The WH-1000XM5 stands out for strong noise canceling and very good sound in a lightweight, soft-cushioned design. The cabin noise test is dramatic, and the headphones feel light on the head. Comfort is less consistent because the cups are shallow and the thinner band can cause pain during longer sessions. The hinge design is the biggest concern, with repeated breakage and warranty headaches reported. On Windows PCs, handsfree telephony may need to be disabled to avoid terrible audio, making this a capable but fragile-feeling pick.

  • The noise cancelling performs very well on a jet, making cabin noise feel less overwhelming.

  • The ear cushions feel very soft, which can help with comfort during listening sessions.

  • The headphones can feel light to wear, which may reduce fatigue during longer use.

  • On Windows PCs, disabling handsfree telephony can restore much better audio quality.

    BoastfulTent411

  • The hinge design can be prone to breaking, even when the headphones are new, used, or remanufactured.

    Jf95

  • Warranty coverage may be limited for eBay purchases, and Sony may deny warranty access.

    RelaxedPencil532

  • The thinner headband can cause piercing pain after a few hours, leading to a return to XM4.

    EfficientChannel650

  • On Windows PCs, handsfree telephony can make audio sound very poor unless it is disabled.

Obligatory buyers warning, XM5 hinges are very prone to breaking regardless of new, used or remanufactured.

I got these from the amazon resale deal last month. The noise cancelling is excellent on a jet. When you take the headphones off you realize how loud it is inside the cabin. Comfort isn't the best due to the shallow cups. You may find yourself adjusting them often. That's the only problem I have with them, but it's tolerable. So far so good with the hinges.

With the 2 year warranty would you say it would be worth getting?

Personally no, I had warranty on mine and even with that they still broke again after exchange with no coverage after the first claim. So it's not a matter of if it will break, but a matter of when it will break/break again. Headset is absolutely amazing sound quality, but the hinge is the absolute Achilles heel to it. It would be better if with saving for XM6 that improved the hinge design or just going with XM4 which while slightly less sound quality (particularly with noise cancellation) I think the design just makes that trade off worth it. Also as someone else mentioned, they're rather uncomfortable due long use due to a thin band vs XM4. I use a pad cover on mine to make it more comfortable for longer.

Lightest headphones I've ever owned. Ear cushions very soft.

This is true I've seen a lot of this. Also I've tried on both and I personally have the XM4s because they fit over my ears better

same plus sony will do everything they can to deny the warranty when it's an ebay sale!

this ebay seller can claim to be a sony reseller but bottom line is sony only allows warranty access from a few official retailers.

Just got the XM6's for $260. But I keep hearing there's basically no difference besides the new hinge and foldable. Any thoughts on maybe getting these for $60 cheaper?

Used XM4s for 4 years before grabbing these open-box. Everything is excellent except the thinner band causes piercing pain after a few hours. I honestly thought I was having migraines. Back to my XM4s until I see a decent deal on XM6.
