Superior sound quality and comfort
This is a huge step up from the previous WH1000XM4 in terms of sound quality and noise cancellation. The transparency is also very advanced and in very real time. Very cosy on the ear and a timeless minimal style.

The best noise cancelling headphones I've tried
I got these headphones because I'm autistic and needed the full noise cancelling option. I haven't quite learnt how to work them properly yet (I'm not tech minded) but I love the fact you can cover one side with your hand whilst in noise cancelling mode to hear something without taking the headphones off. The sound quality is really good for music. It's a shame there's no paper instructions as like I said I'm not very good at technology. I have tried to find instructions but even so I would definitely recommend these headphones so far. A little pricey but worth it just for the freedom I now have to go in our garden or to a busy cafe etc... I do wish there was a way to make them wireless for when you can't connect to Bluetooth. Maybe there is bur I just haven't worked it out yet 🤷♀️

Super headphones, quality
Awesome, sound is great, comfortable to wear, as well as listening to music generally, it’s helping my barbershop chorus rehearsal as I can hear the different parts so clearly. Can switch settings so aware of surroundings, very impressed. Fabulous quality headphones, would recommend, farewell fiddly earbuds, am a headphone girl!

Just perfect
I bought these because of the comfort reviews and so glad I did. Never had a pair as good as this. The sound quality has blown me away.

Just all round brilliant headphones, for me.
Excellent headphones, far better than I could have imagined; very happy with my purchase. A friend advised my buying these headphones. I purchased for the 'ambient, adaptive sound control' of my surroundings. And these 'ambient, adaptive sound controls' are brilliant. And then to discover music sounds absolutly fab' too! Plus I find the headphones very comfortable. And the 'Sound Connect App' very useful and helpful.

Hi Ellie,
thank you for your question.
Although the WH-1000XM5 ear pads provide comfort and a decent amount of sealing, these are on-ear headphones, and some sound leakage might occur at very high volumes.

Hello Ellie
I can advise the following for: Sony WH1000XM5 Over-Ear Wireless Headphones - Silver.
The Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones have good sound leakage performance, meaning they rarely leak audio to the surrounding environment when used at reasonable volume levels. They are designed to contain audio well, allowing for private listening even in quiet environments.
