#sony1000XM3 #boseQC35 #ANC Headphones
Last year when we pitted the Sony 1000XM2 up against the Bose QC 35 Series two, the Sony’s won cause they had the better performing technology. But bose still walked away with a close second cause they had far better build quality, far better fit, and they looked much better than the Sony’s. And it looks like Sony took that to heart cause now we have the all new Sony WH-1000XM3. So… are the Sony 1000XM3 finally the complete package… or do the Bose QC 35 Series 2 still have some fight left in them?

GYMCADDY do a review on nuraphones
Sony are the 1 at the mo. I want bowers and Wilkins to up date the PX model and drastically improve comfort and to improve NC and sound quality. Bose 35 iii or qc45 could be better but I don't think they will improve much
GYMCADDY no brainer! Awesome and thorough review!
GYMCADDY i just got the sonys m3 - when i make phonecalls people keep tellin me theres an echo on their end! Have you experienced this at all with the sony wh1000-xm3’s??
Very well done and detailed video review!! Subscribed .. thank you

The Bose microphone sounded WAY better to me. A bit more sibilance, yes, but the clarity was significantly better. Sony's mic sounded muffled.
I agree.
After 1.5 hour comparing them in the store i made a decision. I loved that the sony had so many nice features and looked slightly better, but there is one spec that only matters for me and that is the sound quality. Both headphones have an amazing sound quality but the bose feels more natural. It really sounds like an high end headphone, while the sony sounds like a better version of a normal headphone. It really depends on your needs but both are worth the money by far. The noise cancelling is about the same, i slightly like the ANC of bose more. Do you love the touch control, a better app and a modern look, go for the sony. Do you want the best sound quality, go for the bose.
Edit:
Proved myself wrong. Bose died after 2 months so i had to make the choice again and went with the sony this time. Out of the box the bose sounds better, but the equalizer makes the sony better. However, i like the ANC of the bose more, but that may be because i got used to it.
What do you mean by the Bose died?
@@ANONYMOUS-qi7lx It began doing weird things like making cracking sounds, sometimes the music was very low volume out of nowhere, and the most annoying thing is that it sometimes wouldnt turn off/on anymore. Then i had to wait like 15 minutes before it turned off or on. Of course the chance that the bose you buy has these problems are very small because it is still a high end product but yea it was still fcked for me.
@chickenWorld. what setting do you use in the Sony App? I am trying to get the best sound with great bass
Honestly, the dual connection on the Bose is such an underrated feature. You can be watching TH-cam on your laptop or doing work and in the middle of it, you can hear your phone notification then hit the button and it will read it out to you. Or if a call comes, it will ring on your headphones and you can just take the call with a single button. Or maybe you need to go to the toilet, jump off the laptop and while hanging a a dirty shit you start playing youtube on your phone and it will come through instantly. All without having to reconnect the device each time.
tamrix I currently have headphones that have dual connection and I would rather have headphones that do not. I know some people like it but I only want to hear what’s coming from the device I have it connected to. I don’t like it when I’m watching a video on one device and it gets interrupted with a notification.
How is it a good thing when your phone notification distracts you when you are listening to a good ass music from computer? Dual connection is unnecessary
Moki Boki It’s so easy to disconnect a device though?
Not gonna lie, but I don’t spend £300 on headphones so I can hear my phone notifications whilst watching something on my laptop. I buy headphones for their sound quality. Period. Comfort is important for extended listening but in all seriousness, there are very few headphones that are uncomfortable....
I completely agree. I use other brand of headphones with same functionality at my work. Lot of meetings, youtube and udemy tutorials, and yes, some music. But then there are frequent business or private phone calls. I don't want to remove my head phones every time I had to switch from laptop sound to phone. What people seems not to get is that you can easily disable other audio device, so if I watch movie at home, I disable audio input from phone or vice versa depending what I need.
I felt betrayed by Sony when they did nothing to fix my cracked band issue, l loved my Sony headphones but they let me down with quality and customer support, never coming back to Sony even if the issue has been fixed (which I don't know), I'm happy with Bose right now.
That's a thing Sony does. They have great products in every single department, but they couldn't care less if you bought something from them. Had multiple issues with Sony (and Sony Ericsson) devices over the decades. Sony simply doesn't care. Repair costs every single time would've been nearly the retail price every single time. I just want Microsoft to drop their headphones, they contrary care for their customers after-sell.
Adrian Martinez how is bose’s service?
Same just got my Bose today and enjoy them
Why do all these reviewers speak with the same melody? Kinda like how all news casters speak the same way.
He talks like techsource right? Hahaha
Maybe to sound more professional.
Certain rhythms are used by professional speakers to achieve different tones and deliver different messages.
I remember hearing of this on a comedy podcast. According to the podcast, this kind of thing is well known for media producers so it would make sense that seemingly all reviewers on TH-cam utilize the same pattern.
Waqas Raza maybe cause they use the same script?
Yeah I can't watch some videos because of this.. Its really fucking annoying
Bose all the time, the Sony made my ears hurt after ~Half an hour, the bose I could wear all day.
Even though the Sony have better specs, nothing beats the comfort of the bose and for me that's the most important part.
Same
Muuhnkin this is one feature that can beat Sony single handed.
Yeah. You will want to listen to music more with this Bose QC35ii.

I like the curves on Bose :), and fits better too. Voice clarity is somewhat better on Bose (both phonecalls and songs). But I still got the Sony for the next-generation ANC and the better Bass with the Equalizer on the App. It fits good enough for me! Sound quality and customization is more important for me than making calls.
I work on a noisy machine floor with both high-pitched noise from chains and low-pitched noise from pumps, and trust me, I tried both, and XM3 is noticeably quieter, and music also sounds better (and warmer) on Sony with ANC on (you can check for yourself and you will see). The better ANC is so worth it when you are in this environment.
I love my Bose QC35'S. As a programmer these help me stay less distracted.
By turning the BOSE QC 35 II noise cancelling on medium instead of max, you can reduce the wind noise substantially.
Exactly!
Dumb little nitpick @ 11:07 but it doesn't pause the music, it keeps playing very quietly. Not a big deal with music, but I wish it actually did pause it so if I had to use quick attention while watching TH-cam or Netflix, I wouldn't have to rewind to where I was.
Great comparison though! Finally, someone made a good and thorough one.
Exactly. They should add an option to also pause with a firmware update in the future.
Cant you just tap to pause anyway? Or is it inconvenient because noise cancellation is still on so you have to tap to pause and then cover the right ear?
Bass on the QC35's is really pretty decent once you crank the volume up to around 80%.
I just bought SONY WH-1000XM3. You’re review will help me with what to expect when I’ll open it on m’y 36th birthday this year.
Thank you for making thé comparaison between these two. I hesitated at the store between these two.
When turning Bose’ nc to “low” mode, the wind noise just disappears at all, that nc from Bose is awesome. Can’t wait for new new series, they’ll pee over their competitors for 2/3 years like they always do until any brand matches up to their quality.

@@pyrohead3166 you dont know the joke stfu and go away. It was a joke
that graphics tho xD
Bruh omg it looks just like it
I love the review and I really liked the little interesting details such as the testing of the touchpad on the XM3 and pointing your phone at the camera. I saw all your videos on the XM3s several times and they convinced me to get them. So, thanks, have them since friday! Awesome stuff, subscribed.
Hi .. did you get the m3 ? And HOW is it after months? As I would like to buy it.. but some people they complain after tow month of using!!
I tried both of these units on at Best Buy and I got to say the sound quality on the Sony's sounded a whole lot better to me. The Bose was not as clear and they sounded muddy with anything that had bass.
I’ve had the Bose Q35II’s for over a year. I wear them everyday. They’re great. You can buy replacement ear cup pads if they wear out. I bought new pads after a full year of daily use. I’ve worn my headphone everyday for work and at home. Highly recommend them if you want amazing noise cancelling. FYI, the “plastics parts of the headphones are a composite material. Countless times I’ve fallen asleep with them on in bed and was sleeping on them. They’ve never cracked or broken.
Shane Liberty i loved my qc35s soo much until randomly for zero reason my right earcup stopped working
I got the bose QC35ii for linear sound with great clarity that you can hear separation on different instruments and vocals, comfortability, and able to connect to 2 devices at the same time. Great review.
I have boss QC35 II and I do agree ANC can be annoying a little bit, that’s why I keep ANC at low lever instead of high.
@GYMCADDY solid review. Good amount of detailed pros and cons without getting unnecessarily technical. I’ll be keeping an eye on your channel...
I have a pair of QC35ii already and have been holding of on the Sony till they got it right. Looks like Sony’s nailed it.
Great work. Thanks for your detailed review! I'd love to understand 2 things about how the headphones perform for phone calls. 1) Can you hear your own voice ("sidetone")? When I make a call on the Bose QC35-2s I have to take one side off an ear to hear my own voice. 2) How well does the XM3 handle removing noise that is happening around you (such as your keyboard clicks or your coffee shop noise) for the people on the other end of the call? My Bose QC35-2s seem to actually make these background noises much worse for my call recipients. THANKS!
I don’t really care about noise cancellation too much. I just want to know which one gives the loudest and clearest music sound. I like to get hyped up on full blast music, usually hip hop or EDM.
Bose makes some nice stuff. But their sound signature is something of a flat dull signature that I can't stand. It works well across a broad range of music. But it's still so blah to me. The Sony's have a more uplifted and exciting sound signature that's similar to JBL.
Depends in Content: Classic vs Rock
This vid honestly helped me out when deciding between the two. The Bose qc35ii are very comfortable, but the Sony xm3’s are a perfect fit for me.
As a current owner of the QC35II. Having tried both XM3 and XM2 at the Best Buy, I can safely say they both blow my QC35II out of water in terms of Sound Quality and NC. For me, XM3 corrected many flaws in the XM2 and is probably the best NC headphone ever produced by the human being. My dream headphone pair would be Sennheiser HD 820+Sony WH-1000XM3.
So why did I go with QC35II, a much inferior headphone in terms of sound quality and NC? Because of its construction quality and comfort, I don’t want a headphone that has the best sound and NC but at the same time I have to worry about headband cracking issue. So I will hold for another six month or so before I pull the trigger on the XM3.
Have you pulled the trigger?
@@jaimeoliveros8980 Wondering the same thing.
You made my decision a lot easier. I am going to pick up the Sony XM3's tomorrow.
Question: Does the touchpad work with winter gloves on, or do I have to remove them every time I want to change a setting? I live in NYC, and it get's coooold here, I'd hate to have to remove my glove every single time I wanted to raise or lower the volume....sometimes physical buttons are just better...
Nice gimbal shots! Awesome vid!
I hate bose speakers as much as the next guy but I own the QC 15 and they are seriously good. The NC is top notch and sound is legit. I read all the hate and these people are either lying saying they have heard them or never heard them. You can get them used for $50.... go beat that
I actually am using the Bose headphones to watch this video. I am a big headphone fanatic and collector. In my opinion I personally like the QC better
same, after two years now I choose QC 35 II over Sony XM4 because of pressure and durability
Are you still using the bose?
@@ikwuamaesi I am lol
@@TheHeavenlycjx 😅 I was hoping you would've found something worth upgrading to
Hi :) I'd like to buy the Bose qc35 II, but they told me that it was a bad idea to use it while doing sport... Could you relate?😬 Apparently it's not resistant to perspiration...plus, it makes weird nose while running
Still using MDR 1000X and it still perfect for each flight :)
Sony is just superior. That app is amazing.
M I C H barely superior.
M I C H do I have to have the app to use the headphones
Cali United well you can tweak the sound and noice canceling feature. The Bose can't do that.
Johnny Patrick based on what. Did you watch the video? Sony knows audio. But you're just into Bose because the brand?
@@mich6425 totally agree .. Sony is finally a clear winner ... Bose had the crown for a while but I love that fact that there is great competion in this space now with the p550 and the 1000x
Wstch a tons of reviews still don't know which one should i get so i decide to stop watch reviews and don't buy any 😅
The wireless JBL Tune600 btnc for $100 Sounds equally as good.
Me too I don’t know which ones to get
It's been like a month or so of research, I totally relate to this haha.
Sony man. Simple. I own them both and the differences are quite big.
@@Saccord2 am fed up too.. Its been 1 month for me... and both sides..Bose & Sony keep confusing
This is the first video where mics of sony are recommended even though I felt they were trash compared to bose. In all other departments Sony rocks.
Sony's headphones look great in black but that light color man, so *fucking* ugly.
Yep, i can relate to *having to make a review video to chose which expensive headset i should bring to the plane* ...
Thanks for a very good straight to the point review!
Been a Bose QC user for years and very tempted to jump ship. Couple of quick questions, do you believe that Sony could add multipoint connection for IOS via a firmware update since they have BT 4.2? I mean my true wireless jabra elite 65t have multipoint connection and BT 5.0 (a first for true wireless since they are not using BT to communicate between buds). Not sure why Sony didn't put BT 5.0 on these, it is 2018!
I am also hesitant as a lot of the consumer reviews online are talking about abysmal phone call qualities on the XM3's with some having to get actual replacement units (vs Firmware). Can you comment on this?
Thanks again and keep up the good work.
Great review. Thanks for showing the pluses and minuses of both. I'm a Bose fan, have been for years. But these Sony's seem so close that there's no wrong choice here. The ANC, music and sound controls, and the USB-C have me slightly favoring the Sony 51/49.
Such quality content for a small channel! Dope video
wich one is better for work??
The Bose sound great for phone calls all my callers say.
I have the Bose QC 35II and they are fantastic. I’m actually using them right now. I have about 3 hours of homework every weeknight and these headphones help me stay concentrated with my loud family around this. I highly recommend them. Not a single flaw.
@@roche75 yes!
Great video! So informative. Thank you 😊
I do not like the touch controls on the Sony Xm3, the sensor is very sensitive. Every time I pick up my headphones they play for some reason, maybe it’s because I have big hands and fingers graze the outer ear cup? Who knows. The sound is good, but too much mid bass, and it’s a little too over emphasized. The noise canceling is a little better than my qc35 2, but the sound of the Sony’s just sound kind of different, but not in a bad way. I will probably take these back, and stick with my Bose Qc35 2, I like the more balanced natural sound of the Bose. Again, great noise cancellation, but just a little smidge better than the Bose QC35, that does not justify 350 dollar purchase in my opinion. Plus, better mic on Bose, the Sony’s mic is just decent. Bluetooth pairing is better on the Bose, in which you can pair two devices simultaneously, in contrast the Sony you can only pair, which is annoying. Sticking with my QC35 2, waiting for the next Bose QC offering.
Solid review! Owned Bose QC35s for a couple years. Earpads fell apart (and shed). Without a doubt, the Sony WH-1000XM3 are not only better sounding, but better ANC as well. Sold my Bose, purchased Sony's, and I'm much happier now. If sound, comfort, and ANC are important to you, go with Sony.
And yes, the wind noise on the Bose is something most reviewers overlook. As a dog owner, i found the wind noise very annoying when walking the dog. (It's actually worse then presented in this review).
That said, I'm done with Bose headphones. They are over-rated and they under-perform.
The end.
How is the durability of the Sony headphones as far as construction? I'm partial to Bose because my QC 15 headphones lasted me almost 4 years before I got the 35's. I figured the 35's would last just as long, if not longer. I was torn between Sony and bose but ultimately chose Bose because of past experiences. I feel like I regret that decision after this video lol
I'm also curious. Please do share +Hayden Alerte
The build quality on Sony's are good, IMO. The Bose's Earpads actually fell apart after a year of use, and although you get get cheaper replacements (which I did), the overall noise cancelling and comfort were noticeably diminished. The Sony's are comfortable and seem to have a higher quality (p)leather. So, build-quality goes to Sony on this model. At the same price, it's hard to justify purchasing the Bose. Keep in mind, I do like Bose and have owned several Bose speakers, but if you are looking for great sound, best active noise cancelation, comfort, and wireless, skip the Bose. Honestly, I think Bose got too comfortable and Sony really worked to deliver a better product (and succeeded). Hope this helps.
@@HaydenAlerte Very informative! Thank you for your response. My next pair will definitely be sony!
Hayden Alerte, I owned a pair of Bose cq35 i too. How would you describe the change in comfort with the Sony's compared to the Bose's because I really loved the comfort I had with the cq35. Also, is the sound quality of the Sony's better or less better than the Bose's. I always found it a bummer that the cq35's had such a low bass but the midds and high were always nice crisp and sharp! Do the Sony's have that as well just like the Bose's or even better? I would love to know! Trying to decide wheter to get the Bose cq35 ii or the Sony 1000mx3
Great review!
I'm so glad you've been thorough and practical
Hi, great review. Question: I understand that Bose’s rechargeable battery can’t be replaced at the end of its lifespan (several recharging). Can Sony’s new M3 rechargeable battery be replaced after its life ends? Please advise.
Nope, they have the same battery system, so you can't replaced them both.
Listening to this on my QC-35 and I'm happy with my choice. I'm often connected to several devices and that would really bug me if I could only connect to one at a time. I've had the Bose for over a year and have no issues with the ANC and I've worn them straight for 14 hours on flights to Australia. I feel like this review started off biased.
Have you tried Sony XM3 headphones? I have both QC35 II and XM3 and I prefer XM3 for better sound quality and ANC.
Solid thorough video! Great job!
What's the point of presenting anc performance of the headphones with the audio not looped but just played? During the xm3 there's barely any sounds to block...
Dude ur awesome at these things nice man keep it up!
What a creative intro. Very cool!
Any experience with the silver Sony? Does it get dirty easily? If yes is it easy to clean?
My Sony headphones are a year old and they're my most used pair of headphones and they have no discoloration
Great content here. They're all out of the here in satx through the best buy's 😦 I have the sennheiser pxc 550's,the parrot zik's,Bowers and Wilken's Px's and the Sony wh 1000 mx2.... I've been hearing nothing bad about the version 3 of these I'm gonna get a pair when they arrive here again....
11:40 was just reading the tiny poster then the freaking Icon pop out of nowhere. I thought that was some forth wall shit!
Thanks. It’s really help👍
If you are comparing between Sony & Bose, I'd say chose qc35 ii. And if you're comparing between Sennheiser & Bose, that depends on you
SubzUp - good memories from that joint (now closed and replaced with a bbq joint)
Sony for the win!
Switched to Sony from Bose and I’ve NEVER looked back!
Why i am about to buy
And i have to buy one of them
I would like the headphone with best sound quality ,noise cancellation and comfort so that i can wear them for long duration like 7 to 8 hrs daily
Ppz reply
@loue thanks for replying 😊
harsharsenal1 after 5 month, is it still functioning perfectly fine? And is the material holding?
@loue wow, thanks! You answered the main question this video did not.
The absolute deal breaker for me are the Touch controls in cold weather though - I take my headphones everywhere when I go somewhere by bike I whatever and it's kinda useless if the controls go nuts just because its around 0 degrees... Renders them useless for half a year
Thank you for the information with the headache. Very helpfull :-)
Thanks a lot . Great review!
I sat through the whole video even though I am not planning on buying of these headphones just because of how informative the video is. Good job!
😁😁
Hi I've got XM2 I've been using them for over 6 months.
I have been sleeping at night with these on my head. Till date, touch wood no cracking issue with them. The XM3 build quality will surely be way better than the latter. Please don't nurse the fear that the headbands might crack. I guarantee It won't.
Is it just me or he walks just like a GTA character ?
Paul CCraciun yep
Yes!
As a person with a bigger head, with somewhat bigger ears, I'll need to test the Sonys before making a purchase. I currently own V-Moda's M-100s and while they sound nice, with a decent amount of bass, they are NOT great for extended listening sessions.
Have you tried the V-Moda Crossfade 2 wireless? I got a pair and I freaking love them.
I saw you walking down River Road recording this!
@@Evergreen_Juniper lmao creeper alert 📢
Does the audio cable help with the video latency? If not, are there any ways to fix it?
And also, to all people with experience with the WH-1000XM3, how bad is the latency?
BEST review comparison out there. Thank you! Have a sub 👍
Please say or do a video: what is The best headphones if budget is 150€ ?
I have both and also prefer Sony XM3 for better sound quality and ANC. AAFES recently had a sale for XM3 for only $179!
Just brought the Sony WH-1000XM3 even though last month I just brought the 1000XM2. Sony all the way. Always supporting their brand. Japanese Quality
Want to give away your m2's ;)
Jeetu Dhansinghani Never sorry
I'm planning on getting the sony xm3 as my first high quality headphone (i don't count my beats mixr because it's not worth the money) But idk how to ask for it xD feels bad bro.
Bought both ($250 for MX2 and $350 for XM3). For these price points, keeping both, one for my wife and the other for me. (We can fight which one we wear and when). But extremely satisfied with both.
Tony Wei it’s worth it definitely. I think Sony has up their game these recent years. Always supporting their brand.
I listen to rap a lot and the bose qc25 distorts a lot when the bass hits. Are the 35's better?
Ugh even with this review I’m (stupidly) still torn between the two, all the specs are screaming Sony but even with the M3’s slimmer design it still sticks out a lot and looks more bulky than the Bose’s which are a lot flatter because they don’t have that raised bump to allow for gesture controls... ugh
lol same and the 2 device connect
Same here
Ok, it's about what's best for you, I got the Bose, because I tried them both in store for 20 minutes each (thank you, Bestbuy!), I like the design of Bose (I have a big head, M3 clamp pretty hard compare to Bose, but I LOVE the Sony quick attention mode), and I have an AmEx card which gets me an extra 20% discount on top of the $299 Amazon price tag. Which means I sacrificed USB-C, quick attention mode, "better" ANC for $100 (Since, M3 just come out, the price is still $350+tax), for me, it is worth it. But if you feel M3 is comfortable enough, and you really want that quick attention mode, get the M3! If you don't NEED it now (no upcoming air travel, doesn't live in the city), wait, the M3 price will come down in a year, and Bose most likely will upgrade the QC35.
Agree, the 2 device connect, looks and comfort are the things bose does better and I love them.
Zhonglun Wang yeah man definitely, I’m curious when the next Bose set will come out? I haven’t seen anything online about it, I’ve only tried the Bose so far as a friend has a pair and they felt and sounded great to me
Is the delay annoying while watching video or playing games?
Hey man, great video, i think a quiet background music would Up the quality on the video! 😁
Great review, really helped me decide which headphones I want. 👍
I tried to shop for them, but it's more pleasant lying on my ear. Because of the sound, both are great ,so in one word bose wins😁🙂
Is the touch pad on the Sony works only on the right? Or does it work on both because am a lefty.
Ayeee Barbell Brigade 🤙🏻
Such a long review and you maneged to skip the most important part - the sound quality.
Ник М this seems to be a running theme with reviews! Apparently a tool for listening to music on the go is more focussed on style and other non sound related features! I guess if you want a sonically pleasing headphone, you wouldn’t go for either of these.
Ник М get the Sennheiser PXC 550 if you want great sound quality
I own both right now. The noise cancelling has minimal difference in practice (to me). The Bose sounds way better! Tested via tidal on hifi quality there is no comparison. My wife (who is not as audiophile as me) chose the bose after 2 seconds of listening when i changed them in the middle of a song. This is my first bose product and I am very impressed. It is very enjoyable, even compared to my wired high end audio technica headphone with an external dac/amp (upscaled to 196/24 bit). The HiRes logo looks good on the box, but it fails miserably in real comparison. The sony has (in my opinion) too much bass out of the box, which apparently most people value as quality sound...
Any thoughts about new headphones from bose for this year?
Hello these headphone's are really really good in a lot of ways. I've had them for a week now and I can now give a honest review on them. I've have the Bowers and Wilken's Px's,Sennheiser px 550's and the parrot zik's and now these here. The build quality of them has gotten better from the last model mainly the fit. The noise cancelling is simply outstanding. The call quality isn't the best either. The sound signature on them is really good! My ear's did slightly sweat after a few hour's of wearing them though. These are The only headphone's I've ever owned that didn't cut out when I stepped into best buy! The touchpad you have to be precise with the gestures on it or you'll skip a song quite frequently. I also don't like the double tap to answer or pause you have to get that right to do either one of those. And other gripes are the long press of the power button on or off and that dang short ass charging cable they come with. It's like 2 or 3inches....
Wearing Sony WH-1000XM3 listening to this review.
Who else notices the slight audio delay when watching videos with the Sony’s?
I kid you not, as soon as you opened the drawer my mx2 went "boop, please recharge headset"

Amazing video!
Good review!
I’m watching this but I have both 😂
which one is better ?

What would you say, if you compare them to the momentum wireless?
I bought the WH -1000xm2 from last and they work superbly and i find the noise cancelling to be very good but you can still hear. the accumulation of. traffic noise coming from my headphones.Admittedly although quite muted,on one of your other videos you claimed the 1000xm3 drastically reduced traffic sound while you was out and about and also said they blocked out siren sounds like that off an ambulance.Even the 1000xm2 can’t block out siren sounds. from an ambulance although like the traffic noise it reduces the sound.I am so tempted to buy the Sony WH - 1000xm3 but i am wondering if you are overhyping it’s noise cancelling ability.Watching your videos you make it sound like the 1000xm3 completely blocks out traffic noise and even sirens with there piercing sounds.Both the WH. - 1000xm2 and WH - 1000xm3 set be back of three hundred and thirty pounds in England when bought straightaway .So you see it would be a hard decision to want to upgrade to the WH -1000xm3.Hand on heart can you say the noise cancelling is as good as Sony themselves claim it to be compared to the WH - 1000xm2.Four timers better Sony claims the WH -1000xm3 is compared to WH -1000xm2.I strongly feel that this is a marketing ploy from Sony to exaggerate the WH-1000xm3.Please can you confirm to me if this is the case or not because like i said earlier i feel tempted to buy the WH - 1000xm3 but as per usual i have a feeling it is overhyped.
I was in two turns between the XM3 and the QC35II. And I chose Bose. I’m from Russia and it’s about -15 °c in winter, that’s why it will be impossible for me to use XM3. Also Bose are over 120$ cheaper here, then Sony. Even though Sony’s design applies to me more and I don’t think that it’s build quality is bad, QC35II was better deal for me.
Great review.
Sony is killing it. Bought a cheaper pair of over-ear headphones from them, and love the product
