The noise canceling is easily as good as the Bose equivalent.

I started to get the BOSE just because every serious Audiophile recommended them,,,, UNTIL this headset came

The Bose are so much more comfortable

Not as comfortable as Bose

Then I wonder maybe the bose are the better

I would say it is better than most of the Bose Headphones like the QC35.Sonic Capability:

The Sony reviews said they sounded great and had excellent build quality, but they weren't as comfortable as the bose and for $50 more they might not be worth it

This became distracting, I don't remember my Bose having a white noise.

The Bose doesn't support AptX (if that is important to you)

I know that for me, the Bose are more comfortable all around, even though I have to wiggle the ear cups a little to get my ears in.

Fit: the ear cups are not as comfortable as the Bose and thus loosely fit around the ears.3

Sound quality is indeed better than Bose, but not nearly as good as B&W P7 wireless (the two main competitors)

The Bose QC 35 and the Senn PXC 550 are absolutely amazing

Ive had the bose QC 35ii for almost a year now and absolutely love them

These really look cheap and flimsy, but the Bose QC 35 looked even worse

they best the Bose QC35 except: if you want to use them for NC only...they shut off automatically after 5 minutes unless BT paired and active

The Sony outperform the Bose

I probably would since I've heard the Bose with and without and prefer the additional input signalling.

I was concerned that the Sony might not be quite as comfortable as the Bose, but I have been wearing these everyday since I received them (about 4 days ago), and I forget that I even have them on!The only

The Sony's also blow Bose out in terms of functions

Here's how it shakes:What Sony has done better than Bose:-Styling is better, cleaner, more modern

Even though the Bose are much more comfortable, the ear cup is smaller.

The Bose Are Really Good

Overall, I prefer the Bose QC35.

I got the Bose 35 and liked them until they gave me a really bad pressure headaches and my tinnitus got worse

Even it's more expensive, but based on a lof of good reviews, I gave it a try instead of Bose.+Great sound qualityGreat controlGreat features (even I didn't use all of them)Noise cancelling is as good as bose, if not better

If the Bose would have also supported AptX that would have made my buying decision harder

I own both and loved the Bose until I came across this Sony.

The Bose seem to excel with Bluegrass, Country, Classical, anything where a lot of midrange can be appreciated, but can really overwhelm some music such as Punk or Hardcore with too much of said midrange

I also discovered that the USB port on my monitor will not charge the Sony's while it does charge the Bose just fine.

COMFORT: 9/10almost as comfortable as bose qc

The noise cancelling was amazing, as good as the Bose or better

To my ears, the Sony is comparable to the Bose in noise cancelling, but if I had to choose between the two, the Bose is a little more effective in my opinion.

If you are buying headphones for a plane, the Bose are the winners... stop shopping and just get them

The overall sound quality of the headphones is better than the Bose's.- The build quality of the Sony's makes the Bose's feel like a toy by comparison.

Well the Bose got returned one day after owning these Sony's

Sound Quality (Bose Wins):I ran these up against my Bose Quiet Comfort 15 Noise Cancelling Headphones and there was simply no comparison, the Bose were superior in audio quality.

These match or exceed Bose on noise canceling, and sound noiticably better than the Bose - in my opinion

the Bose was more comfortable and had a great noise cancelation, however the design was uglier and the sound wasn't crisp and nice

And just because the Bose seem to excel with Bluegrass and Classical, I'm not saying the sound quality is necessarily better than the Sony even in those categories

I loved my Bose headphones and traveled the world with them logging tens of thousands of miles with them traveling from Alaska to Romania

Good for use at home, tried them in short flight once, I have to say the noise cancelling ability is not as good as Bose QC series (i have a QC25 and QC20 which is the best noise cancelling in flight headphone in my opinion).

The Sony sounds much better than the Bose QC35 and slightly better than the Sennheiser PXC-550, while cancelling out noise as well as the Bose and better than the Sennheiser

I almost gave these a 4 star because while they are comfortable, they just don't fit my rather small head as well as the Bose.

I dropped my bose headphones more than a few times and they still work like a champ

the ever popular Bose NC headphones and decided these had the features I wanted

The noise cancelling is right there with the best of the best (Bose QC35—I love them), and the soundstage and definition these 1000Xs present is simply breathtaking

The Bose are simply fantastic if you want mind blowing noise cancellation and great sounding music.

Some have argued that the Bose are more comfortable, I personally do not see much difference

I can put up with a fit that is 90% as good as the Bose for this.

Hoewever, the Bose are more comfortable

The noise canceling was nearly as good as Bose but what really sold me were the added features

The Bose are exceptionally comfortable

The Bose are so dang comfortable that I don't think I will use the Sony's.

My opinion, only die hards that believe Bose can do no wrong will choose those ear phones over these.

I'll be buying Bose noise cancelling from now one, the sound will be worse, but at least the customer service, warranty, and durability will be excellent.

This suck so much when it comes to sound wuality...get yourself some bose if thats what you care about

Not as good as Bose

Noise canceling might not be as good as Bose

I love Sony as a brand but these headphones are not as good as the market leader (Bose QC 35) overall.

Yes, the Bose QC35 is lighter but the weight doesn't bother me

MAYBE the bose are a little better for a livingroom full of "normal" activity

The Sony's are not nearly as comfortable as the Bose, though, they’re not terrible and should work okay for most everyone, so that’s

The noise cancelling is great (almost as good as Bose QuietComfort 35 Wireless Headphones, Noise Cancelling - Black) and it's quite comfy

SQ in particular is of course subjective, but it's something I care about and the Bose SQ just came across as empty and hollow - almost as if it was all mids with no strength in even moderate lows and highs

The Bose were the most comfortable

The BOSE sounded more unnatural / boomy (not pleasant with volume up) with the bass (the SONY you can jack up the volume to

Bottom line, if you are looking to get some NC BT headphones for music, I don't recommend Bose in any case whatsoever

weather.-They are on the heavy side, I much prefer BOSE QC35 for this.-The clumping force causes my ears to hurt

Noise-canceling works GREAT, better than the Bose, and is not as affected by an air vent blowing on you as much as the Bose are, so that’s a huge Sony win.

I have these as well as the Bose QC35 headphones

The Bose are awesome, super comfy, battery life is good, and the sound decent

, in my opinion this is better, the Bose caused me headaches for some reason, I love all the noise cancellation levels this offers

5-Stars, no b*llshit, decent price, I love them.

B&O attempted the same capacitive touch technology on the H7 and failed miserably
