    Title needs updating to show the $128.80 is for the WF1000XM3S … or add the price for the WF1000XM3B, which is $175.20. It's misleading.

    I'm tempted for the xm4, but:
    Long ago I went to JB to check xm3 and at that time felt the plastic quality and ear cup weren't good enough to justify the price. I mean you can poke inside the cup peel alittlr bit the sponge etc etc really not premium at all.

    What you guy think? As the price is premium I expect premium quality like Bose sensheiser etc

    • BargainBoii on 21/03/2021 - 02:27

      I wear mine while doing woodwork and I usually just chuck them in my backpack at the end of the day. (They come with a nice hard case but I don't usually take it with me)

      They've copped a fair bit of abuse but they still literally look brand new.

      Not a mark on them.

      I used to have the Sony hear on 2s but I passed them on to my sister. They were also extremely durable.

      They feel much more solid vs the Bose imo

    TLDR: Bought refurbished XM3 headphones from the Sony eBay store for $203 back in October. It's been 5 months and I've sent them back for repair 3 times. I still don't have working headphones.

    The refurbished products might be faulty returns. I bought a pair of refurbished xm3 headphones for $203 from the Sony eBay store using a deal back in October. It had loud static like someone was blowing into my ear (not the usual ANC sound) when noise cancelling was on so I sent them for repair.

    The original pair was found to be faulty and I got a different pair back. This one was faulty again and just randomly shut off even though it was at 100% battery and could not be turned on for several hours. I sent this pair in for repair and they found no faults and sent it back. It did the same thing again within a day. I ended up driving to the repair centre to show the technicians the problem and they agreed to repair it again. I haven't received them back yet.

    Maybe I just got unlucky but just sharing my experience with the community.

    • snvl on 20/03/2021 - 10:28

      My experience from Sony ebay is 60/40. From 10 purchase I have returned 4 items. Camera and lenses purchases tho.

      I think after 3 repairs you are entitled for full refund, don’t you.

    • chyawala on 20/03/2021 - 10:29

      Think you have six months to claim for refund on PayPal might be the best option.

      Same with mine but with speaker. They tried to keep repairing it after 3x I said no just refund. They refused, ACCC steps up and boom full refund. Never again.
      Think about your 3x repair back and forth time go to post office, petrol, etc plus the whole annoying experience. Probably worth $500

          I just went to the ACCC website submitted all the proofs and time line of all the 3x repairs.

          And weeks later got a call from Sony they are refunding. I almost laughed hard.

        • lonewolf on 20/03/2021 - 17:58

          Actually $175 and a no. of people having issues. 40% chance of issues. for $175…yeah i think that does sound like a bit of a risk.

            @lonewolf: You aren't factoring 8% $20 gift card PLUS first time $30 credit on first time afterpay account if you really want me to work it out for you.

            It's ppl like you who watch everyone else get rich on the markets, just sayin

            But don't let me pressure you into such a high-risk purchase lmfao

            • lonewolf on 20/03/2021 - 18:13

              @FKG: Pretty sure spending money on an item that will depreciate is not the way to get rich, much less if there is a risk attached to the item having issues makes it even less of a rich scheme method….

              The 30$ credit is only for people who havent used it already. The 8% cashback is via shopback, I have had some bad experiences with shopback and their cashback, moreso than cashrewards thats for sure. And Cashback again isnt something i look at as the same as a discount. Because it is not guaranteed to get to you especially with Shopback, as well as even if it does, its about 2-3 months later. And you need to remember / keep track to make sure it is all coming back to you and not forgotten or some other excuse given by the cashback store.

              Dont get me wrong, if you get an item that works then thats pretty cool. But the risks sounds a bit annoying considering for some of these models, on sales can be discounted pretty well as well. I am surprised that sony refurbished does have this many issues, I had hoped it wouldnt. I was tempted to get the Whxm3 as i have a older model but the risks seem to make it sound like i might as well wait a bit till i need one.

                @lonewolf: So in other words, you already increased my afterpay stock price with your previous purchases because you're ineligible for the $30 credit, Cheers bro

                You also don't trust Sony Australia to repair a faulty item, well I guess that means you never buy from random strangers on marketplace lol

                Hint: set a calendar reminder so you redeem your cash in 2 months, not so hard is it?

                Perhaps you want to spend money to make money, get yourself a few tools to save time, make money… On your logic you don't buy anything for extra comfort, to save time or make your life easier because well it depreciates!!! LoL

                Anyway like I said, more for the time savers and winners to buy 🤪

                  @FKG: I bought a pair of XM3's a few months ago. No issues at all. Indiscernible that they were refurbs other than the resealed box as others have mentioned. Wonder if they just gut everything except the headphone drivers and install them into a new shell? All the accessories and case were almost definitely brand new.

    Has anyone tried both the 3’s and 4’s and can compare their sound quality? From what I’ve read the 4’s sound a bit clearer, primarily due to less bass. I mostly listen to rock so would you recommend the 4s based on this? Thanks.

      I haven't tried the XM3s. I have the XM4s and Sennheiser PXC 550-IIs. I listen to a lot of rock too and the XM4s sound really good and are enjoyable to listen to. The noise-cancelling is excellent as well.

        • Chthonic on 21/03/2021 - 06:16

          Probably another stupid question but does the $30 off appear on the eBay checkout? Or does it show up as an option when it takes you to the afterpay page?

      Not sure on cable, but they are a very workable solution. I use them to game, fps, not much competitive use though.

      Note; with this deal i just bought the xm4’s, my xm3’s will stay as my pc, (as i used them on the go with my phone) but now my xm4’s will be phone only,

    AVOID, AVOID .. I bought a pair of XM4's from the Sony Australia 'refurb' shop. Maybe I was just unlucky, but the bluetooth kept disconnecting after 5 minutes or so. Anyway, long story short, the Ebay Sony Australia refurb shop was a complete nightmare to deal with. They made me jump through so many hoops. Poor communication, lots of deliberate heel dragging. I had to get Ebay involved and finally got my refund three months later. I eventually bought a brand new set elsewhere and they are perfect.

  • Black Hole on 21/03/2021 - 07:59

    Why are they so many refurbished units? Sound like bad design or component used in the first place.

    • ialam99 on 21/03/2021 - 15:20

      Yep i think there was a widely reported issue with static when NC was on. I think the issue was resolved subsequently but lot of returns from the initial released units i guess.
