Sony WH-1000XM3
Before summer 2016, Sony didn’t have a premium pair of noise-cancelling headphones in its arsenal. The WH-1000Xs appeared and won one of our coveted Awards.
A year later, a second-generation model brought with it tweaks that solidified Sony’s new-found noise-cancelling reputation. But even at the time of the WH-1000XM2s’ release, their successor was already in development. The WH-1000XM3s move to analogue amplification, resulting in a significantly improved audio performance over their predecessors, according to Sony.
