High-resolution audio playback The Sony 1000XM3 Headphones let you hear those mp3 tunes like you’ve never heard them before. While mp3 compresses the original audio file, compromising quality, Sony’s innovative DSEE HX technology upscales your files, so you can hear every glorious element of the mix, just as the artist intended. Sony’s LDAC audio coding technology transfers three times more data than standard Bluetooth audio, making everything from the vocals to the percussion sound crisp, punchy, and clear.

Huge battery life You’ll never need to make a sudden dash for a power source to hear that album from beginning to end. Sony WH 1000XM3 Headphones feature an internal battery that’ll give you a massive 30 hours of playback time on a single charge. When you do find yourself running low on juice in a hurry, just 10 minutes charging will give you 5 hours battery life – long enough to get you through most of the working day. Personalise your listening experience Take your audio experience one step further with the Sony Headphone Connect app. Available for both Android and iOS, the app offers access to a range of features including Adaptive Sound Control, optimising settings based on your listening behaviour and environment. Tweak the EQ via the app to strike the perfect balance between crisp highs and roaring lows. With touch controls on the earcup, you won’t ever need to remove your WH1000XM3 Headphones to adjust volume or accept an incoming call. And with Google Assistant and Siri built in, you’ll get instant access to all the answers you need, right from your headphones.
