Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have some audiophile headphones, but I end up reaching for these for the noise cancelling and the comfort. I had Bose headphones, but I find their noise canceling to be uncomfortable after a couple of hours of use. I have not had that problem with these. I do wish it had the ability to connect to multiple devices, but Sony doesn't seem to do that with any devices at the moment. A

These headphones are wonderful. I was pleasantly surprised to find that they block a good deal of noise without the having the noise-cancelling function active. It's wonderful that the noise-cancelling function can be tailored to the sounds of the environment you are in and are not just on or off. These headphones are lightweight, have a fit that's comfortable for long periods of time, and produce fantastic sound.

Amazing sound. Noise canceling phenomenal. Super comfortable. IMO all around best headphones.

After spending 2 months looking at different brands, features, etc., there simply is nothing to compare with the Sony WH-1000XM3. They're comfortable, easy to adjust and use and external sound is nearly all gone while in use. They support both wired and wireless and can be customized to suit your own hearing taste. If I was in the market for another headset, I would definitely buy these again!

These are the best headphones I have ever tried! I was simply blown away by how great the noise cancellation is! They are comfortable, have amazing sound, not to mention 360 degree sound! While on the airplane, these work to totally eliminate the sound of the plane, and makes it super quiet, to where I could finally take a nap while flying. If you don't have these, you need to get them ASAP!

What's not to love? Excellent sound. Excellent noise cancelling. And a great Android app for tweaking the settings including an equalizer. Did I mention that the battery lasts forever*. Plus a nice case for storing them. For the constant air traveler this device will reduce that annoying background roar to a whisper. *Of course the battery doesn't last forever but it sure lasts a long, long time!

Great fit, amazing materials and battery life. Noise canceling works perfectly.

ANC is very good, can still hear outside activities but is at a very low muffle. It has the ability to listen to the outside sounds and send through to you by covering the right ear with your hand (which can be useful for a brief interaction), but it still feels a little awkward. The sound quality is pretty good, not as good as some sennheiser headphones I have listened to, but they are a comfortable equal (doesn't over-do the bass). One thing I don't like is that you can only use one device at a time, no switching between the two seamlessly (I have to turn off the bluetooth or disconnect it on one device to have it connect to the other)

First I'll say that I don't think this is a bad product. But there is a combination of factors that won't let me recommend it to anyone that I know. The first is the touch pad on the ear cups, it couldn't work for me, I was always just missing something by a little, and I'm coming from my little Samsung Earbuds that have a similar touch system in place and that one works flawlessly, but after over a week with the Don't it couldn't work. And also I don't want you to think that I dislike Sony as a brand or I'm just a "hater" I have had the Sony XB-950, and actually I own the WH-CH700N(currently I own 4 pairs of headphones), and I love all of those. So that's why I bought this headphones because Sony makes great stuff. Granted the sound coming out of this headphones is not bad at all it's pretty decent, but barely better than my now 2 years old WH-CH700N, and this is the big problem here: the physical buttons on the WH-CH700N always work, for less than a third of the price, granted the noise cancellation in the WH-1000XM3 it's really good, blows anything out of the water, but again at that price, it better does. Let me wrap it up in a few cons and pros: Pros: -Decent sound. - Great ANC. -Nice carrying bag. Cons: - The touch functions are a nightmare to use. You will be annoyed by it(listening to anything, specially music: should be an enjoyment not about pressing the earcup over and over and over and over) - They get super greasy easily and will pick up any dirt in your hands. - The ear cushions are not so comfortable, I found myself annoyed by them after 30 minutes or so. - The price tag is too premium for a pretty decent pair of headphones that would be better in the high hundreds ( the same goes for the Bose quiet comfort II). As a background for me I have work as Sound engineer for house of prayers and 1000+ people venues and I currently own, three pairs of Sony headphones, some Shure headphones and Beyerdynamic as well. So I'm not trying to down talk a great brand like Sony but put a little perspective to on my expectations when a brand asks me 300+ for a pair of headphones.

Bought this for a trip to Europe. Used it to connect to the aircrafts in flight system and was able to watch movies and listen to music. The noise canceling is excellent and the headphones were comfortable enough to wear for the entire 10 hour flight. When it time to catch some rest the noise cancelation was sufficient enough to reduce the sound of the crying baby to allow me to get some rest. Highly recommend.

A lot of money but very worth it if you’re willing to make the investment. The noise cancelling is the reason why I bought them and it works better than most. You can turn the NC off and the optimizer in the headphones actually adjusts to your surroundings so you can hear less or more ambient sound around you. The battery is true to what it says and I typically don’t have to charge them for at least a week! :)

I did a lot of research for over the ear noise canceling headphones. I spend a few days going back and forth between this headset and Bose Q35. I'm sure the Best Buy staff was getting annoyed with me being there so often, lol. I chose this pair due to the great sound and ANC abilities. The comfort was slightly better on the Bose IMO, but these are not bad either, the Bose are lighter. Good luck on your headphone journey!

Super comfy, super easy to use, battery lasts for ever, and great noise cancelling.

I've had many headphone's from the crappy beats year's ago to my latest Bowers and Wilken's Px's. I also have the parrot zik's and the sennheiser pxc 550's and the Sony's I love the best. The touch control isn't always accurate with the touches but the sound and comfort is really good. Great job Sony.

Very comfortable with great sound quality and noise cancellation. The range is good; I was able to walk to different rooms from the Bluetooth source without any interference (multiple walls between and approximately 25ft away). I haven’t tried the microphone on these yet (most reviews agree it sucks), but I didn’t buy them for the microphone. They look good, fold up nice, and the touch controls are easy to get used to.

I've purchased both these, and the Bose 700. The sound quality on these are far superior to the Bose. The Bose have slightly better noise cancellation, but these are so close second that I wouldn't pay any more for the Bose. I wish they have bluetooth 5.0, because I have issues connecting when it's paired to more than one device. I also wish they had the microphone quality that Bose has, because sometimes my Google assistant doesn't understand me because the microphone quality is so bad. The case is super durable and small enough to fit in any bag, and they're comfortable after wearing them for hours at a time.

I watched a few video reviews on all the different headphones available in this top tier class of noise cancelling headphones, and these ones smoked everything else. They are incredibly durable, they last for a really long time on a single charge, and if they die, they can be quickly recharged since they use a type C, and they have awesome sound quality. Overall, very satisfied.

LOVE THE SOUND the lightness they fit good ..was easy to set up love them

Great Sound, Great ANC!!! Very comfortable. Easy to pair and easy to use.

I will not board an airplane without these! Amazing noise cancelling. It was easy to connect these headphones to my phone and TV. Google assistant reads texts to me if I'm listening to music so I don't miss a beat. I love the touch pads on the sides, which makes it easy to turn up or down my audio with the flick of a finger. Battery life is awesome. Would recommend!
