Sony 1000Xm3 Headphones Review

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.

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!

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

I’ve read countless reviews between this and the Bose QC35 II and made visits to stores to test both devices. I’ve thought long and hard but in the end I decided to go with the Sony WH-1000XM3 because the sound quality is just so much better than the competition. It having a UBS C port also helped swing my decision to choose Sony over Bose. The fact that I’ve always trusted Sony also helped in my decision. I love how this product just makes the world melt away. With the Sony WH-1000XM3, it’s really just me and my music. And that’s worth any price.

I read a lot of reviews before purchasing Sony WH-1000XM3. I agree that it's the best WNC headset ever...

I bought this phone bundled with the Sony 1000xm3 Bluetooth earbuds and call of duty mobile points. I love almost every aspect of this phone but most of all the form factor. Every person I've shown it to loves the fit of it in their hand. Look online for Sony's officially marketed case. It has a nice premium feel to it and makes the phone more grippyer and protects the lenses really well. I love the ear buds but you need to mess with the settings a bit to get them to work without getting bombarded by sound adaption notifications. If you have Verizon like I do you may have trouble recieving txts but I fixed the issue relatively easily by talking with them about activating CDMA-less for your device. I hope to continue using this phone for a very long time. It's a win for me

This is my first headphone and I am really glad that I chose Sony 1000xm3. The noise-cancelling feature works so great that sometimes you are so amazed how quiet it is as you take it off in a busy environment etc. The connection works great. I love the touchpad. It is so easy to pause/play and adjust the volume. The pad on the crown is also very comfortable!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Sony Wireless Noise-Canceling Headphones are fantastic. The ease in which they sync up to your phone and the listening pleasure I received. I couldn’t believe how all background noise is nonexistent. I tried it around my grandchildren and it worked like a charm. I heard nothing but the music coming from my headphones. And that was it. I’ve been looking for headphones like this for so long.
