Sound quality is fantastic and cancels out all sound from outside like traffic or kids playing when I go to sleep during the day! The comfort is ideal for long hours; And just 5minute charge provides hours of listening! I love it and well worth the money!

I wish there was a way to turn off the touch pad on the right ear cup; Accidentally changed music tracks/video just by brushing my arm or hand against it; That's the only negative and it's not even a big thing

I usually don't write reviews of any kind. And the only reason I'm submitting one now is because Crutchfield prompted me to do so. That said, I really like these headphones!! I've only been using them for about two weeks. The experience thus far has been excellent. Hence, the five star rating.

Sound Quality; It's incredibly contours to whatever you're listening; There's the right amount of bass, midsized, and highs

I'm not a fan of the type of black coating Sony chose; Matte black looks and feels better; By the way, hold onto these headphones securely at all times; They will most certainly slip out of your hands and fall to the ground thanks in part to the wonderful paint job I just commented on

I had my last Bose earphones stolen so needed a replacement, it was a toss up between the Bose 700 and these, all the reviews said the Sony were better, they are! The touch controls are much better, you can adjust the sound and tone and they are cheaper, very happy with my choice

I have had a few sets of noise cancelling headphone previously, mainly for overseas travel. The most recent a mid range Sony set. We have a couple of very long flights coming up so I started reading reviews, expecting the Bose QC 35 II to be top dog, but review after review kept finding the Sony...

Battery life - Nowhere near 30 hours. Noise cancellation - I couldn't notice any. Ergonomics - Buttons WAY too small / hard to find. Documentation - None. Setup instructions - None. I'm trying to use these withh a PC. When I found documentation / instructions on-line, it's all for smartphone!

I have owned the Bose for many years and have been happy with them. But these Sony's are on another level for sound isolation and quality audio. I can't think of anything that can be improved upon here.

Build and design When you unpack the XM3 for the first time, you will first be surprised by its low weight. In your hands as well on your head, these headphones have a tendency to disappear, which is quite a respectable feat, regarding all the technology Sony has stuffed In there.

good enough sound for most people

sound quality not up to the price tag

Amazing noise cancelling. Amazing battery life. I really tried to like the sound. But after having high powered audiophile headsets. These just fell flat. For your average user who is always on the go. This is an a amazing headset and should be bought when on sale.

Sony WH-1000X M3 review: With reliable battery backup, these noise cancelling headphones are worth the price tag....

Sony has released the third generation of its WH-1000x series noise cancelling headphones a minor upgrade from its predecessor that goes a long way

Excellent noise cancellation performance; Great battery life; Headphone connect app offers plenty of useful customisation options

Exposed charging and 3.5mm port susceptible to liquid damage; Sound signature is slightly bass-biased
