Hi Sony,

Thank you for the feedback on your experience with your WF-1000XM3 Wireless Noise-Canceling Headphones. We're sorry to hear your having issues with your wireless headphones. Please allow us to help you and turn this into a better experience.

For low sound quality, please try to follow the troubleshooting steps and guidelines on the links below:

https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wf1000xm3/v1/en/contents/TP0002289914.html
https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wf1000xm3/v1/en/contents/TP0002289889.html

- To get the sound that you prefer, please try the different sound modes found in the Sony Headphones Connect app. There is even an EQ in there—which can be customized to fine-tune your music to your liking.
- Try playing another source on the device. For example, try another music app to see if the issue is with a particular app.

The communication between the devices will be poor if there is an obstruction between the unit and the connected device. If you are getting unstable Bluetooth signal, you may try setting the Bluetooth connection mode (sound quality mode) to Priority on stable connection and see if it resolves the problem. Also, check that the headphones are running on the latest firmware version. The software includes key features, applications, bug fixes, and feature improvements.
