It truly deserves the title of king of noise reduction
Frankly after having the melomania one touch, the ear-phones of Sony are the best in term of music I never had a sound as beautiful with the active noise reduction and some adjustment on equalizer (squig.link) and Auto eq app you select Sony WF xm5 and the magic operates.
On the plus side:
Incredible noise reduction (no noise around even in the street) even without music there is only you and the music, however it takes time to adapt because it may surprise at first.
You can set the music to 13% for example with active noise reduction, which is enough and protects your ears.
The headphones easily last for 9 hours in AAC mode. I haven't managed to reach 12 hours, but I think it's doable.
The bass is monstrous with viper4android with the basic settings it's very average but passable if you have the possibility put viper4android or even wavelet
Negative point :
The box discharges quickly and smells a bit burnt at times, but nothing to worry about.
