Great headphones, potentially flawed hinge

So far since purchased I've enjoyed these, great sound quality, great design, good anc. Only thing is, many owners of these have the hinge eventually break, seems to be a weak point for all. With proper care and use of the case this hopefully won't be an issue though!

Sony Let Me Down—Not Buying Again
2 out of 5 stars
- 5 days ago
originally posted on sony.com
Just over a year after purchase—right past the factory warranty—the swivel connection cracked. I carefully superglued it, but that only extended its life by a month. A repair costs $150 to $200, nearly the same as the current sale price. I’m extremely disappointed in the build quality and Sony’s refusal to offer assistance, especially considering my original $400 investment. If you want great Bluetooth features and sound, you're better off putting your money into the more durable WH-1000XM4. As for me, I’ll be looking beyond Sony for my next purchase.

I bought the headphones before a trip abroad as I wanted noise cancelling for the long haul flights and they work like a dream. so much easier to hear the movie and great for listening to music. They really cut out the noise of the plane.

Amazing. I have multiple brand headphones from Apple to beats to Boise and these are my favorite. The battery, Bluetooth connection are better and the sound is great

Stonedbanana - 9 days ago, Verified purchaser
Do not buy these if you plan on wearing them every day. There are three pairs in my family and every single one has broken at the structurally flawed pivot point for the earcup within two years. Some below that point, some above, and broke above after the bottom break was repaired and reinforced. I bought my first pair to replace the XM3. I had that pair for over for years and I accidentally broke them by putting them in loosely in my laptop bag while flying across the country. These hinges worried me from day one so I keep them in the case when I'm not wearing them and mine still broke twice within a month. I should have gotten the XM4s.

An amazing selection of features,a great number of which can be adjusted to your own personal taste though the App, their lightweight construction and superb comfort makes them superb for prolonged listening... which is enabled by the long battery life. The connection range is also impressive but does vary ( surrounding environment or property construction) and the noise cancelling ability is very impressive, with a simple sensor on the ear cup to disable,pause,skip etc etc...so far I'm impressed with them.

Lightweight and very comfortable. Can be wore over a long period of time with a remarkable ANC function. Very good for travelling, noisy environment, study and gym. While walking on the road NC function not advisable better to be switched to ambient for safety purposes.

I have had this for a few weeks to replace a pair of headphones from another brand They are simple to use and the sound quality is great and they are also great aesthetically. On buying these I know hey did not fold in the same way the predecessor did, but as I only occasionally use these for travel this is not a bad thing to mark down Overall very happy with this

Light, bulkier, sound quality is amazing. Learning how to control the headphones without paper instructions is a bit naff. I don’t like the case too texturised. Noise cancelling is cool. I use Bose Ultra too so comparing them in detail. A bit sweaty over the ears after a while? Good value but how many are replacing their M3’s?

This is my last Sony product ever. I have WH1000MX5. These headphones have a ridiculous feature called Speak to chat which stops your music if you utter one word from your mouth. Even a sigh. Worst feature I have ever seen on a product. That’s not even the worst part. Despite repeatedly going through the app on disabling the feature, it still miraculously starts on its own. I wrote to the product support, I stopped automatic update, but this still never stops bothering me. Buy Bose or Apple and stop yourself from a life of frustration.
1 reply from Sony North America Customer Support team - 8 days ago
Hi Hrushi, We regret to hear that you are not satisfied with the WH-1000XM5. Sony's commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority. For optimum performance, make sure that the software version of the headphones is up-to-date (via the Sony Sound Connect app). The Speak-to-Chat function may suddenly activate even though it is disabled in the Sony Sound Connect app. To help prevent this issue, avoid inadvertently touching the right earcup (a two-finger touch activates Speak-to-Chat) or temporarily turn off the Touch sensor control panel in the app. -Open the Sony Sound Connect app. -Tap the System tab. -Disable Touch sensor control panel. Hope this helps. In case you need further assistance, please contact our product support team via phone call or chat through this link: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=headphones Sincerely, -Ralph

I had a few requirements when choosing headphones - these were the only ones on the market that ticked all my boxes so I chose them. They have exceeded my expectations though. They fit my small head. They are comfortable and completely cover my ears. - not difficult to wear with earrings. They do not squash the arms of my glasses. They charge quickly. the case is solid and well designed. Charle lasts ages. noise cancelling is amazing - the feature where it reacts to voice and stops music so you can talk is genius. Covering the right ear with your hand is by far the most useful feature if you are a commuter. Swiping in the outside to skip tracks of for volume etc works really well, nice and easy. Overall I couldn't be more pleased.
