Amazing video i enjoyed it i went with the XM5'S because the earcups are like soft pillows in your head and are very comfortable the sound quality is best for me and they are light enough to wear them for hours i got them in the best color in my opinion out of the three offered the midnight blue ones

Sent mine off for warranty after less than a year of use. The touch pad had been randomly triggering after a few months of use then about 8 months in the headphones stopped charging. I supposedly they got liquid damage where part of the board had corrosion, which I genuinely think was from the condensation of my natural ear/side head sweat from using them as my daily driver for most of the time I had them. Not covered under warranty. My XM3’s have still kept going for a good few years now, under the same conditions I put the XM5s through. So I’m rather disappointed as all they are offering is for me to buy another set for half the cost of a new set, which will inflate the overall value I’ll have paid by a considerable amount. It’s a shame as they really are great headphones, but I think the Quality control of Sony in general isn’t as good as it used to be.

@ehabmakarem7856 used mine alot cycling most days. Within weeks I got phantom touches in the touchpad. And by 8 months they had corroded inside and stopped charging. Not covered under warranty. Short answer I really wouldn't recommend it. I have a newer pair now, but I'm being very careful when I do and don't use them. I keep them on a headphone stand so they can air out all the time rather than putting them in the case. This may help, but I've not had the new set long enough to determine if I will develop issues. Hope that helps

After the first few days, the hinges weakens a lot. The two ear thingy swings while wearing. It hurts for me to wear it, got to take off every 15 mins. Battery is great, anc is great, but why is it not in metal? Why use plastic. The cushions very deflated for me, it has stripes (like scars) for some reason. Sound quality is fine, but when u listen to musics, the Apple earbuds (wired) sounds so much better and much more comfortable. The only problem is it’s painful, doesn’t sound as good as the Apple wired earbuds, poor build quality (not all as my friends’ xm5 are fine)

My hinges are fine and I've used them a lot this year, I'm in general more careful than the average person so I might not be a good benchmark. The fact that these hurt for you is crazy to me as these are by a mile the most comfortable headphones I've ever worn, might just be that you have issues with hinges. For the material, one of these headphones best feature is that they're very light and comfy. These weigh 250gr versu the 380+ grams of the Airpods Max which is a deal breaker for me as it makes them uncomfortable to wear for long sessions and traveling. Metal also tends to get much warmer or colder depending on the environment temperature while plastic is way more bearable.

I was really excited for these when they were coming out. I went to try them out right away when the store demo unit was available but was already thinking I'd be walking home with a pair before even auditioning them. Really wanted to like them but felt underwhelmed by their sound quality and I'm also not an audiophile or anything but felt like they aren't worth the price (420 euro if I remember correctly). I like how they look not a fan of all the plastic tho especially for the price. I went back and gave them another try when price dropped to 300 euro and for some reason sounded better so maybe there was something wrong with the first few demo units I tried. Basically just want to ask what do you think of the sound quality from these as a musician? Paired with an iPhone or a mac. I've done so much research and have yet to come to a conclusion on what headphones to get and have since gotten another pair of airpod pro 2's by default.

How are the hinges holding up? I saw a lot of people who experienced broken hinges on their xm5 and mine hasn’t broken yet but it does move laterally when I move them and see the middle metal hinge so worried

How good is xm5's noise cancellation really? If a person continuously sings shrill high notes, will it block all the sounds, will the sound of a dog barking be blocked as if there is no dog there? Only the quiet like on a deserted island is what I'm looking for. The Sony store near me does not allow product testing.

Noise cancellation is good with continuous frequencies. Think the hum of a jet engine or maybe loud street noise. things like dogs and someone shrilling will be muffled but not deserted island level. Consider something like a pair of 3M Peltors if you want desert island like quiet in the noisiest of places. Not going to get you the best sounding audio and will be uncomfortable at least for me, but if cutting down noise is your primary focus, check out those.

I'm currently using Baseus headphones that are advertised as noise canceling up to 50db, but even when turned on at the highest level, the singing still distracts me. It's annoying when you're concentrating hard on your work and suddenly the person singing comes back and you can't continue with the flow because of the annoying screeching of high notes. (1) Is it good enough to completely go unnoticed when someone is singing high notes? I want to work deeply, without being interrupted by anything. (2) I wanted to know what would distract you from the flow even with the highest noise canceling level on.

Well the noise canceling is not locked into place it will adjust based on what noise is heard and how loud it gets it will go in the XM5'S will study it and remove it if possible I do have 3 parrots 🦜 a male ringneck and two females when they scream they do get removed and I don't hear them at all

they are ok. I usually default to my built in mics on my MacBook because with the M-series chips they do more voice isolation that sounds better than any headphone in my opinion.
