Sony 1000Xm3 Anc Headphones

It's rare seeing a pair of headphones that genuinely shine in almost every regard. But with the WH-1000XM3, Sony has created an indisputable winner, a categorically top-notch set of cans whose only shortcoming is the absence of 2.4GHz Wi-Fi connectivity, something we hardly ever see outside of the gaming market. They do have Bluetooth, though, so as long as you have a smart TV, an Nvidia Shield, a gaming laptop, or a Bluetooth-capable motherboard, you should be set for the reclusive world of active noise canceling. Unlike other noise-canceling headphones, the WH-1000XM3 use an unusually silent QN1 HD noise-canceling processor. In our testing, we found it was able to keep out most sounds, even on the crowded New York City subway. The battery does take a hit for this, but you can take solace in the fact that the WH-1000XM3 last 30 hours fully charged. After 10 minutes of being plugged in via USB-C, Sony claims they can deliver pristine high fidelity sound over five hours. And, to top it all off, volume and playback commands are touch-based. Goodbye forever, inline controls. Image 1 of 6

I just purchased the Sony WH-1000XM3 headphones and found them to be excellent in many ways. Very comfortable, Pairs easily with my TV, iPhone, DAP and laptop. The sound quality is very good.

Bought this to go with my Sony WH-1000XM3 headphones, since they only come with a very short cable. Works great; feels sturdy and quality.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While I've owned my fair share of Bluetooth headphones, none of them have had ANC and, honestly, I wasn't sure if I really needed a noise cancelling feature at all in my headphones. I most often listen to music while at home where it's relatively quiet, anyway. But I was excited anyway to finally try out the noise cancelling capabilities of these Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones, and I couldn't be more impressed. Even when I'm just in my bedroom listening to music, these headphones dull the sound of my noisy air purifier and bring the music into crystal-clear focus. These are great sounding headphones, but it's the ANC and attention to design and detail that really make for an impressive listening experience. With other Bluetooth headphones I've owned, even the ones that had good sound quality, I've always felt like I need to turn up my music really loud in order to properly "feel" it, which was probably terrible for my hearing health. But even at lower volumes, these Sony headphones sound clear and vibrant. The 360 Reality audio capability is really awesome as well. I set it up with my Tidal HiFi subscription and played one of my favorite albums I've heard a hundred times, yet I swear I was hearing details and depth in the music that I had never heard before. And what's even better is that these headphones have all these great features while keeping them super easy to use and super comfortable to wear. I usually wear glasses, and typically glasses plus headphones equals massive headache after more than a few minutes of use, but these Sony headphones put no pressure on my glasses. The headband doesn't dig into the top of my head either, like other headphones often do on me. This level of comfort, in combination with long battery life, means that I can use these for many hours with zero worries, just pure focus on the music. What more could you want?

These are now the gold standard for over the ear ANC headphones. Forget Sony & Bose, IF you own apple products.

I purchased these Headphones yesterday. After listening to several top of the line headphones the WH-1000XM3 came in at number one for me. They are the best sounding headphones that I have ever listened to and owned! The features are top of the line!

Nice headphones. Comfortable around the ear. The ANC works really well.

amazing headphones after a full year. the only thing i miss tbh is ANC

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Skullcandy Hesh ANC Noise-Canceling Headphones with Mic are a game-changer for anyone in need of high-quality headphones. The noise-canceling feature is incredibly effective, blocking out most of the background noise and allowing you to fully immerse yourself in your music or podcast. The sound quality of the headphones is excellent. The bass is deep and rich, the mids are clear, and the highs are crisp. The built-in microphone is also of good quality, making it easy to take calls or use voice commands. The design of the headphones is sleek and modern. They are comfortable to wear for extended periods of time, thanks to the soft cushioning on the ear cups and headband. The headphones are also adjustable, ensuring a perfect fit for any head size. The packaging of the product was well done. The headphones were securely packed in a box with protective foam to prevent any damage during shipping. Overall, I highly recommend the Skullcandy Hesh ANC Noise-Canceling Headphones with Mic. They offer excellent sound quality, effective noise-canceling, and a comfortable fit. They are perfect for anyone in need of a high-quality pair of headphones.

I tested 4 other noise cancelling headphones and returned them all finally settling on the WH-1000XM3 for a the following reasons: 1. Very Long Battery Life 2. Setup app allowed me to fine tune the sound to my taste 3. Noise cancelling is top rate 4. Sound is good but not as good as my audiophile wired headphones, and I wouldn't expect them to be. 5. I wear them at work and when I travel. 6. Good semi-hard case for travel Great Price! Other's I tested were. Bang & Olufsen H9i Sennheiser Momentum 3 Bose 700 Focal Listen
