The Best Noise Cancelling Headphones... Bose or Sony?

Bose QC35 II (USA Link) - amzn.to/2SioGnc
Sony WH1000XM3 (USA Link) - amzn.to/2SioLr0
Bose QC35 II (International) - geni.us/AFuKKLC
Sony WH1000XM3 (International) - geni.us/eH6W
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?

[@randomtakka2032]

why? are bose really that bad?

[@00000005547]

@@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.

[@vahidnajafzadeh4137]

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.

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!

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...

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.

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 :/

[@justinchoijcjc]

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

[@mjrc123]

@@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!

[@justinchoijcjc]

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

Sony WH1000XM3 is my FIRST Noise Cancellation Headphones! So NOT AN Expert opinion :P -) Noise Cancellation is like using a tight In-Ear headphones But this is more comfortable -) This will block external noise like AC, FAN, Rain etc. Block means not 100% but 80 to 90%! -) If you play music! You will not hear anything from outside world! (As I said an In-Ear headphones do the same but it will be slightly painful) -) A tight In-Ear headphones are not a replacement for Built in Noise Cancellation! I just point it out to the people who never experienced a Noise Cancellation headphones in life. This Noise Cancellation is Another level. You will only believe it when you actually get a chance to use it. NO KZbin reviews will give you the real experience. This Noise Cancellation Headphones is useful WHEN - I watch youtube videos / tutorials - I write code - I brainstorming - I travel - I go to bed and hear some songs before sleep - I need to disconnect from the annoying world! around me :) Battery life is really good. USB-C means one less cable, Fast charging is good!, Touch control is awesome, if you put right hand to right ear cup you can come back to the world you are in. it is a huge plus, when mom are dad call me! all I need to do is put my hand on the right ear cup! Overall this NC Headphone Improved my life! Here is how. - Now I can focus more on my work - Less distraction from external noise (It is not 100% But 99% of the time it is 100%) - I hate travelling because of the the sounds and noise will influence my thoughts, I actually waste my time while travel because of that. yes a good In-Ear earphone can help but this is another level. So now I can actually do my stuff in my own world using this Noise Cancellation Headphones! Value? Yes -- if you have 30K to throw away. And it will not hurt your life in any way. No -- if you need to save money for next 12 Months to get this. Sound Quality? Base is there! If you are looking for that. But the nice thing is Sony's EQ can Adapt! That means anyone can change the Sound Aspects according to there needs from the Application. Out of the box it is perfect for my taste! If someone like less base you can change that through EQ. No product is perfect so in this Model what to improve? - Only once device can be connected at a time. (Minimum 2 devices is required now a days! [eg Laptop and SmartPhone]) - User replaceable ear cup cushions! - Call Quality. This Headphones have an array of microphones but when when we call someone they will hear all Background Noise. I used it for some VOIP calls, It is usable but built in Microphones on your phone will do a much better job. - More and improved NC! Yes why not. There is always room for improvements. ^^ I really don't know what to write as cons.

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.

@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.

Based on personal preference and your (video) experience, I would go and stick with my QC35. It didn't excite me to try Sony's due to its comprehensiveness, or in my word, complications. It's like Apple vs Samsung. You like user-friendly (from age 10 - 80), go for Apple. If you enjoy customizing and making that small little changes to suit yourself better, go for Samsung - it allows you to. Plug and play - that's what I like.

This was a really tough choice for me, considering that I had always dreamt of being able to purchase the latest Bose QC headphones. I was happily going to purchase them until I heard about the competition and realised that I should check the other options out before buying anything. After watching several KZbin unboxing and review videos, as well as checking out professional online review sites, I was able to finally reach a conclusion. Though the Bose QC35 II have a better Bluetooth pairing feature and a slightly more comfortable design, the Sony WH 1000 XM3 are superb in every other way. I recently purchased them and I have been pleasantly surprised by how much better they are to use in real life. The video reviews don't do these headphones justice, you need to try them out and then you'll see why they're worth it. Bose has met its match in Sony...

[@jucci7372]

Would you say the Noise cancelation is better in the Bose than the Sony?

[@theredflagisgreen]

Tested both 2017 models, bought the 1000xM2; comes down to extreme comfort (QC) vs excellent comfort with more going on (WH).. If you're looking for something to chill at home with or comfortably is extremely important, QC35 may be best for you. If you're looking for something to travel or commute with, 1000xM3 are more likely what you need (personal experience on London Underground, BART (SF Bay Area public transit) and long flights). Bottom line: 1000xM3 are better for most situations Note: ear pads on 1000xM2 have worn down with time and heavy use (gym, commute, office, home, gaming -- every day for over a year) but noise cancelling is still 70%+ peak performance after a year (haven't been able to find replacements).

[@anthonym.7426]

It's still difficult to pick one over the other. But overall, yes, I'd take the M3's. By inches, however, if not centimeters.

[@mymycat187]

m2 ear cups make my hear so hurt, but the sound quality is great

[@bikowalczyk]

XM3 are so, so, so much more comfortable than M2

[@Francefire]

Bose QC35 also wear out, a friend have one and his cups are slightly worn out

[@hughman4575]

Having tried both, I'd say the exact opposite - 1000xM3 are bigger and so more suited to listening at home. QC35 multipoint connection beats the M3s when I need to frequently switch from my iPad (watching movies during flight) and iPhone (making calls and listening to music once on the ground). Switching devices is a real pain with the Sony's.

[@tofuub]

Bro i just noticed these are better Than airpods

[@LukasHauf]

Yeah and for the price it’s not bad it’s just around 100$ more for those if you buy them on sale

[@Sabundy]

What isn't better than Airpods? (almost every other brand has more features). Plus you get the extra added value of not looking like an idiot that has two small hairdryers hanging out of your ears.

[@create._.]

yea airpods too much just for wireless bluetooth, the sound is exactly the same as the wired ones

[@danielpruitt8550]

Airpods are expensive shit TBH

I don't know, that's why I'm watching your review....and i still don't know 😂

[@romkalev.9762]

Sony bro. 100%. The sound equalizer changes the sound incredibly. Thank god i didnt buy bose when i was choosing.

[@TheBeatboxHitmanTwo]

Pretty good sound wireless. But once you use it wired...it sounds as flat as SpongeBob's ass.

[@funknugget6334]

Beatbox Hitman lmao wait for real

[@byicee5059]

@@funknugget6334 Sounds fine to me wired. But you're not buying wireless headphones to be wired anyways

[@calixtodavila]

Beatbox Hitman. You have to keep them powered on even while wired. That way the built-in analog DAC can do its magic. The Bluetooth get deactivated when you insert the 3.5 mm wire.

[@tzajc2]

Where are the Microsoft headphones in this comparison?

[@miguelibarra4935]

They're good, but not a top 3 headphone. Top 5 though. Good job on Microsoft's part for their first NC Headphones.

[@number1birdie]

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.

[@Binvernon]

If you want to use headphones for long periods of time and you want to block just "constant" noise (motors, airplanes, constructions): Go for Bose. If you are going to use it outside on the street or public places full of people for not so long periods of time (resting every 2 or 3 hours): Go for Sony. They block much more than Bose but aren't so confortable.

[@okayge_]

They are very comfortable, i have a pair.

[@Binvernon]

@@okayge_ yeah I own both, but on that area Sony is not as good as Bose's really deep earcups, specially if you live in a hot area or in summer it can be a little bit uncomfortable because of sweat.

[@1pegkd]

There actually is a way to pair more than one device to the wh1000xm3s. it's not in the manual but sony put it online. found it after a bit of digging but if you press the power button for approximately 7 seconds, the bluetooth pairing settings will turn on again. not sure what the maximum amount of devices are, but it's definitely more than 2. hope u see this, this set of headphones are the best i've ever had and should be used to its full potential

[@letthemadnessspeak]

[@TEJANOAMERICANO]

Thanks

[@zohaibasif6274]

The bose ones also have that option

[@ramonzimmermann3995]

✌️👌🙏

[@Injudiciously]

You miss the point. Bose has 2 chips, each pairing with 2 devices continuously. Any 1 chip device can connect with any number, but the Bose allows 2 seamlessly (and an infinite number if you don't mind the disconnect reconnect sequence).

[@vegan.douchebag]

The Sony ones are insane, it’s actually kinda scary how you can’t hear a thing outside of them.

[@ethanrobinson5536]

Why are none of these made out of metal.

[@vegan.douchebag]

@@ethanrobinson5536 Metal sits heavy on your head and becomes less comfortable than plastic on longer listening sessions. Metal headphones are not ideal at all.
