Amazon "Like New" pairs were $119 a few weeks ago on Prime Day (or $104 if you stacked with "15% off up to $100" AMEX offer).

Community Reviews

Refurbished Sony WH1000XM5 headphones are drawing attention for strong noise canceling and premium sound at a steep discount, with the deal hitting an all time low and a two year warranty attached. The price can drop further with offers or a coupon, and accepted offers cluster around $105 to $120. Several units arrived looking brand new with cables tucked in the case, and the retailer is being treated as legitimate. The main concern is durability, especially bumpy headbands and hinge breakage that may not be covered. A compelling value if you are comfortable watching the build closely.

  • The refurbished unit can arrive looking brand new with no visible fingerprints or dust.

  • Charging and audio cables can be included inside the headphone case compartment.

  • Noise canceling performance can work flawlessly when the headphones are used.

  • Upgrading to suede Dekoni ear pads can improve comfort and sound quality.

  • Hinge breakage can occur on multiple units in the same spot, and coverage may be denied.

    DrAwkwardDrAwkward

  • The headband can be bumpy, which may indicate a prior return and clunky repair.

    Sitzpinkler

  • The warranty process may involve an attempt to fix first, followed by reimbursement if repair is not possible.

  • Some orders may include the WH-1000XM6 instead of the WH-1000XM5, requiring model verification in the Sony app.

I just bought one last week. The headband is bumpy, which makes me think it was originally returned because the headband broke and they fixed it with a clunky repair. It functions, but if the aesthetic bothers you, don't buy it.

How the warranty claim process works? If it breaks they reimburse you?

Look up squaretrade, now called allstate, yes the car insurance company. I've used them many times. They make an attempt to fix it possible, probably not... And they then reimburse you

The headbands have always been reported to be troublesome. The XM4s even more so because they folded. I've had my XM4s for 4 or 5 years and they are still in great condition but they are always stored in the case when not in use.

Have you used them? It's an awesome product performance. The only inconvenience is the folding. Otherwise a solid performance headset.

Similar experience with my XM2- head band cracking started being reported wayyy back when I got my XM2. Years and years later, my XM2 is still going strong with degraded pleather, which is well expected for headphones of its age.

I upgraded my ear pads to the suede dekoni's. They are a lot more comfortable and have better sound quality. I'll do the same with these.

Here is a link to the dekoni's for the xm5s
