QuestionDo these work with Google Home, Amazon Alexa, Apple Home like the XM5? What about Environmental Noise Control? Microphone Noise cancelling?
Asked 5 months ago by Charlie.
- Answer Thank you for contacting Sony, Charlie. We can confirm that the WH-1000XM6 does integrate fully with popular smart assistants. You can activate Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa, allowing you to control your music, get notifications, and perform other tasks hands-free. While the headphones do not directly integrate with the Apple Home ecosystem for device control, they pair seamlessly with Apple devices via Bluetooth. Regarding the microphone features, the WH-1000XM6 utilizes our advanced Precise Voice Pickup Technology. This technology uses multiple microphones and advanced audio signal processing to achieve both Environmental Noise Control (ENC) and Microphone Noise Cancelling. This ensures that your voice is isolated and crystal clear during calls, effectively suppressing background noise like wind, traffic, or office chatter for the person on the other end. We appreciate your interest in Sony products. Should you require any further assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out for support here: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=headphones Best regards, Gus, Sony North America Customer Support

This question was asked about the related product: Sony - WH-1000XM6- Best Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones - Black
- Answer Hi Esro, The Sony WH-1000XM6 Wireless Noise-Canceling Headphones are not rated for water or sweat resistance and do not have an official IP rating. They are premium over-ear headphones primarily designed for travel, office, and daily listening, and are not intended for heavy exercise or use in rain or snow. To prevent damage or malfunction, we strongly advise avoiding direct contact with moisture, including heavy perspiration, as water or foreign matter entering the headset can cause internal burnout or failure. Thanks for choosing Sony. Best regards, Eliab

QuestionWhen bluetooth'd to my PC, it only allows DVD quality at 48000 HZ. Computer has bluetooth 5.3 I figured I would get the "lossless" audio quality sent by my pc to these and benefit from the tech available. My Arctis nova pro accepts 96000Hz. What gives?

- Answer Hi Chris, Thanks for reaching out with your question about the WH-1000XM6 headphones! We can certainly assist you with that. The quality of the sound is determined by the codec used for the connection. Try to check the codec and change it, if possible, to improve the sound quality. It is possible to get 96 kHz using the LDAC codec. We hope this helps. Thanks for considering Sony products! Best regards, Estefany

Questionhow well do these pair with a ps5?
Asked 11 months ago by elitegamer.
This question was asked about the related product: Sony - WH-1000XM6- Best Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones - Black
- Answer Hi gamerguy, thank you for reaching out regarding the compatibility of our WH-1000XM6 headphones with the PS5. The WH-1000XM6 headphones are designed with advanced Bluetooth technology for superior audio quality and noise cancellation. However, the PlayStation 5 does not natively support direct Bluetooth audio connections with standard Bluetooth headphones, including the WH-1000XM6. To connect them with your PS5 we recommend to use the included 3.5mm audio cable with the DualSense wireless controller. But, if a wireless connection is preferred, you would need to use a compatible third-party USB Bluetooth audio adapter. This adapter plugs into a USB port on your PS5 and allows you to pair your WH-1000XM6 headphones wirelessly to the console via the adapter. For additional details, we encourage you to visit the following link. https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2984/v1/en/contents/TP1001856898.html Thanks for considering Sony products and we sincerely hope this information is helpful to you. Best regards, Stephanie
