So I have actually been excited about trying out the new Bose 700 headphones. I was curious to if these were going to be the new noise cancelling king headphones. The price of these are $400 so they are already pretty proud of these from the start. But can anything justify the price tag? Enjoy!

Well designed. The lack of mids for me are just not it . Good video bro
Thanks, it is just hard to recommend these considering there is better options at that price range. I would take the QC35 II over these. Still would take the Sony's over them both
The creators were just metal heads from the early 2000s
It's a weird design
The Sony 1000XM's are way worse in the mid frequencies :(
@@georgedomse bose has non to talk about
If every reviewer were this much honest brands woundnt have charged large amount of money for some mediocre headphone.
Thanks, I appreciate that
A lot of reviewers are sponsored vids, that’s why they lie.
They're not mediocre though. They are great headphones. He's not saying that they're mediocre, he's just saying that they're not a good enough upgrade.
Ever heard of “sour grapes” ?
@Daddy are they more comfortable than the QC35's? My current QC35's make my ears hurt after over an hour of use.
Excellent review. As another reviewer mentioned, I wish that more folk were as honest as you. The Sony MX4's will be a winner if they fix their call quality, the controls in extremely cold weather, the comfort of the ear cups (they need to be deeper) and the ability to connect with multiple devices. They also need to do something about their casing - the MX3's are sometimes very difficult to fold the right way!! They need to keep it simple.
Thanks, I hope the M4's copy the earcup design/depth from the new XB900N
Dave Rogers dude.... you hit the nail on the head!y thoughts exactly
100% this. If they fix those issues (for me, just call quality and ability to connect with multiple devices), they will be unmatched. Can't wait.
Absolutely agree with you but I also find the MX3s touch controls are very hard to get right when trying to pause or play music with a single tap... didn't have this issue with the first generation
You can pair them with multiple devices by pressing and holding the power button for 7 seconds, it will go in pairing mode.
What a review man! Even when I'm not gonna buy them ever it was still an extensive review
Because of this review, I’ll be buying these. What’s most important to me is the mics and you’ve gone into more detail about that then the 20 other reviews I’ve watched. Thank you!
Got a pair myself, the Mic is amazing for the other person on the end of the phone.
Same. I need these for work. Picking them up tomorrow
Yeah, easilly worth the 100 us extra to be able to actually have a conversation. I agree that sound probably is better in the Sony headphones, but you cant have a conversation with anyone in it, even if background noice is just very low. With these I can drive, cut my lawn, sitt in coffeshops, stand in trafic and who ever I speak to cant hear any of it. Amazing. Maybe they should cost 299 per noice-canceling, 299 for you, and 299 for the person in the other end? In that case they are cheap :)
I got the Sony 1000 and had to return them because I got them for work. Calling is just impossible. I don't know if I should get the Bose, I want the best headphones for phonecalls. And I want to be able to connect to my mac and my android phone the same way I do with my Jaybird x3. Just pause there, pay here and the headphones know what I'm doing. BUT IDK. I don't see any other option and some people say Bose 700 are not worth the money. I just don't know what to do
Charly Cardeño get the Bose 700. I work from home so a lot of times I’m working at cafes, lounges, and restaurants. I purchased and tested the Bose 700 with my colleague and he said he never noticed I was even at a loud public location and the sound quality is great. The microphone technology is second to none. Trust me man you won’t regret it.
I just got em, and i love them, been using them for about 2 months. What-ever issues they had with the app has been fixed, because i haven't had any issues with them. I love the sound, and the right amount of bass (although i do like more bass tbh) and overall, they seem to work really well. I've never owned the models before, so i can't compare, but overall, i think they are worth it.
I got mines like a month or two after they dropped, i’ve been using them ever since and they’re great, they are really similar to the qc35s, but imo that’s not bad at all
@Tim G mine come in monday! how do you like yours?
Does it sound better with wired cable compared to wireless ?
I was going to buy the jbl live 650 but after watching the Panasonic hd 605n review I totally changed my mind.Thanks for such great video 😃
No problem, the 605N is one of the best kept secrets in headphones in my opinion
I would be wary, if you have not yet purchased the Panasonic 605n, the headband is ridiculously brittle. I treated mine with the utmost care for 18months and one day I put them on the band just above the hinge of the left cup just cracked and split. It was ridiculous. Sent them back to amazon for a full refund (thanks amazon) and got the XM3 - now only 240 Sterling. They are way lighter and there isn’t any ANC hiss like with the Panasonic 605n. Way more control with the EQ on the app as well and better build quality.
The JBL Club series is good
I was interested in them also.
But i went for the more expensive sony XM3, I really like them.
Yep, microphones and conversations paramount for me. Just comvinced me to buy.
These headphones are amazing. High quality sound, Bluetooth connecting to different devices with ease, iPhone etc., turns off automatically if idle, so battery last seemingly forever between charges, works well with phone calls - my third pair of Bose (not counting the Sport earbuds, and multiple fantastic soundbars. I'm a believer and I walk the walk.
I agree.
Always appreciate honest reviews. Good one.
Thank you for the review. I was really excited to hear about these since I"ve been waiting to upgrade my QC35s for a while, but now I think I'll just keep them considering the sound quality is essentially the same.
Maybe it's due to everyone's hearing being a bit different but I noticed a huge difference myself.
For video conferencing, these are the best. The mic IS the most important thing for Zoom, etc.
I bought Bose 700 at a discounted price of 330 USD and am absolutely loving them. At this price the value these deliver is incomparable to Sony or Sennheiser. I have always been a fan of Bose's warm and natural sound signature. Sony sound a bit boomy and unnatural to me. Plus the noise cancellation of Bose 700 is top notch.
$269 for me
Yeap Bose is for the purists. Sony for the doofheads
@@ShanilkaHerath You sound dumb as fuck.
Same. I will stick with my QC35II
As someone who's averaging 300+ flights per year, I have my QC35 on at least 2 hrs each day of the year, southern hemisphere as well as northern, at the beach or on mountains, in the cold of Norway or the heat of Oman, moist and dry environments, they always provide me with excellent sound, good enough noise cancellation and sometimes usable phone/skype call quality in noisy environments. What I am looking most for with the new Bose 700 is natural call quality in noisy environments. Thanks for your honest review which offers me some assurance that these are going to be better in that department. The QC35 had huge issues with connections as well for the first 10-15 revisions of their firmware. For the past 8 months it's been a smooth ride though, especially when switching between laptop and phone, during taxi and takeoff.
Who else is just staring at the screen with the changing videos in the background?
what is that thing by the way?
ME. WHAT IS IT!? I WANT IT
@@bab027 i have found it, it is Tivoo by Divoom

Nope reading the comments
Not me. You're the only one.
I have both headphones, I keep the Bose at the office for all my phone calls and I use the Sony for music, I love them both, each of them has their own strengths.
Juan Mm exactly
Yup. Right. I don't hear lot of music so I'm happy with my NC 700.
Bought them when they got out more than a year ago. Great sound, confort, and anc. The best spec for me is the mic clarity on phone calls, I do spend a lot of time at work speaking in foreign languages (spanish, english, german) and because of my french accent it was'nt always easy to be understood. With this headset it has been much much easier, especially with all the video meetings we have in 2020. If you have the budget don't hesitate.
Hey are you still using them. And do you still recommend them.
I've had these for over 6 months and i can honestly say they're super comfy to wear on the ear and the mic quality is good as you said yourself. although there are a few faults with the headphones, it does struggle to play music when there has been a few occasions where im sat on a bus & the road surface is rather bumpy. although it does have a 19hr battery life it seems like a lot less. and even though i did say its comfortable to wear on ear the headset is a little slippery as i do tend to keep having to adjust the headset.
I use these for everything - from Music, Audio Books and General Entertainment to Skype Calls and phone conversations. The microphone's ability to be clear anywhere you are makes this a perfect fit for my situation. I work remotely, so other headphones that do not provide the high end microphone features could not be an option. True - they are over priced. Consumer, choose what is best for your everyday needs!
Good review.
I can definitely see where they can be valuable to someone who uses the mics quite a bit
I'm in the same boat. That's also why I used the QC 35s until the 700s came out. The call mics on the XM3s were just no good for speaking in noisy environments.
I work in a noisy environment and that's why I ended up with these over 1000xM3s. Friends have the Sonys and no one can clearly hear them.
Call quality was the determiner for me also - I too work remotely and need to have people hear me clearly and be able to hear people clearly. Also, personal preference - I felt the metal would band would hold up better over the life of the headphone. My last ones (beats by Dre) broke on the band where they folded.
@@lgarcia1249 Are the Bose 700 good for phone calls and conference calls then? I don't mean, decent. I mean, GOOD, like hight quality, like 400 usd quality? Please tell me!!
Think I'll stick with my qc35 and wait for the 2nd gen 700. Though I hope there will be some qc45.
Excellent and unbiased review, agree with all points said! Saved me $50-$100 dollars... Honesty still does pay- Subscribed!
I appreciate that
Man!, if only reviewer where this DIRECT and straightforward about the products they review. MAN what a great review! 😁👌 Great, brief, review.
Hey thanks for the heads up, I'm coming from a QC35 (v1) have had them for 4 years and the sound to me is what I like, so knowing that they left it the same is positive in the sense that, at least it isn't worse and it will be 'as good' possibly by now 2 years later, had some minor improvements. Shopping against the Sony XM4s, I like the battery notification improvement where it says hours and minutes vs QC35/XM4s saying battery %, I'm a fan of the design personally, the 20 hours of battery life is the same as the QC35s which I have used mine every day for 4 years, often for 16 hours a day and they've never died unless I didn't charge them overnight, and also apparently these are more comfortable. So that's how I landed where I did, but enjoyed the video, thank you!
Thanks for the review. Now I made my decision.
I bought mine at a special price at 300 euros and I’m loving how they feel and sound , maybe because it’s the first time I try headphones of this calibre.
I just bought mine, guess how much...... 228 dollars !!!! US I am charging them now ! And new not refurbished, they were cheaper I had to get the white and rose color I think that's what it is, my first higher end as well, I had beats but those were cool but to me I don't consider higher end
Thank you 🙏🏻
Btw what is the small monitor in the background? The 5inch monitor.
Do a review on the Sony WF 1000XM3 truly wireless earbuds please
I jus bought the 700s a month ago. My QC 35s stopped working "(after 20 months with 2 yr warr on em)". I use headphones at least 2 hrs everyday. In the car with a little bit of cancellation I even use them as personal monitors at band practice. I briefly auditioned the Sony M3s. They do have more bass with an open sound stage. However, the 700s have more detail. The 700s do have better detail than the 35s. Either one is a great choice. Jus have $550. so you can get the warranty. This stuff will give wear out after 2000 hrs.
@That Guy what do you think about the comfort between both of them. My ears stick out a bit and wearing the Sony xm3s after awhile starts to hurt my ears, in your opinion after testing both which do you think would be more comfortable?
Why the fuck would u use noise cancellation in tge car. Do u want to die. U cant hear sounds from ur surroundings. U should never use noise cancellation in a car at all. Lmao ur stupid
@@user-he7sc3fg3r That's why OP said he uses a bit of noise cancellation. There are 11 levels to choose from he could just choose a lower level and use the ambient sound control to hear his surroundings.
I’m wondering which model I should get, the 35s or the 700s. I listen to music about six to eight hours a day on normal days. Sometimes I have days I don’t, some days it’s just two to three hours. What can you recommend for overall heavy listeners? I really love the 35s as I got to experience them when they had a display at Target and Best Buy, but honestly I’m looking for the most reliable ones!
I drive a big rig for a living. Visual scenes are a much more useful tool for driving vs hearing. You would be surprised how loud road noise is when you your used to noise cancellation. After all... We lose our precious hearing from age 2 and up. Jus don't realize it. I use the Nuraphones for bass heavy music and the 700s for Jazz and softer music. They sound a little better/cleaner Than 35s. Maybe 25%. There more comfortable, built better, and the slide tap features are useful. Only complaint I have is after I charge em. The prompt tells me the same battery % as b4 I charged em. Their not the best on the market. But, for $300. Their reasonable. Ultimate Ears are pretty sweet in-ears. Very expensive tho......
Great review I was trying to research more information about Bose 700 headphones and couldn’t find anything that would justify paying $400 for these headphones
I have the Bose Q 25s and they work great.
I wonder is if there is A sound difference between the Bose Q 25s and Bose Q 35s?
Great honesty, thanks a lot
Thank you for being honest!
Great honest video🔥
This is probably the most useful review I have ever heard. I have been waiting for these headphones to arrive in NZ. They are now available her for $699NZ and this review has made me stop dead from buying them. Very useful info, very honest review. Thank you.
Great review - honest and to the point! Whats your thoughts on the Microphone? I want to buy a great wireless headset that is great for VoIP calls like - Skype/ Teams etc? Would you recommend the Sony MX3 then? Or something else? A lot of reviewers focus on the sound for playing music - which I think is important, but is there a wireless headset that does both microphone/ NC/ music listening really well?
the 700s are currently cheaper than the qc35s in some parts of europe

Nice review. Just got my 700 yesterday. I'll be keeping them since they are LUXE SILVER. Watch for my review shortly.
Where is your review? ☺️
@Kiaralem it's coming...
Thanksss for you honest review pal
I'm glad I got these a year later where all these bugs with the app has been fixed haven't had any issues with smart assistant, and noice cancelation etc. Thanks for the honest review!
Just got mine today, I personally love them! I had the qc35 and the 700s are a upgrade.... but not a huge upgrade
I agree with you. a bit different with the TOUCH functionality. But after a while, I love it.
Younes they are so much easier to use it seams like
Multiple paring up to 8 devices is a nice feature.
Younes way better than beats if u ask me
Great review! I’m going to stick with my QC 35 ii’s for now. Perhaps the next gen 700’s will be better.
Just picked up the brand new B&O H9's they sound amazing. Thought about Bose, but B&O offers another level of clarity and richness of sound.
R H this is exactly my problem, do you have B&O H9i or v3?
Thanx, I like honest reviews like this, I'm gonna subscribe :)
I bought them and compared them, I really like the sound quality comparing to the others, its clear, and the noice cancelling is decent.
I’m staying with my QC35-IIs (have 2 pair - one with customized colors). I don’t want to be dependent on the app, and I agree Bose was simply chasing Sony with these new ones. Great review!
No lol, sony chased bose, bose started making noise cancelling headphones in the 80's
Love the honest review!
Any comment about the microphone quality on calls? I work in a noisy environment and am looking for good quality noise cancelling for audio plus the mic. As far as I'm aware these are good for that, and the only competition is the Jabra 85H in the mic department.
I love mine! They sound amazing and look great.
Bought them yesterday, no problems connecting to the app. Apps ultimately will have an update and there will be a fix. Sound wise is subjective and depended on what you are used to listen to. To me it's very good and could not hear a difference with the sony 1000xm3. In fact the sony was quite troublesome with their automatic noise cancelling feature to the point you had to disable it all together and also you could not have 2 devices connected at the same time, whereas bose doesn't have this problem. To me the price(now lower a bit) is in turn to justify the design and the existence of the QC 35 that already sells at a lower range.
if you had to recommend overall between the sony's, qc35ii and this, would you say the 700s are the better ones for sure?
@@BardiaIsOnTH-cam definitely. However if money was an issue then the QC35II would be the 2and best
I’d say it’s the build quality that makes them more expensive. There’s no doubt that the quality of the materials and finish is a cut above the QC35s and Sony (insert long terrible name here). I have the original QC35s and I love the way they sound. Yes they could be better but I enjoy how they are quite warm and I can turn them up as loud as I want without sharp treble hurting my ears. They have nice bass that’s loud without being overpowering and the mids are quite natural sounding (vocals and acoustic guitars especially).
Thank you for the review. I was trying to decide between the Sonys and these. Ultimately I chose bose for a) build quality (I've heard some bad things about the Sonys), b) the ability to connect to 2 devices at once and c) the ability to keep using these while charging. I am a bit worried about the app, but hopefully they have fixed it by now... (also I got them on sale, so the price isn't really an issue for me either)
wHY YOU MESIONED ABILITY TO CONNECT 2 DEVICES AT ONES ON BOSE IF SONY'S CAN DO THE SAME??? STUPID TO TAKE THIS AS A PRO OVER THE SONY'S... AND SON'S ARE BUILT VERRY WELL TO, SO WHAT YOU HEARD ABOUT THEM IS BULLSHIT!!!
One thing I’ve noticed with any pair of noise canceling headphones is the noise cancellation starts to wear and it’s with all noise canceling headphones not just Bose that’s why I tell people not to stretch them out and be careful with them because if their not as tight of a fit then the noise cancellation won’t work as well.
Do you need to purchase a separate aeroplane adapter to listen to inflight entertainment, such as emirates. This will be my first purchase of headphones . Thank you in advance for any advice
I lost my cq35 II so I bought the 700 about 2 weeks ago.
I love the design and the look of it. The ANC is awesome.
BUT the sound is exactly the same as the 35.. I can't notice any different from the 35 in sound quality.
Try making a phonecall to somebody wearing them. Noise cancelling mic is really useful.
I actually noticed a huge difference myself.
@@lionelbaden7634 I'm actually curious why people care so much about call quality. The only thing I still make calls for is making restaurant reservations or doctor appointments, and for that I usually dial the number and hold the phone up to my ear.
Can you use it without the app? Is there a passive mode? What is the sound quality without the app, and with the absolute minimum of features enabled? What features are absolutely required?
Last question 😅
Will mezone be counted as the “ top 5 earbuds under 100€”?
I'm happy with my Sennheiser PXC 550
I have it and purchased today that 700
I like the headphones but they were slipping off my head from the back whenever I looked upward. Slippery little buggers. I took mine back and they gladly gave me an exchange for a new tighter pair. Most people were complaining just the opposite that they felt they were too tight but I have a smaller head and probably just got a looser pair (maybe a flaw.) The 2nd pair feels better but the material in general still makes them a bit slippery on my head.
Hi @gamesky, so what do you recomend for the best for noise cancelling headphone and quality clear sound? Nuraphone? Sony? Or QC35 II? OR which is not in list
I looked at both of these after upgrading from Bose Soundlink II, but in the end and with research I went with Sennheiser PXC550. An older model (bt 4.2 I think) but no connection issues and the best sound quality from all three. Basic noise cancelling which is all I need and only 230 on Amazon
I beg to differ, I’ve never once used the Bose app. Been using all my Bose products without it and works perfectly fine. When it’s on it automatically connects no issues, nothing
thanks for this. You confirmed my suspicions. ;)
I returned both mine, next day,
Great vid! What’s the background music?
Great review. I just picked up the XM3's for 250,- because the Bose is still relative new(er), there weren't any big drops during the Black Fridays Geek Fest. Price wise this review is spot on and i couldnt justify the difference just on the mic-quality.
Still enjoying my XM3s. If mics were the biggest deal to me, then yeah i’d get the 700s. But so far, love my headphones. Excited to see what Sony comes up with next!
the XM3's are just too good that unless something amazing comes along there really is no reason to look at other options
@@OfficialGamesky there’s XM4 now lol
I just got a Sony ad before watching this video LOL
lmao lol rolf
I currently own the QC 25. How much of an improvement is there between that and the new 700s?
Thanks, you made me feel good
I've been a bose fan for a long time. They were my first pair of expensive headphones (QC35) and honestly looking back. I've been using them for 5 years and i think i paid about 500 AUD for then when i got them. if i could go back in time and if it was priced at 1k i would still buy them. they were revolutionary at the time and for me.
So this year i was looking for an upgrade. as much as i love my current QC35's i wanted an upgrade and for 4 months i was leaning very heavily into Bose, like an apple fan for the iphones. (though i'm an android user) and was about to get it. i spent a few days after classes going into stores with the MX3's and 700's constantly comparing and contrasting.
Now this is from a Bose fan who would've loved nothing more than to buy another bose pair. It's multi pairing feature sounded amazing and i'm not audiophile so i was happy with just better ANC and ambiance mode compare to my QC35s. But most important of all. Comfort. Bose is the king in comfort. they shape the inside of the earphones to match the fact that the back of your ear protrudes out more than the canal and so it's shaped so your ears don't touch the insides not to mention it's soft. End of the day for comfort it's bose all the way,
But in the end i chose theMX3's. Honestly, i'm insanely tempted to buy both (i'm not rich but i'm not the type to spend a little on a lot of small things but instead spend a lot on a little of big things. I had enough savings and really want both). Though i haven't bought the 700's yet i am very happy with my MX3's. Comfort is lacking but i got it for really cheap (since i was scouting deals) about 320 AUD which translates to about 220 USD for a great pair of headphones. maybe in a year or 2 i'll get the bose. I'm really salty the MX4's didn't come out but what can you do. MX3's are a good product and while i'm gonna be angry if the MX4's release next year and are a major improvement, so far so good
I am not surprised at all that Bose came out the a product more expensive than everything else. To me, that has always kind of been their thing. They market home sound equipment that offers a hyped, processed sound. People drink the juice, and because the price is high it must be the best, right? They had it cornered with the QC line for a long time because they DO know how to do ANC. Maybe now they will learn how to design good sounding headphones.
@Ezugo Obuekwe The new Master and Dynamic MW65's sound absolutely incredible, blow the Sennies out of the water.
Thanks so much for this video. MJ (singer) from Temporal Comet just had his pair of Sony 1000x die, sent them back, and was offered a Crazy a discount on an upgrade to the m3s. We always preferred Sony to Bose, but your video really helped with the decision to confidently choose Sony again. Thanks human! 💥💚 Quick question - you said you couldn't justify keeping them - would you have two pairs of wireless ANC headphones just to have a back up?
Thanks, you commented on what I am focusing on; the noise cancelling on the microphone side. I tried the Cowin E8 and the E8 upgrade and they are ok but the microphone picks up all the sound. I was looking at the Bose 700 next but the $400 mark is high. I tried the QC 35, the M3 and the 700's at the store. All sounded better than the E8 but not worth the $$. However I am still not sure about how well or how much difference there is in the noise cancelling untill your vidoe; looks like the M3's would be the best but probably not good enough. Will probably end up with a wired set with a boom microphone. Recommend any boom microphone headphone?
You are now my reliable source for headphones. Keep up the good work 😁
Great review
I also don't like the fact that there is gap on the sides between headphones and your head
Hello, thank you for the video! What headphones would you recomend for BEST noice canceling? I don't mind for the sound, the main feature I look for is total noice canceling and as I see from the video Bose 700 doesn't really totally cancel the noice (like hear completely nothing). So is the Sony model better then? Thank you.
I've tried various pairs of QC35s and they all just sounded a little muddy and lacking clarity in the mids and highs for me. Tried a pair of Sony Wh-100XM2s and had my mind blown. Guess I'll get the XM3s
Great review. I also bought and returned the 700 headphones as well. Same issues you mention here.

Discovered your channel while looking for 1more reviews since they’re only $60(30% off + $10 Whole Foods Prime day coupon) and I just bought them partially based off your review and a few others! Thanks for helping me feel more confident about that purchase! I almost bought these seinnheiser headphones that are $80 instead of $200 but I restrained myself since I already bought the earbuds haha. Have you tried the Pasonomi earbuds?? I’ve been fascinated by them and would love to hear your take on them- charging case for earbuds also charges phones and has good sound quality. It’s $40-50 and got thousands of good reviews on Amazon but I hesitate to buy earbuds from smaller brands often
Thanks. I haven't checked those out yet, I will have to look into them.
Tbh the only problem is that the sound quality is flat. Everything else is bomb. Build, design, noise cancelling, mic. They shoulda really added an EQ and better quality for sound
Bugs are easy to fix updates will solve the issue however it’s unacceptable for product to be released with such flaws.
Great video and you brought up very good points.
Upgraded from my old QC35s but I'm probably going to return mine too after two weeks of having them. Tbh the app for the QC35s was also annoyingly glitchy. It's pretty hasty on Bose's part to release an equally glitchy app for the Bose 700s. Another issue I noticed and haven't found a resolution for is the left side cup will randomly start making a popping or crackling sound. It's very subtle but after reading through a few online posts, all I kept seeing was Bose suggesting different troubleshooting instructions that have resolved nothing. I'm not about to start troubleshooting problems on a pair of a $400 headset after having them only for a few days.
I had the QC35 and they wonked, Bose CS is first rate and they sent me the updated QC35ii and I was happy at first, then I began to realize that the range was terrible and the app was really bad. Can't go 15 ft without phone disconnecting and the app has to be restarted all the time" hmm we have a problem here". I think Bose is losing Quality control, just read their forums.
RGGn DFW Yesterday was resolved: Bose has delivered a new app that fixed the defect (on IOS)
I bought the sonys and omg there awesome
Nice review. Can these be used for PC gaming? My PC has bluetooth connectivity. Looking to use the mic in game etc.
Not sure, but most BT headphones if you enable the mic will switch into a low quality "call mode" connection that makes it sound like you're listening to music/game sounds over the phone. I heard bluetooth 5 might support simultaneous high quality audio + mic input though so this might be ok, but I wouldn't count on it 100%
Did you check how they feel from a heating standpoint? I tried to switch from QC35 to QC35II & my ears were burning with new generation.. wondering about the 700
I had the Bose older version of Bluetooth headphones they were ok. Then I got the Sony WH9000 in silver they are a lot better and noise canceling is stronger on the Sony compared to my old Bose. Il try these Bose but I think my next headphones I get are upgraded SONY ones they work best for me but everyone has different opinions and mine is I’m sticking with SONY Next upgrade
Actually they fixed the connectivity issues with iphones... I'm using on android though never faced any connectivity issues with android..but these headphones are excellent when used to take phone calls..it absolutely cancels outside nice the other person hears....way better than the qc35 and the sony..
How is the comfort on these compared to the QC35s? Thanks
just bought them and the sound is slightly more muffled than qc35II. Feeling a bit dissapointed by the sound, besides that everything else is better than QC35
Gamesky - you explained it well, I faced the same issue with app connectivty and charging issue via macbook pro. But one thing you din't explain what you miss in terms of sound quality, I think price hike is for the design and rest all same. Finally I returned it because of those two issues.
I also bought the Bose 700 and Returned them the same day and Got the Sony 1000 mx3. Better Quality Sound and the App Works👌 Loving Them🎧💙
Yep they are decent if you don't make calls, or if you like intrusive NC, distant sound, only one connection at a time, shallow cups.

Or if he likes to boil his ears.
I bought my 1000xM3 for 250€, didn't even blink. Couldn't be happier with them
If you live in an area with a lot of winds or low temperature, I heard the sensors get fucked up.
@Lucas Silva Boas Lucas! Não consigo efetivamente comparar os XM3 aos Sennheiser porque nunca os experimentei. O que te posso dizer relativamente aos Sony é que o cancelamento de ruído é absolutamente fantástico. Experimentei conduzir o meu Polo de 2008 (que é bastante ruidoso) enquanto usava os headphones e não ouvi um único barulho. Mesmo quando vais a caminhar na rua não consegues ouvir os teus próprios passos. Chega a ser ridículo 😂Quanto à qualidade de som são os melhores phones que já usei na minha vida. O bass está muito bem presente, sendo que é muito clean e punchy. Os mids e highs são claríssimos, consegues mesmo distinguir todos os instrumentos e de onde o som vem. Se mesmo com a assinatura de som original não estiveres satisfeito, a app da Sony é extremamente útil para equalizares o áudio ao teu gosto (bass-boost, treble boost, etc). A bateria é fantástica. Dura dias e dias se não os usares durante longos períodos de tempo. USB-C é um bónus agradável e é sempre bem vindo em minha casa 🥰Eu pessoalmente adoro o look, embora isso dependa de preferências individuais. Quando fazes o unboxing e pegas neles sentes mesmo que é um par de headphones premium.
É esta a pequena review que te consigo fazer. É muito dinheiro para um par de headphones, mas acredita que se tiveres essa disponibilidade financeira vale muito a pena!
I wonder how those would run for iPad/iPhone music production with that bluetooth 5.0 feature
Do ipads even have bluetooth 5? The hardware is usually 1 or 2 years behind market leaders like Samsung 🌈
Good video. Opinion well laid out. Thanks.
Butts in the thumbnails !
I’m tired of products requiring an account to use or even an app sometimes. You saved me from making a mistake. Thanks.
I'd agree with this; sometimes simple is better.
same, instantly not interested in this headphones
Can I charge and listen to them at the same time?
Hey man where did you get that big Apple Watch screen next to your monitors
The bar the ear cups adjust on for 400 dollars that should not scuff like that
