Advantage Disadvantage
This one and their two predecessors are at the top of the best headphones list, and earning customer’s choice also. When Sony launched its new wireless earbuds with noise cancellation technology, that day the Sony company win the award in wireless earbuds.
But due to the launch of Apple Airpods pro, Sony is no longer unique because most people go for Apple as compared to Sony. Apple is a great achiever in the market that always preferred by the people.
Fit and finish of Sony WF-1000XM3
The Sony WH-1000XM3 name bears “ “, comes in a sleek black — copper charging case with a flat top embedded with a Sony log on it.
In most cases, true wireless earbuds don’t come with C type charging but this charging case comes with C-type. It is compact and can fit in any pocket, and due to the flat top, it gets easily lay down on the surface.
The upper cap of the charging case flips up and reveals the two earbuds inside it, and also there is a big red led light in front of the case that lets you know if its charging or not.
Well, the design of the earbuds gives premium look and the quality is perfect but the style is not unique. Sony provides the people’s choice, noise cancellation earbuds which are best for commuters and business people.
Well, the company sticks to the true design, with a simple look and black-grey color look. They are a bit bulkier than Apple Airpods pro.
Sony includes two different ear tips available in three sizes i.e. ( small, medium and large ) and the quality of all buds is good and up to the mark.
In the past, there are wired earphones, we don’t even think of this wireless earphones. But now earbuds are having no wire. it’s like a dream come true.
Features and controls of Sony WF-1000XM3
Battery of Sony WF-1000XM3
Charging Case of Sony WF-1000XM3
The charging case also has plenty of battery as it offers three full charges for up to 18 hours of battery backup. The battery got less if noise cancellation is on.
It means if the noise cancellation is on then it offers 18 hours of battery life but if it is off then it offers 24 hours of battery life.
There is an awesome quick charge feature that will charge this earbud in 10 minutes and it gives 90 minutes of playback time. This feature is great for those, who forget to charge their earbuds.
More Functions
There is also a glossy touchpad on both earbud’s exterior that allows you to access voice assistant, play and pause song or change song.
Sony also has a great feature that allows you to turn off the single earbuds while wearing. You have to long touch on the left earbud to get it off and then you can easily listen to the outside voice. In this way, you don’t have to remove the earbuds from your ear.
Sony has packed this earbud with a noise-canceling chip and two microphones on both earbuds and helps in blocking out the outside world.
This works when you are out in the crowded place, or by bus then you will feel the preciousness in it. Your voice gets transferred to the other person clearly without any interruptions.
You can use each earbud separately while on calls or music because both earbuds have a separate microphone in it.
The noise cancellation works well while on call and it also offers clarity and good sound quality. This feature is not found in cheap earbuds.
In most headphones, apps are designed for pairing the aids ( earbuds ) but in Sony connect application, you can pair the buds but you can also get more features like you can adjust the equalization, easily set the desired level of noise cancellation, can also activate the google assistant or Siri.
They don’t provide any IpX certification for dust and water-resistant. Well, I am not happy with that as if you’re taking too much money but you don’t provide any protection. So, use them at your own risk.
Well, this is the biggest disadvantage or shortcoming. They don’t provide any protection against water. so, if you are using them in the gym then use them at your own risk.
When this earbud launched, they even don’t provide any control for volumes or there is no way for the activation of the voice assistant.
But after that, they fixed that with new options in their app that lets you activate the google assistant and also allows you to control the volume and ANC on /off.
Normally, the earbuds costs around Rs 21500 and they don’t have any protection against water is a serious factor. However, this is not a big deal, due to two reasons.
, the earbuds are designed for business trips or offices and, If you are using them in the gym then off-course you’re not sweating like a bucket.
Well, Sony claims of not getting any complaints about the previous ( generation) earbuds. They seem pretty confident that you can use them during workout too.
Sound quality of Sony WF-1000XM3
Sony equipped the earbuds with engine that is designed to improve sound clarity and it really works well in Sony WF-1000XM3 , and if we combine the noise-canceling then it became one of the best wireless earbuds.
The sound quality provided by the earbuds is speechless. Well, Sony is one of the best in electronics. The mids and lows are good and the treble is crisp and clear.
There is an advantage to the Sony app. If you don’t like the song base or treble then you can easily customize or adjust it through the app according to your likes.
Just go to the equalizer setting and changes it to rock, jazz, e.t.c. because it always set to default. It is not bad but change is necessary. That’s it, now enjoy the songs.
