The Bose QC35 and now QC35 II are widely regarded as the benchmark for wireless noise cancelling headphones. The new Sony WH1000XM3 headphones are looking to change that. So the question is... Has Sony done enough to dethrone Bose? Which is the best pair of wireless noise cancelling headphones for 2018, 2019 and beyond?

I just got the Sonys, and let me just say, It feels weird to be walking around and not able to hear your own footsteps. 10/10
3 days later, have they fixed the headband crack problem?
Seriously. I turn on the ambient sound thing when I'm out at night just to be safe.
If you seen the coments and customer images for sony youd see that some of the customers sony headphones broke
@@typohelix5521 that "some" doesn't really help your argument.
I just got the Sony’s and I think they’re 10/10 too

The ironic downside to buying quality noise cancelling headphones

Why are you on every single video I watch?
when your wearing the bose while watching this video hoping you didnt get ripped off
why? are bose really that bad?
@@randomtakka2032 I used the QC15's for years and just got the Sonys. Bose makes really good headphones overall and the sound quality is excellent, but the Sonys are a lot more customizable and seem to have more bass. I've been comparing my old QC15s to the MK3s and tbh the sound quality isn't that much better in the Sonys, but the NC is much better, and obviously the sonys are new and have bluetooth, my new phone doesn't have a headphone jack :(
Though if you want good wired headphones you can find used QC15's for cheap, especially the ones with the bad foams, you can buy the foam for $3 and have a super nice headset for under $40. Downside of that its you need batteries and the NC needs to be on for the headphones to work.
The new Bose 700 are good but you need to use the app and the app is garbage. It's like having a ferrari that you can only put E85 into.
your not ripped off. i had xm3 and i returned them and ogt qc35ii. reason. bad functions on some parts of sony like: 1- microphones for call talks are real shit. 2- when it gets a bit cold headphone starts changing music and volum up and down.3- you can stop youtube but cant resume it and you have to do it over youtube app. 4- same thing with music apps. 5 out of 10 would not resume or play next music. to me these were so annoying. so i took it back and got qc35ii and i love it. i know sound quality and noise canceling is slightly better on sony but for sure qc35ii out competes sony for the rest of the features.
@@vahidnajafzadeh4137 The sound quality is good? Then there is an audio delay with the ps4?
I have the QC25s and the noise cancelling is amazing.
I've tried both and yes they are both great. Sony has the better base and functions. But nothing beats the comfort of the Bose not pressing on your ears. If you're planning to keep it on for multiple hours a day, Bose is the way to go. Do miss the equalizer, but Spotify and such got it built in fortunately (on mobile).
Sony REALLY needs to work on their naming convention.
No dude, who dont want to say Sony hdyche7u29ybwicu3, is pretty cool
it’s confusing at first but not difficult to understand, WH (wireless headphone) 1000X (product name) M3 (mark 3)

So deep
The Sony ones are insane, it’s actually kinda scary how you can’t hear a thing outside of them.
Why are none of these made out of metal.
@@ethanrobinson5536 Metal sits heavy on your head and becomes less comfortable than plastic on longer listening sessions. Metal headphones are not ideal at all.
For me the comfort of the Bose has meant I can work all day in them with glasses over my ear as well and it’s incredible how good they are. I concur the control over sound in the Sony is better, but I’m not listening to music for the music, but rather as background for working. I’m Bose all the way.
You had me at glasses 🤓
"I’m not listening to music for the music, but rather as background for working."
YES + glasses
Oomg yessss, it's so hard to find headphone that is comfortable for glasses users. Bose all the way!
My ears and mind are saying yes but my wallet and kidneys are saying no.
Normal human's error
The bose ones are worth it! I love mine
Lost my wallet with the Sony
Lol
😂😆
The reason for folding them the other way round is hygiene: the pads don't touch the surface they're laying on.
Edoardo Guido yeah and it is more comfortable round the neck
No its so that you can reach for your headphones and take them off and set them down in one fluid movement
I grab mine with my thumbs pointing forward
then i lift them off of my head and flip them onto the table
sounds complicated but i end with the cups pointing away from me and the headband toward me
Strictly Cast RC makes sense
How dirty is *your* house
Agree that always bothered me so I always just leave them around my neck
Lew: Talks about Two 300$+ headphones
Me: Whimpers in Skullcandy
Same i have a broken skullcandy riff wireless but the two drivers are okay
I just got the skullcandy venue model and am not impressed with the noise cancelling... What model do you have? My most important thing is the noise cancelling. Thanks.
@@jacquelinekolb434 hi, mine is not a noise cancelling one, it's a mid range Cassette plus Wireless, very limited, very bass heavy I like that, but over time does tend to get uncomfortable
now those 2 are under $300
Don't be upset, I'm sure you'll have them one day.
I have Bose QC35 abd been listening everything whit them for over a year now. Works perfectly. One thing to say - its awesome to have buttons on headphones (volume etc...) since i live in Finland and we have freezing winters. And touch screen things doesnt like freezing weather and it starts to live its own life. So its really nice to have buttons :)
I bought the Sony's and treat them like a newborn baby 🤣
Dale Howarth Same haha
Dale Howarth how is it going bro? Is it good?
So your pampering them a lot and wake up in the middle of the night, cause they’re screaming?
Dale Howarth same😂
Same here. Lol
I own Sony, and i satisfy after 1 year, the quality is consistent.
Is the leather showing any wear and tare?
just ordered these. Thank you!
@@sulaimansharif7 still the same as the first time i purchased, although i use it almost everynite.
One question that hasn't been answered in most of the videos I have seen... how is the mic quality?
trying to read this gave me a stroke
Those Sony headphones are honestly amazing. Wonderful sound. The only problem I have is when it’s blowing outside while you use noise cancelling. They recognize the wind as a sound and try to counter it but it just gets worse instead.
I’d prefer the Sony’s just because of the configurability. I like having the ability to customise the experience with the tech. Makes it feel like it’s yours
Well said
SthamerAMVs Coughs apples
Yeah, just like apple does, right
The customisation is only available when you chose the option connectivity over quality, and if you buy the sony you should try to take advantage of sony's ldac bluetooth codec (which let you experience cd quality in bluetooth), instead of some equalizer and minor effects.
SthamerAMVs the reason why I like *Android*
The Sony's fold that way so they can lay flat while around your neck.
Thank you!
which is amazing.
That gonna be more useful versus the others..
Yeh it fits way better on ur neck flat
That position is choking me right now 😂😂
Public: Why is it named that. Ceo of sony: Sighs when he dropped his keyboard and pressed enter
Bought the Sony set last night with a big staff discount. Incredible, I was hearing guitar squeaks and grinds on strings in recordings I've listened to my whole life that I didn't know were there. A depth of sound on another level. Thx so much for the comparison @UnboxTherapy.
Damn I need these to be like $20 so I can afford them
Honestly 👏🏼😎
you're ears will forgive you they are soooo good!!
That's why them tax returns comes in handy. Lol I've own the Sony's. Best investments ever. I rarher have Bose for home entertainment systems.
Shoplifting is the answer.
@@beanut.putter what store do you shop at with $450 headphones just laying around?
Air pods fans left the chat.
Anmol Kamoji completely different market dude
Lol😂😂😂😂😂
Yeah dude don’t even compare them if you know about earbuds and headphones then you would know that airpods can’t even compete
Air pods? Headphones for ants?
Airpods can't compete with anything until they fix them falling out of your ears from turning your head lol
I would give it to the Sony soundwise but still got the Bose due to pure convenience. The lacking ability to connect two devices at the same time to the Sony headphones was a dealbreaker for me. And i prefer having actual buttons over touch controls. All in all they are both amazing, you can't go wrong with both of these and it comes down to what you prefer.
Miss this setup and table. It was a much cleaner, clearer experience than the whole warehouse behind you.
I just came back from a trip from Japan and I used the Bose qcii's the whole flight pretty much (total of probably 9 hours). Honestly when I was in the store I tried both the Sony and the Bose and while I certainly know Sony has the upper hand with sound quality, I know for a fact I couldn't wear the Sony's for that long. In the end, if you own either of these headphones just be thankful and stop bickering. They are both excellent headphones. There are people out there that use dollar store earbuds you sickos! We are fortunate.
Very well said
Yeah I'm one of those using Walmart headphones.. I aint cashing out $300+ for headphones rn
Great comment ;)
I own the Sonys (I did a side by side comparison and was blown away by the sound quality and functionality). Your point about comfort is well stated, though. I can wear my Sonys for about 5hrs max.
You can't go wrong with either (I own Bose Soundsports for the gym and LOVE them as well). When paired with my Note 9 with LDAC support (high definition Bluetooth) and Dolby upscaling (which is mind-blowing), it's clear that we're in the golden age of tech. Lucky bastards we are...
I wouldn't say it better *claps*

Apple doesn’t have any headphones
@@kevynbasilio1406 They have Airpods, and Apple owns Beats as well but they don't compare to Bose or Sony
Mando Beats is still it’s own company, apple barley has anything to do with what beats does with their headphones. And why tf are you comparing EARBUDS to HEADPHONES?
Just bought the Sony’s today and holy shit their good! The noise cancelling is amazing!
L4Chl4N they fucking gave me a headache idk why. Might return em
Cam 1 yeah it takes a bit of getting used for some people, try depressurizing your ears as if you were on a plane or adjusting on the app
they're.
What about the sound quality? I mean the bass
Abubakar Javed ꪜ if bass means sound quality to you I fell sorry for you.
Thanks for the review. I am getting the Bose for my 83 year old mom because of the fact that it has buttons and switches and the Sony for myself and kids.
BEATS STUDIO 3 HAVE LEFT THE CHAT.........
hahahaha!!
Only thing studios does better compared to these two amazing pairs is look. Hopefully both headphones can adopt that
Indian.techsupport yes the studios look amazing compared to the Sony’s and Bose
they are hot trash
I went to comparison shop on these yesterday and then beats were not even on my radar.
Love the sound signature of Sony M3's but the most amazing feature for me is the ability to release cabin pressure during flights when reaching high altitudes and when landing, by activating the atmospheric optimizer of the headphone. I used it for a couple of international flights and cabin pressure on my ears hurts no more.It's so great.
please I listen a lot of rock music would you recommend this headphones
@@ivanmoto3848 Yes, I would recommend this because I also listen to rock and pop songs, but I would suggest that you should visit a sony store or a headphone store to try it first and to test it out before you buy.
I have the Sony ones, and generally I’m very happy with them - the only thing is that they’re very interrupted by cold weather (below 0 c - I live in Norway). I e they keep jumping back and forth between songs, and starting and stopping the music. The touch function sometimes get affected by wind as well. I used to have Bose before and they had no problems in cold or harsh weather.
Tusen takk for dette! Prøver a avgjøre om jeg skal kjøpe bose på nytt eller prøve Sony. Men å kunne bruke dem hele året er viktig!
I have the both the Bose and Sony. I tend to use my Sony due to the function of it. Like you mentioned, Sony offers much more functions and customization. In a way the Sony allows you to control your headphones opposite to the other way around, if that makes sense.
But how's the customer service? I had a pair of QC25's and had fallen asleep with them on. Woke up with them on the floor and when I put them on, the one side didn't work anymore. I called Bose's customer support, explained what happened, and without questions or hassle they offered to send me a replacement pair (even though mine were past their warranty), stating that a fall like that shouldn't have damaged them. All I had to do was send the damaged pair back and the new ones were there within a week.
I'm now a loyal Bose customer. I'd be curious to see how Sony's customer service is.
ikr!!
Ye there customer service is amazing I snapped my cable on mine on a flight to NYC went to the Bose store explained I broke them and would like to buy a new one. But they just got one and gave it to me and said we hope you continue to enjoy them. I was blow away
I own a few Sony products and unfortunately I'll admit their customer support is pretty bad. had some issues but they were pretty unhelpful , I still use their products cause their classiness and style will never be matched in my opinion but it's something to look out for
Ive been bose Customer but when i went on a vacation to India and my bose headphones went missing so i thought lets buy some new ones and visited a store near me and they didnt have any bose stuff but i took the sony ones and they said it has the worldwide warranty when i came back to US i tried contacting them for a simple question and they did serve me with better options so its a 50/50 for me i like both of them
man i thought i had a hair follicle on my screen but its your damn display picture
My Sony XM3 are my mom’s worst nightmare because I never hear anything she says. She regrets buying them for me. 😂
just put the NC into "Voice" mode or cover the right side with your palm temporarily
I have the XM2 bought it last year and my mom hate it because I can’t hear her she shouts my name 😂😂
Lol
Same
Kinda funny cuz I’m actually buying these for having conversations with my mom lol. That Quick Attention feature is just what I needed because I’m always having to take my current headphones off
I had the bose qc2 700....wore them out.....tried the Sony xm1000....wore them out....now working with the Marley headphones.....my favorite so far
When I bought my QC35'S a few years ago I tried all the noise canceling headphones. I found the bose to be the best. What was also interesting was after trying each I asked the guy in the store if they had there product most of them said they had the bose headphones and the ones who had there product said they had it cause of staff discount and that the bose was the best on the market. I only really use them for flying and they are incredible for this, anyone that flysheet a lot buy some you won't regret it there worth every penny. Also take a look around at what others have around there neck waiting at the gate and see how many are Sony.

Don't forget: Sony uses LDAC. Freaking prime quality
Most people can't tell the difference between aptX and LDAC or let alone SBC at 320 kbps.

@@matthewclark4510 Nah man, I have the WH1000XM2'S for a year now and I've tried so many times to notice any difference between SBC and LDAC and there is absolutely no difference. SBC is better because you can use features like Arena Mode
@Matthew Clark That's pure placebo. 99% of people actually can not tell difference between 320 kbps MP3 and lossless. Study after study it's been proven.
@@bryan7300 You actually CAN hear the difference between 320kbps and lossless when the audio is played LOUD enough. Lossless performs better in extreme volume conditions as it does not get distorded like mp3 and is louder too.
Sonny was the best, I kind of knew it from the start. Just did the research to make sure. Thank you, great honest channel.
Thank you for being on point with each one
I like how in every review, no one ever mentions the multi device connectivity of the Bose vs the singular connection of Sony.
Go on, I'm listening.
Wait so it isn't the other way around?
This is a big deal to me. I ended up with the Bose and having it connected to my iPhone and iPad at he same time is awesome.
Roy Beauchamp my thoughts exactly
I've got the Sony's and it's so frustrating having to manually disconnect and reconnect when i want to switch audio source. Definitely a negative
I was watching the video with the Sonys on. I picked up my set at the Sydney airport on my way back to the States. I was so surprised by the audio quality. I won't travel without them.
I am quite happy with the Bose; excellent fit, comfortable, clear digital sound and noise canceling. However, not heavy on bass if that's what your looking for with an equalizer capability. Great review and seems your Sony advantage points are accurate!!
It's the brand not the headphones u like😂😂😂
The sonny's twist that way so when you have them around your neck they are faced towards your chest and are much more comfortable
U can do it with the bose aswell... i have them
Figuring out which one is better by reading comments only makes things worse, seems to be 50/50 which one is better from each persons perspective :/
I have both so here is like the main points.
Bose- more comfortable, looks cleaner imo, Bose feels little better built than the Sony on the hardware side.
Sony- slightly better sound quality and noise canceling, more features,
Also I haven’t had any call problems with either one.
Although I know Sony is better on the audio side, I still use my Bose a lot more, idk why but I just really like the look and feel of the device
@@justinchoijcjc The issue is that the 35 ii are old(ish) and likely to be replaced soon. So do I go for the XM3s knowing that they may be slightly less comfortable for long use, but have USB C and other 'new' features, or go for the QC35 ii knowing that they are probably slightly better for the long plane rides I often do, but could be replaced by a new model in a few months time...? Decisions, decisions!
Mark Reynolds-Corden realistically both are incredible headphones, you’ll be happy with either one. Just decide what’s more important to you. You’re going to have an easier time with Bose, but I personally believe sound quality and noise cancelation is the most important virtue. And also it wouldn’t hurt to wait a little for the next release
Mark RC but with all things considered I feel like the Boses comfort is a bigger benefit than most people think. My ears get really hot a lot quicker on the Sony
justinchoijcjc thanks you! It seems like I’ll be going with the Bose then. I’ve had good experience with them and comfort with only slightly “worse” sound quality is more important to me
I'm still using the same QC25 as I did 3 years ago. Unbelievably happy with them still. I use them A LOT (averaging several hours a day), so the earcups got a bit worn out after 2½ years, but luckily you can just get a new pair to click on. Don't know about the newer models, but the QC25 is 10/10 for me, and I can imagine that the newer models must be even better.
Still a big fan of Sony though, so I will definitely take this review into account, should I want a new pair at some point.
Watched with my Bose QC ii
Still rocking the QC15 right here, don't want any new headphones. Being able to repair them so easy is the only reason I still have them after all this time.
On Amazon you can buy w Bluetooth dongle that sits flush with the headphone. There is no difference between the 25 and 35 other than the AA batteries and Bluetooth
@@Timgo96 tru, just bought a cheap new cord/pad kit for 20bucks of Amazon a few months ago, still rock them. Might soon upgrade though. With so many choices though, its a bit daunting to decide.
Having owned those you have, and the Sonys and the new QCs, the Sony's are way way way way ahead in every possible way with the exception of comfort where the Bose QCs are just a tad more comfy - especially for sleeping.
In any case, you have no idea what you're missing out on man. These are king for a reason. Sony has been wrecking it up since the v1s of these came out.
Thx for the clear and transparant review. That 2,5 to 3,5” cable and the USB-C are two things I really don’t want for now. So I’ll go for a different brand thx to this review. 👌
Glad I came back and found this video in the archives. I have been considering getting new over ear noise cancelling head phones for comfort and longevity. Either of these may fit the bill. Thank you.

Great review. But most devices with touch technology tend to crash, on the other side with buttons it last longer.
I have the Bose QC35 II and my bf has the Sony WH1000XM3, so I have also experienced both. Overall, Sony's NC features are definitely superior. However, for the value, I am super happy with my Bose headphones! :) They are still fantastic at noise cancelling. I use them for video editing and the sound quality is awesome. Honestly, when I tried Sony vs. Bose for pure music sound quality (pre-EQ), I couldn't tell the difference.
I'd say if you have the money to waste, go for Sony, but if you want to be frugal, Bose is just as stellar.
which is more comfortable?
I have the Bose QC35 ii and it's amazing 😘
Nightcore Lab I have Sony and they’re more amazing ;)
I took my Bose back because they made my ears feel like I was on a plane. The Sonys are great though.
lol... If all you listen is bose it will sound amazing... till you hear something else. Bose is an overpriced cookie cutter product. YOu get what comes out of the box and thats it... no fine tuning, no adjustability
@@franciscosantiago9032 I listened to both of them actually before deciding on which to buy
I have my kidneys and theyre amazing
I have the Bose and bought my wife the Sony. Love them both and have used them for a few months. Must say, I agree with the video-Sony’s are a touch better. Now if I can just find a way to sleep on my side with them😂
Kevin Pinder memory foam pillow and a cut a hole in it haha
Austin
Yes me too i want some kind of pillow
How loud do the sony get?? I like loud music :D
Please confirm which is having good bass
I like it when you said give 'em couple of points there
thank you, I am purchasing today strictly based on this video!
Finally a non smartphone video

Tested both these out in the shop and honestly the Sony was like a magic trick. The ability to have ambient sound come through under different conditions is amazing. So is you are on a bus or train it senses that and dials up the noise cancelling and when you come off and start walking it detects you are walking and lets in ambient noise so you are more aware of your surroundings! We bought ours for a trip to Chicago (15 hours on a plane) and am looking forward to cutting all that noise out!
I remember watching this video 2 years ago. And i finally bought the XM3s and they are amazing
@Medardo Lomeli Nice man 👍👌
I like the Sony's design better. By the way who is watching this in 2020?
Joyce Quansah hahah, I am

Hi guys, what a great review! I was in Best Buy this morning and tested the Sony units in the store! I was blown away by the immediate "whisper room" quiet they provided. I could hear nothing and then with the touch to hear function, I could hear people talking at the cash registers clearly! I was so blown away that of course, I came home and did a UA-cam Search which brought me here. I did also try the Bose, but even with the max noise cancelling setting, I could still hear reps talking to people just barely while with the Sony I heard zip.. nothing.... like being in a sound booth. SOLD!!!!! Now I'm shopping around for the best price. If anyone is in doubt, the Sony headphones are KING in this category.. just my opinion :)
Pretty solid deal on Amazon for 258 ordered myself a pair today
I wouldn't buy em yet, there is a new version of the Sony's coming out soon
@@anishnattamai8801 oh really ?
@@anishnattamai8801 when?
@@moriyama815 soon probably cause it's been a while since the xm3 has been out and bose just released the 700's and sony has to make some sort of competition for that
You should've walked around with the Sony's to hear how the ambient noise control changes as you move! Really interesting feature
After watching this video I went and got the sony wh-1000XM3s, and they are incredible. But just as a warning if you live in a colder area like myself. They tend to act up almost immediately after stepping outside in (ex, lowering and raising volume, skipping tracks and disconnecting). And that's a major issue for me being that its normall for temperatures to drop below 20° degrees Celsius.
I don't know, I live in a relatively cold area and I haven't had any issues. Could you perhaps have a faulty device? Try contacting Sony or checking out the warranty policy to see if anything can be done about it.
@@TheTravisng at -20° Celsius mine start to act up after 3 minutes on my break. Since -30° to -40° Celsius is normal here you can forget about using them with bluetooth outside. I've been searching if people were experiencing the same issue and it's a big problem. It's a shame because I love these headphones and I dont want to take them back. I'll replace them but i doubt it will help
Any battery powered electronics don't do good in those temperatures. You are better off getting something wired for the winter (although you won't have noise cancelling)
It's just condensation on the touchpad. You can usually wipe it off unless it's happening inside the headphones
Damn that's too cold for homo-sapiens in my opinion
Agreed. I own a pair of the WH-1000XM3 and they are the BEST pair of headphones I have ever owned.
Hey
...how is it working in playing pubg in mobile ??
Ive heard people complaining about not comfortable after a while, hbu
justddddddd I mean if you wear them for like 4 hours straight then you might need to take em off for a sec but nah they’re super comfortable
On hearing this review i ordered Sony wh1000xm3b.
I have a lot of sony gear already and always happy with their products.
I just got the Bose quiet comfort 2 because they were 250$ and I’m really excited. I didn’t research the sonys but wow I’m impressed
I have the QC 35 II and the noise cancellation is so good it’s actually pretty dangerous.. Sometimes my friends/parents are yelling maybe 3-5 feet away trying to get my attention and I literally cannot hear a single peep whilst listening to music/watching a video. I’d love to try those Sony headphones out tho.
What firmware are you on?
Sony does it better but I still prefer Bose due to its extreme comfort and deecent sound quality.
@@Clarity520 the sound quality is complete shit tbh
@@stellar3327 nope they are not. They arent as good as sony's but definitely not bad either. A lotta peopld arent just interested in bass
Same issue here but I love my Bose headphones all the same
7:48 I knew he's amazed by the sound quality...
BBQ sauce on his lip says it all
Great video ... wonder why music companies don’t license short amount of a track and maybe increase sales ?
I've the whm1000m3 and they are simply outstanding in sound quality aswell as noise canceling
Headphone jacks! Too bad there's no more holes to put them in...
There are if you have a Samsung phone! 😁
@@darkangel5550 and I have one! :D look out for the s10 tho
@@sonikku997 Cool! It's gonna be a beast! 🔥
Get a budget phone, lol
Put It in da piihole !!
I have the Sony and it's absolutly awesome
So good hey. Bought the black one first release. If only you could pair to multiple devices and switch over easily without disconnecting.
I already have the WH-1000XM3 as I’m watching this lol
and I have the Bose QC 35 II's haha, cheers mate!
After watching this I opted for the Sony pair. I have terrible & loud neighbors (that also have a constantly screaming baby) and the noise reduction helps me not lose my mind. I also use them with my PC directly connected. The noise reduction while wired still works as long as the headphones are on. I'm very impressed with them so far. Great sound quality, too. Thanks
I have both the Bose Qc35 II and the Sony m3. Other than comfort (they are both equally comfortable), m3 is better in every aspect period. No competition. It has better NC (many labs have tested this and published their results), better battery life, better customization (auto-detect adaptive sound control), better functions (quick attention where you can cover the right ear cup and instant hear outside noise), and more future proofing (usb c connection).
At the moment, Bose Qc35 IIs are slightly cheaper by ~$50. But they have been out in the market for a while so if you are thinking of buying one of these, I would say going with the Sony m3s is a safe choice. Yes, they are $50 more expensive but you can be confident that you are getting the very best NC the market offers today.
Depends on where you live, the Sony's here are way cheaper compared to Bose's.
Thou I agree on your view.
is the sony headphones over ear like bose qc 35?
Yes- the 1000x series (mark 1/2/3) are over-ear headphones
Not equal on comfort, period.
@Rob Thanks for your comment. Comfort is a subjective matter as it is something that is not objectively measurable. (For example, sound "quality" or how good the music sound is not really measurable unlike the amount of active noise cancelling, which is actually measurable by studying the counter frequencies).
So some people will find the Qc 35 IIs more comfortable while others find the m3s more comfortable. For me, they were equally comfortable so my comparisons were based on measurable variables like the amount of NC, battery life, features etc. Hope that made sense.
I have tried 1000XM3 in Costco, it was impressive, and there are too many people having QC35 on the street, so I would like to have something different.
Bought the Sony today cheers for the review and advice they are amazing
I own the Bose Qc35 II and it's the best purchase i've ever made. I don't regret at all and recommend BOSE 500%. Before those i had the QC25 in white- blue color and when that pair started malfunctioning i contacted customer service for repair and had to wait like 2 months to get a replacement but just for the trouble of waiting so long they gave me a brand new pair of headphones.
I’ve had the option to test both and greatly prefer the Sony headphones.
I love the Sony because the sound is so freaking nice. But Sony has one weakness and that is the advantage of Bose which is comfortness.
"Comfortness" isn't a word. Just use "comfort."
I think you’re referring to the older models. These the mk3 and they specifically made changes for comfort. The changes worked too - mine are great
@@paradroid888 Yup I have the Mark 2 I love the voice but it does not feel so comfortable.
the Sony's are a little heavy and I don't like that my ears touch the inside of the ear cups. Other than that they are great.
The new Sony versions are way comfier than the old pair
WH1000XM4 now is online, we need your excellent review ❤️
I got the sony ones for Christmas this year and they really are unbelievable
Let's be honest, any of these will blow your mind ! Reaching this price range, you're good to go either way.
Have been using Sony WH1000XM3 for last 3 months and they are phenomenal!!
I know! Sony all the way!!
I like that you actually chose one 👏👏
few years late, but managed to get my work to foot the bill, so the Bose QC35IIs were on sale for 5 days below $200, so I jumped at it. Better than what I have now.
