Hello, everyone. I’ve been thinking about getting the WF-1000XM5, but I’m not sure if it’s a good investment. I’ve heard that the WF-1000XM4 had a major battery drainage problem. Is this still the case with the WF-1000XM5?

Right now, I am using the WH-CH710N. They’ve been great, but recently they started to break. They still work, but the ANC doesn’t isolate the same way on the right ear as in the left ear, and they aren’t really compact. So I’m looking for an upgrade. I know that over-ear headphones are superior when talking ANC, but they aren’t as compact as in-ear. I’ve also heard that the AirPods Pro are a good option. But as an Android user, I usually tend to avoid Apple products.

Do you guys have any recommendations?

    One more endorsement for the link bud s. Seriously underappreciated in ear buds. They are ridiculously comfy and sound quite well on top. + you don’t look like some weird scifi character. They are very discreet inside the ear.

      I tried to get the nude colourway to make them even more discreet but had to get white. They are really a solid choice. Ticks all boxes.
