Local stock, direct from Amazon AU.

These have mostly the same features as the WH-1000XM3 (LDAC, touch controls, phone App etc) just with weaker noise-cancelling.

The reviews I have read / watched state the WH-H900N (hear on 2) have superior ANC compared to this WH-XB900N.
These are specifically more for those who like “Extra-Bass”.

  • Touch controls
  • Bluetooth 4.2 with SBC, AAC, aptX, aptX HD, LDAC.
  • Ambient-mode

  • How do these compare with QC35 or PXC 550?

    • Bose QC35 competes directly with Sony XM3.
      Regarding PXC 550 I think overall it will be a more balanced sound compared to XB900N, with XB900N having lots of bass they really are for different consumers.

  • As it was mentioned by OP, you should be able to get the "h.ear on 2" for a similar price as the "h.ear on 3" has been released. I have a set and they are fantastic for both sound quality and ANC.

    • +1

      Yes for a more balanced sound + superior ANC the h.ear on 2 (WH-N900N) has been as cheap as $224 Delivered here.

      And if you click the link, red (orangey pink) is currently $229 Delivered.
