> 3 dayDid not provide the advertised battery life - The headphones with a full charge lasted at best 3 hours under constant use for video calls. Unacceptable. Sound quality was amazing though.

> 3 dayThese are wonderful. They are much better than my Bose 35’s. Recently upgraded and noticed the Bose hadn’t updated they’re product in a while and bought these. No comparison. Sony XM5 wins!

> 3 dayI love everything about these headphones. I literally where them all day. They are beautiful and incredibly comfortable. The battery life is great and the adaptability of the NC feature to ambient is amazing. They are so smart I hardly need the app. Which is good because I don’t really like the app for them that much.

> 3 dayHad the Bose 700: The voice was course and very loud. I got piss*d, threw the Bose and broke them. Just as well because I got these. Nothing like seeking noise protection and your protection screams in your ears. Also, the Bose didnt have the same rich Bose sound, just me. These: They protect as low as 4hz. They also dont hold the settings which is frustrating, so the four stars. Super battery that charges in minutes. The voice is low and soft. These are the best noise cancelling headphones yet.

Greater than one weekOverall a good bluetooth headset. I own the XM4 and other Sony, Bose Quitecomfort, Sennheiser HD 600-800 devices. Comfort is a little better than the XM4. Wearing glasses I still have discomfort within an hour. Without glasses they dont overheat my ears for longer periods of time. The headband is slightly less comfortable than the XM4. Sound quality is an improvement that was noticeable. I did dropped down the 16khz to hear vocals better. The 360 on Tidal was barely noticeable in the difference. I would not pay for this feature alone when picking a streaming provider (my opinion). I use my wired open back Sennheiser HDs when at the computer, dac, etc.. Portable the XM4 shines. The way these collapse around your neck could have been designed to at least flip the ears down vs up. Case is nice, but similar to the bulky Bose. The do feel more durable than the XM4s, but not by much. Assistant - Google doesnt play well with the iphone, so Alexa is your best option for IOS users. I also have a pixel 6 pro and it worked as expected with both. Battery - Same as the xm4 which is great. Noise cancellation - Great and slightly better than the XM4s. Overall I think Sony sacrificed portability which is where I put these headphones purpose. Ill keep them, but the XM4 I personally wouldnt upgrade to the XM5 for the slightly better sound and cancellation.

> 3 dayIm a headphones fiend, have probably owned over 70, and these are the most comfortable Ive ever worn. I was impressed with the comfort of the Bose 35ii and Bose 45 but these are next level. Also they do everything theyre meant to: great sound quality, noise canceling, battery life. Some people complain that they dont fold up but I could care less. The only thing Im not crazy about is how they look but thats just my personal opinion, I know many people think theyre stylish. I think they have a Space Balls vibe. But damn theyre great.

Greater than one weekI want to start off by saying the sound quality is good and the noise cancelling is okay,i honestly do not get all the rave and 5 stars reviews,maybe it’s just me? These feel cheap to me,they are lighweight (which is a plus) but the material makes it feel like $30 walmart headphones.Since we’re on the topic of prices,these are heavily overpriced,i mean are you guys just all filthy rich to spend $400 on these headphones(seeing as they feel cheap) and be okay with it?I wouldn’t pay more than $200 for these headphones (which is what they should be priced at) so yeah i did end up returning them,the main issues being the price and the fact that they feel cheap.Also i found it to be a pain having to connect these to my phone everytime,whenever they were off my head for 5 minutes they’d go into sleep mode which was a pain in the as$ because i’d have to open the app,press the power button,go on my settings and try and reconnect them,i wish they would connect more faster like airpods that connect instantly,so yes these get a 3/5 stars for me
