Refurbished Sony ult-wear noise cancelling headphones for $220 with code and free delivery, pretty good deal by the looks as they are normally $350 at JB, etc.
Getting a pair to replace my dying WH1000mx3s I use for the gym.
These fold though, XM5 does not.
I wasn't going to copy and paste every aspect of the comparison. That's why I put the link.
hmmm so the ANC is same? really need on for upcoming trip (flight)
An update destroyed the ANC of my XM3 headphones. Not feeling confident in the brand. I thought that old chestnut of planned obsolescence by update was more a fruit phone thing.
found on reddit probably help someone
The equaliser makes a world of difference.
Try setting equaliser to the following values: +7 : +4 : +6 : +4 : +7 and clear bass at +8
any review on the multipoint on this thing? 2 devices on the same time ? for example both playing youtube, i can pause one and start the other one, vice versa without touching bluetooth connection setting?
only 1 audio stream can be play at the same time.
if you stop audio from one device it will take 5-10 seconds for it to switch to the other audio stream.
if one device gets a call it will override the audo stream
if one device gets a call it will override the audo stream
What if playing audio from phone and get a call from laptop ms team app or zoom? Will it prioritise the call too?
Damn 10 secs is slow
I have these and love these for bass, however xm5s are still my favs.
because of? how about ANC have you tried/compared them in a very noise environment like planes?
xm5s have better call quality, better NC, better neutral sound and have more compact fit.
How much better is the NC?
I found these on TGGC for a similar price and got it priced matched in store about a month back.
Spending that much money for a refub is a brainer
Have you bought sony refub before? They aee different from other normal refub. Especially those refub laptop with intel gen 8th
