we've made in-depth videos of the sony
wh 1000x m2 and the MDR 1000x before but
this video is different here are 6
hidden features you didn't know existed
number one so we know that the WH has
great noise canceling but did you know
that in the intensity slider you have
the option to cancel out wind noise only
very useful if you're living in a cycle
friendly country like the Netherlands
number two this feature is a little
easier to find on the newer headphones
but did you know that the MDR 1000X
can do this as well? I'm referring of
course to the noise canceling optimizer
simply long-press the noise canceling
button when not in Google assistant mode
and it will tune your noise canceling to
adjust for any differences in hair,
glasses or even broken bones. if you've
bought the WH 1000XM2 before July 2018
and you haven't updated it? go do it
right away.
Sony plays catch-up with its main rival
in this space the Bose QC35ii and now
supports google assistant. after you've
downloaded the update, install it and
then go to the headphones app and remap
the noise canceling or ambient button to
Google assistant, that's it!
now if you're like me you're probably
asking what's with the update? I can just
pull up Google Assistant on my phone. but this is different, it's much more than just
issuing commands. you can press and hold
to issue a voice command, you can press
once to read out a notification, and you
can press twice to cancel the voice
command. and now you can have Google read
out all your messages. 'Kevin says "nothing,
just chilling. massaging my beard"' and
even respond to some of them using your
voice, which is very convenient. it's very
easy to use and it's another place where
Google can spy.. I mean enrich our lives
and make them better.
number four you can make the headphones
stand without a stand. hey, we didn't say
all the features would be useful okay.
please don't unsubscribe ;) number five
even though you can check the battery
level in the app, you may not always have
that luxury. here's a quicker way to
check how much remaining battery you
have; press the power button once and
you'll have a voice guidance telling you
how much battery you have left. but
you can also use those annoying LEDs we
talked about when you're not wearing the
headset. three blinks means there's high
amount of battery left, two for medium
and one means low. and finally number six,
do you also find that the phone call
quality sucks on the WH 1000XM2? - I
think Sony knows that - and that's why
they've provided a feature so that you
can move your phone call from your
headphones to your phone. so here are the
steps on how to do that, number one
receive the call on your headset.
number two struggle for a few seconds as
no one hears what you're saying. step 3
hold your finger to the touch sensitive
area so that the call device is switched
from the headphones to your smart
phone. step number four the most
important step, pretend that you were in
a noisy area and that the poor quality
had nothing to do with your expensive
headphones.
you've been awesome and we've been DHRME
