earbuds, just for the peace of mind. After all, they are a really expensive pair of earbuds. Wish I had done that with the old pair of XM4's.

    For those of you considering an upgrade from WF-1000XM4 - I doubt it's worth it; as long as your earbuds don't have an issue with battery and you are happy with their size - there's no real reason for an upgrade. Sound and noice cancelling are both at a similar excellent level.
    I wouldn't consider an upgrade myself, should my old pair still work as expected.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Good replacement for Sony's WF-1000XM4, much better than Sennheiser's TW3.

    My old pair of Sony's WF-1000XM4 needed to be replaced due to a known issue with a battery.

    I've decided to give Sennheiser's Momentum True Wireless 3 a go and they were a disaster. Could never fit my ears correctly, the noise cancelling seal was never good enough. They kept randomly disconnecting and I could hear noticeable sound quality drops every now and then.

    I have returned TW3's and bought Sony's WF-1000XM5.

    They are noticeably smaller and lighter than their predecessor. Both the case and earbuds. Sound quality is amazing, noice cancelling works great. Fitting them in the ears is not a problem, it's very straight forward, you don't even have to think about it. Also, they sit in the ears very well.

    No issues so far. I am hoping they will not have a problem with battery, same as WF-1000XM4's. Sony claim this problem has been resolved - we shall see.
