Bought this a month ago due to the student discount, very pleased with how it is but also how quickly it arrived. Noise cancellation is amazing with ambient mode.

Faulty ANC
The noise cancelling feature on this thing looks faulty, I have had XM-4 for about 6 months , I bought XM5s beacause my XM4 got water damaged. I can feel the ANC difference between XM4 and XM5. I have just updated driver for this headphone but the ANC is still faulty.

There is an serious issue with hinge. It broke with basic daily usage. I purchased it in May and within 6 months it broke. It was really unbelievable, no accident drop and no harsh usage. I

Good but traps hair
So the reason I upgraded from my WH4 was that this model is not foldable, and I thought it would not trap my hair as the previous one, but somehow it still traps my hair so that's kinda disappointing

Rubbish and third class plastic hinges
I bought it with a very happy heart but I really am very disappointed by the design flaw that results in broken hinge. Despite using it very delicately I still ended up with broken hinge.
