This'll be the last video I do on these headphones (at least until the XM4's come out and I do a comparison), so if you have any further questions, drop em' in a comment below and I'll do my best to answer them! Happy holidays!
When will the xm4's come out?
Bose QC35 or Sony 1000XM3

Sony, because even though, they have more bass (which not everyone likes) the sound is comparable and if you'd give up a bit of comfortability you won't be disappointed. The ANC is incredibly good and the app is a lot better as well. For me, the tactical buttons on Bose are worse because you hear and feel the pressing. The battery life is a bit better on Sonys as well. Not that I wouldn't recomend Bose qc 35 ii, they are awesome, but Sony pulled ahead with subtle differences.
Mark Spurrell if you swipe up/down for volume and hold, it will not need multiple swipes to change volume.
Have you tried it with a DAC (like Audioquest Dragonfly Cobalt). And does it make it sound better/different?
Thanks.

When he said that he has 19K subs, I couldn't believe it. The video and review quality is amazing!
ik like i didnt even look at his subs and it looked like a 1M subbed channel already
Raafat i just subscribed
Im surprised at how much was gained in 5 months. He's at 39k. What a jump.
Look at him now, just a few months later.
Yea. Quality is on par with the best reviewers out there.
Turn on ANC and play music 50% vol. It will block 99% sound
Agree
Heck..Depending on song. You may not even need that much. even 40 percent is enough to block out a good chunk of everything.
Yep,even nothing playing too, depends on where you're at and the environment
I love how they sound,very crisp and good,even how long they last,I like that is has 15 minute charge=5 HOURS of play time
tbh any pair of on-/over- or in-ear headphones will block most of the sound at a certain volume of music being played.
I'll wait for the 20 year final verdict
It’s been 2 years and I’m finally gonna buy these, only $150 on EBay

I have the headphones and never had the issue of the cold weather, even in -10°C. It even keeps your ears warm
Not all the time like it doesn't keep mine warm all the way but warm enough though
Same
It has issues in minus 20 and below for me
I didn't have the problem, even if the headphones were on before leaving
Are your ears gonna sweat in warm weather?
This is honestly one of the best Sony m3 reviews. You talk about things noone talks about like how the ANC technology is best suited for blocking loud engine noises as oppose to human voices, or how you still need to turn the power on if you want ANC when the headphones are connected through the 3.5 jack. 👍
As someone who owns these I thought these were very accurate things to mention
That's true for all noise cancelling headphones though.
Jim’s Review Room?!
The XM4 should have an ANC switch so you can use it when wired like soundsurge 46
Yes, the noise cancelling doesn`t work without power, the type of thing only a mac user needs explained..
And although it`s uncommon to mention it in reviews and the inclusion is nice, there are reasons for that, such as basic knowledge about the technology.
It`s the reason you can often choose between presets like, airplane, train, bus, office et cetera.
You can`t do them all at once because of the physical way noise cancelling works, well maybe you could, but you wouldn`t be able to block all audible frequencies, while playing audible frequencies, if they manage to do that I want to met the people who program the syncronization lol xD
Never mind, what am I even saying, people won`t learn about noise cancelling, the leader of the free world doesn`t understand how hairspray works..
I've had these since Feb 2019. They are amazing, they nailed everything...except microphone quality during calls, I constantly have people say that I sound far away during phone calls while using the XM3's. Its so bad that I have stopped using them for phone calls altogether. I understand the mics were improved in the XM4's, however, I can't justify the upgrade. Can't have it all I guess

I bought them last year. And used them on an 11 hour flight to capetown was very happy with the noise cancellng.Noise cancelling in general on long flights is a must have in my opinion. It filters the constant noise. I use them now when playing single play on the ps4.
Hey! Thinking about picking these up since there's a shop near me selling a demo unit at half price. Are yours still holding up today?
Well, you gained my respect and have a new subscriber. I loved the fact that this review is after using it for the whole year and I really appreciate the honesty
Thanks for the honest and very detailed review! You have mentioned a lot of stuff that most reviewers don’t even think about, and the fact that you’ve used them over a year, also assures their long term reliance, so thanks for that!
Btw, the XM4 has been spotted on the FCC listings a while ago, so chances are they will be announced in January at CES!
great video! it was thorough and you hit a lot of good faq’s, i liked it
I've had the same headphones since last christmas and I agree with every sentiment you talked about, very on point. Don't regret these headphones at all! The cold issue affects me a lot being in Canada, but this switch is a welcome addition.
I'm also Canadian! But I don't go outside with them much.
The cold issue doesn’t happen for me and where I live it can get really cold
@@potatothing3240 that's weird. I did notice that it has gotten better the last while, but it still happens for me even when I'm walking for 10-15 minutes outside in -10C weather.
If you turn them on outside the headphones would calibrate to the temperature. I rarely have any problems with the touch pad but when I do its because I turned them on inside in the warmth and went outside into the cold and when that happens I turn them off then on again to recalibrate
Canada too, though Toronto so don't see insane temperatures. I really like the Sony's but I've been thinking of buying the QC35 instead since they don't have the cold weather issue. I just feel like if I'm spending the $400, it should just work.
so im new to ANC technology and had never tried it before. went in to a local store and tried these out. i was blown away. then i tried some others which were also decent but not as nice as this Sony. now I see why. I guess i chose wisely since reducing urban-living noise was my #1 priority. this is the most informative video i've seen about this model and you clearly know your stuff. thank you!
Had these over a year now. Still love them and the ANC is fantastic. Even in an office environment I would say 90% of the noise is cancelled out. Movies and music sound awesome
This review was really spot on and answered questions that I did not get from elsewhere. For one, I thought they would make it possible to listen to music while someone else is watching TV in the same room. Now I know that they are not designed for that. The guy in the shop told me otherwise.
Excellent review. I love the details you went into, like how cable+anc works and the type of noise anc will block. Great stuff

Such an amazing detailed review. Thank you. You talk about stuff others just skip over like how comfortable they are with glasses how the pleather behaves and how you can turn them on for ANC but choose not to use the bluetooth.
Subbed.
You are very underrated, great videos!
Keep up the great work! Great insights in a presentation that is easy to relate to and connect with.
I bought these back in January, so I'm very close to owning them for a year too. I'm no audiophile either though I would actually say they sound AMAZING. like sometimes I start to crave the sound quality of these when I don't have them on. They do get sort of uncomfortable after some time though but I have to admit I really only start to feel that after about 5 to 7 hours of wearing them. All in all, I can totally agree that I think every penny I spend on them was worth it!
Just a heads up from a Longtime Sony headphone user. I anticipate the 'pleather' ear cups will disintegrate over time - as with ALL Sony headphones - including their pro studio line. I would plan on replacing them with velour style ear cup covers. They are pretty cheap and I would suggest investing in a pair when you buy them rather than being surprised at some point down the road.
Thank you for the review!
I love it how you did after a year that's perfect
I freakin love these headphones. ANC is so good you have to take care of your surrounding if you walk down the street, the battery lasts way too long, the sound is amazing and they are comfy
Is the bass strong?
@@albertdadoun.937 You can adjust it to be stronger in the equalizer. But it is not bassy like dr beats are.

Hey another Schechter!
Guys.. I have had Sony XM3 for a year and 2 months now. And I agree with every little detail on this review. He is absolutely spot on. I also have bose qc35 and that's my daily driver because it connects my computer and phone, and also has a great microphone to take calls. But the ANC and Sound quality on Bose QC35 does not match that of Sony. I personally feel Sony is more immersive. But still I use Bose at work.
I've been using the wh1000xm3 for 10 months now. I'm satisfied with it, worth buying ♥️ long battery life, sounds great

how is the call quality for you?
@@kavinsp I have heard the call quality is meh. If you want something for calling others then I would get the Bose 700's.
Is the bass strong?
@@albertdadoun.937 Is well balanced with a bit stronger bass but not something that distracts from the listening pleasure.
Just got these headphones, huge improvement from my Sony Bass Headphones (Miles’ headphones), the high frequencies are fairly crisp, bass is punchy and enjoyable, mids are decently accurate, the ANC is impressive and in settings with mid to low hums like on planes, these thing are GREAT, doesn’t work well with high frequencies ofc. First pair of headphones that made me dance because they sound so good
How well is the anc when u r not playing anything?
Yousif Emad it’s still good, earplugs and open back headphones together is probably a fair comparison, you can hear people talking but barely. It reduces low and mid hums by at least 75%, very noticeable
Yousif Emad in addition, the battery life is excellent, I usually use them for 3-5 hours a day with ANC always on, and I usually only charge them like once or twice a week and charges only take like an hour and a half or two
@@rose_d_mary ohh so it doesn't completely block all the noises when ur not playing anything, but let's say u wear earbuds and the headphones at the same time like the nuarophone headphones, would that block everything? Thank you so much
Is it comfy?
I've just purchased a pair of these. Looking forward to using them. Your video was helpful. Thank you.
Are they good lol? I'm tempted to get some
I got these headphones recently! Thank you so much for your review, it was very helpful☺️
Is the bass strong?
Thank you so much for including the bit about the app now allowing you to turn off the touch controls. I've been between these and the Bose QC35ii for literally months because while I preferred the Sonys in almost every way, the touch controls were seriously putting me off. I like the buttons on the QCs and I firmly do not like the idea of accidentally brushing up against the headphone and skipping forward, etc.
After researching and asking around online, the verdict was that there's no way to disable it without disassembling the headphones. Your video (to my knowledge) is the only review that mentions that newly updated feature and the reason I'll be buying them over the QCs. I know it's a small detail but seriously I can't thank you enough for including it in your review. I don't see a Patreon link but if you open one in the future I'll be sure to chip in.

Bought them 6 months ago....still feels kinda new !
Is the bass strong?
Albert Dadoun. Yes. If you care mostly for bass get the Skullcandy Crusher ANC. But all around, these headphones are superior in every single way except for the really really intense physical bass delivered by the crushers.
What I miss in every review - talking about the high-res capabilities.
I nearly cried when I first used them with my Sony NW-A45 player and played the high res example songs. The vocals were so damn clear!!!
Hi res through bluetooth?
Lol
@@HeliBenj you can use ldac which provides hi res audio, like 98Khz 24 bit. Although iPhones do not have ldac, some androids do.
@@sinanparmar no it doesn't. Still around 600 kbps in real life. It downsamples hi res to stream through Bluetooth and then upsamples it, but there is no way at all a 24b 96khz file streams through Bluetooth. This is a ~ 4000 kbps file, so unfortunately not happening today.
Not saying LDAC sounds bad, just saying if you believe you're really getting hi res through it you are fooling yourself
@@HeliBenj ok so i did some reading. It seems like with a 990 kbps connection you can actually get losless 48kHz 24 bit file which counts as Hi-Res, but definitely not 96kHz. I was fooled by the fact that my phone says it is transmitting 96kHz 32 bit with ldac in my settings. But it did not say it wasn't compressed, which I thought it would be. Now I wonder what difference that makes. Thanks for pointing out man, I should have thought of this earlier as it is basic maths.
@@sinanparmar if you have an android phone, enable developper options, there you can set LDAC codes to fixed bitrates (automatic by default) set it to 990 kbps and try it in a real life sce. You will likely get a lot of cutouts. Truth is the system automatically adjust bitrate depending on connection conditions, and for me 990 is not feasible. So you get really 660 at best or 330.
In reality the only way to get even real lossless CD quality (44 kHz 16 bits) is wired.
Of course, marketing from codec developers would like you to think otherwise.
Now the difference in sound quality between LDAC and real lossless is very little to my ears to be honest, and difference between lossless and his res is also not big. You need somewhat hi end headphones and headphone dac and amp to really appreciate. SONY XM3 OR bose whatever are not resolving enough to get that last 1% of difference.
But saying you get hi res through Bluetooth is just wrong. If interested, try a set of really hi-fi grade headphones through even a basic DAC in a shop (i use focal Elegia and fiio Q1) with hi res files.
Not very portable, but another level of sound altogether. Careful though, once heard it cannot be unheard, and this is a costy hobby...
I've had to sell my Marshall "Monitor " and XM3 because I can no longer listen to them.
All depends on your priorities, convenience or sound quality.
Not that the XM3 sound inherently bad, just colored, not very resolving and with small soundstage. But they sound decent for their price and of course have the convenience of Bluetooth and ANC
Love your video quality!!
just watched the 6 month review and wondering what you think after 1 year and you just upload this 3 days ago . waw

Is the bass strong?
A lovely succinct review. I recently purchased these headphones because I've been living in a flat right on the side of the northern line here in London. The trains run right past the window at the rate of one every minute for twenty hours a day. Although I ve been using wax earplugs to sleep I spent most of my life outside because the flat was unbearable. Upon finally trying these noise cancelling headphones-and providing at least the window I sit by is closed, I found out they make all the difference in the world.
Now as luck would have it, I have finally been able to locate another flat and I sign up for it today. I was previously unable to move for all sorts of reasons but oh the irony of only discovering these little beauties in my final month here. Damn!! Anyway they are great headphones and deffinately keepers-they'll be coming with me for their sound quality(still very decent when connected by a wire and switched off by the way) and Still they'll be useful in the less dramatic environment I'm heading to (by a road so there's traffic in the street-they'll quieten that down with ease) and anywhere where that reassuring female voice that tells you "headphones on.... Bluetooth connected...." along with that beep as the ambient sound falls away-is a most welcome tool to have in your armoury in this noisy world. 👌💖
Glad they could help you out for at least a brief time!
Had the headphones since October 2018, live in London, commute on the tube daily and a huge electronic music fan, so they're in constant use.
I can honestly say these are not only the best headphones I've ever bought, but possibly the best £300 I've EVER spent.
If you're looking for noise cancellation, comfort and great sound quality I feel they're completely unbeatable.
Do you think it's still worth buying it in 2022?
Great review...thorough and informative...listening on my xm3..and agree with you 💯
Good review. I've had mine for a year as well and only thing that's gone wrong is one day after using them in a light rain, the bluetooth and touch pad went out. I re-seated the power ribbon cable inside the right earcup and all is well now. I think a little moisture got in the USB-C connector. I use these EVERY SINGLE DAY from hard workouts to just lounging. Absolute hands down BEST headphones I will ever own. In fact i doubt they will ever die as I have already opened them up and the electronic design is marvelous.
I will disagree with you though on the swiping motions being unnatural and hard to do. The touchpad works flawless for me and I can't tell you how much of a joy it's been to just lightly swipe by my ear to control music when on a bike ride, jogging, lawn work, etc. No more fumbling for the music device or risk eventually wearing out physical buttons. The ONLY time the touchpad reacts poorly is if my finger is wet as in soaked and that is totally understandable.
Your videos are so satisfying to watch, clean n quality content. Keep the good work going.
Thank you!
I've been thinking of getting one of these, tnx your vid has helped me

Best review on the internet. You even mentioned how comfortable they are with glasses (very important part many people skip on). I planned to buy it but then I noticed news about XM4. So I'm gonna wait.
Just copped a pair of these headphones. The ANC is amazing. Sound quality is top notch. Great app , everlasting battery life + super comfortable. The only gripe I have with them is the build quality isn't quite up to par. After a week , my left ear cup randomly creaks when walking / moving or chewing and due to the ANC being soooo good , you hear the clicks + creaks over the music. So you have to turn the volume to cover up those random noises which reverberate through the headband into your ears. I rang sony support and they said it is normal that the head band / ear cup hinges can creak slightly. So , just a word of warning. Great headphones none the less. 9/10.
Don't regret these headphones at all. Great headphone really!
Hey, are these headphones worth it in 2020?
pVoqz yea. bose 700 just came out and they’re pretty equal. just lack multi-connect and a good mic. if those aren’t too important to u, then yes these are still one of the best

Thanks so much for this this great review. Actually been looking for ANC headphones while studying. Fam makes lots of noise. Problem in the past I had with headphones was that when wearing headphones with glasses on, it would start to hurt me after a while. Thanks for addressing the comfort issue for those that wear glasses. Do you think that wearing glasses perhaps affects the ANC of the headphones though?
Best review ever 👍 keep going 💙
Watching with these :P
I watched this prior to buying, this review being one of the reasons to why I made my mind up.
However, the head band strap broke after a few months and Sony refuse to accept it as a guarantee issue. The charge above 100€ to fix it. But that would just give me another pair with the weak plastic strap.
All of this from ordinary use, a tiny bit of plastic just shot off one day when removing them from my head.
When you show the endurance and squeeking of the strap, that kind of pressure is probably at least 4 times the actual pressure I placed on line while simply placing them or removing on my head..
Sad to say, but wish I didn't buy them. The poor quality of the plastic is insane for a premium product.
Love everything else with them apart from built in microphone while taking calls.. My friends hate me for the poor quality. Weird that they haven't been able to solve it..
Honestly, love your gun dam collections at the background 😎
Just bought them yesterday truly amazing I am loving them.
Is it good to listen to hip hop

best equalizer setting for me:

1k = +4
2,5k = +6
6,3k = +5
16k = +5
Clear Bass = -3
Alessandro Smuczek Hey, thanks for this. It sounds a bit too tiny , yeah ? May I please know if you have any settings for punchy sound but balanced ? I’m struggling quite a bit to find a balanced but slightly punchy sound. Would appreciate your help. 🙂
@@sodapop1205 This is the EQ I'm using. Hopefully it's punchy and balanced for you.
400 = -2
1k = 0
2,5k = +2
6,3k = +0
16k = +2
Clear Bass = 0
I seriously don't recommend using the equalizer, it ruins the sound quality because it doesn't use high quality bluetooth codecs with the equalizer turned on.
If you have it on for some reason tho I really don't get why you would turn the bass down at all and turning the mids up is literally the opposite of what i wanna do with the sound. Also turning the high frequencies up that much is a terrible idea too.
I don't know if you have trouble hearing high frequencies because of your age (judging by your profile pic) but your setting literally RUINS the sound for me.
@@AmadeusBrown The setting depends the style of music you like, in my case I like jazz and this setting is fine for me, but this is very personal.
I listen to a lot of electronic music and enjoy the bass, my settings
400 = +2
1K = +3
2.5K = +4
6.3K = +3
16K = +2
Clearbass = +4
hey mark! :) i absolutely loved the way you reviewed this!
Thanks CZcams for recommending this guy. Subscribed!
i bought mine last february 2019 🎧🤟🏻
only donwside is sony is not allowed this heaphone to connect to ps4 thru bluetooth so i buy separate ps4 dongle im not satisfied common sony this headphone is a bit expensive and cannot connect directly to ps4 hopefully in ps5 it will directly connect thru BT👌
just use the aux cord
With the dongle could you speak in party? I currently use them with the aux and it is great for sound, but is a bit of a pain to switch to my logitech's when i want to talk to friends
@@mathewpont1728 no you cant, you can only use audio, unless you buy one of those bluetooth adapters for the ps4 controller
Inaccurate review!
Their sound quality is very good with efficient sound stage and decent bass, they are absolutely *not flat* !
Their build quality is so good. Furthermore, their touch pad away from that cold weather issue, are good and easy to get used to.
I got a set for xmas and one thing I was worried about was creasing / damaging the ear pads from wearing glasses. After a few sittings I have already noticed a crease in the fabric from where my glasses sit, however looking at yours after a year it seems like they have held up really well. You can see the crease from you glasses but no damage or excessive wear which is relief!
Liked the update. I agree I’ve had them for about six months now. And I’m very happy with them. Brilliant with a capital B. You won’t regret buying this ear phones. 👍😎
Had the new updates affected the headphones in any way? I've been hearing a lot about it
