Mad respect for Flossy for keeping it real and not sponsored

I cant believe you went with non paid review. Floss your the true King of Tech reviews. Hands down you deserve God Tier ranking. This is just a small thanks for all your hard work and keeping it real. Thank you from Brisbane Australia. Love you bro

Mad respect for giving these the review they deserve and respectfully declining the sponsored video.

12 years ago I started a new job that required a lot of travel so I bought a pair of Sony wired noise canceling earbuds. I still use them to this day! Was waiting for the right tech to come together and this is it. To have wireless noise cancellation earbuds like these is an incredible technology leap in a decade. Can’t wait to get them!

You know these are God tier earbuds when Flossy breaks his promise to not sing.

The best part about the WF-1000XM5 is the fact that hopefully it will motivate Soundcore to push out Liberty 4 Pros

Pre ordered these earlier today. I do a lot of welding & stuff in a noisy shop and needed some new ones I can abuse while blocking out sound. & the charging is a big deal. The more I can keep them constantly in my ears is better for me 💯

I'm buying these today based off your review! I love how you always get deep into the settings with your reviews! Always solid and informative. By far one of the absolute best reviewers out there.

Thanks for keeping it real, Floss. It must have been hard to pass up on that free money but I think you value the integrity of your channel more than a paid sponsorship. As someone that values your opinion on devices that I'm going to throw my hard earned money at, I appreciate and respect you for it. Hands down, you're the best reviewer on KZfaq!

I don’t buy ANYTHING until Flossy reviews it. FACTS!🙌🏾

Great respect for doing this for sponsorship free and giving a no bs review. It's why I trust you when it comes to my tech above anyone else.

Hey floss. Just want to mention this, i never have father in my life and your interactions with your daughter just melt my heart. World need more father like you. And thanks for the great reviews ofc

Just got mine today. Just right off the bat - the ANC is impressive!!! I think it may be even a little better than my Bose Quiet Comfort II's. This makes it worth the money alone for me. But the multi-point connection seals the deal. I'm happy with this purchase. Your review is spot on

The only reviewer of earbuds you can trust, right here. Love your videos. Thanks for this! You're simply the best!

Mad respect! You are the only one i really trust when it comes to reviews

I been using the sp800n's heavy for 3 years and just now started to fall apart so longevity is no problem for sonys. I'm looking to upgrade to these thanks to the amazing reviews by Floss. Keep it up brother💯💯

Also it is about time @Sony finally sent you a review unit. Thank you Sony! Thank you Flossy for keeping the review real and true to what you do

😂😂😂 when you started singing was the best part of the video! I’m dead! 😭 The joy and excitement in your voice makes the video 10x better. Glad you decided to do it YOUR way in the end! 💯

I love this dude's energy 😂❤ This is how I want every product reviewed

I never smile and laugh out loud more during KZfaq videos than I do with yours, love you floss

Floss your reactions to good music and good sound is just epic! Can hear how happy you are! Have a blessed one Floss!

Excellent video as always! One quick suggestion if you think it's worth it - try using samsung call recording feature (not sure if it's available in your region) to showcase environmental noise cancellation on calls. The fact that these are cancelling wind noise to zero is unbelievable and I would've loved to listen to a sample!

I chose these based on this review - Flossy! I couldn't be happier. I have had a couple other Sony buds but these are a big step forward. The size and weight to start are a game changer for Sony. Dialing in the EQ makes these things aing. Sony has always had great features and that remains true with these buds.

You kept it real, and got the bag, #1 KZfaqr, let’s get this man to 2M subs!!!

You’re the king. You would have still had my full respect if you had accepted the sponsorship, but you didn’t and now we get Petty Roosevelt and I’m here for it. As a faithful airpod pro user, I am fully aware of their shortcomings and am always interested in alternatives. Thank you for doing what you do.

Awesome respective/in-depth review aside, always love seein how great of a relationship Floss has with his daughter 🙌🏻

You always impress me with your reviews. This is why I keep coming back for a most comprehensive analysis complete with comparisons. My only question to you is: Percentage wise how much better are the B&Os SQ compared to the XM5s?

Bro how have I never seen your reviews before, it was phenomenal and you carry a vive. Thanks for the crystal clear review man definitely subscribing.

Been seeing a bunch of reviews on these earphones but the review i have been waiting the most with the highly prestige stamp of approval is flossy's vids

Flossy always has our back when it comes to finding quality tech!

Thank you so much for the real review Floss!! When the cash is just right, I’ll be upgrading my XM4’s for XM5’s. I get a discount at work so that will help make the new ones cheaper to get. It’s so good to see Sony stepping up their game so much that it gets a triple major go. You are simply the king, Floss. Even my bosses at work listen to Flossy Carter before they make a purchase. Peace.

This is why I rock with you floss, you respectfully declined their sponsor offer because you’re loyal to your craft, your morals, and your ideology of “Real review” No BS, as you always say :pledge allegiance to the Hotness, you’re the truth floss 🫡🫡🫡🫡🫡🫡🫡🫡🫡💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

Man i know i gave you my opinion of doing the sponsored video, but im pretty glad you still did your own video giving us your 100% truthful opinion. Respect Floss

You are literally THE KING of reviews. I wish you nothing but fortune and success.

In 2-3 years, this M5 will be king of budget buds for around $150-200 dollars. Great review, @flossy, and awesome job, @sony

Brother Flossy, this is the video I was waiting for. I love your honest reviews to be frank. The B&O and the Bose are my daily’s right now. I love the sound from the 4’s but my ears got tired from wearing them. I can’t wait for the 5’s.

I always love your honest and chill reviews. I had these in my cart, pre ordered status and I think I’m gonna hit that purchase button based on what you said and opinions. Plus I really loved the xm4.

pound for pound the best tech reviewer there is! you also have my respect for deciding to keeping it real, raw and unfiltered. your decision speaks volumes about your character👊🏼 and your allegiance to the hotness is indeed unrivaled🔥🔥🔥

amazing review, first person i've seen who mentioned my personal issues with my old m3s, out of 15 reviews on various ear buds I've watched over the last 2 weeks. you perfectly described why I stopped using my wfm3s and how this addressed those issues.

I like that they nailed everything in a much smaller compact size. I would love to get one but I am still rocking my Sony Linkbuds S (white). Its just so good, so light.

I'm in the market for my 1st pair of wireless earbudz and will get the silver M5's. Thanx Floss for not going with a sponsored video and keepin' it real

Ordered. I've been waiting for these and after seeing your review, I knew they were GOD TIER. Mad love Floss

Floss I really liked the way you did this review, it was a nice change of pace you talking about the product before the unboxing, and you also summed up some other points. These might be my new pair of headphones!

This is it! This is what I've been waiting for. I've been binge watching XM5 videos since yesterday but I was waiting for Floss' video first before I make my decision (like I always do). $300 is not cheap you know. I'm currently rocking the Airpods Pros and MTW2 at the moment and considering to add XM5s to my collection.

Thank you for the demo on these earbuds Flossy. I bought these today and I totally agree with you. The noise cancelling from these earbuds, is scary, when you find the right ear tips for it. And the bass from these headphones, they are JUST like my WH-1000XM4's that I've got. Bone rattling (for lack of a better word).

I made my comment last night, supporting you doing the sponsor video. I will always do that because I never know someone’s financial situation, nor is it my business. All that said, I respect the hell out of you for turning down the 💰 to tell your over 1,000,000 subs, hell, maybe 2,000,000 the truth. Your humor, your knowledge and of course, White Shoes, is why I love this channel.

Thank you for the great reviews. Just got my own Galactus in green and a case from your reviews and I love both. Now I need to save for some quality buds.

Big Floss Man, you never disappoint. Thank you so much for keeping it Real and giving us the Real Review. We never want you to hold back cause God knows there’s enough giant corporations out there telling us what to say and think as it is.

I literally just bought the overhead XM5 headphones earlier today after watching your review on that 🤣, wasn’t expecting to see the earbud version reviewed today already, didn’t even know they existed 😂

Respect bro! You got this video out quick, appreciate your honesty and consistency 💯

That's why I love your videos, always honest and real ❤️

Thank you for not doing sponsored content and keeping it REAL! I really appreciate you letting us have a say either way!

The only headphones/earphone reviewer I trust tbh excited for theseeee

To tap one side of the ear bud to go into transparency mode is absolutely dope plus Sony app customizable features is desirable and is a necessity. Speak to chat is madly dope 💯✊🏾.

You remind me so much of how I jump into my tech! When I speak with some people even about earbuds and head sets it may not be the most poppin, it is like why did you get that. Because it is the best of what I wanted in the market currently!! Flossy I have been watching your videos for years and this is Amazing how even I have came with tech, even assembling and dis assembling to learn parts and how it works and the benefits!! I had more to say but even a one on one with me would kind of suck!! You are the true Ice!!

I have the XM4s. Sounded great especially in terms of bass. One problem, I have normal size ears. The XM4s never stayed in my ears properly. Almost lost them several times. Glad to see the XM5s are smaller.

Hey floss. I’m watching the video right now, and just from hearing your personal experience at the beginning of the video, I’m already thinking about getting these along with a pair of pixel buds pro so that I have two sets of earbuds cause I know you say it’s always a good idea to have two sets of earbuds just in case, but I haven’t even gotten to the full testing yet and I’m already thinking about getting these just from listening to your personal experience at the beginning.

My wife just had a major event occur on Friday. I got to give you credit because I wasn't necessarily looking to buy these but it was a major major major buy after your review. I used your Amazon link and couldn't be more happy to do so

I purchased WF-1000XM4 after watching the review on this channel. I also had some Power Beats Pro but lost one earbud, so I'm looking for earbuds that are Android-focused, and *have wireless charging* (I also have the RGB wireless charger from Razer, I fell in love when I saw your review of the charger). These WF-1000XM5 fit PERFECTLY besides my headphones and I'm super happy that they have wireless charging.

Mad respect from one tech lover to another...keepin it tru to urself and the channel. Been a loyal subscriber for years, and i will continue to follow you bro 💯

I clicked fast ASF! EDIT: I loved Sony earbuds for years until the XM4s. B&O EQ's sound quality is insane. If they had Sony ANC they would be ultimate God tier.

I got halfway through this video and bought some. Can’t wait for them to arrive! Thanks Flossy from Sydney Australia!

Been holding off on these until I saw your review. Pre Ordered my pair as you were wrapping up the review!!

Looks awesome! Cant let go of my xm3 though. I just love how easily you can replace the battery inside them, replaced mine 3x already.

The XM5 review I’ve been waiting for. Did not disappoint!👍🏻 I use EXCITED on my XM4’s. I hope the XM5’s doesn’t have the Battery Drain issues like the XM4’s

I just ordered the B&O Beoplay EX. All thanks to you. They may not have perfect ANC or wind isolation. But good material and clear sounds is needed, because they check all other boxes

I just ordered these amazing earbuds last night, and I'm counting down the days until they get here! Flossy's reaction while listening to them had me hitting "buy" even faster. No other review even came close!

Thanks for the honest review, really appreciate it. Although I'm sad you didn't get the sponsored money. I wonder how these compare to the upcoming Galaxy Buds Pro 3 Also, the Samsung Scalable Codec vs LDAC

Honest question, Floss. Long time fan here. Love what you do. I’ve been watching a lot of headphone, ear bud reviews and the thing that stands out to me is that many other vloggers (DHRME comes to mind), play actual samples of sound, noise cancelling, pass through. You just play what you hear and describe it. It’s subjective. Will you ever take it to the next level and let your fans hear what you actually hear or is it always gonna be a “just listen to my reaction as I listen to the buds”? I’m always gonna be here for you and White Shoes. I just wanna keep it real and give honest feedback. Don’t be mad. I ain’t hating.

Great review Floss. I appreciate the honesty. I was going to be surprised if they toppled the B&Os. I am glad to hear that the ANC is improved. I have the M4s and was kind of disappointed with their ANC. Peace.

Love how you started with your experience, rly good switch up 👏

Floss keeping it real. Not "selling out" and accepting a sponsorship. Pretty hard to give an objective, opinionated "review" on something when the company is literally paying you to talk about them

Grabbed a set already, waiting for them in 2-3 days. Gotta get something to replace my wf1000xm4s with battery issues. Hopefully those aren't coming back. Edit: Really glad to hear you like them, I'm excited.

Driven by this review. Amazing earbuds. Just got some today and seriously happy with them. Thanks Flossy (and White Shoes).

Real activity for doing the Real Review. I saw the comments on the video where you asked the fans and we wouldn't have blamed you for takin the bag, but you kept it real anyway. Big ups. Great review. Sony going crazy.

Man I'm real tempted by these. Got the XM4s and while I enjoy them, they do feel pretty big. The XM5s address a lot of the problems I have with the XM4 and the case is actually real close in size to the Airpods Pros. Might wait for the price to drop a bit though, $300 feels a bit steep

Great video as always. Curious to see what Bose brings out in response. I picked up some QC2s earlier in the year after two pairs of Razer buds failed on me back to back. I wasn't necessarily looking for ANC but I came to love it. And the wings. I must have something with the shape of my left ear because buds shaped like the Sony's will always fall out of my left ear for some reason. With the wings on the Bose they actually stay in.

Yo Floss another great review! Love your honest reviews!

You know I wouldn't listen to anyone's reviews but yours cos yours are the real reviews!

Thanks Flossy for keeping it 💯!! Just ordered these.. You gonna get your hands on Sonys new HT-ax7 360 bluetooth speaker? Would love too see your take on it.

The XM4 also had the temporary transparency mode. It was definitely a nice feature.

Thank you for being true to yourself and your fans. We watch to see and hear you !! Not some sponsored sh**. Thanks man. Keep up the great work. I just love your videos. You're a real person. Thanks❣️❣️🇦🇺

Man you are great Declining a sponsor by Sony in order to give your audience a full review, speaking freely about the good and the bad stuff about the product, that says a lot about your content quality and commitment. Keep it up bro!

Looks and sound excellent. But I'm skeptical to get the first batch of this product. Based on my experience, when I purchase my XM4, the battery sucks after 6 months and fortunately warranty still applies and they replaced it. But this XM5 will in my wish list and when the software is stable.

My young brother whenever I'm feeling down and a little depressed I always listen to one of your videos and you always put a smile on my face thank you for that❤

Outstanding review Floss....so glad you compared them to the Beoplay EX.s for sound quality....to me thats where the rubber meets the road. Thanks for keeping it 100 brother.

Love your work Floss, no BS, straight to the point.

Respect the integrity Floss 👍

Flossy, your cat always tries and takes over your videos. That cat is a real attention seeking, photo bombing monster, and you're just so patient with it!

I've been watching you for years Flossy. Bro you are GREAT! I ordered these buds today :) greetings from greece brother

Thanks for all the great info! Ordered and receiving it on Friday!!!

I’m really hoping B&O gets their transparency and anc up to AirPod and XM5 levels with the next beoplay iteration. Was hoping these would manage to sound better but I’m still gonna test them out against the EX myself

I do like Sony, I have had a pair of over ear headphones from them for years, but since they are in storage now, i have different ones. Before that I loved my Sony's. Now It's LG Tone, I can't get enough of them lmao

Thanks Flossy, I am definitely upgrading I already have my pre-order in. Still not a fan of the B&O’s design but they are elite.

Had to get the Flossy seal of approval! Upgrade is a MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR GO!

I buy all my stuff based on flossy carter advice 🤙🏼

mad respect for you floss , i would like you to do a review about the sabbat e16 if you may please 😊😊😊

ANC and multi point connection is most important to me. I just pre-ordered, I'm excited to get them!

Comprehensive review = being straight up! Thanks for review floss. i"m currently sporting the old XM3 i got bundled with my now water damaged Xperia 1 III, tempted to upgrade to the XM5 + 1V bundle... or I wait a little longer for next years VI (or whatever's Sony high end phone 2024)
