Sony WF-1000XM3 ANC Truly Wireless Earbuds on sale again:
select seller ship & sold by amazon.ca
Silver color is $198, black for $199.99

Heard Bose QC buds will be on sale before Mother’s day, not sure about price
thinking to get the Bose for ANC, but it does not support multiple device, and right/left are on primary/secondary mode…

Sony can be used separately, and connect to 2 devices, but seems ANC are inferior than Bose…



Amazon product: Sony WF-1000XM3 Industry Leading Noise Canceling Truly Wireless Earbuds, Silver
Customer Reviews:
I own several pairs of really high-end (and expensive) headphones and in-ear monitors (IEMs), but have been unable to carry them with me when moving around due to size and weight (and the fear of damage of loss). Since I tried the original Air Pods I have been looking for wireless IEMs that give me the audio quality I want on the move, with the comfort I need for hours-long listening, and noise cancellation for office hums and buzzes or train noise. I have about a half dozen wireless earphones I have tried and disliked for one reason or another in my closet, but now I have tried these Sony WF-1000XM3s I am a happy boy! | The Sony earpods are available in two colours that I am aware of; I bought the silver because it didn’t look as obvious as the black (your mileage may vary). They come with a charging carry packet that charges with the supplied USB-C cable, a set of six ear pads (plus the two already on the earbuds), and some documentation. It’s a nicely packaged product, and after downloading the free app from the Apple Store, I started in listening. The earbuds twist in for a tighter fit, and I had to downsize them after a week’s first listening to get a better seal, but the supplied ear tips are soft and easy to swap. Gestures on the earbuds control functions, which take all of about five minutes to get comfortable with. | There’s two aspects to these Sony earbuds that stand out for me: audio quality and noise reduction. The noise reduction is controllable and quite effective, as long as the seal on the ear pads is tight (otherwise noise leaks in, obviously). As to the audio quality, when commuting or at the office I do most of my listening from satellite radio, or from lossless FLAC files on my iPhone. Of course, the lossy streaming of satellite radio is not where near the quality of the FLAC files, but both sound really good on the Sony earbuds. I compared the Sonys to some of my expensive IEMs in my living room, and there, critically listening, the Sony is simply not as good as the IEMs I tried, but keeping in mind the IEMs cost ten times the price of the Sony earbuds, there’s nothing embarrassing about that. I also compared these Sonys to my older Apple Air Pod, and like the Sony audio quality much, much more. I have yet to try the latest generation of Air Pods, so can’t speak about them in comparison, but now I won’t be buying the Air Pods at all! | I am really happy and pleased with these Sony earbuds. They are not cheap, bvut they are not expensive either (compared to some IEMs on the market). I use these Sonys almost every day and am delighted with the sound and the battery life. Definately recommended. | Follow-up: I have now compared these Sonys to the new Air Pod and the Sony wins in terms of sound quality by a considerable margin. Also, to answer peoples questions about fit, the interchangeable tips should allow you to customize the fit for your needs. I end up using a different size tip in each ear for a perfect fit and to hold them in place when exercising. I still love these Sonys, and use them far more than my ten-times-the-price IEMs.
