Don't sound nearly as good when used as a passive
Wired pair of headphones
Abrupt motions can break ANC performance
Adaptive sound control technology isn't perfect
It should perform a little better as a headset. Battery isn't replaceable
I found that my own footballs produced thumps and moderatetohigh wind caused audible noise with noise cancelation engaged
No matter how I adjusted the settings. These artifacts are present with all noise cancelation circuits but were a bit more pronounce
Splendid noise-canceling, Great-sounding audio, 30-hour battery life
Hinges are fragile, Ambient sound feature fails at times
There's no two ways about it, the Sony WH-1000XM2 are exceptional business-grade noise-cancelling headphones. They're perfect for long flights or train rides, and not only do they keep sound out incredibly well, they also offer great audio quality. They'r...

Sony's WH-1000XM2 may not be quite as comfortable as Bose's QuietComfort 35 II, but in some respects it's a superior headphone...

Superb noise-cancelling, Great-sounding audio, 30-hour battery life
Hinges are fragile, Touch controls

Great sound quality, class-leading noise cancellation, customisation of modes, comfortable
Automatic mode switching is a little rough
In the WH-1000XM2, Sony has created perhaps the best noise-cancelling over-ear headphones that we've ever tested. Having put in a strong performance in the original guise, the second coming delivers a repeat performance - with a little extra.The M2 adds f...

Abstract: It's rare to see a company make an almost perfect product. It's even rarer to see them improve an almost perfect product. And yet, here we are. Sony's already incredible MDR-1000X wireless, adaptive noise-cancelling headphones got an upgrade earlier this...
I didn't have very long with the Sony WH-1000XM2, but already I have the feeling they've improved upon their predecessors in nearly every way. The noise cancellation and audio performance are at least as good as before, if not better. And there is a load...
Touchpad controls take a little bit of getting used to,
The Sony WH-1000XM2s stick to a tried and trusted recipe that works a treat. They're a superb all-round package that excel in every area. We would willingly have paid every penny of their original premium price tag, so their being cheaper now only heighte...
Great build quality, Convenient touch controls, Great sound quality, Feature-rich companion app, Very good battery life, Effective noise cancellation
Multi-point connection is a compromise, High price,
The Sony WH-1000XM2 is yet another stellar pair of noise cancelling headphones. It takes all the things that made the original MDR-1000X great and adds some useful features, at roughly the same price of around Rs. 30,000. It might not completely beat the...
