Class-leading sound, Stellar noise cancellation, Excellent battery life, Lighter, comfier design, Intuitive features and touch controls, Tons of sound-customizing settings via Sony Connect app
Aesthetics feel less premium than on previous model, Call quality could be better
Sony definitely upped its game with the WH-1000XM3. The improvements in audio fidelity alone place these headphones on a par with, if not above the QC35 II. They deliver a powerful low-end punch suited for their target demographic, bass lovers, and grant...

Great sound quality, great noise cancellation,
Expensive, touch sensitive controls can take a little getting used to
The Sony WH1000XM3 offers field leading sound quality and noise cancellation. Literally the only downsides of these headphones are the high price tag and the fact that people with very large ears may find them slightly uncomfortable. If you can shell out...
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
