Can anyone say more about the sound quality, noise cancelling? Compared to other headphones, perhaps the 1000XM3? I can't find anything online.

Hello, my German is rather bad, so here's my answer in English :

The advantages of the WH-1000XM3 (XM3):

- Its hard shell protective case compared to the cheap HO3 pouch;
- It can fold flat and more compact than the HO3;
- Its superior build quality compared to the HO3, especially the softer leathers;
- Its ANC is better than that of the HO3, although only by a slight margin; and
- It has a warmer, darker sound (more pronounced bass and slightly recessed mids), better imaging and wider soundstage than HO3.

The advantages of H.ear On 3 (HO3):

- Its lower price (and therefore its better value for money) compared to the XM3;
- Lighter and more comfortable than the XM3 (more balanced weight distribution between the headband and the earphones, better clamping force, more spacious earcups thanks to thicker padding);
- Its look, simultaneously more funky thanks to its various colors and more sober in overall design than the XM3; and
- It has a less distant sound than the XM3, much more energetic and with increased resolution, without losing balance (it reminds a lot of the sound of ATH-M50XBT from Audio Technica, which is a very, very good thing).
