My brother and I both bought the XM4 headphones within a month from each other. We were both impressed with the sound quality and liked the features. Just after the warranty both $350 headphones failed to charge. Now they are just $350 wired headphones with ZERO features. Both headphones were never abused always put back in the case and never tossed around left in a hot or cold car or left on a charger for hours on end. I don’t think I will ever buy Sony headphones again if they don’t last. This wasn’t just one and done. But two headphones having the SAME ISSUE at the SAME time. I think my money is better spent elsewhere! * To make matters worse, nobody near me will repair “broken” headphones out of warranty. I was told “usually when headphones break people just throw them out.” $350 throw away junk. Perfect way to describe Sony headphones.

[@BarcelonasHotCrowd]

Interesting that the AirPods Pro2 needed slightly more treble/brighter/alive sound. Having bought these I agree BUT the remedy is really easy to sort! Go into 'ACCESSIBILITY' these an AirPods setting. Once you've entered the Audio Accessibility Settings, go into 'Headphone Accommodations' settings and you'll see 'Balanced tone' which is the default, 'Vocal Range' and 'Brightness'. Set it as Brightness and WOW the sound truly comes alive. Now I'm happy with the sounds of the AirPod Pro's 2. Not 100% impressed with the noise cancellation though but I guess that was due to the fact that I had headphones with ANC previously.

[@StuWright]

yea over the ear headphones anc is better, love my Sony WH-1000XM4`s

[@74beef]

Given the AirPods are designed by ex/current beats employees I don’t think that should be surprising… same tech, just re branded lol

[@jsl6155]

Brightness feels like the lower mids and bass disappear even if it brings up the treble. Overall, doesn’t matter how you EQ them, the driver on the AirPods isn’t as good. The only reason I keep my AirPods isn’t because of the Siri features.

[@the_flushjackson]

One aspect you left out, for future reviews, is the activity comparison -- what do these feel like, how do they perform when you're doing physical activities (working out, running, etc).

[@givemeemoretree6800]

I also used to struggle with the fit en comfort of the air pods pro 2. The fix was turning them upside down while switching sides, now I sometimes forget that I have them in😊

[@ElDapperCaballo]

I agree with your conclusion, they play to different strengths. At work I would want the airpods since I'm being interrupted all the time, so having a great transparency mode and having something that meshes well with my macbook and iphone are things I would want for work. I'm not really enjoying my music anyways because I've got work to do editing videos. Now if I'm at home, I want to listen to that new soundtrack, a movie, whatever new CD I just got, or I'm traveling, 100% I would take the Sony.

[@manasonnaise]

I noticed that you are using the 1st gen AirPods Pro in the 2nd gen case. Did you accidentally use the wrong pair for the comparisons?

[@my_brain_trembles]

How is the comfort during long listening session ? Do you do exercises with them, if yes do they stay in place or do they need some tingling while jogging etc ?

[@abrahamroberts2040]

Day 2 with the XM5s and they are already my favorites. The ANC is even better than Bose QCII and Airpod pro 2 so far and I love that I can connect to any 2 Bluetooth devices at a time. Battery life is fantastic! The only criticism so far is the ambient mode is not as good as Airpod pro 2 transparency. XM5s are still babies so this may get better with some firmware updates in the future. We'll see, but so far - I'm impressed.

I own both of these earbuds. The new Sony have impressed me more than any other headphones I have ever used. To my ears they are the best sounding earbuds out right now and iv tried all the new flagship earbuds. They are literally in a different league to the airpods pro when it comes to sound. It's not even close. Anc and transparency is much closer though and harder to call. Like I say the Sony's have absolutely blown my mind with their second to none sound.

I got the XM3, XM4 and now the XM5. They have continued to get better every iteration. All of them still work great so there's always a back up. I've worn them for working out and hiking, they've taken a beating and still awesome.

[@That_One_Guy115]

How does the xm4 compare to the xm5 ? I lost my left earbud and considering the price of the replacement its not worth getting and may as well upgrade to the xm5

[@DARTHSKATER7]

@thatoneguy9809 Honestly just go for the XM5 now. Much smaller size, great sound and fit and the battery is pretty good. These buggers are slippery and that's my only issue but after you've used them a while they get a little grippy. In my opinion they should have just did the soft matte finish everywhere. I use them all day at work and then on my way home i pop them into the charging case for some juice for my after work run. Sweat or rain doesn't bother them at all. I even accidentally submerged them in the bathtub.... don't ask... I forgot they were on... no issues

Did you experience any battery problems? Planning to buy XM5 since my airpods pro 1 stopped working and they said the cost to fix it is like buying an new one so its better to buy a new one but I dont wanna go with apple anymore.

[@letsgowalk]

I have been using regular AirPod 3s, since I can’t stand IEMs, but I was oh so close to giving IEMs another shot during Prime Day. The reason why I hate them so much is because they really irritate my ears, and I can also hear every step and breath I take, not to mention chewing when eating. This dates back to the wired headphone days, when things were even worse due to “microphonics.” However, these days with ANC, IEMs seem to be a requirement. I was scouring around during Prime Day, and just when I was about to purchase a pair, I noticed that Amazon has their new Echo Bud 3s that revert back to the semi-open design (ala AirPod 3 style). And they are super cheap to boot! I couldn’t resist, and jumped on those instead. I am actually extremely impressed with them. They are super comfortable, and the bass is amazing! The best thing is that I can still hear my environment around me when I’m out and about.

The foam tips wouldn't keep it in my ear, and the foam came off the plastic one lining and stuck in my ear. I've never had that with silicone tips. I asked Sony about compatible silicone tips, and they doubled down on the foams. I returned them shortly after buying.

I don't find a reason to use sony buds because if I prefer usability, I would choose Galaxy Buds 2 Pro for my Galaxy phone and Airpods 2Pro for my iPhone. I can tell with confidence that both of their sound quality is good enough for most people. If I do prefer sound quality, I can just simply go for Sennheiser if I want clear and calm sound or for the Bose if I want more bass or dynamic sound. I would only choose the Sony if my phone is Xperia. I even think JBL has good buds as well. Sony buds are just a hype imo. Last year's 1000xm4 were never close to Sennheiser momentum series when I compared them.

[@demon6937]

I like sennheiser but their earbuds are too bulky for me looking like a Frankenstein specially the case. the stealth on the android side is the galaxy buds.

[@rivandianjas]

Great video! Minor feedback: when you talk about design of the buds, I think there's more to it than just looks. For example in Airpods Pro, the stem design can somewhat help keeping the earbuds in place when I'm doing pinch or swipe gestures, while in XM4 I struggle to keep the buds in place while doing swipes. This can probably due to the eartip size as well but not sure, so I'm actually curious about how it feels now in XM5s with the new design. Hope you can add scenarios like this when talking about a product's design in future videos.

[@fireeffect6712]

Your doing swipe in xm4 ??? It doesn't have any gestures with swiping !? And with the foam tips i never had them slip or fall !! (I use them 6h a day 7/7 for work cleaning and outside work ! Like i have done everything with them !! They are the only ones that never fall!!)

Give it a year or so…. Thats what I said until mine died. My brother bought a pair and I liked them so bought me one a month later. Both of them died within a month from each other. Just randomly stopped charging. Won’t even acknowledge a charger. Tried many different charges and cables and replaced the battery. NOTHING. They are terrible quality. What is the odds of two headphones failing at the same age within a day. Both headphones were never left in a hot or cold vehicle, left on a charger for countless hours. Both were put in their cases when done and never thrown around dropped or abused. They were both babied and both failed at the same time. Never again buying Sony headphones. I’ve been happy with their AVRs and plan to buy a Sony tv in the future and like the playstations. But money is best spent on different headphones. I bought my dad a pair of JBL live 660s over a year ago and they still going strong. JBL will be my next purchase. The JBLs have a better build quality and feel more sturdy as well.

[@KL-xv5gj]

I don’t believe in the hypes and specs of Sony ANC earbuds nowadays. The upgrades are evolutionary with minor tweaks. ANC still cannot rival Bose latest ANC earbuds and AirPods Pro 2. Call quality still a problem, except LinksBuds S has the best call quality, and overall ANC and sound are reasonably very good compared with XM4 and XM5 earbuds. Battery life is the weakest part for Sony ANC earbuds, including XM4 and LinksBuds S. I doubt about now XM5 can deliver all the promises on ANC, call quality and sound performance. I use XM3, XM4, LinkBuds S, and AirPods Pro 2 currently. I am most happy with LinksBuds S and AP2. Surely I won’t waste money on XM5 in this economy. Its edge is only minimal when compared with many ANC earbuds in the market. Unlike few years ago, Sony ANC earbuds and headphones were something more.

Shoutout to the camera person for keeping it organic. Feels like I am in the room with you. If image stabilization gets any better, this style will be harder to do! Crazy to think about.

Are they louder? The xm4s were not as loud in my opinion

My AirPods whistle when on transparency mode. It’s terrible and they run out of power to quickly. I hope these are better.

AirPods for the win, hands down. I want something that works with minimal effort and input from me, the user. The AI EQ on Apple is perfection for me. I wear my AirPods for 10 hours a day at work for phone calls and at the gym. I feel like foam tips would cause issues. The AirPods have floating tips that fit perfectly. Not to mention Apples transparency from that H2 chip. In terms of sound quality I know the AirPods aren’t the best but it’s good enough and the call quality is great. Great review.

This, even if the sony had 2x the sound quality I would still go for the airpods because ease of use. No need to be squeezing any eartips take them in and out just to get a fit. No need for an app with a million settings. They sound good and work right out the box. Also seamless connectivity between apple devices is top tier if youre already in the apple ecosystem. One underrated feature is how amazing the spatial audio sounds when paired with apple tv 4k. Love these! Might give the sonys a try but so far the airpods pros are the best wireless earphones for me.

Everytime I see a VS thumbnail...my mind automatically goes to the Voice Over dude from the Epic Rap Battles of History...."Who Wins....You Decide." 🤣

One of the features of Sony is battery drainage issues after one year of very light use 😀

How is this when lying down in bed sideways? Is it any more comfortable than the airpods?

Are the Title on Video a Littles Different, Instead of WF1000XM5, Nice review Video i am Confused with my choice type, tho i am on ecosystem side since i own full apple products

[@supergooglelee]

They are literally in different classes in terms of sound quality. The only use for my AirPods Pro 2nd Gen is to listen when I sleep coz the Sonys are too large for that purpose. Btw I listen almost 24x7 and I have gone through six pairs of AirPods Pro, each of them have gone bad one way or another. My XM4s never had any problem and I am hoping my XM5 will hold as strong.

I’m wondering about the longevity of these earbuds. I had my AirPod pro gen I for three and a half year now and it start to noticeably decrease in battery and right earbud start to have a vibration noise, but I’d say 3 and a half years of everyday use is a great bargain for these earbuds. I would like to switch to Sony but doesn’t know if they’ll last. Has someone has experience in these and can advise? 🙏

[@strangerwe9776]

Did you buy the sony?

[@kblanc955]

Does using the sonys on an iphone not work that great than using the airpods ? I heard that they say iphone cant benefit from hi res and that type of stuff

[@xL9Px]

I bought a pair of Sony link buds s but they had a connection problem with my iPhone. They were super comfortable though I wonder if these are better. AirPods hurt my ears
