As we found the headphone slipped forward a little when working out
Very comfortable and sleek design, Excellent audio quality when powered, Industry-leading active noise cancellation, Easy to use app and gesture controls, Solid battery life and quick-charge capability
Audio quality is only average when the headphones are not powered, Minor learning curve required to master gesture controls, Very slight high-frequency distortion when the volume is cranked

Great noise canceling, Highquality sound, Long battery life, Voice assistant support
Expensive, Headband can cause discomfort, Earcups are a bit shallow
All said and done, there's one question that's left to answer. Are the Sony WH-1000XM3 headphones worth the price of $350? And the answer is: it depends. Shocking, we know. If you have the lifestyle that will make the most out of the noise canceling, you...

Great sound quality, great noise cancellation,
Expensive, touch sensitive controls can take a little getting used to

Excellent sound quality and comfort, Noise canceling is best in class, Generous battery life
A premium price Google Assistant isn't very useful, Touch controls are still finicky
Sony's WH-1000XM3 aren't just a great pair of noise canceling headphones, they're quality cans period. While you used to have to choose between great sound quality and decent noise reduction, the 1000XM3 do both while being a blast to listen to.While the...

Noise cancelation is incredibly good, Comfort levels allow for hours of use, Huge battery life and fast USB-C charging, Sony has fixed most Mark 2 frustrations
Status LED is frustrating, Multipoint Bluetooth could be more elegant, No on-ear sensor
Extraordinary noise canceling, Pillowy comfort, USB-C charging and stupendous battery life, Best sound from Sony's 1000X yet
Touch controls are still a pain, Bass response could be cleaner and more defined, Pads get sweaty on warm days, Irritating blinking LED status light on left ear cup

Finish can get a little grubby, Only connects to one device at a time
If there's one way to beat the competition, it's on quality, but Sony goes above and beyond with the WH-1000XM3, as these things are just so damned good. The Sony WH-1000XM3 has it all, and while last year's XM2 were fantastic, these are even better.We're...
