Product Information

The wireless Sony WH-1000XM2 are an excellent revision of an already great pair of headphones. They sound great, deftly wield noise cancellation technology and cost just as much as a pair of Bose QC35s. They might have a slightly shorter battery life than Bose's flagship over-ear headphones, but Sony's WH-1000XM2 outclass the QC35 in terms of performance and feature-set. We disliked

This will all make sense if you've used touch-capacitive headphones in the past, but hand these headphones off to someone who's unfamiliar with touch controls and they'll be utterly confused. edit, change, modify, adapt, translate or otherwise change the Software in whole or in part, nor allow all or part of the Software to be combined with or integrated into other Software, decompile, disassemble, or reverse engineer the Software, or try to do such things, mW (1kHz) (when connecting via the headphone cable with the unit turned on) , 98dB / mW (1kHz) (when connecting via the headphone cable with the unit turned off) While the overall design is really noteworthy, there are a few problem points to point out. One is that while the bridge is made of metal, the arms of the headphone (the strips of material that connect the earcups to the bridge) are made of plastic, as are the hinges that connect the earcups to the arms.

Listening to Blink 182's Blame It On My Youth, we experienced a wide, open soundstage, and fantastic separation between the frequencies. Wailing guitars cut through the mix, while distorted drums crunched below in tandem with cascading bass lines. By a lot of people's standards that's not necessarily cheap – so what is it that keeps the price of the Sony WH-1000XM2 headphones relatively high. A few reasons.

Final verdict Not having the good fortune of having a flight to test them out on, we resorted to more pedestrian forms of transportation (trains and car rides), crowded locales and simulated test environments (a jet-engine noise played over our home speaker system) to test these out.
