Amazon. Despite having been replaced by the newer Sony WH-1000XM4 , the XM3s are still worth your while if you're looking for a set of excellent ANC cans, particularly at this steeply discounted price.

At just AU$250 for the black colour option , these headphones are now 30% off their current retail price of AU$359.

The Sony WH-1000XM3 headphones look almost identical to the latest XM4s, and theyre now available for their lowest price yet on Amazon. Theyre missing a few features found on the newer version, but if youre not fussed and youd rather save some cash, we think opting for the XM3s in black is a good call.

There wasnt a huge aesthetic overhaul between the two generations of Sonys noise-cancelling headphones what separates the newer XM4s from the older
XM3s are added perks such as DSEE Extreme audio upscaling, multipoint pairing and conversation awareness.

To be clear, these are neat, but somewhat niche improvements. DSEE Extreme is an AI-driven process that looks to restore detail from lossy compressed formats, adding some clarity to lower quality formats.

Multipoint pairing allows the headphones to connect to two devices at once, which is handy if you take calls through your headphones while you're
working. Conversation awareness means the XM4s can recognise when youve started speaking, and will automatically pause your music and allow outside noise to filter through.

All told, the small tweaks on the XM4s can deliver a big difference for some, but if those features arent important to you, the XM3s are great and theyre hard to walk past at just AU$250 a pop. Sony WH-1000XM4 vs Sony WH-1000XM3 : is it worth upgrading?
