    Reviews indicate they might be alright at $199 but aren't worth anywhere near $349.

    • Switchblade88 on 23/04/2020 - 20:57

      Any recommendations?

      I’m looking for anything similar (over ear, wireless, noise cancelling) and not sure where to start at the lower price points. Anything cheaper and/or better value? I thought Audio Technica were a notably good brand

        I bought the Bose QC35 a while ago. I think at around 300/350 they are well worth it.
        They were a game changer while flying, but I still use them around the house these days.

          They definitely seem to be the gold standard on OzBargain, but they are also almost double the price which I simply can’t justify

            @Switchblade88: They are kind of Silver considering Sony WH-1000XM3 grabs the gold.
            PS: I had Bose QC35 for few weeks and then returned it and got XM3. Very happy with my decision.

            • sm3004 on 24/04/2020 - 07:57

              @EssendonUser: If the Sony ones didn't make my ears so hot then i'd agree, for that fact alone I feel the QC35 are better and imo also slightly more comfortable in general. The benefits of the Sony ones don't really make up for the hot ears.

              @EssendonUser: For an alternative perspective:

              After getting some WFH budget I splurged on the XM3 without doing the necessary due dilligence. There are plenty of infuriating things about the product that I think should be worth mentioning.

              • There is no way to easily switch from connecting your XM3s from one device to another!! In this day and age. Unbelievable. Sony skimped out and used a chip with no dual A2DP support. This means if you have a phone and computer, you need to remember to disconnect the device you are using before reconnecting to the other one, else you have to do the repairing + connecting process from scratch on your secondary device. Super dumb, plenty of online complaints about this one
              • The support forum experience is terrible. Lots of people asking basic questions like whether it's possible that Sony can support dual A2DP with a firmware update, or to inquire about the many bugs introduced in each new update… Support agents are either untrained or are bound to a degree of secrecy to the point where they are unhelpful.
              • The ear cups aren't intended for extended use, your ears get really hot after using them for a while.
              • The microphone is really bad. To the point where I can't use it for work. Not good for $350 cans that should be a work powerhouse.
              • The app is really buggy on my iPhone XS and crashes all the time. Has an App Store rating of 2/5
              • Might be a personal thing, but there is some weird power issues on my pair where you HAVE to use their USB-C cable to charge (doesn't work using my MX Master 3 cable, which I know works for other USB-C devices). This is a problem because the cable they provide is literally 5cm long.

              If you want something purely for music listening (no calls), have no intent on switching your listening device ever, and are OK with subpar supporting software and subpar product support, maybe? Honestly, deeply regret my purchase and would get the QC35s or wait for XM4s anyday.

          • manicmoon on 24/04/2020 - 08:33

            @Switchblade88: I've had my QC35s for 3 years now and the battery life is still amazing as well as the ANC. It really is worth the money for me because I have used it daily since getting it.

        • poposhh on 24/04/2020 - 13:27

          I bought the QC35 first gen at 200$ off a family friend last month, no regrets so far

        Sennheiser HD 4.50. They're currently $150 on the sennheiser outlet website.

          • Theycott on 23/04/2020 - 21:50

            @calcium: They offer full warranty and free returns if you're not happy. The pair I got we're pretty much brand new and that's the experience I've heard from most.

          I may or may not have instagrammed searched for an isic student card when I purchased mine. If you have an eligible card you can get 15% off i think, brings it down to $127.

          Do you have a link for these? I can't find them on a normal google search, might be me ;)

          Doesn't show until you get to checkout but the 4.5 is out of stock :(

          • Switchblade88 on 24/04/2020 - 02:52

            @mistermr6: Sadly you're right

          • FTTNope on 24/04/2020 - 12:05

            @mistermr6: That's frustrating, I was going to buy them.

          • brk on 27/04/2020 - 08:01

            @mistermr6: As the 4.50BTNC has been superceded by the 450BT, I doubt the 4.50 will reappear on the outlet. Frustrating it doesn't show the out of stock until you've decided to try and buy.

        I had a look.. is refurbished…

  • usbc activist on 23/04/2020 - 21:21

    The sound quality of these is very good. Noise Cancellation is decent. But the major drawback of the headphones is their look when you wear them. They look so weird. Also the pads are not very comfortable.

    • dealspider on 24/04/2020 - 10:22

      I have tested many headphones including this before I bought the Sony M3. Yes the sound quality of these headphones are really good. You hear every single instrument. Sony's are the overall best headphones for me. But the Sony's sound quality feels a bit dampen on the mids. Oh and also Sony's are bit bass heavy. I had to use the EQ to bring down the bass. I guess it is personal preference.

      • FTTNope on 24/04/2020 - 11:57

        I didn't like the default EQ on the M3s at all, but there's good options to change it in the Sony headphone app.

        • dealspider on 24/04/2020 - 18:33

          Yes. I had to do the same to bring the base down a bit. Then I found out that if you change the default EQ, Bluetooth codec would revert to SBC from LDAC.

  • Shmuk on 23/04/2020 - 21:26

    Swapped from a traditional gaming headset 2 years ago for these, paid about $300.
    Would never go back.
    they are some of the best equipment i own. ANC on a headset for my pc is a game changer.
    My only peev with this headset is the charging, You cant turn them on while charging, however the battery lasts a pretty decent ammount of time.
    10/10 would buy agian.

    • Shmuk on 23/04/2020 - 21:44

      However i will never buy from the good guys ever agian due to there shitty returns service.

    We have two pairs (me and wife) and both are very happy. I would say they are over 80% of qc35 in basically every aspect (sound, NC, built quality etc.), so if the price is 60%, it's a no brainer. The only small complain I have is max volume, could be a bit higher.

    Edit: and micro USB.

  • NoApostrophePlurals on 23/04/2020 - 23:32

    Can anyone recommend a way to use these with an old tv that doesn't have Bluetooth?

  • beebul on 24/04/2020 - 10:14

    Any recommendations for decent (but reasonably cheap - sub $150) wireless headphones that aren't noise cancelling..? Just for watching movies, listening to music around the house?
    TIA

    • thebadmachine on 24/04/2020 - 15:35

      You could wait around for these Yamaha’s to drop down to $149 again.

      These cans (Tribit XFree Tune) are highly rated. But I haven't got a pair so can't comment. But it's worth doing some research.

      Other option would be these Tao Tronics: https://www.amazon.com.au/Cancelling-Headphones-TaoTronics-B…

      • beebul on 25/04/2020 - 08:21

        Yeah those Tribits get really good reviews, thanks will do some research

          • beebul on 26/04/2020 - 08:09

            @dealspider: Yeah I noticed on all the YouTube videos that were saying well worth $50 which is around 80AUD

              @beebul: Found that I can just order directly from tribit website. 40 USD plus 10 USD shipping to Australia from their China warehouse. Much more attractive option now!

              • beebul on 26/04/2020 - 19:07

                @NoApostrophePlurals: Wow thanks, I ordered two pairs for $155 AUD delivered 👍🏻

                  @beebul: No worries! What are you using the two to connect to TV? Still deciding which device to use to connect to a dumb TV

                  • beebul on 27/04/2020 - 08:45

                    @NoApostrophePlurals: Ah good point, my main TV is new so has BT, but the others don't. I think I have a Headphone>Bluetooth sender somewhere. Will dig out and test with some other headphones.
