Pros
Sony's headphones provide an immersive auditory escape from the cacophony of jet engines and cabin chatter. They look and feel great, the sound quality is excellent -- both hearing and the voice quality when using the microphone for making calls -- an... Read More
The xm5s are a portal to a serene audio oasis in any environment. They are a must-have for anyone who values both pristine sound and peace of mind. The noise-cancellation is top-of-the-line, even in tough environments.
The sony wh-1000xm5 headphones are wireless, noise-canceling headphones. They provide excellent noise cancellation. The only gripe i have is with zoom and the auto pause.

Sound quality is better than my beyerdynamics ($500 headphones).

The noise cancellation calibration is automatic so when you first put them on you will hear everything around you and then in under 10 seconds the world will quiet down being almost silent a lot of the time

Into to my not picky things there could be a little more foam the case is kind of big the touch pad can be very sensitive but also hard to use at times and then this might just be a me thing or something i’m doing but sometimes the headphones will just randomly make beeping noise
