Could not be happier
These headphones work perfectly and are durable considering I use them daily.
The sound quality and noise canceling is top notch and the Bluetooth connectivity is very reliable.
Only could be easier to connect to a few more devices, but thats hard to complain about.

Wonderful NC Headphones
These headphones take the cake in the NC headphone catagory. Wonderful piece of device. They are better than the Bose in both NC and sound quality. The Sony app is also much better than Bose connect app. You can actually control base mids lows and highs which is a huge bonus. Great!
Purchased at Amazon for $380.00.

Amazing product
These headphones have amazing build quality. I wear them while on public transport or while walking. The sound quality is top notch with nice heavy bass (which you can modify using the app).
These have the standard bluetooth 'issues' where it can only be connected to one device at a time however if you manually try to connect to the headphones, it's easy to swap them around.

Great NC headphones, as long as you don't take calls with 'em
my first premium headphone. I was a bit apprehensive to spend so much on a headphone but now I am glad I did. The noise cancellation is pretty awesome and there is nothing to complain about the sound quality. I like my songs with extra bass and the headphone delivers on it. The build is pretty solid and feels premium.
But a couple of pet peeves...
1. Ears get warm with prolonged use
2. The voice guidance completely mutes the audio which can be very annoying when you are on a call and the headphone changes profile.
Edit: I was so awestruck wit...Read more
h these that I never bothered to check how these performed for phone calls and I was more than disappointed to see that it sucks. It sucks so bad that I don't use them for calls anymore. If taking calls is with these are a priority I would advise you to steer clear of these.Purchased in May 2021 at Sony Physical store for $349.00.

Poor manufacturing quality, they will only last 3 months and customer service is non existent
I would not ever recommend these to anyone, they are cheaply made with cheap pieces of plastic joining the band to the cups. I have seen all over the internet of this manufacturing defect, and they basically offered me to buy a new set for $320, invest your money in Bose its a lot safer.

Suits everyone no matter what you wanna do. Love the touch functionality to change songs, update volume. And noise cancelling is just awesome. Cannot here anything from outside and just into my music.

Great noise cancelling wireless headphone!
Can't complain about this headphone. I use it at home when I'm relaxing and listening to my favorite songs. The noise cancelling feature is great. It completely blocks out other noise. The wireless range is pretty good and quick to charge. It's very comfy as well!

Great noise cancelling, only problem is...
Great pair of headphones with amazing sound, deep bass and world class noise cancelling. Top in class headphone. Few issues... Firstly it doesn't have capability to pair with 2 devices simultaneously which is a slight hassle when switching between devices. Secondly, I personally feel it gets quite warm after 45 mins of continuous use, depending on how sensitive you are to heat - may or may not be a deal breaker. Overall the best noise cancelling headphones in the market now hands down.

Great sound and very comfortable
Noise cancellation is great, even if you are not listening to music etc.
The only downsides is the headphones don't save your EQ settings from the app and you can only have 1 device paired to them over bluetooth, so it is a bit of a pain switching between PC and phone.

Great sound quality. But a bit too heavy for me.
Great sound. Great Bluetooth connection. No issue with the product. I'm just not very used to wear a relative heavy headset for a long time. I prefer the in-ear ones. Just personal choice.

Excellent Noise Cancellation
I purchased these after considering the Bose QCII and watching several YouTube reviews and determining these were the best in class. They are excellent! They sound great and isolate virtually all surrounding noise. I price matched Amazon's deal and purchased them at JB HIFI for $400 in February this year for a flight and to use during my uni semester. I have used them a lot more than expected! I mostly use them to listen to Audible, Spotify and YouTube, but movies and games sound great too. They have worked well on flights, in noisy rooms and e...Read more
ven while mowing the lawn. I highly recommend these headphones. The battery life is excellent and even with daily use, I only charge them every few weeks. My only frustration is the lack of dual Bluetooth connectivity. When I want to disconnect from my Mac and listen on my iPad, iPhone or PC, I must turn off the headphones, turn them back on and hold the connection button - a process that takes all of about 30 seconds but feels unnecessary when compared to more seamless initiatives from Apple's AirPods or even Bose's QC series. If this frustration is eliminated in the next model, I will consider upgrading, however I expect these headphones to otherwise last me quite some time.Purchased in February 2021 at JB Hi-Fi Retail Stores for $399.00.

Premium Sound and ANC
My first go with a Premium Headphone. Although I owned three headphones previously with three different brands, namely: Jabra, Beats, Sennheiser, these models weren't top of the line.
Hence, this critical review of my Sony WH1000XM3. After several years of waiting and searching for a new pair of headphone.
Sony’s WH1000XM3 offering made it so easy to be the king of ANC’s (Active Noise Cancelling) and it's sound.

Work, Play, Walk - Anywhere headphones
Bought a two sets of these, one for myself and one for my girlfriend, and we both love them. Sound quality is really good and the noise cancellation is probably the best on the market right now (as of time of writing the Bose 700 headphones are still unreleased, so we'll see how they stack up).
They are super light and very comfy. I use them for Xbox (gaming) which paired with a mod mic is the ultimate gaming set up, they last for 8 hours straight gaming and a convenient 15min charge give you an hour if need to be.

Best NC headphones I’ve owned
I’ve never regretted this expensive purchase.
I collect quite a few headphones in a number of varieties but these are the ones that I use every single day.
Pros:
They sound excellent to me. I’m no audiophile but I know what I like. They have plenty of base without sounding boomy or muddy. The sound feels very neutral/true without overemphasising any range of tones.
They connect flawlessly and I’ve never had a dropout.
Battery life is just amazing.
The quick hear function is very convenient (activated by placing palm against right ear piece...Read more

Best noise cancelling headphones on the market
Had the Bose QC-35 II before getting this and always had sizing troubles as it was too tight and hurt after extended use. Was not the same with the WH1000XM3 as it is much more comfortable to use. Noise cancelling is by far the best on the market. Only thing missing is aptX and LDAC support.

Great headphones with heaps of awesome features
Bought these about 3 months ago and am absolutely loving them. When I first tried out the XM3’s I actually didn’t enjoy the sound as it was too bass heavy, whereas I like a nice balanced sound. I ended up trying them out with some custom EQ curves and they sounded a lot better so I thought I’d buy them and see how they performed with the companion app.
Once I set the headphones up with the app, and spent a few hours tuning the sound to my personal taste (scooping out a lot of the bass) and now they sound phenomenal!
Every sound is so crisp a...Read more
nd detailed and the noise cancelling is unreal. I use these at work and on the train and I can’t hear anything around me once the noise cancelling is active and music is playing. The battery life is fantastic - I’ve only charged them maybe 4 times since I bought them and the rapid charge is super helpful. Hear through is a great feature, especially at work or at the station, as I can hear what someone is saying to me/what an announcement is without taking the headphones off. I’ve tested many headphones and own some very nice studio-grade cans, and these blow almost all of them out of the water. I cannot recommend them highly enough.Purchased in May 2021 at JB Hi-Fi for $395.00.

I love my Sony m3. I use this everyday.
I requested for a wireless headphones to my husband when he was overseas but I was so pleased with what he got the latest Sony M3. Loved it. Can’t fault so far. I use it at home a lot and when I go to my local gym.

Amazing! Wish I bought them sooner
I absolutely love my headphones. I suffer from Misophonia and these headphones have made my stress levels around that soooo much better. I couldn't believe at first how effective they are at blocking noises, especially the bass sounds that just drive me crazy if someone nearby is playing loud music.
I find them really helpful when I'm working and need to concentrate. I just pop these on, with the noise cancelling on but no sound playing through and I just don't get anywhere near as distracted.
The sound quality is good too, I use them every ...Read more
evening when watching my laptop with my son sleeping next to me! And I love the quick charge feature. I often forget to charge them seeing as I use them so often. The only downside is I wish I could sleep with them on! They cancel out my husbands snoring 99% of the time!!!Purchased in March 2021 at Addicted to Audio Online store for $397.00.
