Great product value for money
This is the best ANC earbuds you can buy. Better then apple earbuds. I use it almost all places like office, workout, flight etc. very good fit. The call quality is great on this. And when you are using this in flight you can feel the difference. Adaptive noise cancellation is great. There are tons of features in it. You just need to explore.I bought it during 2024 Diwali sale. Got it for 11500/- but that was very lucky. After that the price never came down more than 15K which is also great.I would strongly recommend this for daily use.Music quality is way above then anything in this segment.Sound clarity is great during calls.Charging is great. Keeps atleast 4-5 days including box. Fast charging is there and also wireless charging is a +1.Connectivity is great with any android or IOS device with multi point connection which seemlessly switch between two devices.Design is great and good to carry.
TESTER –
First ANC purchase
Let me break it down1. The case only charges buds 2 times. The bud usually last 5-6hrs so in a day you have to charge the buds twice and case once.2. The buds fit ear perfectly but small fatigue if wore more than 4hrs.3. The ANC is good at medium noises, but heavy noises hard to cancel.4. The touch button functions are not configurable, the app is slight good.5. Call and voice quality needs to be checked will update after.

Excellent product, but frustrating pre-order experience and missing promotional item
Overall: Excellent noise cancellation and sound quality, but frustrating pre-order experience and missing promotional item.(4 star for this product and less than 0 for other delivery and support)Pros:Best-in-class noise cancellation: Effectively blocks out ambient sound, making them ideal for noisy environments.Exceptional sound quality: Clear and balanced audio with powerful bass and crisp highs.Comfortable fit: Ergonomically designed earbuds stay secure in your ears even during extended listening sessions.Long battery life: Up to 36 hours of playback time with the charging case.Cons:Delays and communication gaps: I experienced numerous delays in receiving my order and encountered significant communication gaps throughout the process.Pre-order issues: Many customers reported missing promotional items and delays in communication from Amazon.Invalid coupon: After multiple buyers reported similar issues, Amazon provided a coupon code to claim the speaker. However, the code turned out to be invalid, adding to the frustration.Limited communication avenues: Difficulty reaching anyone beyond customer service for assistance. The lack of transparent communication and escalation channels was deeply frustratingDelivery : My attempts to resolve the missing speaker issue were met with delays, communication gaps, and unhelpful responses. I was repeatedly told the correct product was delivered, and no action was takeRecommendation:While the WF-1000XM5 earbuds offer exceptional sound quality and noise cancellation, the frustrating pre-order experience and missing promotional items detract from the overall purchase experience. While I appreciate the coupon code gesture, the invalid code further amplified the disappointment. If you can get past these issues, the earbuds themselves are excellent. However, if you value a smooth and reliable purchasing experience, you may want to consider other options. This review is based on my personal experience and may not reflect the experience of others. I encourage potential buyers to read other reviews and research the product thoroughly before making a purchase

Sony = sound and sound = sony
Sound quality is awesome. App support is also very good battery life is also quite good, but I have not completely used it. This is the day one Review. I will update after using for 15 to 20 days, but the first impression is very good. Sound quality is really very impressive. Crystal clear sound quality is there with an 8MM driver. This is best for those who love the quality of sound rather than bass bass is also quite good but treble is high so i â¤ï¸ it

Antes de ter o XM5, fui dono de um AirDots 3 da Xiaomi, e a diferença é nÃtida: construção, acabamento e recursos superiores (o que seria esperado, já que estamos falando de um produto de categoria premium).Qualidade de áudio, cancelamento de ruÃdo e opções de equalização através de um software muito completo… uma experiência única dentro da classe de in-ears.Porém, o preço é ponto fraco do produto. à difÃcil agregar valor correspondente a experiência. Poderia ser o melhor da categoria se estivesse na casa dos R$1.400,00

I had the xm4s previously and got these ones to upgrade from prime day. The design is much smaller and better, the comfort is incomparable to the xm4s as these you can forget are in your ears. The build quality is great and everything feels sturdy (minus the case) and the touch controls are better than the previous version. Overall these are amazing earbuds.ProsSound qualityMuntipoint connectionAmazing anc and transparencyLots of improvements software wise from xm4sSmaller case and buds over xm4sConsPoor case design (hinge feels flimsy still and construction feels worse than xm4s)PriceWould still recommend!!

Fones de ouvido excepcionais. Atender telefonemas com esse aparelho é muito confortável, nem se compara com as versões anteriores.

Thereâs a bit of possible Sony hate going on in some reviews, like others I got burned on a pair of WF-10004XM refurbished and one of the batteries started failing after a year. Wasnât worth the cost of repair. Have others from QCY and Soundcore that were surprisingly good for less cost. Also had trouble with refurbished headphones WH-1000XM4, luckily had added insurance. Cut to buying a new pair that have been flawless.Got the Sony WF-C700N a couple months ago to scratch my earbud itch. Very good for the price. If youâre not ready to throw down $300 for the XM5 theyâre a great alternative. Not quite as musical, but no gripes anyway. You can get picky about the throwback buttons but oh well.One comment before I get more specific on the XM5. I fully agree with another review that calls out Sony for how complicated their Sony Connect app has become. It could be simplified for people who donât want to get into the tech so much.Now, how do they sound? Iâm impressed and Iâm not using them to their full potential. Using with iPhone so Bluetooth SBC codec is the most basic and lowest quality solution (after digging into the codec question a bit more it does appear that the iPhone has the AAC codec also). However, with the help of Sonyâs equalizer and DSEE function Iâm very happy with the sound. I almost donât want to try them with a better codec and then have to go back. (Still applies with AAC, DSE does improve sound)I need treble boost for my old ears and having played bass no surprise I like a lot of bass. These donât disappoint. I did an A-B comparison with the XM4 headphones and they didnât have quite the low end but good and punchy with good definition between bass and drums.both can become nice and âgrowlyâ on the low end.Noise cancellation is very good, not as good as the headphones but after only a couple days I have been quite satisfied so far.Comfort level is better than the XM4 buds, but Iâm so pissed I wasted the money now I donât want to dig them out to compare audio! I think Sony really improved the fit and design to be lighter, more comfortable, and have impressive sound. Letâs just hope they found a better battery.Used overnight and had battery left in the morning but playing audiobook on timer so i couldnât say how long continuous playback.Iâll update after Iâve had them longer.(Update) battery life seems to be very similar to the XM4. Sometimes I have battery left in the morning sometimes it comes up short.Another follow up, comes with 4 sets of tips but apparently I have very large ear canals as Iâm unable to get a complete seal with the included buds. The large felt good at first but when I used the connect app to check for airtight seals I could not get them to seal. Fortunately I have many tips Iâve saved over the years and by mixing, matching, and testing I have a couple that seal. I even tried ordering extra large tips from a couple vendors and they didnât work either. Nice that Sony is including extra small but what about us with extra large needs! I do have a possible solution on the way, find a video on YouTube that shows how to use Sugro glue rolled up and inserted in the mushroom part of the tip. Press in the ear to get a fit and then allow to cure over night. Hoping it works, I have a few tips Iâd like to try this on. Was even investigating custom molded tips but for $150 plus Iâll try the Sugro hackâ¦8/5/23 tried the Sugro hack yesterday. Still have to work to get an airtight fit but it definitely helped.My opinion on the sound has not diminished. Excellent with what I listen too. A lot of classic rock but also new material from Elle King and others. Listening to Lourdes âRoyalsâ a very deep bass which presents low, solid, and clear. You can easily distinguish the bass and drums. The low rumbling bass of Pink Floyd âWelcome to the Machineâ couldnât be much better in any buds. Almost like I could feel it.Iâm now using the WF-C700n as my workout and dog walking buds. Sound signature is very similar but the bass is not quite as good. One thing they are lacking is the airtight fit check in the app. I had to use other tips and the Sugro mold hack to get a good consistent fit in both. The included tips are worthless to me and my big ears.I see a lot of criticism of the noise cancellation for the XM5. I have no way to measure so itâs pretty subjective but Iâm not disappointed. At least as good as the XM4. But with any ANC earbuds the airtight seal is critical.If youâre not ready to throw down $300 the WF-C700n are a very good alternative, but are not touch controlled, a single button on each side. Not quite as good on the low end but not disappointing either. In direct comparison you can hear the difference.I still think these are 5 star worthy. Iâd take off half a star because of the somewhat complex app but if you like to tinker with the sound and features, give it back. People who are not âtechnical mindedâ may find it intimidating. I find it useful but jammed with some features I wouldnât normally use, like automatically changing settings depending on location as an example. Some might find it useful but not me. The equalizer and clear bass functions are excellent. DSEE function makes a noticeable difference in sound quality. Happier with these than I was with the XM4. Just hope the batteries last, I would hope Sony changed from the $70 replacement cost batteries (not including labor) used in the XM4 as apparently so many people had problems with them dying out after a few months.9/22/23Used these today instead of the WF-C700n for my indoor cycling and to walk the dog. Usually I do those activities with the cheaper buds as for $300 I want to take every precaution to protect them. Soâ¦more feedback on the ANC. Definitely a difference on the bike with 2 pretty loud blower fans on. The WF-C700n does a very good job in the same situation but I could definitely tell a difference. Could hardly hear the fans at all and the WF-1000XM5 does have the superior sound performance. Note these blowers are loud enough that if I have my Apple Watch to close to them I get the over 90db warning. Theyâre not 90db from the bike but they are loud. These cancelled almost all the noise. With volume on my music I donât hear the fans at all.
