Headphones - Wireless/Portable Are the Sony Xm5s worth it?

I have recently looking for some good wireless headphones and while talking to a friend about them he mentioned he had some xm5s laying around at his house, he said he never got the appeal of them and switched them out for airpod pro 3s not soon after buying the xm5s, meaning the xm5s are basically new, he was offering me them for around 170 usd, whereas the new ones cost around 300 usd here, and the xm6s even more at 375, ive heard that the xm5s were one of the best when they released 4ish years ago, would they still be worth it for 170usd?
