Better than Bose QC35ii

published

Sound is superior to bose, the features and control on the app is better and more flexible, the noise cancelling and ambient sound are fantastic, light to carry. Build quality has held up so far but not fully convinced at this stage hence the four stars

- Not impressed with quality when calling or receiving

Lovely headphones

One of the best headphones by far. Noise cancellation levels are the best in the industry. Better quality compared to wired headphones. Makes my plane ride so much better. Thanks Sony!!

Excellent noise cancellation

published

Excellent noise cancellation and sound quality. Can’t hear anything when listening to music on Sydney trains.
These headphones are comfortable to wear but will take some time getting used to.
Highly recommended.



Great noise cancelling and sound, poor bluetooth connection and controls

published

I have a pair of Bose QC35II as well, noise cancellation seems on par on both, you can feel the change of pressure with the QC35 which some people hate but not on the Sony which is great.
Happy with the sound, look at other reviews for more details.
Autonomy is good. Charges very quickly. Not a fan of the controls, I find clicky buttons way better and more intuitive. Works more reliably too, try it in shop before you buy those.
I found the bluetooth very unreliable in general, it cuts out regularly (with or without the quality vs connection setting in the app) which is awful. I also have to unpair and pair it again sometimes which I wouldn't mind, bluetooth is always a bit temperamental, but I never had to do this with my QC35.

Great sound quality

Bought one on last October, I've owned it almost half a year. It does have a Great sound quality. And can be controlled via APP or gesture. But it is a bit disappointing that will feel warm when wear it in summer days.

Best noise cancelling headphone with low quality material and non helpful customer care

published

The headband had exactly the same cracks on each side and eventually chipped just under normal use, see pictures, both side looks the same. SONY Customer care accused me for over streching it, so the warranty was void, I felt insulted. They offered me a 30% discount to buy the same product.

The noise cancelling quality was great, still going using it with some bandages on, if i can't get any replacement, will looks ugly.

Good, not great

published

I like the headphones but they aren't worth the full retail price. I use these for listening to music on my laptop and making Skype calls. Likes: comfortable for my wide head, design (simple and sleek). Improvement areas: touch control isn't reliable, unable to see when low power and whether noise-cancelling is on. The noise-cancelling and sound quality weren't as good as Sennheiser PXC550 I owned before this.

Excellent sound and noise cancellation

published

Best pair of headphones that I have used. Sound quality is excellent. Noise cancellation is probably the best among the headphones that I have used in the past. Great to have for the daily commute and very comfortable. Only downside is that it is a bit expensive and takes time to learn how to fold it.

Great set of headphones

published

I think these are a fantastic product.
Its eerie having them on and hearing almost nothing.
Then the music starts and the sound quality is outstanding.
I highly recommend a set of these.

Excellent

Have had these a few weeks now. Light to wear with very effective noise canceling. Easy to set up with a good range of adjustments through the app. I use them for travel and when reading or relaxing. I listen to mostly classical and jazz.

Class Leading Noise Cancelling Headphones

published

I bought these after buying a JBL pair of noise canceling headphones and the difference is night and day. These provide a great light comfortable fit and i have slept with them on the plane without issue. Noise cancelling is very good and sound quality is excellent, and the design is beautiful with gold highlights giving a classy look. Cannot recommend these enough for anyone in the market for noise cancelling headphones.

better than Bose

published

Just got back from JB Hifi where I tested noise cancelling feature Bose QC 35 II and Sony wh-1000xm3. Compared them side by side, with no music playing.
Bose is not even close to the almost complete Sony's sound isolation!
I had my $80 Taotronic 022 with me, and Bose was only about 15-20% better in terms of noise blocking....And Sony was like WOW THAT IS INSANE. Almost complete silence.
No competition here, at all.
I went away with Sony (matched price with Addicted to Audio) $398

WH-1000XM3

After owning them for 2 days, I tried mine for the first time on a plane. I am getting static as the plane takes off, very annoying. Landing is OK. Should I take them back or is this normal? Thanks everyone, Mary.
