Pleasantly Surprised
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have fallen in love with these headphones. What really got me first was the noise canceling quality. Once you set everything up and the AI scans your surroundings for ambient noise, with no audio playing it sounds like you are in a different world. It is just amazing how well this works. The sound quality is good as well. I know that sound quality is subjective to each user, but these are defiantly Hi-Res. As it is with any Bluetooth system, you will get the best sound quality if the headphones are plugged in directly to the source, but the Bluetooth audio is more than adequate for what I use them for.

Highly Recommended Noise Canceling Headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So I've been using the headphones for a few months now. I really wanted to give them a five star rating because I like them so much, but there is room for improvement. Pros: -Really good noise cancelling -Stellar charge time. I've only had to charge them maybe four times. They charge very fast as well. -Comes with a nice case -Sounds excellent Cons: -Noise cancelling doesn't block everything out -Ear pads can become a little uncomfortable over long periods of use -Switching bluetooth form one device to another can be somewhat of a hassle These are my first pair of NC headphones. I compared them in store to the Bose Q35. I found, for me, these headphones to be more comfortable, better noise cancelling and better sound. The touch button layout has a slight learning curve but nothing too drastic. I've paired them up to a Bluetooth transmitter connected to my entertainment center and enjoy using them with movies, shows, sports, PS4 gaming, etc. I also use them for trying to sleep in a noisy household.

Buy them.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these. They are my go to when traveling. ESP on a plane. I really like the features like being able lower the music or whatever your listening to by s hand gesture instead of having to take the headphones completely off. Also love that it comes with a cord. You make think you’ll never use it but it’s clutch when wanting to watch a movie on a plane without using your personal device where Bluetooth allows you to listen. Super sleek case too. Good purchase.

Comfortable and good noise canceling
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise-canceling technology works very well. You can continue listening to the news even if a train is blowing its horn within yards. The button-less controls don't always work, especially the on-off function. Comfortable enough to wear for several hours a day.

Amazing, but...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'll begin with the awesome: I love the features and the controls for the ambient sound; that is pretty useful at times. I was also pleasantly surprised by the ability to make phone calls and how clear they were, although I had to increase the volume pretty substantially. And of course, the sound is amazing! Music is crystal clear and listening on these things is an experience I am glad to have. I only have one complaint, though, and that is pretty huge for me and the way I consume media. You can only connect to one device at a time! I typically work on a laptop and will have my iPad next to it, using it to pull up additional info or play a video. I also take a few classes that require listening to video, so if I am on one device and have to switch, I have to go through the turn off and turn back on process, which gets a bit tedious. I had Bose Soundsports that will go back and forth between devices seamlessly. Despite the one flaw, the sound quality makes up for it, as long as you only use one devide.

Not much of an upgrade from M2's
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this in hopes that it was going to win me over from the B&W PX's. I like that the M3's are lighter than M2's. The sound is not that much different from before. But I ended up returning this because I don't like that you cannot pair more than 1 device. I miss the physical buttons to be able to pause/play/previous and forward. I don't know about others, but I feel that cupping the right side to lower the music so you can hear someone talking to you is gimmicky. I find that I end up taking the headphones off most of time because I think it is kind of rude talking to someone while having your headphones on. I don't like that the music doesn't pause or resume when you take off/on the headphones. And the lastly, I prefer the sound signature on the PX's over these due to the kind of music I listen to. If I just listened to hip hop or EDM all the time, then these would be great, but I find the sound signature on the PX's is far superior and it does a great job separating the vocals from the instruments.

It’s so quiet!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I test drove these in the store and they were head and shoulders above everything else. Now that I have them daily I’m still amazed when I put them on and it gets quieter, but then when I turn them on, and the actual noise canceling kicks in and it goes dead silent. It catches me off guard every time because it is SO quiet. I listen to music with them and with the app it is extremely adjustable with the equalizer to tweak it to exactly how you like. While I’m in the car on a long trip it elimates the road noise and plays music beautifully but still allows Waze and incoming phone calls to be handled. 5 stars!

Sony WH 1000XM3 Wireless Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sony Wireless headphones are a gift from my wife. I absolutely love them. They are great for when I travel, and even when I am at home. The sound is incredible, the only drawback, is that the noise cancelling is not very good, or I have not mastered how to cancel noise. The sales associate during his spiel informed me they were noise cancelling, but failed to demonstrate their use. I must point out I purchased two other headphones during the process and was not satisfied with the other products. This one I like.

Best Noise Cancelation!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones provide the best noise cancelation on the market today. These have great audio clarity and okay audio separation. They are very flimsy and not made of high quality material. These are what you get if you are spending a lot of time on airplanes and don’t care as much about having the very best audio. If you are an audiophile you will want to purchase the Sennheiser Momentum 3 headphones instead. The Momentum 3’s have the best audio clarity and separation, but there noise cancelation isn’t as good as the Sony’s, although they are close.

Excellent Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was a little apprehensive at first to purchase these headphones. I usually stay within a certain budget but decided to splurge being home more during the pandemic. These Sony Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones are excellent. You will need to download an app for them to connect. These worked perfectly with my iPad mini and I paired them with my work laptop. The noise cancelling is perfect. I can not hear any outside noise. Headphones have good bass and sound quality. There’s an option within the app to choose the sound you like. Definitely recommend these.
