    Been out the loop for a bit, are we still expecting the XM6 this year?

    Wives would say anything in order to get us to send our gadgets back. Don't believe her!

    My rule is if everything works perfectly do not update firmware with Sony lol

    I quite like the APP2 method to change volume with the slide up or down with the finger, kind of makes more sense than furiously tapping on either ear. However, saying that, it does the job so can't complain too much lol

    The XM4 were always discounted so I imagine these will be fluctuating in price with offers now and again. I only managed 10% with unidays through my son which took the sting off a tiny bit lol

    Must be my old ass eyes, it looks like the same hue to me lol. They should definitely release some special edition colours as they did with the WH headphones series. I would definitely consider grabbing another pair if they did.

    I prefer black, looks more sleek. I wish they'd do an optic white version of the xm5. I had the silver (off white) xm4 as well, it reminds me of the colour of the late 80s early 90s computers.

    ha I hear you. I prefer the xm4 sound if I'm honest for out and about, they were more musical and engaging esp with EDM. These xm5 are def more detailed and guess more "hi-fi" sounding. You're in the same boat as me, I never found the xm4 uncomfortable either but once I tried the xm5, it was...

    Have you used ANC earphones before? Perhaps your exceptions were too high lol or as the issues the poster mentioned above.

    Go on the app, see if you have noise cancellation and ambient mode selected in the settings?

    Yes today. Perfectly fine. I thought the xm4 did a good job on the wind front too.

    Most Impressed with the comfort and ambient mode on these. Much better than before. ANC to me seems weaker than xm4 to me. But no longer have both to compare. Could be a tip issue. Will try the large tips tonight but don’t think it’s a sizing issue but durometer of the foam perhaps. Edit...

    Was surprised with the fast shipping from Sony. Z1R is awesome, I guess I have kind of grown use to that sound so want it in everything lol I feel like the XM4 were a nice on the move wireless version of them. Perhaps that’s why my ears haven’t got use to the xm5. I’ll most likely keep them, I...

    Sounds like you’ll prefer this version! I like the warmth and low end, it was fun and engaging and that’s what I’m after when out and about.
