Good headphones, controls are a little touchy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall I think they are worth the money. Pros: Does a good job of both canceling out ambient noise in NC mode, and enhancing ambient noise in that mode. Cons: Controls are tough to find because they are touch and don't have feedback so will require repetitive use to get comfortable. Would prefer a separate button for Alexa/Google instead of having to decide whether a button is for changing modes or Alexa/Google.

Posted .Hi Dontwantanickname, we are glad that you like the noise canceling feature of the WH1000XM3. To get the most out of your WH-1000XM3, download the Sony | Headphones Connect App. It includes Adaptive Sound Control—which automatically adjusts noise canceling based on your activity, and an equalizer—which can be customized to fine-tune your music. Using our advanced noise canceling technology, we designed these headphones so you can block out noise and experience next-level silence.
For the touch sensors to work properly: the single tap must be very short/quick. If the finger touches the sensor “too long” during the tap => it will not work. When tapping the touch sensor 2 or 3 times, tap it quickly with an interval of about 0.4 seconds between taps.

Great headphones, but...
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So much hype about these sony’s and since i owned the bose qx 35 ive decided to purchase these. Great sound, connectivity, superior noise cancelling, etc. reason for 4 stars? Super warm earpads!! Cannot wear for more than 30 mins ears get sweaty. Sony, whats the use of all those features if you cant even wear these for longer than 30 mins?. Other than this it really beats the bose in every category. Still cannot recommend. Wait for xm 4’s.

Much better headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased the headphones at Best Buy with the assumption that the headphones were of great quality. And this is a truly great headphone first because of the noise cancelling software that prevents others from hearing about it and the fact that there is a google assistant button.

Awesome sound quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good value for the money esp if you can find it on sale. Doesn’t look as trendy as some of the other headphones but sound quality is very good. Noise canceling is very good.

Such good sound
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have never owned active noise cancelling headphones before, but now I'm never going back. The sound quality is incredible. When I wear these on airplanes (pre-covid), everything goes silent. Sound quality is great once you play around with the EQ in the app.

Great sound and so comfortable to wear!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great upgrade from my Bose Quiet Comfort 15's. Awesome sound whether I am in a quiet room or running outdoor gas powered equipment. Combined with the super comfortable fit and feel this was a great upgrade. Highly recommend them because of sound quality, wear comfort and price.

Great headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best over ear headphones I’ve ever owned. They beat out Bose in noise cancellation especially on flights. I like the included features, I just wish they worked specific to Spotify, YouTube music, or Apple Music for the virtual surround sound.

WOW ALL I CAN SAY
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the best headphones for noise cancelling I have ever heard or for politically correct phrase did not hear! They do have the option of placing your hand over the right muff and you can hear 100% clear as a bell! Thank yo Sony for a wonderful product.

Great sound and noise cancellatio, but gets warm
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It has fantastic sound along side amazing noise cancellation, but does get sweaty at times. However, it doesn't get too sweaty and when it does, it's usually hot and it's after 2-5 hours of wearing them. A great buy for anyone wanting amazing noise noise cancellation with fantastic sound. Whenever I'm forced into using any regular 20-80 buck earbuds, I always beg and complain how their not even close to the overall quality of the Sony wh-1000xm3 headphones.

Very comfortable Headphones.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was my first pair of noise cancelling head phones I ever bought so I have nothing to compare them too. But on there own I love them. They are really comfortable and I sometimes forget I even have them on when I am listening to my music. They are expensive but not a purchase I regret at all.

Sounds great, feels great.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I can wear these things for hours and not notice them. Eliminates those droning type sounds like air conditioners and I guess airplane engines (haven't flown with them yet). Sounds great when used with Fire Stick and phones. Probably wait for them to hit at least that $50 off sale.

I’m a beginner!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve never owned a pair of over the ear noise cancelling headphones before but wanted them so I don’t have to worry about wires getting in my way and to focus on school work. I really love these! They are comfortable and the touch portion on the set comes in handy. I would give it 5 stars but I just find that the top of my head sorta gets sore when wearing them for a while but it could just be my head is misshapen lol

Best ANC headphone in the market
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had the QC15 and i upgraded to these over the QC34 II. Definitely better sound quality and ANC than the Bose. Only complain would be that the earcups do get quite hot unlike Bose and are slightly heavier and noticeable when you wear them entire day. Otherwise, they are the perfect ANC cans,

Hearing protection
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use these headphones for everything. Cutting grass, working on cars and sometimes just sitting back and listening to music. The quality is nothing short of outstanding. Great investment for your hearing protection.

Better sound quality than Bose QC 35 II
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality surpasses the flagship quiet comfort model Bose by miles, and it's just as great in noise cancelling. I could sleep soundly on my 12+ hour international flight with noise cancelling on, and the gesture mechanics on the cans allow switching to ambient mode to hear or speak to someone.

Best Headphones Ever
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I did ALOT of research and while the price was a little high all I can say is they are VERY much worth it! If you’re looking for a pair of high end noise cancelling headphones look no further. These things are rated #1 for a reason

Amazing
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound is a great balance of highs, mids and base. I bought these ones, the Bose 700 and newest Beats headphones. These are the best sounding to me. They collapse and easy to store in case. It surprised me due to I am a Bose man. These are highly recommended.

Great Noise Cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Noise Cancelling on these headphones are great. They sound really nice and keep most to all noise out, as long as you put those settings on. People have reviewed this poorly but I don’t think that they downloaded the app that corresponds with the headphones.
