How do you like the WH-1000xm3’s?

I think they’re a really dumb pair of headphones considering the fact that they automatically connect to either my phone or laptop at random and I have to reconnect them by holding the power button for 5 seconds every time to switch between laptop and phone.

Despite this, the sound quality is pretty good... but it still doesn’t justify how relatively dumb these pair of headphones are.

I like them quite a bit, haven't run into any issues like that. I use them with my phone 95% of the time so switching devices isn't a big deal for me.

The airpods do provide a better experience when it comes to connecting and switching between devices (at least apple devices).

What makes me mad about the Sony headphones: they can’t be used as a microphone when connected via a cable.
