my roommate bought me these for my birthday because he was "making passion" for eight hours a day for five straight days this one time and he didn't want me to hear it. i didn't know what the hell he was talking about but i was planning to be on vacation that week anyway. he didn't need to know that, so once he gave them to me i spent 5 beautiful days in the bahamas and the headphones really came in clutch, and he got to make all the passion he wanted. Win win.

I bought at this price from the same seller 4-6 weeks ago. I've been satisfied. Nothing wrong.

XM3's from Secondipity bought 2 years ago still going strong. I actually want them to break so I can get these 😂.

Headphones are a weird product that I can't ever seem to trust the internet on. I bought the XM5's brand new for $400 last year and returned them within a couple of days. Everything was flawless other than the SOUND. You know, the most important part of a $400 pair of headphones. Sony made the sound so crisp and clean to the point where it doesn't even resemble the sound of real music. Idk how to explain it any other way but they weren't for me. Ended up going with Bose quiet comfort ii earbuds and love them.

My xm4 just came in earlier today. I'm just using it for the gym. Xm5 better for that?

Edit: Xm4 seems to be better sweat resistant, and it folds. So looks like I got the right choice for the gym.

Do they accept "remorse" returns? Any restocking fee etc?
I got in on the XM4 $140 deal last year from this seller and returned mine as they were just not comfortable. I received a refund no questions asked. That said, I have heard that if you abuse the return policy that they may ban you from purchasing from their Ebay store.

At $200 this is a REALLY good deal. I've bought a ton from Secondipity and they've been great.

Have they gotten better? I ordered from them once and I got a crusty used headset. This is an awesome deal, and the warranty give me a little faith, but that Astro A50 I got once was garbage.

I can't say if they've gotten better, as I've literally never had an issue with them. Maybe you were unfortunate enough to get a fluke? But even then, they're really good about returns. It seems their exchange policy is just "you return, we refund, and you buy another", though.

Ordered a pair from this seller during November of last year and have had zero issues with my headphones. They operate flawlessly and are like brand new!

"Make Passion" needs to be Sony's slogan for their XM6 advertisement campaign.

Xm4 vs Xm5? I heard Xm5 has dynamic ANC that you can't stop and it acts weird?

Have bose QC35Ii and not satisfied with AnC during flights long or short. Plane noise is too much with them on.

Thoughts?

Is this good for work calls? QC35II transmits local External noises to the voice calls
In a different thread someone who purchased both said that the XM4 had better sound quality. But other people say the opposite is true.

Isn't it disconcerting that there's so many defectives for this model, enough to sell in the thousands through a refurb eShop?

I bought these a couple weeks ago and think they are great so far. The anc does turn on and off by itself (when you're talking for example), but I don't mind it. I could see that being annoying

I've used it for a few calls and haven't had any complaints
FYI the anc turning on and off is a toggle that you can change in the sony app.

They're not necessarily defective. They could have just been returned because someone didn't like the comfort or performance, or simply used them and had buyer's remorse. You could say that such a high level or returns in general is disconcerting, but that is a different issue than worrying about getting an actual defective product.

Great price. In for one and will return worst case (says free returns seller covers shipping). Been going back and forth between these and the Airpods Max as an Iphone user but at this price can't hurt to try.

Think I literally got the last one in black.
