The official tablet (and other useless electronics) thread!

Weird, I just spent more money on headphones than I ever expected to.

Picked up a set of Sony WH-1000XM2's last night.  After going back and forth a million times between the QC35's and these in-store, I liked these better.  Couldn't really tell a difference between the noise cancellation (the Sony's seem to have a REALLY faint white noise with it on, which I actually sorta liked).  Went with the Sony's because they had two features I liked better: 1) a dedicated button to switch between noise cancellation on/off/ambient (couldn't find that on the Bose), and 2) a feature where you can just hold your hand over the right ear and the music will turn down and noise cancellation to ambient if you need to briefly speak with someone.  Also, the touch controls were nice.

There were a bunch of other features I didn't think I'd ever use (and my wife definitely won't).  I know Bose is usually the go-to, but at least check out some of the comparos with the Sony's.
