I've had these since day 1. The price is great. For anyone wondering how these compare to the XM4s, here are some pros & cons:

PRO:
- Smaller earbuds and case
- Claimed to have better battery durability (XM4s battery capacity significantly dropped within a year of heavy use)
- Sound on par with XM5 despite smaller size
- Replaced the spoken status with chimes (end result, quicker to resume playing)
- Senses touch more regularly than the XM4, which was pretty finicky

CON:
- New charging case can't fit large ear gels, resulting in poor connection/failed charging/accidental connection to phone
- This is the biggest annoyance as it requires me to remove the gels to charge them every day.
- Prefer the matte finish of the XM4 (as do many others)
- A little too sensitive to touch - I wear them to bed and on rare occasions, they are triggered by the pillow when by rolling over
Great deal but after the XM4 firmware debacle, I am not very sure about 90days warranty. I will personally wait for it to be on eBay with the 2 years warranty. Or buy the extended warranty if you really cannot wait.

This deal is huge. These were probably just bought and returned with minimal wear.

Are these worth an upgrade over the WF-1000XM5? I just sent my XM4s in for warranty service because of the batteries. Before I sent them in I purchased some cheap XM4s and new batteries off Aliexpress to keep me going. So I will probably have two perfectly good pairs of XM4s for a while.
One review I read stated the XM5s aren't as good at canceling low frequency noise as the XM4's - I use these on a bike trail that is parallel to train tracks. My main problem with the XM4s is that calls break up after a short duration but I don't know if that is a problem with XM4s or a problem with my iPhone.

They've been posted many times in the past on slickdeals. I would say so unless something changed recently

Phone call quality and noise cancellation during phone call seems to be pretty bad from reviews I've seen. The Linkbuds seems to cancel noise a whole lot better. I'm not sure why these top tier earbuds are performing so badly?
