So yay or nay on Dolby’s first consumer product?
Check out David Carnoy’s favorite noise-cancelling headphone of the year so far, the Sony WH-1000XM3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBm0z0fREF8
Great Sound But $$$😅
$600 micro USB, Bluetooth only, not “surround sound”…why?
Paying a lot just for the brand
I really want to know what iPhone case that is and if it comes in different colors
I like the headphones on the ear and they look nice and I like the fact that it comes with a cased
$600 USD, and a microUSB, hard choice here for the minus of technology advancement, i’d stick with £329 Sony WH-1000XM3- USB Type‑C connecter, and better sound quality bang on for the buck
Look up the Smyth Realiser 16, that’s the real deal for true Surround replication.
What about latency ? Bluetooth headphones are not there in terms of zero latency. So , coming from Dolby I was expecting a new way to connect with the most high fidelity to the content we’re watching.
Why does everything need an app to control. So annoying…
I think some movie theaters should have options for headphones, so you can be completely immersed in a film. Like a headphone jack in an armrest or something. Also, you can block out all the noise from other people in the theater.
as soon as he said $600 headphone the video was paused.
im not a fan of gimmicks but these are honestly really interesting
…that price!!!!
So, it virtualizes the sound. How does something like this compare to using a premium NC headphone like the new Sony WH-1000XM3 using dolby atmos for headphones on windows? This could be an interesting product for me for sure.
Hmm I might get those headphones
$600? What kind of user will purchase it?
It’s expensive for $600. That’s all
woww, too high tech, and i dont own an apple tv, still $600 , very steep price for us filipinos!
Not for $600 I could see 3:50 maybe but it better be giving me Dolby Atmos the directional stuff like some crazy sounding stuff for $600.
You lost me at $600. Thats just crazy
please! $600 for BT virtualized stereo? This isn’t even close to HT territory. You want to make something great? Give us headphones with multiple drivers, and a truehd/dtshd/atmos processing box with HDMI 2.0; 2.1 even better.
More headphones should use a charging dock
$600.….… a PS4 cost less than that and it is more fun.… $600 can buy a nice Hifi system that you can enjoy music and not be bother the straps…
It’s better that they don’t look expensive. Especially outdoors.
go get sony !!
This Seems Perfect for the Television side of Things.
Films that heavily relies on Audio/Visuals
Deeply Immersive Interactive Experiences (video games)
And that’s all I could think of, I would love this headset.
How about comfort level??? Can you wear these for 3 hours without any tenderness on the ears????
Still 600$ is costly
$600 and 10 hours of battery life? GTFO Dolby
So as I look around the web no reviewer is going to admit this thing is overpriced. Just because dolby says this isnt meant to be used outside the home doesn’t mean it has no competition. Sony 1000XM3, bose QC35, and Surface headphones are all products that compete with this, and all cost 250 bucks less.
Let’s slow down for a second and assess this rationally:
- Micro USB rather than USB C in late 2018 (bordeline 2019)
- A carrying “case” that’s actually a flimsy non-protective carrying bag
- 10 meagre hours of battery life (and that’s just Dolby’s estimate — it may be less in real-life usage)
- Only 2 hours of battery life for 15 minutes of charging (Sony WH-1000XM3: 5 hours for 10 minutes)
- The company itself claims it’s only for home use (thus implying real-world limitations and also making this product appealing to only a very niche group of people. Admittedly, most people purchase their noise-cancelling headphones for use “on the go”)
- Noise-cancellation far from industry-leading as per reviews (Sony & Bose run the ANC show as of now)
- Quite heavy: exceed 300g — I cannot comment on comfort since I haven’t tested them.
- Did I mention micro USB in 2019?
- $600 just because they’re “Dolby” and think they can get away with slapping a ridiculous price on their first headphones despite the aforementioned shortcomings.
I’ll stick with the Sony WH-1000XM3 & Bose QC35II (I have both and recommend both — the 1000XM3 I’d recommend over the QC35II for everything except microphone quality).
Micro usb!? WTF
Lets hope generation 2 comes sooner rather than later. Perfect for a fire station or at home where you still need to hear things.
Hell yay!
im good with my nuraphone
$599 for headphones that only gets around 10 ‑15 hours battery life. Not worth it.
this is a mega flop at $600.00
Ill take my old school HD600s from sennheiser instead of these guarantee the sound couldnt come close lol!
Definitely not worth the price. (Overpriced)
Still better than Beats
