Best price on a great set of refurbished headphones. I bought my refurbished set from this same seller on eBay about 3 years ago for $230. They've flown around the world with me and then some. I use them every day and I've had zero (0) issues. They still look and work like new. They're extremely comfortable to wear, they sound awesome and the noise cancelling is legendary. Highly recommended.

The 4s have on ear detection and multi-point, and they probably also officially have better sound quality and noise cancelation, but the big upgrades are the detection and multi-point

I still have the original 1000X and compared with new versions each year.
They added all the bells and whistles, but it's not significant enough to pay the difference.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank MerryCrown7505

if you want to use these for online games, beware; you can't use the microphone and the stereo audio at the same time. Either you get awful mono sound and a microphone, or just stereo audio. To switch between the two, you have to disable the "headset" in the devices menu of your sound control panel.

If I had known this, I would not have bought these.

I got this from Secondipity from a previous deal. The headset was like new, only the packaging had a dent since it was shipped in a bubble envelope. I have the XM2 and XM3. The XM3 has wider earpads, is more comfortable as a result and it has noticeably better ANC. Wish it had multi-device pairing though. That was feature creeped into the XM4.

I upgraded to a used set of these a few months into at-home working last year. My previous set of headphones were Grado SR-60s. I loved the open back for hearing my surroundings; both when I was in the office and now to hear the kids at home. I use these with the ambient feature and it works very well. The earpads do not get too warm compared to the on-ear pads of my older Grados. I've used these every workday since I bought them from 8am to 5-6pm and they're still in great condition.

P sure that's all Bluetooth headsets but Windows 10 dev builds and Windows 11 improves on this.

Just a heads up, the XM3's and XM4's are known to have crackling/static noise issues if worn for a long time in a warm environment due to its new design. I bought the XM4's refurbished from secondipity a while back and experienced this issue (the headphones themselves looked and functioned brand new though), so I returned them after reading online about it. They should be good the first year or so, but you may encounter this issue later on.

If you don't wear these headphones for a long period of time nor live in a very warm environment, then you should be fine and these are probably a great purchase.

I just purchased these on Amazon from the same seller

https://www.amazon.com/Sony-WH100...191&sr=8-4

The main reason: "Product works and looks like new. Backed by the 90-day Amazon Renewed Guarantee."

You're not going to get that with ebay and being a refurbished/renewed item it is reassuring.

Can't you just use an external mic? That's what I'm thinking of doing with these

I should add, the main difference between the XM3 and XM4 for me is that the XM3 provides the apx and apx HD codecs.

The ones on eBay have a 2 year warranty. They are going to be the same exact stock if it's the same seller.

YMMV on buying refurbished/used/pre-owned headphones. Not meant to be racist in any shape or form but I once bought a second hand pair of Bose QC25s off this Indian guy for super cheap like $60. Looked to be in amazing shape and works well but it took several weeks for that curry smell to dissipate. If you haven't dealt with curry lingering on everything you have no idea how difficult it is to remove it. Alcohol swabbing the whole thing didn't do much. Just had to wait it out

The XM3s on eBay are certified refurbished and come with a 2 year warranty, so it's way better to buy them from eBay, not Amazon.[/quote]

I asked Secondipity what their warranty was and they responded 60 days earlier today. Amazon has always been helpful to me when I ran into a bad situation with a 3rd party seller. I can't say the same for ebay and certainly not beyond 30 days. I'll stand by my remarks and to each his own in what you want to believe.
