Review on Sony WF-1000XM3 Black Truly Wireless Earbuds with Mic, up to 32 Hours Battery Life, Stable Bluetooth Connection, Wearing Detection and Alexa Built-in for Noise Cancelling by Nguyen Kim Chi ᠌

They are so far ahead of the competition when it comes to sound and noise reduction that it is already worthwhile to take them. Everything else is more contentious, but in my opinion, the benefits much outweigh the drawbacks of the situation. Has some pros Excellent acoustics. The sound is legible and clear, and it has both meat and drive to it. - Superb noise canceling. It is significantly more powerful than the sound on the AirPods Pro, and when combined with even soft music, it gives the impression that you are nearly entirely "in a bubble" (which is what you expect from it). It is convenient to use, and it is convenient to switch between it, the transparency mode, and the simple off state. Using it is also convenient. You can take advantage of a handy function by depressing the touch button for a certain amount of time, during which the transparency will be enabled and the sound will be muffled. - Excellent charge retention and a rapid charging rate. They pick up the signal effectively and across a wide range. - Meticulous craftsmanship applied to the construction of the headphones themselves as well as the carrying case. There is a program that includes things like an equalization and touch button settings, among other things. In general, it is not particularly useful, but the fact that it is there is very much appreciated. These are some downsides: The cover is too large to fit in your pocket, making it an inconvenient accessory to have. When using the SBC bluetooth codec, rather than the AAC codec, they can strongly "sand" at certain frequencies, which essentially renders the use of SBC impossible. It's possible that this is the result of a single issue or a marriage, but either way, it's a problem. As a consequence of this, for instance, you cannot use them on a personal computer running Windows; AAC support was only introduced on the 11th. - It's cumbersome, you have to keep it on your ears the whole day without taking it off, and it doesn't even work. Talking on the phone through them is not very good. When you call, some very strange transparency mode is turned on, as if you were in a pipe. Despite the fact that the ergonomics are good in general — they fit securely in the ears and do not fall out — talking on the phone through them is not very good. It's not a very nice sensation to have. But at least there were no issues with people not being able to hear us. - There are instances when one of the headphones simply stops working. You will need to remove it from the case, replace it, and then remove it once more. Although there was no such issue at first, and once more, perhaps it's just my luck that I'm in this position. - The function that allows for the automatic switching between different noise reduction modes based on your geolocation (for example, work, home, or other places) is more of a marketing gimmick than an actual useful tool. The sound quality enhancement program did not function properly (whether it gets better at all is a question).
