Customer Ratings & Reviews

It was between the sony and the Bose and while the Bose has a better NC and phone clarity the Sony headphones sounded better for music and I felt were more comfortable. No regrets. great pair of headphones. phone app interface works great.

I bought the Sony 1000XM3’s for my sister as a gift. I had previously let her try on my Bose QC2’s and she marveled at the idea of having a pair of noise cancelling headphones for herself. She is a teacher, so she spends very long hours in a cafe creating lesson plans and curriculum. I decided to buy her the Sony 1000XM3’s because I love my Bose QC2’s, but I had already read time and time again about Sony’s superior noise cancelling technology. She was absolutely blown away by the sound quality and noise cancelling capabilities, and so was I when I tried them on. The controls are also much more functional than the traditional single or double button press on the side of my Bose QC2’s. These headphones were an absolute home run. I rarely catch my sister without her headphones on while studying, grading, or reading.

As of this writing, these are still the winner amongst all ANC headphones (in my opinion, of course). It’s also really comfy. One thing I don’t really like is that you can’t change the name of these headphones (yes, I know I’m weird).

I have tried the Bose QC35 ii. This beats the Bose hands down in sound quality and noice cancellation. I prefer the touch controls in Sony than the buttons in Bose. My only gripe is Sony doesn't have the ability to connect multiple devices at same time.

Probably the best wireless headphone in the market today. The battery life was excellent. Noise cancelling was excellent. There are a lot of reviews you can find for this headphone in YouTube and this is highly recommended.

For Christmas I received Sony XM3 noise canceling headphones. I am really enjoying them- they are great at blocking out background noise, including airplane drone; easily attach to several devices including my TV; are easy to use and very comfortable.

Comfortable for use over several hours, excellent noise cancelling and sound quality although the touch audio controls sometimes take an extra try to get them to work. Plenty of configuration options in the app to dial in the sound.

Sony headphones are light weight on my ears no pressure after hours of use. noise canceling is great, sound is awesome. I am so glad I purchased these after research of other wireless headphones I made the right choice! definitely would recommend

Bought these for noisy work environment. I balked at the price tag but could not be happier..super comfortable, great sound and unbelievable sound cancellation. I turn these on and dont even need music on to drown any noise out

I've recently upgraded from my three year old Samsung Level On Pro and I'm completely impressed. Amazing sound, noise cancelling, comfort and nice user adjustments via the app. Even if it's a little pricey it is well worth the investment.

This product from Sony is by far the best noise-cancelling headset on the market. The ANC beats Bose hands-down, in sound quality, noise-cancelling and style. Very comfortable to wear and stylish too. The only reason I don't give five-stars...the touch controls (no buttons on this one) aren't as refined as they are on the Bose 700s, but the Bose refinement is not worth the extra $50.

I've had these Headphones for over a Year. I bought the Bose QuietComfort35 Series, originally. The Audio quality of the Bose is sub-standard compared to these. The Sony App allows for a user to mix the music and change the dynamics to each users desire. The Sound Quality is amazing and totally cancels out Open Office Noise. If there's a downfall to these is if you get a Phone Call and you use these in a very busy area. The other caller will hear some background noise that is being cancelled for you. Overall, I bought these headphones for my Wife as well and she absolutely loves them too. When the next generation Sony Headphones get released, I hope they are step up from these so we can upgrade but there's not much room to go up from here!

I was ready to pull the trigger on the previous model WH-1000XM2 because almost everything about it besides the weight was better than the Bose QuietComfort 35 II. The noise - cancelling is much better in the M3 and the sound quality is amazing. Don't get me wrong, Bose sounds good but it's mostly midrange sound. These sound better over a wider range. I especially like how much control you have in the app you download to your phone. You're able to adjust the equalizer to tweak that sound to how you want it. It also has Adaptive Sound Control so it can sense when you are in motion or sitting still, if you're in motion it will lower the Noise Cancelling so you can be more aware of your surroundings. Bottom line, it's hard to get your money's worth when paying for headphones, but you definitely are getting the quality to match that price.

The noise canceling works great, the touch controls are easy to learn, and the music sounds really good. They do get a little warm as others have noted but nothing crazy. At the moment I think they are the best on the market.

These have been great so far. I would suggest to explore the "Headphones Connect" app to get familiar with all of the cool features the headphones can do by changing the settings. I'm really enjoying music, podcasts, taking work calls, and also wearing them for the noise cancelling feature. The sound quality is awesome, and you cannot beat the battery life!

Great sound, workmanship, and design. Build quality to me was better for these Sony headphones for similar at the same price point (i.e. Bose). Nice features. For sound, I prefer clarity over bass (not a fan of Beats) and sound comes through nicely.

Best wireless headphones I've ever used. I've had Bose, Beats, skull candy, and a few other. These are by far them most comfortable, best sounding and my opinion best looking headphones on the market.

They're comfortable and the sound is impressive. I would prefer to listen to listen to music on quality speakers, but these Sony headphones are the next best thing. Have-not had a chance to try them on a flight, but I bet they'll do fine.

These headphones are a very good value for the money. I like clear clean sounding headphones and these provide the great sound I’m looking for. Won’t give you the heavy bass of the Beats line but gives good clean quality sound with good bass.

great noise cancelling and fits over the ears perfectly. my only issue is sometimes it has trouble connecting to certain devices. sometimes i have to keep pairing them but other than that, they are great!
