Even if you might dispute whether the active noise cancelling is better than Bose, one thing is for sure: the number of features in WH-1000XM3 makes it without a doubt the best headphones for travel.
Sony promise more sound and less noise in these awesome WH-1000XM3 headphones!
Sony have always been front runners in developing noise cancelling technology, but it seems they've outdone themselves in their WH-1000XM3 headphones. The noise cancellation technology in these headphones is described as "our most advanced ever", with close fitting ear pads and HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN1 combining to ensure that Sony stays ahead of the pack.
Headphones can be smart, and in the case of the WH-1000XM3 model, they're super smart. Their advanced noise cancelling technology such as Adaptive Sound Control is a prime example, while other smart features include Quick Attention, which quickly turns down music, call sound, and ringtone to allow ambient sound to be heard easily, plus Voice Assistant compatibility and touch control.
Noise cancellation is one thing...what about the sounds? LDAC, Sony's new wireless audio technology transmits about three times more data than conventional BLUETOOTH wireless audio. This means you can now enjoy audio content that approaches a dedicated wired connection.
The dedicated NC processor in the WH-1000XM3 headphones ensures reproduction of your music is not compromised at any stage, even by processor performance.
Many of us use headphones while we're flying. Sony understands this so they've introduced Unique Atmospheric Pressure Optimizing to their WH-1000XM3 headphones. This delivers optimal sound at high altitude.
Manufacturer: Sony
Even if you might dispute whether the active noise cancelling is better than Bose, one thing is for sure: the number of features in WH-1000XM3 makes it without a doubt the best headphones for travel.
For most users, headphones should be able to shut out the rackety world and focus on the songs that move them or prose that inspires them. If you're dead serious about not missing a single word or note, having noise cancellation is a must.
Durable build; Comfortable to wear; USB-C; Great battery life; Versatile and rich recording-quality sound; 20-step noise cancellation
Not great for calling; Can't disconnect other devices using the app
Sony is onto another winner once again – I suspect I will be seeing these headphones more and more in aircraft cabins. Highly recommended.
+ Comfortable fit and great weight distribution; better finishing and copper highlights make it an even more premium product; improved sound quality and noise cancelling from the 1000X and 1000XM2, almost nothing to fault in its class; improvement in soundstage width and depth; bass now has good...
– The touch controls are still somewhat fiddly for volume and track control; they takes some getting used to
I spent most of last year investigating the world of in-ear sports earphones. I haven't had many to look at this year, so I thought it time to look at the other side of the headphone range with some noise-cancelling over the ear cans from Sony – and why start at the bottom of the range when their...
Looking for a premium quality pair of headphones? Sony’s WH-1000XM3 are hard to look pass. Right now, within its price point and feature set nothing is touching it. Bose is outdated right now with the QC35/II and while the PX by B/W are great they lack some features.
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. It’s a timeless adage, and one that’s easier than ever to cite if you’re a tech company. Love it or hate it, we’re currently in an era where the thrills of innovation have fallen to the wayside in favor of the comforts of iteration.
They don’t reinvent the genre, but the Sony WH-1000X M3s are a classic in the making.
New copper accents look great; Redesigned carry case & USB Type-C Charging;
No major improvement in battery life;
When buying a pair of headphones, there a couple of top brands to choose from. One of which is Sony. They've recently released an updated version of the top-of-the-line noise-cancelling wireless headphones, the WH-1000XM3.
Comfortable to wear for long periods of time; Multiple noise cancellation & ambient sound options; Has USB-C with quick charge; Great battery life (30 hours+; The touchpad is easy to use; Quick Attention mode works well
On the expensive side; Slight issues with build quality
Bose QC2 have been officillay de-throned. Sony beats the Bose hands down in noice canceling, sound quality and features. They are also more Comfortable. I've compared both personally. Bose is still a good headphone. If you are looking for the best. Then Sony has done it with these.
Released in August, Sony's WH-1000XM3 headphones are the latest in Sony's line of flagship headphones, following on from the WH-1000XM2 model that debuted at IFA 2017 and the original MDR-1000X that launched in 2016. The line was designed to compete with Bose's QuietComfort line, especially in…
There are few products that manage to take a giant step forward with every successive iteration. Sony's 1000XM line of headphones is one such product that not only excels on their own but has taken the competition head-on. The XM2 doubled battery but generally played it safe.
