WH-1000XM3 awful microphone quality

nickmeldrum — Thu, 07 Mar 2019 08:18:35 GMT

I have purchased the Mark III WH-1000XM3 and I cannot use it for phone calls.

Every single person I've talked to has complained they can barely hear me and I'm forced to turn the headphones off.

I didn't pay top dollar for very substandard phone calling.

I have reset to factory settings on the headphones and the problem persists.

I am connecting them to an iPhone XS Max and other MUCH CHEAPER bluetooth headsets don't exhibit this problem.

SONY PLEASE HELP ME!

There's so much about this on the internet, but no answer from Sony at all. Shameful service.

Hi Nick,

I would recommend getting in touch with the Sony Support team for further help with this issue here.

Let me know how you get on?

Best wishes,

Sean Mc

And the headphones do not work with a separate high quality microphone plugged in to the jack. It disables the Bluetooth so calls are impossible. Infuriating
