Model overview based on user reviews  
The Philips Fidelio X3 headphones are praised for their reference sound quality and high-quality build, making them an excellent choice for audiophiles and home studio use. Users appreciate the neutral and detailed audio performance, with deep bass, clear mids, and smooth highs, although some note a lack of sub-bass for more aggressive music genres. The headphones are comfortable, featuring a self-adjusting headband and velour ear cushions, and they fit snugly. While the price is noted as a con, many users feel the sound quality justifies the cost. Overall, the Fidelio X3 offers a balanced sound and premium design, ideal for those seeking a high-fidelity listening experience.

The acquisition turned out to be unplanned, but as time shows, it was very necessary and timely. There is no better option for a home studio.
What I like most about them is their reference sound and high-quality build. This is exactly the golden mean that many other models cannot boast of.
One of those headphone models that has no downsides as such.

Premium materials and workmanship

Philips Fidelio X3 is a worthy continuation of the legendary Fidelio series, started by the X2. These premium headphones not only maintain the high standards of their predecessor, but also bring a number of improvements. Philips has focused on enhancing comfort: the ear pads are covered in velor, the comfortable self-adjusting headband is covered in Kvadrat fabric, and the outer fabric trim of the ear cups gives the impression of audiophile headphones costing several thousand dollars. It's no wonder that the X3 won the Best Design Award at the Red Dot Awards.

Honest neutral sound

The audio performance of the Philips Fidelio X3 is neutral and detailed. The bass is deep, but not overloaded, the mids are clear and clean, and the highs do not suffer from excessive harshness. The headphones are ideal for users who value smooth, uncolored sound with high detail and a wide soundstage. When listening to jazz or orchestral music, it feels like you can pinpoint the placement of the instruments.

Where did the bass go?

Compared to the previous Fidelio X2 model, the X3 has lost the sub-bass that adds weight to dance music. Frequencies below 40–50 Hz are weakly expressed, which is why aggressive genres sound less expressive. The X3s require a high-quality audio source and amplification to reach their full potential, which can be inconvenient for users who plan to listen to the headphones on the go. Otherwise, these are comfortable headphones with honest sound, thoughtful ergonomics and a detachable cable.
