Sony WH-1000XM3 Wireless Noise-Cancelling Bluetooth Over-Ear Headphones with Mic for phone call - Black

I was searching for a looooong time for great headphones. I needed:1. Noise Cancellation - the best headphones by far. Not one can compare.2. Comfortable Fit - i use them daily at my work, and sometimes i forget they are on me. Super comfortable. I did notice sometimes after long hours you can feel a bit of heat, but it is a minor thing, just wanted to point that out.3. Nice sound - i needed a really nice sound as i mix songs and being able to hear clear sounds was an imperative for me and boy did they deliver. For the price you pay it is amazing.4. Look good - the look is nice. Black is just perfect for me.5. Not insanely expensive. For AED 900 or $ 245 these are worth every penny, plus i have Alexa built in.6. Durability - well i will leave this as pending until ready for an update.I definitely recommend these to anyone if it satisfies all or some of the points above. For me they are so far 6/6. Great Job Sony. Looking forward to more products. Don't think twice and just go for it.

I am writing this review for other customers who may be wondering whether to buy these, or the Bose QC35.I have owned the QC35 (Mac I) and I definitely prefer Sony. The price difference plays into my preference.Overall, I would go for Sony if you have a more eclectic music style, and you need to switch between midtones or bass. Bose is great if you're just into midtones. I also like the replaceable earpads of Bose QC35.More on why I went for Sony this time round:1) Sony WH are more versatile. I liked QC35 handles mid-tones really and they fail when it comes to Bass. Sony can handle both. Switch off the default EQ settings through the app the moment you get them, and you're good to go.2) Sony WH are comfortable to the skin. When touching the materials, Sony WH might feel somewhat cheaper than the QC35. After using them for two weeks now, I can say that you should not trust your fingers -- put them on. I found that I can wear the Sony much longer than I could wear the QC353) Better bubble effect -- yes, the noise cancellation beats QC35I by far. That comes at a price though -- your ears are also int the bubble and they may... ehm... heat up a little bit.4) Price -- I bought the Sony WH at 870-ish aed. QC35II were at 1400aed at the time. I didn't feel they were worth the price difference.Happy hunting!

My favourite noise cancelling headset.However, for new users of noise cancelling headsets, these category of headsets are not so comfortable on the ears for long daily use. And the mic is not the best quality if you are planning to attend meetings when you have background noise or outdoors.For meetings, jabra evolve 65 is the best.Another note that might be a mistake from my side, when I try to disable the noise cancelling from the app, after a while it is enabled automatically.

These are the best-reviewed ANC cans available in early 2020, they even rival the Bose QC700s.I tried them out and bought them, since the sound is superior to the Bose, and the ANC (active noise cancellation) is also equal, or better.What I like is the sound, the slim case, and the good build.What I prefer the Bose for, is the comfort and the ease of pairingThe Sony's feel hotter and tighter might be a problem for long flightsThe ANC works a treat, and there are many configurable options in the appThe ear recognition thingy seems like a gimmick, I am not sure if it is or is not.The sound is waaay better, the bass is much better.The main issue I found was the difficulty to get the music to play and the difficulty in switching from one source to another, say like from your phone, to laptop, to tablet.The app makes things a little too complicated for my tastes.The price is better than the Bose, the sound is better than the bose and the ANC is also better than the Bose.If you are on the market for ANC headphones, buy these, you can't go wrong.

Great Headset.

I am not a fan of Sony. I am impressed with these headphones. They look cheap and plastic but the comfort, sound and easiness of pairing and operation is great.The sound is emphasizing the low bass, whiteout being excessive, still clear and detailed.They are comfortable to wear and they do not over heat. Like all closed over the ears they tend to heat up and a break is required from time to time.Bluetooth connection is impeccable without interruption and with decent operating distance. They connect with a phone/table through a specific application which allows pushing firmware updates and minor tweaks.Extremely satisfied good value.

Genuine article. Works great. May sound obvious given that the noise cancelation feature is really great, but Im not really sure if these are the best headphones you can buy for an office environment. The only problem for me with this headphones is really that is cancels actually too much of the sound surrounding me at the office. This can be an issue as sometimes its important to hear what your colleagues are speaking or when they call you to say something.

Superb product. The noise cancellation is amazing. Its very convenient as well - it has 3 modes which allows 3 levels of ambient noise to be heard. Touch operations makes it very easy to use. I wanted this product to enable me to work in a noisy environment, but at the same time giving the flexibility to quickly cater to peoples requests. The product provides exactly that. And of course, it's great with music too.

You get what you pay for. Best quality overall, connects even to a 10 meter range.Instead of wasting money on cheap ones, invest in good quality headphones.It'll pay off in the long run.

Very easy to set up. Comfortable and effective.

First off the bat, the look and feel of these is premium. The materials used feel very high quality, they're super comfortable to wear and they look very smooth. Nice clean lines, not overly bulky. 5/5 for this.The sound quality is great, nice and full sound, deep bass, being able to customise sound settings via the app is very useful as everyone prefers different tones. The connectivity with the app is very good. I haven't used them on a phone call yet, but I have heard other people say they do a great job, however apparently these are not as good as the Bose QC35ii for calls.They pair to my phone (OnePlus 6T) almost instantly - no complaints about this.The noise cancelling is really good, you do get a slight feeling of pressure in your ear when there is little to no sound, but as soon as some audio kicks in you don't notice it. It's also really good being able to switch between external mic on/off which means you can keep them on when in public places where you need to speak to people i.e in the shops, or when you are at home with friends and family.The battery life is brill. I probably charge them every week or two, if that. I use them most nights for watching Netflix, YouTube, watching sports and listening to Spotify.The case is okay, i'd prefer it to have a pouch for the cable to go in but instead it's kinda just stuffed into an empty gap. Not the biggest issue in the world if i'm honest! Having a USB-C input is a huge advantage as all my other devices use this. This was one of the reasons I chose this over the Bose QC35ii's.There are only 2 things I don't like. 1st is that the ear cups could be a tiny bit more generous. I have large ish ears, so they do tend to touch the wall of the cup which is very well padded so not in the slightest bit uncomfortable, just would prefer a bit more space for ventilation. 2nd is that the touch panel on the right earpiece every now and then does not react and you have to re-do whatever gesture. HOWEVER, having this touch panel is great in comparison to trying to feel around for buttons every time you want to change track, volume etc... so I still prefer this over buttons. It is MUCH more convenient without buttons.All in all, if I could mark these out of 10 they'd get a 9.5. As I said there are a couple of niggling things that I don't like, but nothing in life is perfect and I can promise anyone who buys these will be very happy with them. You really can't go wrong with a product of this quality and I definitely recommend them.

Me mandaron una versión en chino la cual no puedo conectar con alexa, ni me permite cambiar el idioma, que puedo hacer?? En la publicación dice compatible con alexa pero no lo identifica

I've never had an "expensive" pair of headphones before. These are amazing. Since the day I got them, I've been practically living in them. I have a lot of online meetings for work, so they get used all day for that. Then at night I use them for watching shows, podcasts, music, audiobooks, etc. They connect easily to both my laptop and phone. The noise cancelling feature works really well, so now even when I'm doing the dishes or vacuuming, I can listen to music. I like the fact that you can put your palm on the side of them to mute them when talking to someone in person. Or double-tap to pause. The swipe controls work really well. The mic is very clear and just as good as my old headset that had a mic extension in front of my face.These are so comfortable and light that I often forget I'm wearing them (like I will look for them and then realize I'm wearing them). With other headsets, I've had weird pressure points on or behind my ears, so wearing them for extended periods wasn't possible. I can literally wear these from morning to night without issue.The battery lasts a looong time. If I have a full charge in the morning, I can get a full day with them, plus the next day until the end of my work day. So almost 2 fulls days with heavy use. And they don't take long to charge, either. Like an hour or two, max? I like that they will tell you how much batter is left.The case is well made and easy to use. I take them to work every day, so that's important to me. I wish the included usb-c cable was a few cms longer, but it's not a deal-breaker.The only thing that I would really wish for would be the ability to mute the microphone during calls. Seems like a weird oversight on Sony's part.I've had them for about 8 months now. Recently I've noticed that about a minute after turning them on, they turn themselves off. Once I've turned them back on, they stay on for good. This doesn't happen every time (maybe one in 3 or 4 times?), but it's worrying. I hope this isn't indicating a problem that's going to get worse.
