The 1More Sonoflow headphones deliver a very good overall sound quality and are suitable for long usage with their high comfort score. They also offer a longer battery life which is ideal for extended listening sessions. However, they have a larger form factor and are less portable compared to the compact Sony WF1000XM3 earbuds. The Sonys provide a slightly better soundstage, higher microphone quality which is beneficial for calls and meetings, and feature active noise cancelling, which is great for travel and noisy environments. If budget is a primary concern and you favor over-ear comfort along with sound quality for music, the 1More Sonoflow might be the better choice. Conversely, if you need premium features like active noise cancelling, superior mic quality, and a more portable design for diverse use, including travel and calls, the Sony WF1000XM3 would be more suitable, provided you're willing to spend more.

"The SonoFlow is cheap and fun, without going too far into being overly warm or annoyingly grating, or sharp sounding. The ANC features are lovely with strong app integration and excellent battery life."

Sound Guys
Lily Katz | November 2022
"Wireless earbuds are a dime a dozen, and the Sony WF-1000XM3 makes it easy to justify the cost. The design and comfort are good, and the connection strength is consistent. While the lack of aptX or LDAC support is a big drawback, DSEE HX processing improves low-quality audio files. If you want stylish active noise canceling (ANC) earbuds, the WF-1000XM3 needs to be at the top of your list."
