- A few years ago, Bose were the unquestioned king of active noise cancellation in headphones. Then Sony came along and challenged them to an ANC challenge. Now in its third generation, the Sony WH-1000XM3 wins our coveted 5/5 - Ced says that they're the best noise-cancelling headphones ever made, and here's why!

I honestly just saw a review from the "trusted review" and this is one of the best audio review channels I've seen after Jims Review Rooms ... Good Job buddy, go on ... I'll always wait for the latest video from your channel.
Edit it again
Yes - but so sad to see Jimm's review room go.. 🔥🔥🔥
@@johnsonnadar007 I think he will be back

Based on your review I ordered a pair of these. For years I have been an enthusiastic fan of the Bose headphones, and have nearly worn them out anyway (physically-the plastic bands around each headphone has expanded and corrugated). Mind you, I use my headphones every night for around 4-5 hours, listening to music while my wife watches television. To be fair to Bose, I was not using the noise cancelling model (AE2 SoundLink) and was very happy with them. The Sony delivery arrived this afternoon and I was excited to find out (1) How the sound quality compared and (2) How well the noise cancelling design worked. After charging the batteries ( took about 2 hours ) I switched on and paired them with my Macbook Pro. I was delighted to find that there were no problems doing that, but was not ready for the incredible performance. I must say that the sound quality is outstanding, but the noise cancelling was nothing short of unbelievable. I have to say, Sony, that I am very impressed. My buy price here in Australia was $498.00 delivered .
Australian Bloke yo can find them at job hifi for around 390 to 410. So where did you buy from? And I'm looking to buy should I?
wow! takes a lot to beat bose, i'm impressed. cheers from australia
@@Kami_YT They're $400 at most places now, although HN is $540. I got mine at cash convertors for $270 a few weeks ago.
Australian Bloke ice little review thanks so much just ordered myself some very excited

Got mine today..... absolutely amazing cans. I can't take them off.
Still got them stuck on your head?
@@GeneralAeon KKKKKKKKKKKK

Love the sound signature of Sony M3's but the most amazing feature for me is the ability to adjust the cabin pressure during flights when reaching high altitudes and when landing, by activating the atmospheric optimizer of the headphone. I had used it for a couple of international flights and the pain of cabin pressure on my ears, immediately goes away. It's so helpful for travelers like me.
Hi, I also suffer with that "pain" from cabin pressure when flying, it seems to happen me only about 15 before landing, I've tried few things bit nothing, unfortunately, worked. Just wondering do you suffer from constant ear pain, or like myself is it just a few minutes before landing when the altitude is changing, I ask, as if you suffer like myself and these counteract it, I'd definitely be interested in a pair. If you can reply it'd be great, thanks.
Impeccable review! "Voices talking about keyboards" made me snicker so hard
Really good review. Clear, informative and well put together. Great job, thanks.
It does not matter what you buy. Technology keeps advancing(or at least so you are told)and the latest and greatest is never latest or greatest enough. Sony WH MX-1000, Sony WH-MX-1000 M2 and now Sony WH MX-1000 M3 and next year another one or new version with a new code name and so forth. Point being, be satisfied with what you have if it works well. I don't need to replace headphone every year just be the newest version does this or that that the older version does not. I refuse to be trapped on the "upgrade" treadmill.
unless it plateaus like the tablet market, tv, refrigerator, washing maschine or the smartwatch or smartphone which the upgrades are non existent or minuscule where you wont have to upgrade in years.
Took advantage and got the whmx1000 m2 on sale. Amazing piece of equipment. You’re right about not getting stuck on the upgrade train, 32 bit audio processing is a marketing trick as 21 bit is the limit of human hearing.
Sure, we just have to be aware of what is indeed useful for our use and what is just a "nice thing to have". For me, I didn't even feel the slight need to upgrade my M2 for these because I know exactly what I want in my next headphones*, and slight improvements here and there won't cut it. We need a detailed review from Jimsrevieweoom to know how much better is noise canceling now.
*One thing is being able to connect 2 devices at once.
Just buy the old version at a discounted price then.
I tried them for a week and I would never spend 350$ for these.
i tried them at a hifi store, and i can say they feels as comfortable as the bose 35II. The sound is full and lively with a tight bass. The noise cancelling is unreal and i was at a center full of people talking and loud background music, very tricky environment. They are worth every penny in my book.
This is the most formal review ive ever seen
While I’ve ordered one and am waiting for delivery, you reassured me that I am getting the right one.
I've worn these in my local shop and it just stunned me how good the noise cancelling is! It's like you're hit in the face, it's incredible!
Nice to see that model you are getting hold on was Made in Malaysia and not Made in China
90% of Sony's headphones are made in Malaysia. I guess it won't be affected by the USA China Tariffs? hahaha
2:26 that’s the movie pose from Spider-Man homecoming with the spidy outfit in high school uniform! Lol
Guilty of having all 3 - Bose QC35ii, these Sony's and B&W PX - love them all
I was waffling between the Bose and these Sony's I am glad I waited, i ordered these last week I have the neck bud version and It works great
Watching from 5$ earbuds
Shame on you lol
$5 with tax lol
Pickle430 Lmao you’re fucked in the brain
I have a 7€ headphones wireless and are not bad :D
listening*
I just got my pair. And omg, the noise cancellation is un rivaled. I can be at a coffee spot and it will cancel out all noise even people talking. I’ve heard headphones up to $50000, no they don’t sound like a pair of 50k cans but they’re really fun and have a noticeable dark sound. Its kinda freaky how quieter it makes it.
How comfortable are they? Do your ears come in contact with the inside of the eat cups? That was my only gripe with the M2s
do u use z bluetooth mp3 player? if so which ine
So if you were to turn on the noise cancelling function and play white noise music would it mute all human speech? I want to buy these to study, but 350 seems to expensive for me.
@AimeeFritz - a cheaper alternative is a pair of inner ear bud ear phones along with a pair of those workman ear protectors. You won't look as stylish as someone wearing these Sony but at
First of all great job on explaining everything so clearly! The video was well made and the illustrations with examples makes sense! Regarding the NC I would like to know do you feel any pressure on any level of NC on the Sony? Because for the Bose what I hated most is the ear-drum pressure when their NC is turned on... really annoying indeed. Thank you and keep up the great work!
There is not cabin pressure on the 1000xm3 which the qc 35ii does.
I have the MDR1000X (the Mk I of these), and there's no pressure from them.
I confirm the pressure is virtually gone, IMHO. I invite you to judge yourself by watching my USER EXPERIENCE review: czcams.com/video/OTe1LLWwfcs/video.html
On Land, I doubt there would be any Pressure at all as mine also registers as 1.0 atm. Rheuter Cheng is talking about the difference between Land and in the airplane. Bose's Digital NC is probably software based programmed to be virtual isolation 'compressed or pressurized' feeling. Sony never has that Bose NC pressure. My MDR-1000X was fine in the airplane without any engine noise. Pressure imbalances from various airplane heights vs Constant atm + cabin pressure while horizontal in the air varies slightly, that's where atm auto adjusts.
Patiently waiting for mine to show up on my porch🤪🤪
Black or Silver?
I went with the black.
Same! Just ordered mine today. How do you like yours
Ironic, absolutely love them. Very comfortable and sound is exceptional.
bkbrown5881 in a good way?
Amazing review!
Thanks for the great review. Most comprehensive I’ve found so far!
I'm watching this video with my WH-1000XM3 😀 just the best! great review, thanks
I like your review more than Jims Review Room or anyone else because its in simple words and straightforward, am getting know what i like to know
Really hoping Bose answers soon, or I'll have to jump ship to Sony!
Sony has always been my boys and ladies.
@@benen7944 since how many years ago, for headphones?
I have never had any other headphones than Sony, the first headphones I ever had were Sony’s and I have just loved them ever since than never looking to switch
Man look for the quality and what fit u, brand loyalty is BS.
@@mochaccinoz I figured. Crazy prices of low to mid quality headphone is increasing, yet sound quality stays the same
can't afford .still watching anyway
I recently bought some on ebay with a broken headband for $50. Fixed with a bit of tape. I think now is the time to buy old ones of these. Lots of replaceable parts available like batteries etc too. Very happy, can't believe how well they work driving in my noisy van
I bought mine last weekend for 199 euros! So happy I did, they are amazing 😁
These are probably the best bang for your buck headphones on the market today
Damn nice review! Was thinking to buy Bose QC 35 II, but I don't know about that now!
Nice review, spoken well and not rushed, as so many presenters do. Thank you. I will be trying them out.
I bought these 3 weeks back.....all of what you said is 100 % on the ball.......
Nice review! How would you draw comparisons to the PXC550 in sound signature and ANC?
I can't seem to find any plausible or even cursory explanation as to why Sony opted for BT 4.2 as opposed to 5.0. The review is solid and answers most of the queries anyone could have. Indeed, I ordered a pair and then went on a fact find to vindicate the purchase. To that end, flossy carter, Jim's review room and trusted reviews have done the heavy lifting and i feel confident in my purchase. It's just strange that Sony would leave this feature out and even stranger that no one (but Jim) seems to care, or even noticed. Very strange indeed.
i just got these for around $200!!! its a stealll
AK8WH1000XM4 just passed the FCC. XM4s will be introduced soon
Bought a pair of Bose QC25 couple of years ago. In this very moment, I'm putting in a new speaker element in the right ear in the QC25 as they stopped working. This Sony headset will be my next.
Most comprehensive review out there!!! 👊👊👊
Do the plastic headbands still crack like the first two generations, which sony refused to replace.
I really wish they would make a metal and leather version even at an extra $50-$100.
Amazing and informative review, many thanks.
Amazing video, great shots and very informative.
One of the best ANC headphones in Indian market. These are the kings here and i own it and can justify this review is all correct.
My kygos broke and I got these as replacement :). I already love them except you can't pair two devices at the same time for multimedia use. You can pair your Android phone for phone calls and your laptop for multimedia use, but it's not the same. Still I'm still quite happy to choose these.
Excited to try these as I previously had the Sony MDRZX770BN. I can assume that this will be a great upgrade. Chose white just to switch it up.
I watched so many reviews and I think you're the only that mentioned the ambient noise works with the phone! So useful because I thought it was the headphones which means this only works when I'm paired to the phone and that it's on me. Or if using my laptop to listen to music but the phone is in my pocket it'll still work?
Very professional review 👍🏽
BEWARE. I bought this Dec 2019 for USD $278 here in Philippines. There was an issue moderate crackling/static/hissing noise in the right ear cup when ANC is turned On. Search it in google, many people are experiencing it. I was hyped and did not do enough research before buying this. This was my first ANC headphones. Not 100% happy because of the "moderate crackling/static/hissing noise" issue.
So detailed. And I feel like I can trust you
Boy your review are stupendously outstanding keep it up love it
Been using them for over a month and love them. Only complain is your ears get sweaty easily in warm environments, but I guess it's to improve isolation. Also, maybe it's me but I feel all the weight pressing in a small area of the padded headband interior and they fall sometimes when you lay (regardless of how tight I adjust them). Besides that and the kinda mellow highs... Yeah I enjoy them a lot.
I'm listening to this with sony wh1000x m3 and they sound incredible with CoD ww2 as well!!
Solid, honest review. Ordering now :)
great review! The 1000XM3 may be the best at the moment, it'll be interesting to see what Bose will come up with next.
700s with a price tag of 600
Great review. I think these just got shorter on my short list for new headphones.
I’m happy with original JVC headphones came with retro cassette box.
I certainly love the Bose QuiteComfort. It is great wherever I travel. I have noticed after a recent update to the software on the bud that it seems to let in more noise than before. I don't know if that it is true or not but on a recent flight while the engine noise was drowned out (and most baby noises), I could specifically hear some annoying women talking quite clearly. Maybe it was their high pitched voices I'm not sure but I don't remember that happening before. I might right these Sony out to hear the difference.
So is it worth the price? Cause $350 is a lot
I am a mdr1000x user...completely satisfied.. it is totally worth the money
I just tried them out at best buy. Sound quality is amazing. Bass is awesome. The comfort. Holy mother. The comfort is the most amazing feature. Seriously. They are so freaking comfortable. In buying them tomorrow. So worth buying.
@@jamesrocks19 Best Buy has these in stock? Website says not available yet
@@KenSheppa they are not in stock at best buy. But I believe Amazon has them.
James Luna they’re at some Best Buy locations already.
Enjoyed your review, thanks.
Great review. Keep those coming.
One thing that bugged me for a while. Why don't those headphones have some built-in memory so they embark their own playlist and your don't need either cables or bluetooth fiddling? Or why doesn't the USB accept a (nano-size) flashdrive. OK, that would need a User Interface for navigation, which is probably the reason. But I'd love to take a flat, simple playlist for the day... no cable, no BT! Let Sony know, please!
Bose QC35 is still better. The comfort is second to none and it can connect to 2 devices. I got both but i prefer Bose QC35
I had to send my WH-1000XM3 back and will now wait for the QC III. The earcups did not fit me well. After 3-4 hours my ears turn red and begin to hurt. The cups are not deep enough for my ear since the gristly in the middle touches the hard part of the speaker under the cloth. Sad but true :-/
I ditched my Dre Beats,not that they even compared to anything,but very happy with my silver xm3's
You guys need to take a serious look at the nuraphones as the best NC Bluetooth over ear headphones after the gen2 update.
The update added NOISE CANCELLING, more button functionality, an environmental awareness mode and the sound quality blows Sony's xm3's out of the water.
Late to party, but ordered right after your review. It's your review convinced me above all others
wish you didin't. new version is on its way.
@@no.way.out_ 9 months later.. new version still not dropped
Nice review...are they loud ?as I am an electronic music fan ..thanks
I love your review. Excellent work.
Sold! Ordering one now.
Has there ever been a more 'slam dunk' product for its category?
Ced is super attractive and the British accent... Wow. Anyhow. I bought the AKG N60 non wireless for $79 on black Friday. They do well with NC but I'm wondering if I should just return them and Get the MX3. Are they worth the extra $280?
Bose is already going to release they're next generation headphones. Those will probably topple the 1000xm3's reign.
how is the sound leakage on the xm3?
Can these be used wireless without noise cancel (at home use) and also can they be used wired (jack/usb)?
Great review by the way
Brilliant review well done
I really like these, but am I wrong or can you not use both Google Assistant and ambient control at the same time? It seems it is either or, which I think is annoying. Either you can access the Google Assistant or you can toggle the noise cancellation stuff...
the Sony store in my country was selling these for a little more than 215 bucks so I bought them(It was a limited offer since their normal price is 410 bucks), I don't know if I should keep them or resell them for a little quick profit.
Perfect review 🤗
Interesting.How long could you wear this set of headphones without taking them off.Could I watch a movie with it for example, without taking them off in between?
Yes
In terms of sound quality is this better than nuraphones
Anyone know if the WH-1000XM3 is capable of Digital Audio through the USB-C port aside from charging? ( besides waiting for a firmware update) The pins are all there. My Z5 Premium doesn't have an on board digital DAC
No it isn't. The USB-C port is used for nothing other than fast charging.
All phones have a built in DAC.
If these were less expensive, I would definitely buy them. £330, though? No thank you
They are amazing!!! 😀
How about your own voice while wearing ? The Bose QuietComfort 35 II hear your voice and plays it for you so you dont have that dull-feeling . Does this it too ?
Sony has a great ANC product. They still have a huge problem with the headband. After regular use you will find it makes a creaking, popping noise. ANC is diminished with this problem. Sony's response to me is the headband is "irreplaceable."
Can’t wait for wh1000xm5 with Bluetooth 5.0
Really good review.
this will be my next headphones!
Bought a new one last week. The foam pad heats up after few hours and on noise cancelling mode the headphone switches off frequently. Was using on a 16 hour trip from US and I got up Several time as the noise cancelling switched off. Never happened with bose or the zic parrot I had.
I have had the mdr 1000x for almost a year now. You think it's worth upgrading or wait for the m4?
What's the current situation regarding the build quality and the Hinge problems?. Anyone had these for a few months willing to give us heads up on how the build quality is holding up.
Cheers
Duppex would like to know that too.
Can i use these headsets for Netflix,gaming and listen to CZcams videos? Or are they just for walking around with?
potatoncarrots 🤦🏽♂️
What about calls? Does it mask ambient noise as well while you take a call?
I bought the New Bose noise cancelling headphones and I was disappointed in these.. The treble cracks at high volume and they didn't have the bass drop that I like so I will be returning them today and I will try the Sony and the beats studio 3s out also!!
has anyone noticed that the max volume on the wh1000xm3 is lower when on bluetooth and higher when using the cable? is this normal? or did I get a faulty unit?
Is there any possibility to mute the mic during a conf call?
What about the beyerdynamic noise canceling headphones?
Can you please comment on comfort, if i wear for longer hours i.e. 8 hours would my ear sweat or hot? Is it comfortable to wear them for longer hours? As lot of people are reviewers are sayin. Please advise
can noise cancelling be turned off permanently? with the xm2's noise cancelling had to be turned off manually every time you turn on the headphones. is this still a thing with the xm3's?
In term of sound quality, which wired headphone it can be compared to?
I’m super close to buying these myself but I have a question. I understand you can only have one device connected at a time, but are you able to save different devices? If I wanted to switch from my iPhone to MacBook, how annoying would that be?
I know this comment is a little bit late, but i just want to commend you for using the word "bronze" instead of "rose gold" just like the other reviewers. 😂
Btw i already have that headphone and I'm so impress about the performance.. Totally worth it!
Can we use the usb type c cable.to directly plug into oneplus 6 or pixel 3 without bluetooth ?
good job great review
