Sony WH-1000XM5 is overrated — here's why
By ChillDragon399 · REVIEW · 2/5 stars · About Sony WH-1000XM5
I know this is an unpopular opinion but Sony WH-1000XM5 really isn't worth the hype. I've had persistent issues with reliability and the customer support has been disappointing. For the price point there are better alternatives that deliver more consistent results. Maybe I got a bad unit but my experience has been frustrating.
