The best headphones for your home
On Friday 4th September 2020 I bought this is for when I move into my own unit in September 2020 so I will be able to listen to my favourite music before I go to bed every night without disturbing the neighbours by using these headphones.

Sony does it again
Sooooo comfy! The sound quality of these headphones is the best I could have hoped for, if not better. The noise cancelling is amazing, the best I have ever used. Because of the 30 hour battery life these headphones have, they are very good for city travel ie train or bus, can be used for Bluetooth or as active headphones since they come with an aux cord. Probably best not to use them for any outdoor activities since they could fall off your head (this has happened to me, luckily I caught them). Overall these headphones are fantastic for the money they cost nowadays, but with the new WH1000XM4 coming out, you may want to save up to get those since they are the better version of these headphones.

Fantastic product
I use these when travelling and actually find them useful in the recording studio as passive monitors. They have a rounded sound and are comfortable to wear, although I would not recommend them for use when running. The sound quality when used with iPhone or iPad via Bluetooth is detailed and pleasing. When used with a DAC such as a Soundkey or a Dragonfly, the sound becomes expansive and engaging. Altogether, they are absolutely worth the money.

Exceptional! Best noise cancelling to date. The sound is crisp with enough base. The app is just brilliant and easy to navigate. Google assistant is great and voice assistant is clear.

My walking pal
In order to ramp up my walking, I used headphones in listening to self-help training materials. Easy to use convenient volume and forward/backward adjustments. Light, elegant and handy! Perfect sound!

Sony WH1000XM3B (Black) vs Bose QuietComfort 35
Previously using the Bose QuietComfort 35 (now with my teenage daughter) and the ANC is comparable to the QC35 (the QC 35 is slightly better with no ambient sound playing). Features are great and I bought 2 (one for me and one for the wifey). Very comfortable around the ears and build is solid. Overall, happy with the purchase.

Better the Bose
Have had several pairs of the Bose qc35’s. also awesome. However the soundstage of the Sony’s feels more immersive and the noise cancelling even better. There is also some clever buttonless tech with the Sony’s. I’m surprised ... and delighted. You can’t go wrong with the qc35sbut if you want to hear/see what (slightly) better is like .... try these

Fantastic noise cancelling headphone.
I listen to music and audiobooks with this headphone. Due to the size of this headphone, it is not quite suitable for intense activities. But it has the best noise-cancelling function. Good sound volume. I love the blue tooth function.

Best Noise Cancelling Headphones I have ever had! Good for glasses too!
I have had a number of other noise-canceling headphones in the past, this Sony Wh-1000XM3 is by far the best!!! The noise-canceling really blocks out all the noise in my environment, it has a number of functionality responses by hand gestures, very handy!
The headphones are designed very well for users with glasses (especially the cushion), despite a few hours of work with headphones, I had no issues with discomfort on my ears, side of face nor nose where my glasses sit. This is very impressive!!!
As this is wireless, I also have the flexibilit...Read more

Lives up to the hype
Very comfortable to wear for long periods, the battery life is astounding. Easy to flick between NC/Ambient and off, and the active noise cancelling is great. I'm no audiophile and can't fault the sound quality. Recommended

Amazing sound
These headphones are absolutely amazing, they have noise control and with the Sony headphones app you can adjust the bass et. I love how comfortably they fit. My partner has beats but they really are no way near as good as these Sony in my opinion.

Peace and quiet at home
WIth the current distance learning situation, I needed something to allow me to continue with online studies at home with my kids. I didn't want to experiment with others so I chose these top-of-the- range ones. They are perfect in every way, and well-worth the cost.

Great headphones
I googled reviews on these headphones for months before buying them. I was going to buy the new Airpods pro but decided to buy cans instead and I’m so glad I did. They are so comfortable to wear, have a great sound with an equaliser app that you can customise. The noise cancelling is superior and teamed up with Tidal music and Boom sounds brilliant! Apple Music does not sound anywhere near as good / clear sounding as Tidal, which is a shame as Apple Music is actually easier to use and it took me quite some time to switch over to Tidal. After pu...Read more
rchasing I decided to buy the Apple AirPods Pro also, noise cancelling is ok but they do not come anywhere near the quality of these Sony headphones so I’m really glad I did buy these. Battery life of the Sony is excellent, lasting me a very long time between charges. The only gripe I have is that they don’t pair over multiple devices, you have to disconnect from one device before picking up another to use them on. I’m in my 50s, I don’t profess to be an audiophile but I do appreciate clear sounding music and with these Sony WH... you get great sounding music for a reasonable price. I also have an incessant cicada outside my bedroom window...noisy bloody thing but I can’t hear a thing when I put these babies on, even if I’m not playing any sounds through them, they cut out all background noise, can’t even here our noisy ceiling fans. Love them!Purchased in February 2020 at Coles Group & Myer Gift Card.

Great sound and bass
Love this headphones , after tossing up between Bose and these I finanly bit the bullet and choose the Sony .
They have a rich bass and great mids
These arent high end headphones but they are perfect for everyday listening
Noise cancelling can be a bit uncomfortable as they are quite firm on the head

Great sound quality, good connection distance, great build quality and great noise cancelling (barely able to hear a plane taking off). No regrets of purchase at all, if you're in the market for Bluetooth headphones, definitely recommend these

Great noise cancelling
The best!
I bought these before some overseas travel recently and they work perfectly on a plane.
They sound great and are very comfortable to wear.
It does sometimes get annoying when pairing between multiple devices, but I can live with it.

12 months on...5 days a week public transport...Great headphones
I done a lot of research into My first pair of noise cancelling headphones ..was going to buy the bose but at the last moment bought the Sony's... I'm so so happy with them..as people have said your ears do get hot wearing them as they fit so close but the advantage is you don't hear back ground noise.. I ride the Sydney trains to work every day and it's like your at home listening to music...One key thing I would say is...don't use the preset equalizer.. go online and see what other people recommend....it makes a huge difference .
I'm hearing things in songs I have been listening to for over 40 years I have NEVER heard before with these headphones ... Yes really..

After owning them for 2 days, I tried mine for the first time on a plane. I am getting static as the plane takes off, very annoying. Landing is OK. Should I take them back or is this normal? Thanks everyone, Mary.
