              There main competitor is Apple's Bose for the ANC ones.

                  Wonder why they dropped support for Qualcomm aptx hd? The chipset don't support it or to minimise licensing fees? At least they still support their own high resolution audio codec ldac

                      Anonymous, 07 Aug 2020Better and cheaper than what Apple plans to offer. Actually sony isn't apple direct competitor for headphones, sony direct competitor would be sennheiser, bower and Wilkins, akg (now owned by Samsung), beyerdynamics, Audio technica etc.

                            Finally worthy upgrade

                            I love the way Sony keeps it simple with the same cloak but internal upgrades at least if not the Q1 chipset
