    i love the sound of Sony WF1000mk3/4/5's, however every single pair i've had, (and my friends) , have much less than quoted, playblack time, but, even worse, poor lifespan of the battery, i.e. less than 2yrs. Simply check the bad amazon reviews of all versions inc mk3, 4 & 5.

    Dropping £150+ for 2years of usage leaves a sour taste. As much as people hate Apple, the battery life (in real life conditons) is far superior, hence voting cold

    The batteries are easily replaceable, they're Z55H Zenipower branded, £5 delivered from China but around £15 on Amazon UK.

    ebay.co.uk/itm…wcB

    Multiple YT videos available on the 5 min process of replacement, I linked to one in another post.

    I easily get around 6-8h playback time on mine after 2 years, there may have been a fault with your pair. At least for me, the sound signature for music on these is far superior to my partner's Airbuds Pro. I'm also glad to support a company that doesn't expect its customers to throw away a £200 item after the battery dies - try replacing the battery on an Airpod!! (edited)

    I have these and they are great quality and comfy try from here as you get a Sony backed 3 year warranty emailed to you after purchase

    This is definitely worth the extra £10 for 3yr warranty. Had my eg-1000xm4’s for a little while and after 2yrs they seem to give me intermittent issues with voice calls and Bluetooth. Although they may have been through the washing machine… good headphones

    Think I may have to ditch my AirPod pros for these. 
    24hrs playback is crazy. (edited)

    I heard they are not comfy at all.

    Thank you! I've loved my WF-1000XM4s but they are on the way out so I was waiting for the refurbished XM5s to be back in stock!
    pauby's avatar
    They MX5's are a very poor replacement for the MX4's. I'd save your money and look for something else.
  5. jimbo001's avatar
    Have the MK4 and they're brilliant. The mk5s are supposed to be a decent improvement.
