Sony WI-1000X review for Dilraba Dilmurat: probably the best neck-hanging wireless headset with the best noise reduction effect

More and more smartphones are beginning to cancel the 3.5mm headphone jack, and more and more consumers are starting to choose to buy a suitable wireless headset for themselves. However, what kind of product can be truly called excellent and how to achieve a better noise reduction experience on wireless headsets have become one of the important criteria for professional users to judge.

Previously, in the camp of wireless headphones, Bose QC35 was clearly the leader in noise reduction performance. It was not until the emergence of Sony MDR-1000X that its benchmark status was shaken.

For today's ordinary consumers who are more receptive to neck-hanging wireless headphones, Bose QC30 is also a leading product in terms of noise reduction performance, but this time it is Sony that comes to disrupt the situation.

With Sony officially confirming Dilraba Dilmurat, who is popular among male students, as the new spokesperson for its audio products, the Sony WI-1000X, which is the same model as Dilraba Dilmurat, will also target products like Bose QC30 to see which one is the better neck-hanging wireless noise-cancelling headset.

The clever product details design and random accessories also make you feel conscientious

Although Sony has always had industry-leading industrial design capabilities, there is not much room for improvement in a neck-hanging wireless headset, so whether it is the packaging or the shape of the headset itself, the Sony WI-1000X is not much different from your impression of neck-hanging headphones.

But this does not mean that there are no highlights in the product's appearance. For example, the Sony WI-1000X we experienced has a dazzling champagne gold color. If you have seen Dilraba Dilmurat wearing it, you will know how beautiful it is.

In addition, Sony WI-1000X also has a clever cable collection structure, which can press the headphone cable into the groove of the neck hanging part to quickly and neatly store the headphone cable.

Sony WI-1000X still has Sony's usual fine manufacturing process. Whether it is the neck hanging part or the earplug part, the materials with different touches are combined just right.

Coupled with the conspicuous SONY Logo on the surface of the headphones and the meticulous polishing of various button labels, you can feel the sound of faith when you get the Sony WI-1000X.

It is particularly worth mentioning that in terms of accessories, the Sony WI-1000X not only comes with an additional 6 different sizes of replaceable earplugs and a storage bag, but also provides a USB charging cable, a 3.5mm cable and an airplane adapter, which not only allows the wireless headphones to be turned into wired ones in seconds, but also can be used uninterruptedly during the flight.

LDAC transmission + ring iron design noise reduction experience is even smarter

Bluetooth headsets are always subject to discussions about sound quality. In terms of Bluetooth connection, Sony WI-1000X still supports the LDAC transmission protocol led by Sony, which can provide data transmission efficiency about 3 times that of ordinary Bluetooth connections. In wireless conditions, it allows you to enjoy sound quality close to the Hi-Res standard when listening to Hi-Res Audio music.

In addition, Sony WI-1000X is also equipped with a fully digital amplifier S-Master HX to achieve a wider bandwidth to reduce noise and distortion. At the same time, the addition of the digital sound enhancement engine DSEE HX can express high-frequency signals and tail sounds that are often lost in audio compression processing, giving the sound a more natural sense of space.

Also noteworthy is the dynamic-iron design used inside the Sony WI-1000X earbuds. The built-in 9mm driver unit focuses on presenting bass and vocals, while the dynamic-iron unit is dedicated to producing clearer treble. The two driver units work together to provide a strong guarantee for the good sound of the headphones.

We know that Sony products are often inseparable from black technology, and the black technology of Sony WI-1000X focuses on noise reduction.

For environmental noise, Sony WI-1000X uses DNC digital noise reduction technology, which uses a software engine combined with dual noise sensors to form high-precision reverse sound waves to offset the noise, and then uses a digital equalizer to maintain good sound quality after the headphones have achieved noise reduction.

However, if you think that Sony has only preset a conventional single-mode noise reduction setting on its new product, you are wrong. Sony WI-1000X highlights the concept of intelligent noise reduction this time.

For example, during a flight on an airplane, Sony WI-1000X can optimize the noise reduction effect based on the changes in air pressure caused by different altitudes.

From the perspective of daily use, Sony WI-1000X can detect the wearer's activity status through sensors, and then switch to the preset ambient sound or noise reduction solution. It even launches the Headphones Connect APP that matches the headphones on smartphones to meet more personalized user needs.

This means that when you are taking public transportation, the Sony WI-1000X will block background noise as much as possible, but when walking on the street, the headphones will also take into account better music playback while appropriately accepting the surrounding ambient sound to ensure the safety of using the headphones when going out.

You can even adjust the level and direction of the ambient sound you want to hear in the settings of Sony WI-1000X, such as whether the ambient sound you want to receive is mainly concentrated on the left or right side, or choose "Focus on Voice" to focus on hearing voice messages.

Of course, when using Sony WI-1000X, you will hardly miss any important calls and reminders from your mobile phone, because in addition to the selective noise reduction settings of the headphones themselves, the neck hanging position that contacts the user also has a built-in vibration reminder for incoming calls.

A strong competitor in the high-end wireless headset market

Just like after we experienced Sony MDR-1000X before, we felt that Bose QC35’s position was no longer secure.

The Sony WI-1000X, which uses a neck-hanging design, still leads the industry in terms of appearance, craftsmanship, sound quality and noise reduction effects.

On the other hand, the Sony WI-1000X, which is priced at more than 2,000 yuan, is obviously not a high-end product that everyone can accept. But if you are troubled by the fact that your new mobile phone has cancelled the 3.5mm interface and you need to change to a wireless headset, and at the same time you have uncompromising requirements for sound quality and noise reduction experience, then the Sony WI-1000X is undoubtedly one of the ideal choices.
