    which.co.uk seems to say MDR-1000X (56%) is not anywhere near as good as the MDR-100ABN (78%)

    1000x are the superior headphones in performance. Consumer reports are showing such a disparity because of the reported problem with the headband cracking on the 1000x.

    What’s the difference between the 1000x & 1000xm2 are they worth the upgrade?

    Not according to the review. No mention of issues with the headband. Which is a review site, not a consumer reporting site.

    OK I have no idea what that site is but most reviews I have seen put them as the far superior headphones.

    The widespread issues reported everywhere though put me right off.

    I've been looking at the Sony MDR-1000X & Sony 1000XM2 - the 1000x seem to be the better option in reviews for overall performance and not just price wise. My main use would be in work and the gym. The only negative to find is the plastic breaks quite easily which are mentioned above.


    Anyone know if the M2 is more durable?

    I have my mdr-1000x since September. No issues with build quality. Best headphones I've ever owned.

    Great thank you. Hopefully there's a few more here who own a pair and can provide their feedback.

    Would also like to hear some feedback from owners here.


    Will be flying out of Dublin in April, if I picked up a pair of the 1000X in the airport, and the plastic band breaks after some weeks/months of use, would I be entitled to a replacement set/refund?

    Mine seem sturdy enough so far since December but the audio drop out when on the move is annoying me.

    Can you give more detail on what you're doing when it drops out?

    I mainly use them outside on the go, walking home, Dublin bikes, going for lunch etc. Had a jabra and plantronics before these and never happened on either in similar situations albeit on a moto g5 as opposed to a One plus 5 I got around the same time as the headphones.

    I have had a pair for the past 9 or so months. They are excellent, extremely comfortable even while wearing them for 8 hours +. I don't exercise with them though, don't like the bulk of over ear headphones while exercising.
    Battery lasts for yonks too

    I've had mine for 10 months now. Still look and feel the same as when I got them. No sign of cracking or anything else. Can't fault them tbh.
