I really like the Sony 1000x m2 because they have the best active noise cancellation on the market right now and in general I like so many NC headphone line up period but I know choosing between the 1000 XM - here on - xB 950 n1 n CH 700 ends can get a little confusing because they each have their own pros and cons so today we're going to break down Sony's an ANC headphone line up so you can choose the right ANSI headphones for you just so we're clear this isn't a full review on either these headphones I'm just trying to point out the most important differences between them so I can hope you a purchase decision if you want to learn more about either of these headphones then watch their full reviews the sony whch 700 ends are the newest and most affordable anc headphones here retailing for one $99.99 the sony MDR XP 950 n ones or the oldest headphones here in retail for two $49.99 the sony here on tuesday till four to $99.99 and are a few months younger than the 1000 x and twos which were released in the fall of 2017 and retail for three $49.99 if you want to pick either of these headphones up I'll have links in the description below and if you use the links it really helps out the channel check them out because Sony headphones routinely go on sale so you might get lucky first let's get some simple button points things out of the way all for these headphones charge via on my curious B port and I'm shocked that not even the 700 ends which are the newest headphones here use a USB C port but all for these headphones have an easy to reach 3.5 mm audio jack which is good news for my audio files out there who might want to get a better quality audio cable for their headphones and they can all be used passively but only the Sony 1000 x m2 comes included with a hard shell carrying case which is a must if you're going to be traveling or commuting a lot with these headphones whereas the here on - and XP 950 n ones come included with carrying pouches the Huron twos come included with a body color matching polyester carrying pouch which is pretty durable and good at repelling water whereas the carrying pouch included with the XPS is made of a kind and it's not as durable and the 700 ends don't come with a carrying case or pouch at all but still I suggest you invest in a hard shell carrying case regardless regarding build quality in general sony does a really good job of packing in technology and features into their headphones but their build quality isn't spectacular all for these headphones have a stainless steel headband plastic body panels and synthetic leather on the ear cups of headband but the plastic used on the 700 ends and XP 950 enones is textured whereas the plastic used on the here on 2 and 1,000 exempt you is completely smooth the synthetic leather used on the 1000 xm2 here on - and XPS all feel the same whereas the synthetic leather on the 700 ends doesn't feel as nice now I've had the 1000 X M - since they first came out and they are my daily drivers and I haven't had any cracking issues under the headband which was a big problem with the previous 1000 X's so either these headphones should be just fine if you're mindful of them when it comes to comfort all four of these headphones fit very differently but without a doubt the most comfortable headphones here are the here on tools and the 1000 X M shoes are of very close second but they're both big head approved as in if you have a bigger hell like me they should fit you just fine and they aren't going to crush your head like the Bowers and Wilkins px or the school can be crushers but the human tools are the most comfortable headphones here because of their ear cup design there's the Rooneys ear cups here and they in case your ears and since so little padding actually makes contact with your skin overheating isn't an issue but the here on Tues aren't as low profile as the 1000 X and choose they do stick out a bit but the ear cups on the 1000 X and twos are a little more cramped and says they have a little more padding in contact with your skin don't might overheat or if you have larger ears then don't might rest on your earlobes in third place or the 700 ends because they do fit a little snug but your ear cups are very similar to the here on Tues they're roomy and there isn't too much padding in contact with your skin and then last place is the XP 950 n1 they also fit a little snug like the 700 ends but they're not unbearable the reason the XP 950 and ones you are in the last place is because of the sheer amount of padding they have since there's so much padding in contact with your skin they will overheat very quickly if you're walking around with them on or if you're in a warm room and these ear cups will rest on your earlobes and not to mention the XP stick out like you can actually see them in your peripheral vision regarding battery life the 700 ends outlast all of the other headphones here with ANC and Bluetooth turned on and with the volume set at 50% the 700 ends the average 37 hours playback time under the same conditions the 1000 XM to average 32 hours of playback time and the here on to average 27 hours of playback time but the xB 950 anyones have the worst battery life here averaging just 18 hours of playback time with ANC Bluetooth and a extra bass feature turned on all four these headphones also have a wireless range of about 30 feet and then really suffer from any type of connection issues which is good and since the latency on either these headphones isn't that bad either these headphones will be just fine for watching videos but all for these headphones can only be connected to one device at a time which does suck if your power user I just feel these headphones should be connected to at least two devices at a time all four of these headphones have active noise cancellation and for the most part as you go up in price I found the anc performance does it improve but the main reason I like Sony's any NC technology so much is because they don't cause me any headaches or have any cabin pressure like the bose qc25 the 700 ends have the worst anc performance here and it's really only worth using when used on a bus ride commute because it does a better job of blocking out constant low-frequency sounds then it does blocking out chatter the anc on the XP 950 enones is a little better but they also have a lot of passive noise isolation because of all that padding the anc on the here on two should be good enough for most people but if ANC is your top priority and the 1000 XM to you is the way to go noise cancelling with the 1000 xm2 is you can also go in and calibrate the ANC so you can better adapt to your surroundings and this isn't just marketing fluff there have been multiple times where I've gone through the calibration process while traveling and noticed a real performance difference also since the ANC microphones are on the 1000x m2u is a little recessed under the synthetic leather on the ear cups they managed to pick up the least amount of wind noise when walking around the city on a windy day whereas since the ANC microphones on all of the other headphones are so exposed you might hear on sound here and there the 1000 x m2 is also a choose how much ambient sound he will like to live in and this feature is good because you still be able to hear your surroundings if you're walking around the city or if you're working in office you can still hear if someone calls your name the here on Tuesday also have an ambient sound mode but it's a set amount regarding sound quality let's focus on the 700 n here on 2 and 1000 xn 2 for a minute they all sound good but the 700 ends don't have the same soundstage or an instrument separation as they here on to you or 1000 X empty but they do have a surprising amount of bass with your size when it comes to the sound quality between the 1000 x m2 and here aren't you no matter how hard I try I can't find any noticeable differences between the two but definitely there is a sound quality improvement when choosing between the 700 n and the 2 more premium headphones and through Sony's headphones app you can adjust EQ on either of these 3 headphones so you can dial them in and make them sound however you like depending on the type of music you listen to but listening to the same music with the XP 950 anyones is a completely different experience neither the other three headphones come close to achieving as the name implies the XP 950 and ones are all about bass that's what the XP stands for and they're specifically targeted to people who listen to rap hip-hop EDM and so on and the base on the XP 950 anyones doesn't sound artificial or forced the bass is also its own entity so it's not going to muddle or overpower the rest of the song what it does is that it adds an extra dimension to your music they're going to rattle your head and they're going to make you feel like you're actually at a concert and you can also go in and adjust how much extra bass you want through Sony's app and obviously you can also use them with the extra bass feature turn off for a more traditional headphone listening experience but what I do find odd is that you can't fully adjust see EQ on the XP 950 and ones like you can on the other three headphones for the most part I like how they sound but there are times I want to bring them it down a little bit but now let's talk about how you go about controlling music playback on either these headphones both the 700 n and xB 950 and ones have a falling marker and music playback switch combo which I really like because they're both very easy to find and use to hear on to you and 1000 extent to you or both using touch pads now they aren't the only headphones on the market to use touch pads but they are arguably the best and most accurate but what I really like about both of these headphones is that they both have quick attention so if you fully cover the touchpad the headphones were lower your music and pump in all of the ambient sound so you can talk to someone without taking your headphones off and when you uncover the touchpad the headphones will go back to blocking out all of the sound and playing your music different color temperatures for that lighting we have launched security lights red security lights and finally a small button point thing to take note of is that the 1000 xm2 here on - and 700 n will be getting Google assistant integration in the near future like the bose qc25 series - through a software update since the XP 950 n ones are the oldest headphones here they won't be getting this feature and also feel the XP 950 N ones are the next pair of headphones here that will be getting a hardware refresh since they are a part of sony's MDR lineup instead of their newer lwase lineup I just don't know what so which of these headphones should you choose obviously if you're on a tighter budget get to 7-under ends but still they're low profile design stupid long battery life and ANC performance make them a great pair of budget ANC headphones for commuting I really enjoy the XP 950 and ones but they are made for a very specific type of person who absolutely loves bass but I wouldn't get the XP 950 and ones if I needed a pair of headphones for commuting there Big Show they're harder to store in a bag and since overheating is an issue you're going to get sweaty ear cups if you walk around with them on even though I love the Sony 1000 XM - I think most people will be better off with the here on - because of their slightly lower price point and much more comfortable ear cup design you're getting the majority of the features found on the 1,000 XM - but the 1000 XM 2 is still the better option if you want a sleeker design and if you want the best agency performance on the market right now but if Sony is listening we really want to see USB type-c on these headphones improved quick charging and we want to be able to connect these headphones to more than one device at a time if you made it this far I guess you enjoyed the video so hit that like button and get subscribed it helps out more than
