According to Sony’s tradition of a new generation of noise-reducing headphones every year, the new M3 was released as scheduled in September this year, and the QC35 II was a year earlier than it was, which is equivalent to the release time of the M2. The current price of the two is about 350 US dollars. If you choose among these three models, I would recommend the priority of Sony. Because of the annual “new products must sell old products”, Sony’s discount is very strong. Very cost-effective.
1, accessories
Case
Bose’s shell is slightly lighter, but Sony’s scratch resistant fabric body and its internal compartment are designed to be more scientific.
Ports
Finally, M3 upgraded to Type-C interface, the so-called Type-C is no need to consider the positive and negative plug-in of the charging port, although many bloggers have been using the Micro USB port before the Tucao District, this upgrade is also good applause. In fact, this is completely a move of wool on the sheep. How many RMB gimmicks are ports? You must be joking. I think the M2’s charging port is better because it can be charged with a line with an Android phone. Instead, it is not convenient to change the line back and forth. Bose is still a Micro USB interface.
Audio Jack
Bose 2.5mm < M3 3.5mm is another useless parameter comparison.
Included charging cable
M3 is better but very short.
Included audio cable
Both are short/cheap/thin. M3 can be a little better, but both are down a grade above M2.
2, main attractions
Although QC35 is not good at sony in black technology, it has a classic design, good comfort, and high quality, so it lasts for a long time. The QC35’s earmuffs are more spacious, while the M2 is slightly narrower. Sony has suffered from the “headband cracking issue” in its first generation, so in the subsequent design, the design of the head beam was especially paid attention to, and the flexibility of the headphone body was enhanced. The upgraded M2 has withstood the one-year quality test. “after a year of heavy usage, my M2 had held up just fine.” M3 is even better, not only quality but also unscathed after a strong bend, M3`s new headband design is much more low profile/thinner than Bose&M2, much less breaking when you flex the M3`s headband, the ear cups swivel much smoother and tolerances are much higher.
In addition, M3’s aesthetic design is also well received, M3 much more minimalist design to them cause of their muted color, soft touch ear cups and wires have been nicely hidden away. And QC35 design is more industrialized (industrial look): They look like they’re completely made out of metal but they are not. Their screws and hinges are completely exposed.
In terms of wearing comfort, the QC35 is slightly better than Sony. I found that European and American male bloggers have a common obsession with headphones. The earmuffs (padding/ear cups) must be deeper, but this is a bad option for girls. Here, the little brother compares the feeling of wearing the QC35 to wearing your fav oversized hoodie, and wearing the M3 feels like wearing a form-fitting tracksuit, you have room to move around, but the cut is much slimmer. The ergonomic design makes it comfortable to wear, and the faux leather earmuffs are also relatively high-end (luxurious and serious, the lambskin used on everyone’s home). Summarize the assessment that this paragraph has no real effect: no matter which one is chosen. But if you have larger ears or ears that stick out a lot, you’ll still be better off going with the Bose QC35`s.
Also to be said is the contest between sony (although the generation is stronger than the first generation).
In terms of weight, extended wear is not a problem.
M3: 255g / M2: 275g, the difference between the two is a pair of earrings, can be ignored.
For the general pursuit of technology otaku, M3 increased the earmuff space, “much spacious ear cups/much less padding against your head, which means overhitting is much less of an issue.” So the heat is no problem, the headphones also It’s even more ugly.
3, Tech specs
Battery life / fast charging:
Bose claimed battery life: 20h
Fast charging: 15min=2.5h (a dead battery →2.5h playback time)
M3 claimed battery life: 30h
Fast charging:10min=5h (with ANC turned on)
[ANC: active noise cancellation]
[active noise reduction]
You can always squeeze out a little bit of battery life with ANC turned off.
Bluetooth connectivity
Stable connections /don’t cut off. Nowadays, Bluetooth technology is generally excellent, and there is very little instability. And this level of headphones can no longer be disconnected, right? However, in order to avoid this kind of problem when listening to lossless music, Sony’s app has a sound quality priority/connection priority option.
Latency
“Both aren’t the best for youtube videos.” There will be some delay when brushing the tubing video, but unfortunately, the domestic party can’t get the tubing in addition to the scientific Internet (manual dog head)
Connecting device
The QC35 can connect two devices at the same time and switch at will, while Sony can only connect one at a time.
