Sorry for this rant but Fuck Sony. I bought XM5s 3 months back with my 🥜 salary as XM5s were supposedly the best premium headphones of the year and I wanted to buy myself something expensive for the heck of it. I did my research and found out that XM5s were within my planned budget. But they stopped working properly few days back - I charged them as I normally do and they went from 100 to 1% battery in few seconds each time I switch them on. I asked sony customer support - they don't know shit and just gave me the same troubleshooting instructions that I already followed from the sony site. Then next day - they are dead. I go to the sony service centre and those motherfkrs opened the headphones and squeezed the cushion and few drops came out of it. And THEY FUCKING SAID THERE'S WATER IN THERE SO YOU ARE OUT OF WARRANTY NOW!! WTFFFFFF???? I told them that I used them just for my meetings and no Gym or outdoor activity - I kept them safe like a baby and I am 200% sure the cushion absorbed moisture over the time and due to the poor fucking build of that crappy device the cushion kept absorbing the condensed moisture. But they didn't fucking budge and now my device is out of warranty - after just 3 months and I bought them thinking that they'll work for atleast 4-5 years. So, Fuck Sony - Fuck Sony Support. I hate them and their pathetic service. Never in my life I am going to buy another Sony product nor will I recommend anyone to do so. I used to work at TCS when I bought them so it was kind of a big purchase considering my salary and considering they are just fucking Headphones. I have seen people around me use other more cheaper options and they are working for years without any problem. #sony
Too late now but there’s a lot of threads on Reddit with people reporting the same issue
Yes, I saw those and told those idiots the same thing. His first response was what's reddit? Indian Uncles with zero fucking clue about anything with attitude higher than Burj Khalifa.
😂😂 last line
lol such a long rant to state the obvious. 😭
I grew up lower middle class and never bought Apple products. Too expensive. Headphones, laptops, phones, etc. Then I bought Apple, and finally understood “better specs at a fraction of the price”, at least outside of gaming, is a farce. Build quality and experience has a lot to do with it.
I know but I bought MacBook Air on sale - it's the best device I have ever used till now. I don't know about the iphones but MacBook is nice imho.
