If you're interested in a premium listening experience and want effective noise isolation, the Sony WH-1000XM5 offers excellent noise cancellation and overall sound quality for focused listening, particularly during air travel. However, they're not ideal for exercise, and may be less comfortable to wear for longer durations. On the other hand, if you're an active user looking for headphones to wear during workouts, the Mojawa HaptiFit Terra, with features like heart rate monitoring, sweatproof certification, and a bone conduction design that leaves ears open for situational awareness, would be a better fit, albeit with poorer overall sound quality. The Mojava is tailored for exercise enthusiasts and offers unique health tracking benefits, while the Sony is better suited for high-fidelity audio experiences but comes with a higher price tag.

"The Sony WH-1000XM5 are the best Sony Bluetooth headphones so far and one of the most well-rounded Bluetooth headphones around. Look no further if you need class-leading ANC with a mostly inoffensive sound signature. Just be ready to pony up the price premium."
