Currently, the truth is that AirPods are a bestseller by Apple, having become one of the most popular headphones on the market for everyone. However, the truth is that every day they have more competition, taking into account that alternative companies tend to launch similar products.
And, apparently, recently it would have been the case of Sony, only that something similar happens to what already happened with Samsung's Galaxy Buds in their day, and it is that although it is true that the concept is similar, the design of the headphones is completely different, making it a great alternative For those of you who don't like current AirPods.
This is the new Sony WF-1000XM3 headphones
On this occasion, as we mentioned, the headphones in question have followed the line of the AirPods and the Galaxy Buds, taking into account that the headphones work in a similar way, and that they also all incorporate a case that gives them battery using wireless charging. Nevertheless, Sony like Apple has also included some differentiating details, which will make some rethink the purchase of AirPods.
Firstly, these headphones feature the technology Noise canceling Sony's own, which makes music playback limited to it thanks to the noise cancellation they offer, so if you want you will be able to focus exclusively on your music, series, movie or any type of multimedia content you are listening, thanks to integrated HD QN1e processor.
In addition, Sony also promises exceptional sound quality for these headphones, as They also have DSEE HX technology, which is responsible for transforming the audio files in high definition so that you do not miss any detail, and a 6mm driver unit, which will allow you to listen to absolutely everything with the highest quality.
Moreover, the headphones also include a new Bluetooth chip, thanks to which the connections will be faster and everything will be played simultaneously on both headphones, maintaining the same quality. Similarly, if you have Apple computers, you probably prefer AirPods in this regard, taking into account that allow you to pair them quickly.
As far as battery is concerned, from Sony indicate that with each charge the WF-1000XM3 have about 6 hours of autonomy, but to that we must also add that, supposedly, with the case in question you can get about 24 hours of autonomy, although logically you will also have to add the pauses to charge them. Still, it is also true that Sony promises not to make you wait too long, considering that thanks to fast charging with 10 minutes in the case you can enjoy up to 90 minutes of autonomy.
On the other hand, as far as intelligence is concerned, saying that these headphones also have gestures, similar to AirPods, so if you remove one of them, the playback will stop, and will continue when you put it back. In addition, they also have the ability to quickly invoke the voice assistant, but in this case from Sony they only talk about Google Assistant, so it is assumed that Siri is limited only to the AirPods because it is also from Apple.
As far as aesthetics are concerned, as you may have seen, they have a somewhat classic design but at the same time it is still quite robust and professional. Further, They are available in two different colors to suit your tastes: black and silver.
Availability and price
Apparently, these Sony WF-1000XM3 will go on sale officially on August 9. However, in case you are interested, say that Sony WF1000XM3-...you can now pre-purchase through Amazon if you wish »/]. As for the price, this time it seems that in Spain they will cost $250, although a few months after they go on sale it would be expected that they would reduce the price somewhat.
Without a doubt, the concept that Sony has created is quite interesting and in fact I think that they far exceed the prices. Now, if they cost € 250 I doubt that they will sell well ... or at least for now
Yes, but well, we'll see how they sell in the future. It is still an increasingly popular market in which little by little there are more options, and Sony tends to have good results in terms of audio despite the prices precios
